You're right in the sense that the internet let's you broadcast a lot of information really fast. This is a really big inconvenience for genocidal scumbags who the world hates.

Naturally instead of stopping the murders we're returning to moral panic about porno and people seeing bad stuff. The fact that we've got mercenaries and idf veteran chilling out in our societies doesn't seem to cause any significant moral panic, for some reason.

Overall my mood is quite good. I've learned a couple new skills in case I find anyone who'd like me to share them. I'm quite surprised the situation is this much better than I had anticipated an it's made me re-examine my own understanding of the world. Including sources I may have had neglected, due to unnoticed biases.

What if it wasn't you being treated this way, but you saw these people treating somebody else the same way they've been treating you. How would you feel about them? Chances are they have done this many times, to many people. They are the consistent problem in that equation, not you. Nobody they've interacted with, in such a way, likes them. A healthy society would collectively correct anyone making fun of you in public, but we're not living in a healthy society.

There's something relevant, to put it in contrast of a more serious socialist establishment, quoting Xi: "The victory of the Long March teaches us that: with faith in our hearts, we have strength in our steps; without unbreakable ideals and beliefs, and without the strong support of lofty ideals and beliefs, it would be unimaginable to achieve the victory of the Long March."

The Deprograms collective ambition is to be poster boys, for westerners and western influenced audiences. There is basically 0 revolutionary potential in the west. Outside of isolated and largely abandoned inner groups, at least that's what the facts tell me. I suppose I used to be rather naive myself and years ago I would think people would have my back, but in retrospect I was extremely gullible, in truth majority of Westerners don't care about any of us. They largely agree with me and know they can't change it, so there's nothing lofty to grasp upon. I can guarantee you come economic hardship a large part of these people will disappear at best or turn on you at the worst. You can never trust a petite bourgeoisie. Collaborate with them when you can squeeze something out of them, but it's all transactional and reversable.

I guess this is a much better marketing pitch than Synthetic Musk, based on formulas that were made from animals.

That's right, you smell like beaver's butt. That's You.

These people are a lost cause, if they remain centrists and don't bend their knee to the right I'm willing to consider that an astounding achievement, for them.

When you go to school (or back in my day) they would literally teach you that: in order to perform analysis a good rule of thumb is by examining why you could be wrong, all the evidence against you. That's where you start. For a centrist to be able to do this it's the equivalent of building a rocket an flying to the moon, it's possible, but they will almost certainly fail to do it alone.

One might think I am being too harsh, no I do not think so. These self-fashioned speakers of truth live in a lala land, where they're both the smartest most rational people and at the same time utterly incompetent.

I'm someone who's managed to keep myself alive for quite a long time despite having nobody to talk to in person. This is why I'd like to leave this message for anyone who might be completely alone, what keeps me alive is the thought that our world is ruled by the most cruel and despicable human beings who will stop at nothin to gain power - so i stay alive to spit in their face, out of spit. I have had every excuse to turn into a villain myself and I refuse. Not everybody is fortunate enough to make friends, but this is actually more common than it shown.

Comparison is a fool's game and everyone should do what's best for them, to a healthy degree. Some people will never have a community that loves them and that's okay, you're not broken just because of that. People who call you broken, simply for being excluded - as if it's always your fault , are not worth listening to. Humans are not herd animals and humans are not solitary animals, humans are humans, you make the choice.

Okay you're not going to believe this, but unironically looks fine to me.

Could be a lot more healthy and I don't eat meat anymore, but I suppose growing up in post-socialist collapse has desensitized me lol

When the victim is able to stand up for itself the US army starts losing their mind.

[–] Renin@hexbear.net 8 points 1 day ago

I take some solace in the fact that pretty much everyone is systematically conditioned to mask. That doesn't mean it's any easier, but it does make me feel less "broken" personally.

Basically don't feel bad for masking around people who don't deserve you anyways. Do not think you are being fake or weak when you mask, do it with intent to get ahead of people who don't deserve you. Eventually you will learn to distinguish effectively between someone who warrants your company and someone who deserves to be treated with the harsh coldness of winter.

This has nothing to do with the original post, but Avocado isn't really the problem, it's that it takes a lot of water to produce them and local communities get literally dried out by Imperialists, who love growing their avocados for profit.

