Remember no crackers
At this point, I wanna marry tofu
Welp, thanks to all of you idiots that didn't want to vote for Mussolini, Hitler won the election
I've been practicing this line I love a lot, and I can hear the improvement with each take.
The original song is "22 Faces" by Periphery. It's around 2:54 in the song.
tons of sheet noises because I, as usual, recorded this on my bed when I was shaking a lot and unable to sleep �*
Whenever I see something on the internet like "down with cis people" or something of the sort, I think about this tweet and I think about how many transgender settler child-killing nazis are in the iof.
And I think about how western theories & discourses of social justice have been revealed as completely inadequate in the age of al Aqsa Flood.
Well, tbh, I first thought this grafitti could go either way, from Falastini or Israeli. I don't see any signs of it being Israeli.
But ok, the main antagonism is Israeli settler-colonialism.
I don't see any signs of it being Israeli.
Haifa was ethnically cleansed by the zionists and the remaining Palestinian Arabs live in segregated areas, banned from displaying Palestinian flag.
If the grafitti was made by a Palestinian then that's actually even more depressing tbh but I think its very unlikely.
Western Academia/NGO/Social Justice Pipeline: replacing analysis of colonialism and post/neo-colonial class dynamics with identity politics and calling it radical.
(No I'm not against trans people...)
Settler feminism, settler trans rights, settler worker rights... All settlers before anything else
well, after months of deliberation i finally bought a one way ticket to portugal and planning to slowly make my way from there to either asia or africa. still have a day to chicken out and refund but i mean i've been desperately searching for a reason to not just up and leave the country, the bar has been barely above the ground, and still haven't found even one reason so doubt anything will change in the next day.
i'm not necessarily looking forward to it, still trying to get past the "i wish things were different" mentality. just seems like the only thing left to do besides succumbing to hopelessness. i'm hoping the journey will alleviate my misanthropic thoughts and lead to finding my people, but i know it's best to not have any expectations. i'm also worried about what happens when i run out of the very little money i do have or potential prejudice especially in europe but fuck it i want to do less thinking and more action
the only thing i will miss is my computer. still thinking if i should even bring a laptop since i plan to mostly camp

Well good luck. Even the journey doesn't satisfy, in terms of finding your people, it'll alleviate you some what I suppose.

I'd wish you bring one.
People don’t eat out at restaurants because they save money.
While that’s true for me, my biggest reason is I don’t fucking like interacting with a vast majority of servers witht heir brainworms about ‘canadians’ and then having to fucking pay them for bad service
Are you a Canadian living abroad?
In the food industry ‘Canadians’ is used as a euphemism for a racial slur.
This chucklefuck is trying to blame the flooding death toll on DEI. The dumbest fucks on the planet
Or, as DragonBallZinn said, he's playing bad faith as usual
Why after all make a more believable lie, if the hogs are still satisfied to even the most unrealistic ones...
Joke I saw somewhere
A conservative man catches a magical talking goldfish who says to him "I will give you one wish of whatever you want, but your neighbor gets double whatever you wish for". The man thinks for a moment before coming up with what he thinks is the perfect wish for the situation and says, "I wish I was blind in one eye"
Am I justified in getting a bad vibe from this message this British leftist sent me?
I'm not convinced this leftist is any different to the liberals who reduce all politics and world events to “people who yelled at me in the comments”
These are the same people who will adamantly defend the important role of "white working class" in socialist revolution.
Am I justified in getting a bad vibe from this message this British
Let me stop you there.
Yes.
Browsing American social media has shown me US poc have no standards when dating ugly ass whites but every poc they date needs to look like a god damn model to even have a chance
Lol then its celebrated like they landed the royal family even if its person from bumfuck nowhere
It's classism, the white one is usually the richer one and when talking about the third world is always the richer one even if they're poor.
Chuds talk about the left using lived experience as a weapon yet they use lived experience over and over to justify this genocide, to justify mistreatment of minorities, xenophobia. Their whole ideology is some warped lived experience immune to reality
They have one bad interaction with a brown skinned person and it’s hitler time but god forbid make a stereotype about them
lol it's like when chuds talk about being the only white kid at school and since they got bullied, that made them racist. Or they talk about how black people never tip, so that's why they never give good service.
