I mean, Lemmy itself was created by Communists if I’m correct

That sounds like something Heinlein would write during his earlier days. I completely agree with both the argument and reasoning, even tho he turned anti-Communist and insane before he wrote that.

I was always scared of becoming homeless when I was a kid. It motivates people to work hard: the beatings will continue until morale improves.

There’s no logical objection for it, but it goes against the interests of landlords, real estate managers, and other people who see housing as a financial investment rather than a human right. If we want to give people homes to live in that they will not be deprived of, we first have to bring out the guillotine.

Yeah, I fucked up a bit. I didn’t know what this was talking about. I thought it was about defending Raymond’s right to free speech. In actuality, it’s about looking at someone on a far more surface level.

The worst kind of person isn’t someone who will defend free speech, it’s someone who does so at first, and then stops defending it when they’re in power.

I think hate speech should have repercussions, but there are lots of thoughts that are hard to explain. A big problem is the upsurge in these types of comics. I think they are not only unhelpful, but detrimental to the cause at hand when pro-Palestine protesters are being labeled “Nazis” and then detained. The problem right now clearly is the state, not the people living under the state, and someone saying a few offensive things, while evil, isn’t as bad as the government being turned into a police state before our eyes, who will gladly shut us up for protesting against them. Stop worrying about the Nazis in universities and start worrying about Nazis about to run the U.S. military.

I haven’t found a Raymond in Cascadia

It was word salad a bit, but I was concerned about people either wanting to die or trying to make clever quips about it.

The term Capitalist Realism I took from Mark Fisher’s book, Capitalist Realism, in which he describes people believing (at the time the book was written) that Capitalism is “human nature”, applies to everything, and that all attempts to the contrary are fruitless. And when someone is buried in debt, and believes in Capitalist Realism, they’d probably commit suicide out of hopelessness. This is why it’s so important to understand how socialism works, and work for its establishment.

TL;DR I understand that the problems are caused by Capitalism. They are fixable, there is still hope, and I worry about so many people considering and glorifying suicide.

This isn’t a place to make clever quips. This is a person being pushed to suicide.

We should make dying in battle a good thing again. The wrong kind of peace is a blight upon society.

I’m very worried about everyone here. Really, I know that there is a way out that isn’t suicide–it’s revolution–but it seems like you’ve all submitted to Capitalist Realism. I’ve thought about risking my life in an attempt to overthrow the state, but unlike you all, I am legitimately afraid of losing my life. It’d be such a sad note to end my life on. I wouldn’t be there to see any surprising good things happen. I wouldn’t get to see a socialist system established before me, and I wouldn’t be able to do anything to help anyone. How come you all feel fine about death? There’s nothing afterwards. There were the Viet Cong who couldn’t live to see their country establish socialism, there were the Leninists who died fighting the Tsar who couldn’t see the Soviet Union come to be, there were the slaves who died in Southern plantations who couldn’t see Juneteenth. If you were really willing to die, you’d die in battle.

Here’s my complaint about a machine producing it:

• Water Cost 1
• Water Cost 2, it has a nice Frutiger Aero image
• Water Cost 3
• Water Cost 4
• Systemic Risk to the Tech Industry
• Bad Business

I mean, this is incredibly tame for imperialist propaganda. You wouldn’t believe the shit I see in America. Take Enemy At The Gates for example.

You should check out Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen. It’s pretty old by now, but it still works as reflections of imperialist propaganda, imported and spread through U.S. troops with names like Derek and Brad.

Ofc I could tell, that’s the Polish flag upside down

Thanks so much!

Shit, I wasn’t on here. Tell you what, make another Devil’s Panties Blackout in six months. We encourage people to stock up on canned foods that can be eaten later, and bathroom items, soaps, whatever. Friend groups are established for the blackout just in case somebody loses something. It might last more than a week, maybe even a month. We should post this in streamers’ chats to encourage people to spread the word; this will be on fun streams where it will not be intrusive. Make sure to target people who can remember to do things, or use it as an opportunity to help people to remember schedules. People will stay with each other to get along.

Right here you can see capitalism collapsing in on itself. This is the result of a society that glorifies consumption and makes work undesirable to do.

It’s not the fault of anyone alone that having kids is difficult, it has a lot to do with the economy and where the kids grow up. Sardonically braising someone for not wanting kids, especially if they may choose to have kids later in life, is a waste of words, especially considering how some people are born infertile, or sometimes become that way by giving birth. If you love kids so much, you should be taking care of them RIGHT NOW
