I see your lesser evilism losing incrementally and I'm going all-in on greater goodism by any means necessary

Figured I'd share a bit of steam review insight on the horse game server inspired by this 🫡

It is also that the american people are among the most heavily propagandized in history so building class consciousness of any kind has been difficult for us. I have never seen in my lifetime such a broad, on the street level, sea change in opinions and am starting to hope.

I think about this post a lot.

Listen I do not care if this is the author's barely disguised fetish, if they're good at their damn job it will be MY barely disguised fetish while the story lasts and perhaps afterwards

My hot take i guess is that you shouldnt be able to try and ruin someone's career or life just because you didn't like the fictional badnastywrong thing they wrote 🤷‍♂️

Vic for sure.

Minneapolis and Saint Paul have basically mobilized into a war economy of mutual aid and non-violent defense. I’ve never seen anything like it, even during Covid. People who barely vote are guarding their schools from ICE and doing the shopping for neighbors in hiding.

I am begging you. Please learn about stress/discomfort tolerance. Practice raising it. You need this to survive. If someone online can ruin your day with a throwaway comment, you desperately need to understand discomfort tolerance and consciously, systematically build that shit. Also! Stress tolerance is such an important skill that having a learning disability in that area is a major symptom of a whole lot of other disabilities/mental illnesses! Struggling with it is a huge part of life! It sucks! Am I saying everyone with misophonia needs to listen to chewing noises all day? No. But you need to find ways to tolerate it enough that you don't treat others like shit if they make a mouth noise near you. No, you don't have to read the fic with your trigger tags. But you do need to be able to handle scrolling past the tags without being upset. It is hard! But not having it also makes you so so so easy to manipulate. That grandma is racist AF because her mom raised her to be uncomfortable around black people and she never fought that discomfort. Trans people make so many cis people uncomfortable and that discomfort turns into bigotry real fast. Letting your discomfort dictate your actions and beliefs about things is a great way to become a terrible person. Learn. Discomfort. Tolerance.

Important shit that I’m still trying to learn.

The problem isn't that ICE "lacks training"
you see the actual problem is absolutely that they're raging fascists
you slightly less right-wing useful fucking idiots

frankly I'm a little disappointed when dialogue *isn't* intense <3

This line of thinking is a political dead end. Don't worry about how you can't change the mind of a fascist sympathizer, they're in the minority. Worry about educating, organizing, and mobilizing the millions of people who already oppose fascism but don't know what to do about it.

Copaganda: 🤮

As federal agents intensify their attacks across the country from St. Paul to New Orleans, it is crucial to circulate and build on the day-to-day practices of collective resistance that people are developing to protect their communities.

We keep us safe. We can do this.

when you are tactically outclassed, you still have three things:

circumstance -- and the gall, and guile to invent it.

The big lie is the incistance that we must say things which cannot be flipped and used against us to describe those who do harm.

In truth, anything can be flipped. Anything can be stolen, to cloak evil in good.

The nazis did it with paganism and buddhism's optics. It can be done to anything.

For whoever needs to hear this, the government does not need "provocation" to "justify further repression." They are already literally murdering people at random in the full light of day.

Good behavior counts for nothing now.

All that counts is finding concrete ways to exert leverage against them.

あなたの執筆についてもっと聞かせてください :)

when I was in college, a part of our university's graduation requirements had a community service component that they called service learning. one of my service learning classes involved work at a local homerless community center, helping people write resumes and cleaning bathrooms. our instructor told us to expect to see the bathrooms trashed a lot - like you will clean the bathroom and immediately someone will wreck it.

and it's not because they disrespect your work or don't value having access to clean bathrooms or whatever, but because of control. when you feel like you have no control over your life or your environment, your brain is going to want to assert control however it can. which results in thrashed bathrooms. it's control exercised over one small part of your environment that you still have the power to affect.

i see kids on tumblr using the language of social justice as cudgels on people who actually do care about and listen to them. or holding the creators within their own communities to an impossibly high standard that they never apply to mainstream media properties.

i just see thrashed bathrooms. 'These are the people my voice actually reach,' they rationalize, 'so these are the people I'll hurt'. but the guiding principles of social justice are aimed at correcting and dismantling systems. stop using them to dismantle people.

annual repost of Trashed Bathrooms

There's a lot of issues with the myths around nonviolence and protest. A big one is that they erase the actual history of the civil rights movement — complex coalitions whose struggles and strategies are vital to understand — into a whitewashed saintliness that gentry liberals are comfortable with.

we’re never returning to “normal “

that world is dead and gone

we create a new one, or we live in hell

I think one of the big problems in the current moment is none of the people using power to dismantle polite society believe they will face mortal consequences for attempting this, but none of them are willing to die for the cause. They bought the law & want to stay alive to post about it afterwards.

We're playing Calvinball with the law and I think preventing the creation of new billionaires and building a dignified future for all is going to require an opposition party led by people who understand how to win at Calvinball. Anyone presently in the way of this needs to vacate or find other work.
