Good shit. Makes me wonder if Paul F Tomkins just automatically shows up when you make a show with that aesthetic.
I just remember the incorrect phonetics

White woman privilege is absolutely insane. People need to listen to themselves.
"Yes, Lauren Southern is one of the most prominent Hitlerites on Earth. Yes, she's done arguably more than anyone alive to perpetuate the myth of White Genocide. Yes, I, being a revolutionary, believe that when the time comes, she will have to be killed. But suffering extremely minor consequences because she partnered up with a fellow Hitlerite? THAT'S A BRIDGE TOO FAR BECAUSE I CAN IMAGINE THAT HAPPENING TO ME (unlike being killed on the basis of my nationality)!!!"
This is just the cop vs soldier chauvinist argument all over again. So long as the violent enforcer of Western domination is relatable, they're just a poow widdle victim who didn know no bettew.
I can only imagine the flow of tears when people found out about innocent ol Eva Braun biting the bullet.
Just picked up a CPAP today. Thanks again!
Thank you so much for all the help. I'm feeling a lot less stressed out.
We will have a car and one of the people has spent most of his life in LA. I don't know if he knows the specific area, but I think he'll be familiar. I'll ask.
Edit: he definitely knows the area.
Gonna be staying at a hotel in Simi Valley, apparently.
That place is very encouraging, it says they can do pickup at the storefront. I just hope I can get my prescription info and it'll allow me a rental.
Thank you!
Me in 2024: laughing as I imagine Khalid Sheikh Mohammed's face when Cheney set off the charges
Browsing /r/all because I'm never gonna die so wasting my life doesn't matter. Anyway I see a post titled 'Leading scholar Dr.snyder on the subject of eastern European nationalism debunks myths and lies spread by Russia about Ukraine.'
"Hmm. No, wait... it can't be."
To inform their actions and analysis?
People need to understand class interest beyond "worker good, Capitalist bad, workers come together and sing kumbaya really hard until Communism happens."
If it were that simple, we would be living in Communism right. It's not that simple. A couple of examples: steel worker union wants the price of steel to be as high as possible so union members are compensated well. Union of... idk, pipe builders want steel to be as cheap as possible for obvious reasons. Despite both groups consisting exclusively of proles, they have contradictory interests.
Another example that's been highlighted by recent DSA actions: class reproduction. Academic "Marxists" generally lose all radicalism because they've secured a position where they can write for a living instead of doing one of the million jobs that no one wants to do. This applies perhaps even more strongly to paid positions within "Socialist" organizations. Why did Maria of the DSA behave with such profound chauvinism on the Cuba trip? Because she sees a path out of working for a living. Everything she did established credibility in the eyes of the people who hire Democratic Party staffers.
And the single most important example in the world today: Americans. A nation ostensibly composed of the working class like any other, yet all but the most vulnerable of its population are so profoundly bribed with the superprofits of the actual global working class that their interests have been thoroughly aligned with the status quo. They constitute a parasitic class on the world stage. Why do the most useless counter-revolutionary tendencies (LeftCommunism, Council Communism, Trotskyism, Neokautskyism) come exclusively from the West? Because the population does not, for the most part, experience revolutionary conditions. They don't need to do a revolution because they will be fine no matter what.
And this isn't some wild, new, 21st century theory. No less than Marx, Engels, and Lenin all described the parasitic nature of British "workers" and their attempt to secure well-being on the backs of the global proletariat: “...The English proletariat is actually becoming more and more bourgeois, so that this most bourgeois of all nations is apparently aiming ultimately at the possession of a bourgeois aristocracy and a bourgeois proletariat alongside the bourgeoisie. For a nation which exploits the whole world this is of course to a certain extent justifiable.”

There are hundreds of QTs from Nazis talking about how they were the smartest kids ever but the damn (((education system))) hampered them, and anyone who doesn't believe that they're hyper geniuses is simply a seething lib.
You're supposed to get over the "I was a gifted kid" stuff by the time you're 20.
