  • Excuses, introspection, and "saving"

    Jump

  • No I don't. I remember it was said. But I may have misremembered, it may have been radios broadcasting American football. And a black revolutionary was crestfallen that it was killing revolutionary spirit in the prison he was in. I may be getting mixed up.

  • Berlin power cut: Activist group says it was behind fire that cut electricity supply - BBC News

    Jump

  • I mean, they're not wrong. It is a communist dictatorship. A damn awesome one too, it just revolutionized electrical power. That's what happens when communists have control of a country.

  • Is this the end

    Jump

  • I hate to say it... but if it is, it's freeing. Like I can do anything and sweet death is finally coming for me, as the bourgeoisie suffer even if I suffer with them.

  • Happy New Year's Day!

    Jump

  • I have no faith for anyone around me. People don't read, they don't learn, they don't understand, they're reactionary. I'm supposed to organize with them? When they want me and mine dead and have killed children for being too disabled or too queer? Maybe when they're guaranteed food, housing, and Healthcare they'll have the mental bandwidth to be less reactionary. But it's hard not to just want everything to be destroyed.

  • Are Ableism and Ageism the least challenged bigotries in western society?

    Jump

  • Probably not. They're challenged way less than they should be, yeah, but I think there may be other things we've yet to realize are unchallenged bigotries. Things that are innocuous now but obvious 100 years from now. Progress never stops, we're going to be seen as conservative bigots by the standards of the next century* and that's a good thing.

    *provided humanity survives.

  • What's the Marxist position on Psychopathy and "ontologically evil" people in general?

    Jump

  • The position on "psychopathy" is underdeveloped. Understanding of those with ASPD and other cluster-bs is in its infancy. You do not require a mental illness to be a selfish asshole, that passes for normal these days.

  • I have...complex feelings about women activists who weren't treated well during revolutions

    Jump

  • We're also not at the end of history. Even the most progressive of us are going to look reactionary 100 years from now.

  • I have...complex feelings about women activists who weren't treated well during revolutions

    Jump

  • You have BPD just as I do. I feel something similar is happening now where there is still an ableism problem in ML circles but that doesn't mean I would denounce ML as a whole even if many of its adherents treat us like shit.

  • Record Numbers of Younger Women Want to Leave the U.S.

    Jump

  • I'm mentally disabled. I'm considered unfit to work even in the US. I doubt anyone wants me and I'll probably die when the country collapses. I know that as China develops that it will relax immigration because it'll become less of a problem as it approaches communism and produces enough to sustain itself even with immigrants. Maybe I'll get lucky.

  • Record Numbers of Younger Women Want to Leave the U.S.

    Jump

  • Then where should we go? Immigration to good countries is difficult for many of us.

  • Remember to never feel lesser than anybody else ❤️

    Jump

  • I know that intellectually. But deprogramming myself of the feeling isn't easy. Especially since I do constantly wish I was capable of things denied of me by disability and circumstance.

  • China unveils power of thorium reactor for world’s largest cargo ship

    Jump

  • Or cargo, I believe.

  • China unveils power of thorium reactor for world’s largest cargo ship

    Jump

  • "You hear about the computer in China's R&D?"

    "The bismuth, the carbon nanotube ternary, or the fucking analog?"

  • NSFW

    Vent: I hate sex industry apologia so so much

    Jump

  • Sex is much better when the livelihoods of the people involved aren't contingent on their ability to provide it or how well they can provide it.

    I feel the same way about art.

  • NSFW

    Russian "leftist" mad that the USSR was based, actually

    Jump

  • I have several Russian friends who are a bit like this. As an American I feel scared trying to correct them because, y'know, Americans have a reputation for being invasive and assuming they know better than anyone, even if what's correct is correct.

  • Venezuela Invites International Brigade to Defend Socialism

    Jump

  • Well that's something to think about. How would one from the US get to Venezuela?

  • I'm built different [incorrectly]

    Jump

  • Humans are communal. Pack animals. So it feels so alienating to have traits people hate. That's probably why I became a communist too. And at times I feel like I'm trying to fight for people who hate me. Is that what I'm supposed to tell LGBT people at Burkina, for example? To fight for people who legally persecute them? It's the right call, the enemy is the west. But it's demoralizing when the good guys hate you, makes you feel like education and acceptance is a long ways away. I'm also trans and I think I have ADHD and BPD as well. And I'm never sure if I could even hold a job. Makes me feel I was born way too early, like I belong in the future. Maybe ask yourself, do you have friends here? Are you friends with those who similarly struggle with BPD? Perhaps you would never have met them if not for that. It's a fucked up thing to think about, oppression bringing people together who would otherwise never meet, whose reason for meeting is dependant on oppression that should never have happened. Like how many good people are descended from bad parents or from genociders. We're all byproducts of bad shit. But we're here, in this time and place. I'm happy I have my friends and can look at the world from the perspective of the "useless trash".

  • Problematic language resurging

    Jump

  • I agree with you. I think the r-word is used in the latter context.

  • Problematic language resurging

    Jump

  • I've seen people claim that they're reclaiming the r-slur because they're disabled. They remind me of that black white supremacist from the movie Django Unchained. He used the n-word in a racist context that's totally different from how black people normally use it and identically to how racists use it.
