Something about autism

My advice is to not let this shit affect your family relationships.

I’m not their savior but they will be my destroyers. Enough of the naivety. They have chosen a death cult. Fail to respect that decision at the peril of us all.

Why are people surprised that their parents are fascists? My parents have always been obvious christian fascists with a notable amount of local influence in their cult. My dad unironically relished “arbeit macht frei” when we went to Dachau. My patrilineage is an impressive pedigree of anti-communism backed with service in American wars. My grandfather privately referred to POC as savages until his death. Perhaps my experience is more unique than I believe, but I refuse to be naive.

I have broken relations with my family in part because of all this. Also because they hate my chosen family and I won’t tolerate it. I feel no responsibility to save them or correct them. I respect their very intentional decision to be monsters and hope they can be stopped asap. They are evil. They have always been evil.

It is VERY difficult to imagine there not being glaring red flags. This may be a result of my own baggage, but I am immediately skeptical of those who are blindsided by their family’s ideology. I fear many of you who are surprised would be shocked to know my family has always known that your family would belong to the imperial cause eventually. My family is not so obtuse as to believe they are any different now than they were during Clinton, 9/11, or the Tea Party, but somehow others give their own family a pass?

I am equally skeptical of numerous cliches used by ostensibly “leftist” folks including the use of problematic language or the reduction/commodification of identities. If you ironically say “neurospicy” for example, I assume you are willing to betray disabled people for your own gain. If you use “gay” as an insult, regardless of your identity, I will see you as my enemy. Period. These times will not reward naivety.

Sigh…

But what are the conditions that are changing? Do we have all the information?

Capitalism is not the only process at play. Settler ontology will nurse capitalism back to health because the supposed weakening of capitalism isn’t going to upend material settler realities in a way that forcloses it’s usual reactions.

And furthermore, imperialism has not collapsed. There is no reason to believe the BRICS, or any other contemporary developments, actually challenges imperialism meaningfully. We should remind ourselves that there have been moments when people feared the collapes, and even when people suffered catastrophic collapse before. Capitalism remains. Settler-colonialism remains. Imperialism remains. All because we have no clue what America is and are incapable of addressing it without reconsituting it in new ways.

The gift of pain, misery, and exploitation isn’t worth celebrating unless you are the one taking advantage of people

Christ… autism truly has no meaning whatsoever

No thanks lol I’m going to stay hyper vigilant until I know people are paying attention.

For a long time when I worked in restaurants and the boss would start blasting us with “faster!!!” we just all go “working hard, working hard” with no added enthusiasm or energy.

It has too much function to take it as a dismissive reply… unless it’s obvious.

For work I use it all the time to confirm I got an email. I can see how it may ruffle feathers, but my other colleagues don’t even confirm they got the message. Using the thumbs up also helps me organize what I need to do because half it is just in emails I gave a thumbs up to.

If I just replied 👍 to this post, I can see how that would be bullshit but that’s not how Im using it.

Its kinda like saying “sir” or “ma’am.” Some people are too good for it imo and some people may have good reasons to feel uneasy about it, but to me it is respectful to use it as long as you aren’t clearly a shit head.

It’s impossible to take people seriously that do what you are describing.

Im curious why people think this might harm US power and what that would look like

People who say “I know from history” oftentimes have the historical knowledge of a gamer.

You dont have a point other than people bad. It’s the most insipid, unthinking comment you could possibly make.

Good luck with 7th grade

I guess that questioning of the artifical legitimacy is why we are watching all the “bleeding hearts” turn into George Bush.

Their vassals seem to be squirming for more war

“Sending”

You took Trump at his word about NATO. Do you also believe he is anti-war? You gonna block me?

He is a Zionist and engages in partisan discourse within zionism. He is only critical of who is empowering the Zionist state. He still supports the project, and you agree he does. Being accepting of it absolutely makes him a Zionist. Isreal does not have the right to exist.
