The middle-class and all its starter homes and stable credit sure stopped being politically expedient pretty quickly.

I've said it before but there's a reason the US stopped subsidizing the imagery of upward mobility and really got down to dismantling labor protections after the great socialist enemy of the USSR collapsed.

I don't really have an articulated reaction to Rojava being rolled over besides resigned anger. Basically the only way to keep from being stomped on by the current geopolitical structure is to have nuclear retaliatory capability. The US will side with fascism to destroy leftism, same as it ever was, and the Russian Federation really wants to position itself as a global deal-broker for conflict. It didn't work out in Korea but this is ideal for them.

Grace Jones bodying a dozen SWAT cops with a revolving riot gun with mechanical precision.

"Hey baby, what's up?"
"High-speed trading algorithms are just massive computer systems shouting at each other until extremely specific conditions are met and then starting over again a second later. Also, it's really easy to shoplift grenades from the government."

Part of capitalism is making empathy painful. Every panhandler or crowdfunding link hurts. You can't help everyone, much less save them. It's a system that makes you close yourself off, to try to stop it all from burning right through you.

Makes you wonder about all those bank robbery scenes in westerns, doesn't it? Towns full of people who worked mines, ranch hands, many of which were chicano or freedmen, with one or two banks running everything, often as organs of a company town. Would have been even easier back then. Didn't even have feds, back then.

Bank robbers used to burn debt documentation and it's absolutely wild to me that you could just do that in the 1920-30s.

And if someone acknowledging that politics will diverge at a certain point in your scenario playing out wounds you, then is this recurring event everyone else's problem? Or is it yours?

If you can't handle anarchism in a similar framework then how is anyone supposed to pretend that your endgame isn't the use of the state with zero criticism?

Here's a useful though experiment. I am by no means a pacifist and I think that's probably very clear in general. Pacifism is a very important role to have around, though. Pacifists are important because they are constantly criticizing the exercising of force, whether right or wrong in a given instance, or rather, whether or not there's a better alternative.

How am I supposed to take all the ACABs in the profiles of people who can't deal with the basic linguistic root of the word "authority" seriously?

new shirt idea per recent shitposting

Robert O'Rourke held one of his gun control PR fests at Kent State and said the Kent State massacre is why we need civilian gun control, if you're wondering how liberalism is doing.

Learning about the MIT Media Lab and it rules how society is run by galaxy-brained techno-mutants and finance ghouls who are both completely removed from any inkling of material reality. Most of this is just a money-laundering scheme anyway.

blocking me for being "wrong" and "obnoxious" and "pressing my face up against your window at night" is basically stalinism-
