Donald Trump as Carl Havoc

everywhere the centrist argument the left has to abandon its principles to fight fascism leaving the only choice between corporate bureaucrats and nazis has had the effect of empowering nazis. thats a failed formula every time.

So-called "Centrism" does not work.

Victory is the best argument

It's not in this article but the government asserts that the sandwich was thrown at "point blank range", which implies subway sandwiches have defined effective weapon ranges of varying lethality, and I would like to see the government's chart of these ranges.

Right?! It is like every bad trope but turn to 11. And the new guy? Has about as much presence as Chuck Schumer.

finally. baseball is over. we can only hope it has been defeated forever

I believe that early christmas decorations are a plot by christians to erase anything pagan.

Jynx!

Don’t threaten me with a good time

That is the nature of the beast. Production exists to give people jobs so they don’t starve to death, regardless of whether or not the stuff produced is actually wanted or needed. Want is manufactured to keep it going.

Not sure if you are into anime, but Gachiakuta has an interesting take.

I am definitely feeling the blah too.

But then I see all the Christmas stuff for sale weeks before Halloween and I cannot help but feel like the christians are still working diligently to erase all trace of paganism from our culture. And the rage sets in.

While true. It is also one of the few holidays that is not christian coded that encourage people, especially children to engage with their imagination and creativity. While also pushing past comfort zones to do the unthinkable in our day and age. Knock on random peoples doors.

Screaming into the void here. But if any of you fuckers are sleeping on this… they are pure magic. Haute and Freddy at the Cafe Du Nord.

Curious. What do you think ghosts are?

The idea is so complicated when you consider all the different cultures ideas of an afterlife.

I want to be dismissive of the idea, but I have seen too much.

This must be a gen z thing.

Obviously the opposite of a clown is Mr Far.

*call people

Anyways. It’s 2025 and here we are with a bunch of nazis running the government.

I remember a few years back I got into an argument with some dude over the internet about how the term woke was co-opted by white supremacists and used as a pejorative. People who use it that way are nazis.

The person said: lefties always all people they don’t agree with nazis”

Anyways.

Yes. Rich people exist.

I have a hague feeling this is not going to turn out well for him.

"Neoliberalism was the system that managed to convince everyone in the world that financial elites were the only people capable of managing or measuring the value of anything, even as in order to do so, it ended up promulgating an economic culture so irresponsible that it allowed those elites to bring the entire financial architecture of the global economy tumbling on top of them because of their utter inability to assess the value even of their own financial instruments." . - David Graeber

Oh shit. So it does. Learned a thing.

If you go into the search bar in the emojis and type cringe, that is the one that pops up. But I hear what you are saying.

😬 is a cringe face. So I was taking that at face value. I miss understood.

And I agree, the problem is indeed greed. It is greedy people who seek power. Tech is power. And like a portapotty, the shit rises to the top.

With industrialization, we’ve gone from human scale to machine scale. Everything is magnified. You think climate collapse would be a thing if we decided to stick to handcrafts? Sure, computers are cool and all, but I’d rather be sitting around a fire, telling stories. Oh. But I am somehow cringe.

But what if the luddites were right?

I don’t think the vast majority of Americans realize they have been in a pot of hot water. I have soooooo many thoughts about all this I cannot keep track of them all.