"Is me being racist why minorities treat me like shit? No, obviously I'm racist because it's their fault for being mean."
shit or doctors deciding black people have higher pain tolerance.
American "I am so depressed to be American. I don't recognize my country."
Us in the third world "
Stupidest fucking thing colonizers say is "we developed the area, we built roads and..." motherfucker you think we don't know how to build a road? if I rob your house and build a second toilet in it for me am I doing you good?
Their roads are shit too with all the poptholes. Meanwhile the Mayan built roads are still largely intact with the only damage done by tourists.
there's not a place on earth that colonizers touched and it became better
Sadly a lot of colonized sprout this shit too. Even though it was purely for extraction and exploitation not for the benefit of the people.
Mi Gente is it time to leave the US? Like all bullshit aside is it time to get out financial consequences be damned?
I feel like "they just made the concentration camp budget 150 billion dollars" is as good an indicator as any. And even if it's not now there's no pathway I can see for improvement for this place. It will get there eventually.
Any time is a good time to get out of the U.S
Where do you have in mind?
Guate actually I have family there
I know it has its problems I have lived there before so going into it with both eyes open. What I'm not so sure on is if things are getting better or worse. With the way mexico is trending as the US continues to crumble I could see guate going either way
If you can leave you should, waiting until the current fash policies personally affects you could be very dangerous
Kinda hit me today talking to a coworker about how he has told his parents to start carrying their passports. And I was like yeah I've thought about it which is surreal to admit but that's when it sort of became concrete for me that I'm not safe here, citizen or no it doesn't matter you can get thrown on a plane and end up in ICE detention. Maybe you come back, maybe you don't.
My voice was ready to give up entirely through this whole thing, but meh, I fux with the result decently ig
The aforementioned comrade said, "That's a track I love, man. I don't know why. Maybe I'm just a millennial, y'know. Even though I got the heart of a zoomer."
He said "zoomer" with a goofy high-pitched voice, hence the italics.
Saw an Instagram reel where a white woman said "the caucasity" and it made me cringe a billion different times in 70 dimensions all at once.
Is this normal?
Yes. Yes it is. I got psychic backlash from this
The leftist gaming club didn't gatekeep liberals, so of course they did a fundraiser for veterans on 4th. of July. It was a nice thought while it lasted.
Never trust gamers
Definitely an example of what no theory does to a motherfucker. They're just going off vibes and aesthetics.
Looking forward to another day of training, mostly a lot of down time fixing up a office so gonna be listening to some audiobooks when I can or podcasts. Got my lunch ready mexican rice, frijoles de la olla and some carne de soya. Also got like an hour or two to kill when I get there so prob gonna get some study on hvac done. This whole grind to try to get a better lot in life is difficult keep hoping it's worth it in the end.
I remember growing up and thinking that most crackers were good and the bad ones were just an extremely tiny fraction of them because we all took care of the racists back in the 1960s, right? This shows you just how misleading our education system is.
Of course, I realized it's actually the opposite. Even when I meet a cracker who seemingly shows a lot of signs of "being one of the good ones," I still feel like they're racist as shit.
I've even had other Black leftists tell me that I'm too skeptical of white people. I really would hope that they, of all people, could understand the amount of damage that whiteness has done to me. I cannot even describe it here because 1) at this point, it's so heavy that I don't even feel like a CW/spoiler can prepare someone for the sheer weight of the racial trauma I have and 2) I can't even find the right words if I wanted to. It's just indescribably bad.
Even the good ones I met ask them about my country or others in africa and....dear oh dear.
my country or others in africa
ehm you mean cities in Africa, because Africa is a country
Now, you may be wondering about, and you too as well, but why in the late times, just an hour after midnight?
I shouldn't have drunk that chai very late
I know that feel...
I sometimes will drink a caffeinated soda or even coffee at night and say to myself, "You're definitely gonna regret this. Just stop," but I do it anyway!
