05.08.2025 07:23 โ ๐ 2 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Yet - that's the only way you can reclaim your humanity. People say touch grass - I say that's the same dopamine trigger as posting or a burrito chauffeur or anything else. Instead, figure out how you want things to look in 10, 20, 30, 50 years - and then work towards it. It'll take time.
05.08.2025 06:59 โ ๐ 6 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0This is a hard sell, of course. The immediacy offered by the modern neoliberal capitalism is difficult to ignore, as a human working on human biological impulses. The feeling of permacrisis is not only a psychological reaction to anomie, but a deliberate design of profit-maxmizing entities.
05.08.2025 06:59 โ ๐ 6 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0That's because long-term planning requires sacrifice and duty, and those are not things that people give a shit about anyone (see burrito taxis). Instant gratification, more than any social media, has completely fucked humanity. Only way to fix it is to stop valuing your own convience over anything.
05.08.2025 06:55 โ ๐ 8 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0For an international example, we can look at Ukraine. Not a single person in the world, aside from Vladimir Putin, has a long-term outlook for the war and its resolution. European leaders seem entirely content to watch thousands of people die every year with no one end in sight.
05.08.2025 06:55 โ ๐ 5 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0The reason it petered out is because the politicos assumed that, due to the lack of a response, no one cares about the fascist takeover. That may be true to an extent. But what those politicos are failing to understand is that time+repetition=success.
05.08.2025 06:55 โ ๐ 7 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0What we find is that after a few fitful starts of resistance (Booker's filibuster) for example, it petered out entirely when there was no immediate response. Dems aren't even talking about boycotting Congress, much less doing another filibuster.
05.08.2025 06:55 โ ๐ 5 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Fascists, despite this being slightly counter-inuitive, clearly are willing to work on plans for years and generations. And it seems like almost no one else is. Let's look at a variety of political crisis', both domestic and international. On the domestic front, we can examine the fascist takeover.
05.08.2025 06:55 โ ๐ 5 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Now, on the one hand, it's obvious why - neoliberalism exacerbates the presentism of capitalism to such a degree that the past is a content mine, the future doesn't exist, and the now is all that we ever have.
This makes it difficult to resist fascism.
One of the biggest problems in modern politics isn't the fact that we all live in entirely delusional takes-bubbles (I'll be honest, that has been the case for most of human existence), but the fact that most people have completely lost the ability to plan things out long-term.
05.08.2025 06:55 โ ๐ 25 ๐ 1 ๐ฌ 2 ๐ 0This is why Crimes Against Humanity Trials and a Truth and Reconciliation Commission are required minimums in the next Presidency or whatever government the US has after Trump. We tortured some people doesnโt cut it anymore and never did.

I will never ever let this go, because Netflix fucked me, personally, by cancelling a show that truly spoke to me, in my dark and shriveled heart, and what it said was dick 9/11 jokes (laudatory)
