I got banned from a whole community today because I stood up for real leftist values against a violent Maoist and their revisionist propaganda. There’s too much hate and violence flying around the fediverse. I came here to find like minded people and all I find are the same assholes wearing different colored shirts.

Why had we been doing all this gaining of knowledge in college all this time?
So someone with the wealth and power to act on that knowledge can use it to fuck over mankind for more wealth and power.

Marx was close to the truth on that one, but he failed to grasp the true nature of such entities.

I get where you’re coming from but I do feel the need to point out that you’re ascribing held values to an ideology. It’s not a person, it can’t value anything. As an ideology it is valuable to people whose values prioritize self-enablement at all costs.
- Comment on Spooooookyyyyy Scaaaaaaaarrryyyy 2 weeks ago:
Capitalism doesn’t value anything. It is the codification of one of several ways of life we can only understand by observing human beings whose behavior is antithetical to the survival and advancement of our species. It is an evolutionary and ideological dead end, the same as the genetic lineage of any creature born with the compulsion to commit suicide from birth. People can choose to do better so it’s not a matter of genocide to do away with it. It’s ideocide. All instances of this system of thought must be done away with, and future generations warned about the consequences of ever allowing it to regain a foothold in the noosphere.

Living the dream!
- Comment on Spooooookyyyyy Scaaaaaaaarrryyyy 2 weeks ago:
That behavior is encouraged, and the circumstances that give rise to it cultivated, by people who subscribe to that worldview because it justifies their choices to throw the many under the bus for the desires (not needs but mere desires) of the few.
It all comes back to exploitation, and whatever it takes to sustain it.

That has not been my experience. Nobody is demanding that of me.

Imagine living in a world where your value as a person isn’t tied to how physically exploitable you are.

no negative outcomes associated with that distinction
- Comment on Voices 3 weeks ago:
The questions are rhetorical. My point is that being weird isn’t necessarily a bad thing. In those cases the only “problem” is that they were born into a society that doesn’t understand them, or treats them as sick/evil/dangerous.
- Comment on Voices 3 weeks ago:
Sure, but how do you determine if a thought is “intrusive” or just part of the normal workings of that mind? How do you tell psychosis apart from normalcy if there’s no negative outcomes associated with that distinction? Is it psychosis or just the hallmark of a different kind of person?

hide their shitty opinions behind “jokes” that aren’t jokes until someone calls them on their shit.
Aka “Shrodinger’s Asshole”
- Comment on Voices 3 weeks ago:
I’d say it’s only a disorder if it leads to negative outcomes (such as getting in trouble with the law or self harm). Otherwise that’s just the modality of your consciousness.

In psychology we call that “anchor and adjust”!
- Comment on StarFox (N64 Remake) Gameplay Reveal 3 weeks ago:
Ugh, it’s Star Fox 64. I loved it as a kid because it was new and cutting edge and hey rumble pack… but the tone of the SNES original, the music, the character art, they were better than Star Fox 64’s in retrospect.
On top of that, they tried to make Fox look like a realistic fox with that goofy cartoon pattern and mohawk, and it’s just not working for me. The mohawk never worked for me and now it looks even sillier.
It’s a good thing I already laid Nintendo to rest in my heart or seeing this might have hurt a little.

I just like confronting old testament bible-thumping chuds with this scripture. I don’t care nearly as much about the provenance of the stories as I do about the fragile toxic masculinity of religious men.

Okay but that comment isn’t a long-winded ramble and you didn’t mention that in your previous comment, only the emoji. Weird antisocial behavior on your part.
