I’m honestly not sure what point you’re trying to make.

👏👏👏

The USA was built on genocide goddammit

Whole nations of people wiped out

And yes, obviously, Gaza.

What a lovely day that would be

Well I take some issue with that. What’s happening isn’t because everyone’s dumber than you are, it’s happening because powerful people have systematically worked at making this happen. They fuck our schools, they remove our history, they do everything they can to keep this shitshow rolling.

Meanwhile, everyone’s just trying to fuckin survive. Someone told people they’d bring the cost of eggs down. That’s how politicians work everywhere. They lie to get in power. Here, there, everywhere.

Now, as a blue-collar anarchist I do my best. But most of these people never got critical thinking skills in the first place, and that’s the problem.

Education is failing people, and the Right is making sure of it. You’ll have this problem wherever you are, given enough time, if you’re not careful.

But what do I know, I’m just a hillbilly.

I need the Terraria BG music in Palworld, please let this be an option 🙏

Yeah it’s very much like that thing, “I’ve seen what makes you cheer, your boos mean nothing to me”

Now, what I do want to say is this: having spent my career surrounded by blue-collar men, there are about 1/3 of them that are the actual ringleaders for fascism. Whatever their camp is. Of the remaining 2/3, I would say half on a good day are still tolerable people. Misled, narrow-minded, problematic, check check check. But tolerable. And capable of being spoken to.

Union organizers know what I’m talking about. You’ve gotta divide the workers into camps you can get to, and camps you’ll never get to. It’s part of the process, I’ve read the books.

Now, those guys. They deserve to have the right people talking to them. It’s not their fault the education system failed them. The media lies to them. That bullies seem to win everywhere they look.

But for me, rn at this point in my career, fuck em. I’m done. I’ve tried. Over and over again. Fights, had em. I work for myself now and the less I talk to other electricians IRL the better. They can all suck a big fat one.

:deep sigh:

Eventually, my position may change.

Even if the economy recovers and we don’t enter a “recession” none of the other Millennials I know are ever gonna be able to trust the federal government again. In my experience, as a demographic, we tended to lean LibLeft anyway, or at least those of us with IQs and test scores to stay out of remedial classes do. There are exceptions - we all know that guy, and it’s always a guy. But still.

…

Sorry I had more but I got distracted by the sounds of birds in my yard and, well 🤷‍♂️

Right, most of these idiots don’t have a clue what the Left actually is.

Okay I read the source now and what I found funny is the part where people describe how “moderates” on dating apps are just conservatives. An observation I can regard as true in my experience, they are just self-aware enough to not be dismissed outright, but not self-aware enough to actually change a thing about themselves and become a better person.

This is DEEPLY VALIDATING thank you

It’s a hot family apparently

Sounds like a Kilgore Trout story

Gone is “I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings,” Maya Angelou’s transformative best-selling 1970 memoir chronicling her struggles with racism and trauma. Two copies of “Mein Kampf” by Adolf Hitler are still on the shelves.

Gone is “Memorializing the Holocaust,” Janet Jacobs’s 2010 examination of how female victims of the Holocaust have been portrayed and remembered.

“The Camp of the Saints” by Jean Raspail is still on the shelves. The 1973 novel, which envisions a takeover of the Western world by immigrants from developing countries, has been embraced by white supremacists and promoted by Stephen Miller, a senior White House adviser.

“The Bell Curve,” which argues that Black men and women are genetically less intelligent than white people, is still there. But a critique of the book was pulled.

That’s the fun part cause the people who seek power don’t deserve it. Bring on the global anarchist revolution!

Good to know, thanks! I haven’t had that chat with my doctor yet.

Love playing humans. The answer to your problem isn’t on your character sheet, it’s in the world. Poke things with sticks, throw dust in the air, tinker.

Yes I hate 5e and refuse to run it.

Am 38 and my friend just got his first one. They’re recommending them younger now, 40-45.
