Getting really tired of Eurotrash acting like they didn’t depend on US imperialism to have their standard of living today, and pretending that they’ve never heard of the Black Panthers. Did COVID rot your brains? You forget Minneapolis?

I mean, that same constitution has protected slavery for the past 150 years. That’s a problem; has been for a lil while. Why is it a dictatorship at this point and not like, the Patriot Act?
- Comment on Are Americans Actually Idiots? 1 week ago:
I run into Euros all the time who think colonialism is over and everyone is forgiven because global south countries can make deals with Euro companies to destroy their land at the expense of their people instead of being invaded literally to destroy their land at the expense of their people (most of the time, of course). People in imperial metropoles are just more likely to require delusion to make sense of a world where they benefit from cruelty without being a bad person.
Many of the tactics we have to fight settler-colonial imperialism has come from colonized and marginalized people in the United States; liberals conveniently forget they exist because this fact challenges the inevitability of their way of life.

I know, it literally broke all of your brains to think that sex and gender are something that results from culture. It literally didn’t make sense in your gooner brain to think about why a certain word or action carries gendered meaning. Your comment history is so fucking cringe when you are literally one of the dumbass liberals who fall for conservative shit. Unreal.

Wow, you seriously didn’t get it and then wrote a smug paragraph about how you do get it and then say that you didn’t get it. I dont care if you’re pissed that this is wrong, it is and you dummies are going to admit it in five years when you see the results of this. Fuckin hell dude.

Incredible how many men online I meet who confidently explain shit to me they don’t know about. Even if what you’re saying is correct, which would be irrelevant as that is not how it’s interpreted in the comments, could you explain why you think that patriarchy is seperate from your construction of children’s deference to their father? You fucking people man, seriously.

I’m sorry that you live in a world where things are related to other things and you can’t just think what you want without responsibility, it does suck. What is demeaning about this position? It’s not on behalf of “subs” and of course even if it was, how do we gender subs in our culture? I know most people aren’t too stupid to understand the connection, so I think it’s safe to assume you’re just mad about not being a good person just because you make fun of billionaires and their supporters.
- Comment on Pretty much it. 2 weeks ago:
Once again associating sexual submissiveness with immorality and stupidity. Y’all really just can’t say they’re bad people for who they are for some reason, it’s always about reaffirming attacks on other groups. It’s misogynistic, it’s queerphobic, and it says so little about what the actual problem is.

- Comment on Fascism bad. 3 weeks ago:
I can’t tell if you’re joking, or if you actually meant to suggest that liberalism in the US – the most violent and destructive ideological hegemony in human history – could be socialism in a trenchcoat because some liberals sleep better with welfare liberal policies as opposed to the more honest and open genocide.
You know socialism was already popular in the US, right? For fifty years before WW2 it gained traction and its advocates successfully clawed away concessional labour rights and social-welfare programs. Y’know what happened? It did improve the conditions for workers in the US; and the institutions of white supremacy and patriarchy effectively disarmed its popularity once privileged classes got theirs. You’re claiming to be a communist of some sort, yet have neglected a material analysis of this history. They will reward people who subscribe to liberalism with better material security, and we know it works very well.
Liberals in the US believe what they believe because they correctly identify that so long as this system exists, they will be guaranteed something above any colonized people. They aren’t fucking stupid, they don’t have to have theoretical language to apply intuitive knowledge on their position in an empire. Liberalism is a result of their position in that society, not some form of victimization that compromises some innate moral purity.
When I say they suffer, it’s because of the fundamental ways in which a person who subscribes to that system must sever their connection to humanity and the world to maintain their comfort. It isn’t because they’re powerless.
- Comment on Fascism bad. 3 weeks ago:
Which is itself a form of suffering, imagine the humanity they miss out on and what you’d be without it. Liberalism and fascism are ideologies that subsist on the concept that there is an imaginary amount of violence that can be inflicted outward to relieve internal suffering.

- Comment on Why are americans taking health advice from a former heroin addict ? 2 months ago:
I’ve gone zero days since the 2024 election without seeing a liberal target fascists with insults that are oriented toward vulnerable groups. Jokes about old people being valueless, queer people being weak and deceptive, fatness as a sign of poor moral character. People who make these jokes also incomprehensibly claim that they challenge fascism fundamentally and not only when it comes for them.
This man is going to be singlehandedly responsible for an incalculable number of deaths (many of which will be addicts who are disproportionately excluded from access to medical treatmen) and he is in the position to do so by capitulating to an infamous pedophile, rapist, and failed business man. What kind of person would take the opportunity to assert that addicts aren’t to be trusted when talking about a man who is already RFK Jr.?

Wow, a whole unionized and competent studio now free to pursue internally chosen productions? I sure hope they don’t get some of those “Canadian Heritage” media subsidies. Seriously though this is the shit the state should be funding, it’d be a shame to have this kind of resource squandered.
- Comment on Indie Game Awards Disqualifies Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 Due To Gen AI Usage 3 months ago:
I mean, I’ll never give it a shot to play. It’s too long, I have a job, and I have games I want to play more that will certainly be more. I never played this game, as I said it’s not even remotely my taste. That’s also why I need to have someone explain what makes it supposedly good for what it is.
Most of these remarks are circular though, “it’s good because it’s good/I liked it.” Which is fine, but doesn’t really speak to the game. Gameplay seems to be where you’re better at articulating what’s actually good here. I don’t know this genre, so it’s exceptional that there is a combination of active and passive combat tied to the player’s experience? This is something exclusive or executed in a notable way here, or it’s just something that’s been done before that you feel is elevated because you like the story production?

I’m actually curious to why this is. It is completely outside of my taste and people keep saying. What makes it exceptional?

- Comment on Greed is Destroying the World - Drew Gooden 3 months ago:
“It used to be that people would get rich enough to affect their own nation… .” When? Where? There has never been a world where borders are a real thing that insulates one state from another (I assume you mean state, “nation” as the imaginary common identity makes even less sense). This is not a matter of a few individuals making this system function poorly, the purpose of this system is to generate wealth for a privileged few.
European imperialism/settler-colonialism and the capitalism that emerged through it has always functioned this way. It was funded by individuals with systemic privilege that afforded exceptional wealth and was realized through the exploitation of poor Europeans disadvantaged in those societies and the genocide of indigenous peoples all over the world.Thousands and thousands of nations were targeted for genocide by people who would never even step foot on the same continent as them. Wealth concentration may have improved the conditions for settlers in some places, but that wasn’t for the betterment of the state or nation or whatever you have imagined here. Workers and farmers with relatively high material security and wealth were allowed that level of power because it maintained a racialized and gendered hierarchy that was necessary to effectively carry out the violent extraction of wealth for the most privileged in society. That was in no way universal; there hasn’t been centuries of civil recognition and labour rights movements because most people flourished under this system.
There was no break in how this society was organised that allowed these exceptionally naughty billionaires to exist, that amount of wealth concentration is not new and is only possible through a system that devalues life.
I wonder if anyone else has made the observation that a global revolution is necessary to prevent capitalism from killing as much as it desires… 🤔