Again, this is not a problem of eating an avocado, it's how they're currently being grown.

Ability to work on one's own mind with intent. If you want to be really banal about it.

That's what intelligence is to me. It's being alive, as oppose to just existing - which is to follow a stimuli, without question. And part of living is selectively choosing when to let yourself just be.

 

I'm talking in the context of mass movement (as opposed to inner party politics). People are very complex and it's unreasonable to expect everyone will be happy to share the room with one another. There's likely going to be a decent chunk of disagreements, but ultimately we have to some degree be able to tolerate disagreements. Right?

Some people don't have the privilege of accessing healthy development and end up with putrid personalities, doesn't mean you should be their friend, but as long as healthy boundaries are maintained I think we should be able to at least be able to cooperate. I've never expected to be embraced or understood, but please at least allow us contribute.

And besides If you judge those like us as your enemy, wouldn't you want to keep us closer, so you can eliminate us quickly? You'd have to deal with the problem either way.

 

If I didn't write this, someone else would have written it. If I didn't tell you that I can do whatever I want, someone else would have done it. If I didn't cheat, someone else would have cheated. If I wasn't breaking the rules someone else would have done it.

Don't tell me otherwise.

Don't tell me otherwise.

If I didn't post the memes, someone else would have.

Don't tell me what to do.

Don't tell me what to do.

If I didn't post this, someone else would have posted it.

 

I've had wishes to make the world a better place, but I would be lying if I said I've achieved anything I can be proud of. I often contemplate if I may have done more harm than good and the earnest conclusion is that it's been counter-productive. None of the people I've attempted to "turn" to the side of truth have really budged.

They always find:

  • an appealing narrative, different flavor of history, a less prickly voice etc.

I have to admit it can feel satisfying to have an "Ideological victory" over them, but what does it matter to me? I've come to realize that I'm chasing things I cannot possibly hope to accomplish and maybe it's time to land back on earth.

Just because I'm weak and alone doesn't make my contributions worthless. There's plenty of worthwhile things I can do, like documenting history, making knowledge more accessible, helping to pass the word around communities who need it the most. It's easy to become angry and justify inaction or even worse apathy - simply for being rejected, but I have to be better than that.

My mother once told me that she saw the horns of the devil over my head. There's probably a good reason for it and I've always wondered why, but I think I finally understand. It's the selfish-nature I've struggled to rid myself of, it's part of why I've been stuck in a lot of these pointless debates and why I've been ostracized, by many around me. Honestly? It was mostly justified and until my actions prove I'm a better person and they remain consistent, then so be it.

Once my actions prove me worthwhile to the cause I'm confident the people will find me as well. That's what I will continue to work on, until it sticks.

 

As Lenin said: "If you want to destroy a nation, destroy the thinking of it's youth."

I guess we will see if they're ready to handle the Gamer(tm). Oh here's a link

 

[Someone] = Stereotypical leftist adjacent person who (semi)frequents the mainstream web. Curious in this whole socialism thing, has very little theoretical knowledge.

Scenario: They've come to you complaining about the quality of their time online worsening and how they're looking for what they say is a "Open-Minded Community" They have already tried places like r/socialism and say: "They're way too snobby and book heavy."

You ask them what they think about socialism and they say: "Well I don't really know, but Zahran seems pretty cool, maybe it's possible to have a good version of it." "I know the Soviet Union failed, but given how tyrannical Stalin was, maybe it's because they had bad leaders."


What would be your approach be?

 

Cold Fusion. Makes a lot of energy oh yeah it does and so simple, so very simple. Our scientists, they're gonna make it, they'll make the best Cold Fusion generators for the whole country, nobody's gonna be able to compete with us. Everyone will come to me and say: "Please please can we have some cold fusion generators?" It will be the trade deal of the century, of will it?

 

I don't really know how to explain this to you, but if you're thinking this is a stupid crossover between Karl Marx, Chain-smoking Cat and Breaking bad, you'd be correct. Why is this is bad posting? What kind of question is that, where else would I put posters break bad?

In this video (from FPTV) Laith Marouf is joined by an anti-imperialist scholar Iker Suarez, in Madrid.

Where does the name Madrid come from? Does Spanish leadership actually give a damn about Palestine or is it a PR stunt, should Westerners continue their obsession with chasing clout as a means to attempt radical change?
