Cimbazarov

I also cant help using that term. It feels like not using it just obscures what socialism truly is

How did you find my brunch club's reading list?

Elon Musk Forms a New Political Party to Challenge Trump and the Republicans

Say what you will about but at least when he has an idea, he goes all out even if its the dumbest idea ever conceived

Western capitalism needs an exploitable underclass of workers in order to preserve itself. Ive been wondering how Trump was going to deal with this contradictiom sharpening. This is actually the only hope I have of US not going full-on nazi death camps because the immigrant proletariat is more essential for capital to function unlike the jews/communists/romani/trans/queer in Nazi Germany.

The educated people in the west dont really have anywhere to go. Most people have China anti-authoritarian brain worms plus casual racism so I dont see that being a major hub for them. I think about the bourgeois intellectuals like Timothy Snyder who went to fucking Canada of all places to escape fascism. But I get it when youre analysis of fascism is all about aesthetics and ignoring the link between liberalism and fascism.

Thats not to say China or the global south are doomed, as they will just educate and cultivate their own populations. Its just the masses of the global north that will suffer.

I think games have two functions: genuine entertainment and escaping alienation. I had the realization maybe a year ago that my main motivation for playing games has been the latter, and I'd speculate that alot of other people are like that as well. I just don't find games entertaining anymore.

Our society is held together by ductape and treats ( )

So at what point do we just say fuck it

As Lenin said, "A democratic republic is the best possible political shell for capitalism"

It won't happen because has a short attention span. He's only capable of impulse decisions that have immediate consequences like buying twitter

Any democrat who doesnt try to blow up the congress to stop this bill is complicit in it. Voting no is not enough.

I hope one day they all suffer as much as the masses that will suffer when their healthcare is repealed

Alot of people dont realize almost all the good things we have today (worker's rights, weekends, severance etc.) are from workers organizing and dying while fighting for these rights. The government gave concessions because of this and through alot of propaganda and union leaders being traitors, they have distorted this past so that the common person remains passive and even antagonistic to better working conditions

I felt the same vibe when european soc dems were rebuking Macron for going after LePen for corruption or whatever it was. Like if she's actually fascist, you dont decide to play electoralism with them. Doesnt help that sucks

Edit: I find the top comment so revealing of the liberal consciousness:

I mean for one huge reason among many others, there is no legal mechanism to do what you are suggesting.

It’s like asking why I can’t make my iPhone eat a hamburger. It has neither the programming nor the physical characteristics necessary for it to perform that action.

They see the laws of the US as material things, like the laws of physics. They dont even consider the millions of times Republicans/Trump/Billionaires/Corporations ignore and violate the laws with no repercussions. They are living in a fantasy world
