Please exercise Maximum Restraint. All that we have and more will be yours too. We even have a new Flotilla that will help you. ๐น How, you ask? Well, isn't someone a little doubter. Isn't someone a little freak who doesn't want me to enjoy this scrumptious labor time. Out of pure hate, too. Do you have any idea how fascist it is to judge me for my entertainment systems?
I stole it from a based homeless person [https://xcancel.com/commsurreallism/status/ https://xcancel.com/Inhumansoflate1/] and lost the link ๐ that's why it's actually good. Also, their Epstein files meltdown is a fascinating source of leads, despite some conjectures.

I'm sure everyone mentioned here wouldn't consider it, but if anyone is standoffish to or QRTs them I will hunt you immediately
5 star meme โญโญโญโญโญ
Yet when I called VR a gooning helmet, Lemmitors jumped down my neck and downvoted all my posts LOL
They hated you because you said the truth
5 star meme. Reminds me of this one too:
multiple IVs administered
Actually yes, people being crushed under inescapable debt should get to enjoy things sometimes.
Maybe westoids should stop taking the promise of a small share of imperial super profits as a bribe and do something about destroying your genocidal settler colonial society instead of just complaining and attempting reforms.
I hope sales and marketing isn't your career
I'd sooner kill myself than work in sales and marketing
It looks like Wall-E.
Hitler's ghost lives inside the Disney servers. Where do you think they got the idea?
The anti-woke crowd will love this lol
Aldous Huxley wrote a book about this in freaking 1932. Seriously, read the Brave New World
Huxley saw danger in nihilism and consumerism, then decided that Christianity โ one of the most disgusting and life-hating ideologies in the history of humanity โ was the solution.
Go read someone like Nietzsche who is actually intellectually honest.

IDK where to start with either of you, I need to explain the Epstein stuff on here first ffs. Read Losurdo
Hitler if he was born in Austria-Hungry
gotta tell ya, i've got some suspicions about that austria-hungary. what a "country" it was. gave the world hitler and the OG zionist, what was his name. herzl?
It's also not accidental that the banderites are consistently coming from territories that were in the A-H once, A-H supported Ukrainian nationalists so they would disrupt Poles organising with independence movements from other two partitions and who even managed to obstruct the A-H semblance of paliament.
i genuinely dont understand how mussolini wasnt born in at least some formerly austrian-held part of italy. but he wasnt. history glitched there.
More people are waking up with every evil thing this administration does.
Also the only metric that equals administration bad for some people is changing: Gas prices.
It isn't a problem with the admin alone, but the system itself. Imperialism is what runs the US Empire, be it dem or rep admin.
Yeh, but you gotta take it one step at a time with people who think politics doesn't affect them and are just becoming aware.
If you come at them too hard, they will get scared. I find it easier to point to the things the current admin is doing as an easy example of, "This is not ok."
Yep, but you have to take it further too, connect the dots. Just showing the first dot won't help when systemic change is the correct path, and that requires an all-encompassing view.
It also requires a person to change their worldview, which takes time. Don't forget to give people grace while they are exploring their biases.
(I am aware that gaining political sentience is very late at this time, but better late than never)
Yep, just that you have to give them somewhere to go. Planting seeds isn't enough, water and adequate sunlight need to be available and the soil has to be fertile.
I'm interested in this auto-masturbator VR thingy.
Bread and circuses
Idk if this is OC or not but goddamn it's on point and extremely relevant. Sometimes people forget the only reason the West can just get lost in consumerism and hedonism is because of the stolen resources and subjugation of people around the world. ๐ฅฒ
A fuck ton of us are paycheck to paycheck looking for any outlet to soothe our broken minds and bodies. I really hate this generalist talk about the us right now when so many of us are prisoners, glorified indentured servants. I literally don't know how I'm going to feed myself for a couple of weeks right now. I fear ice just because I'm brown, especially here in the south.
I had no say in this, I voted, I've protested, I've tried changing minds. Keep in mind that a large portion of us are the same.
White USAmericans are settlers and part of bourgeois society designed to exploit the rest of the world for their comfort and every time leftists try to organize them, they end up siding with imperial interests and taking the bribe instead of standing with people of color and the internal colonies. This message is for them and they need to hear it.

Agreed
If it doesn't apply to you it isn't talking about you. It's about the "if Trump weren't here we'd be in brunch" kinda people.
This. Also relaxation, distraction and "hedonism" to a certain extent are necessary for people to resist at all. You cannot resist if you are completely burnt out from working, organizing and stressing about the current situation. After all we are human and our needs don't always follow moral boundaries.
