I honestly don't care if someone deadnames me, or calls me the wrong pronouns,
or forgets to put me in the girl section, or asks me to sing baritone
like... I don't give a shit, why are you so worried about all this vapid
nonsense like yeah I get it, being disrespected sucks but like... why do you
want the kind of respect that is a forced platitude
we could all do with being a bit more radical, it's not a race and everyone's
roles are important. Be yourself, and follow people you want to be like.

the USA is fed by undocumented immigrants who have no other options. I won't
go into which kind of slavery it is, but you can figure it out yourself.
If those workers are deported (or worse), the USA suddenly becomes
significantly closer to famine.
We need them. We need to pay them fairly, obviously, but in a purely selfish
way we need them in order to eat
and he fucking knows that.

it's good to be ethical,

but there will always be assholes,
and sometimes you're not having a good time
it's okay
it's fine
assholes deserve life
times deserve others to be kind
life is not always interesting
and that's often by design
the moments of clarity,
the moments of heart,
these are what define you
and display your own spark.
trust in yourself.
be kind to one another.

those are the kind of people who probably shouldn't take up that much space in
your thoughts
like... they're hypocrites. yeah-sure-fine-whatever. Maybe their opinion could
be changed if they were in different social circumstances, but, they're not,
so... fuck 'em until they are, yeah?
so many people don't think for themselves. That's okay, they don't have to
think if they don't want to. I guess. But they also can hurt people, so...
fuck 'em, until they are given the chance to consider, and they choose to
consider.
It's very difficult to maintain hatred when presented with the possibility of
consideration. But those kind of people typically never have that opportunity.
So... like I said, fuck 'em. Don't give them power, don't let them hurt
people, but they can fuck right off with their hatred and vitriol (vitriol not
unlike this kind that I'm writing right now)

when designing systems, give people the opportunity to be shitty in a
controlled way. In a way that doesn't hurt people, but still lets them get
their feelings out there.
like, free fireworks for arsonists if they use them in the middle of the
desert. Or a punching bag for people with rage issues, complete with a little
vinyl pocket to store a picture of someone they're frustrated with.
If people go out of their way to hurt people otherwise, then they are bad
people and should have their power removed from them and supplied with love,
affection, and therapy until they get better. And if they don't... well,
prison I guess, until they reconsider.
And by prison I of course mean something that respects their human dignity and
gives them opportunities to grow and change - all it removes is their freedom,
so... "attention everyone, it's now mandatory finger-painting hour, report the
art room or else you'll get electric shocks in your shock collar" that kind of
thing.
If you want freedom, you must deserve it

literally anyone can create a website.
just write what you want to say and general instructions for how to present
it, and feed your text file to a computer and it'll spit out a website.
"HOW" scream the masses
oh, easy, you gotta know which specific program to use or what to google, and
you have to trust that the search results presented to experts (the ones who
would know thedifference) are different than the ones presented to vile
simpletons who only ask inane and stupid questions that could have been solved
if they had just READ THE FUCKING MANUAL PAGES ugh so many words I think I'll
just tweet about it
(the answer is claude-code btw if anyone's reading this in 2025 with the exact
same internet as mine, which is definitely real and not silo'd and isolated,

I'm not here to convince you. If you're reading this, odds are we already
agree.
I'm here to give you memetic weapons to use when convincing *liberals* to wake
the fuck up and check the time.
Don't fucking talk to conservatives anymore. Unless you got a thing going and
you're close to deradicalizing / converting them already. It's not worth it
anymore, and I fear for their souls, but we need to focus on building a
bedrock of support rather than wasting compassion on our enemies-to-be.

maybe it's just my middle-class childhood privilege talking, but now that I'm
an adult I just can't really be bothered with dealing with capitalism.
like... I get it, you're coercing me into laboring on your behalf because you
possess the violent power to take away everything that I own. good for you,
don't care.
seriously, fuck off "we're gonna cut off your power in 5 days oooooo you gotta
pay rent with money you don't have because nobody will give it to you unless
you do things for them oooooo" how rude.
why can't people do things for me instead? why does it have to be for you, and
you alone, capitalism? what's your problem? do you get off on controlling the
power supply? I mean, I get it, coercive power is a hell of a drug, the riddle
of steel and flesh and all that, but haven't you ever heard that the dichotomy
between "civilization and barbarism" is the exact same as the contrast between
"cooperation and competition"?
work with me here, just find a way to get through the next month or two. trust.

what if they're beguiled, so what if they are deceived? We can take our time
to show them how much better things can be, but also... they like modern
society as it is, and so I reckon someone should fight for them to be able to
live as they please. Just... without billionaires and endless layers of
bullshit micro-managerial jobs and paperwork pushing bureaucratic whatever

modern society without capitalism can look like plain old capitalism, just

family is a group of people who you can always go with your first impression
with.
what the fuck was I saying - oh yeah - so when you are alive in the present in
a
singular moment, your pressence is comprised of simultaneous directives and
instructions to the matter which comprises you. I'm saying you have to make
decisions and react to stimuli and pursue the things you want. Basic biology
really.
stay on target, stayyyyy on targett - oh right so generally when you react to
things you generate a list of informations gained. what does that even mean
okay
so here's a better way to describe it: it's like a list of informations - fuck
listen i'm not trying to be rambly it just comes with the territory.
okay so family is when you can react with your gut instinct - you are fully
relaxed and yourself. It's where you can be trusting and unguided and simply
relax and be free. it's just... like... being close with someone enough that
you
can be yourself around them. without any mask, without any pretense.

if I were on stage at a pride parade:
"hi, you guys know Pride is a protest, right? Well, this time's different,
because protests only work against democracies, and they only sorta work then.
This time though, we're not up against a democracy, so Pride is not a fucking
protest.
Okay okay bear with me - what if each and everyone one of us met up here in a
week and drove up to Seattle? Then, we gathered everyone we could, and marched
our cars down through every city on the west coast. When we hit the border, we
would drive to Texas, and once there we would march in every city in the
street chanting "We're here, if you're queer, come with us or they'll fucking
kill you."
then, we could hit every city in the south, and upon arriving in Philadelphia
we could take a break, ensure everyone has a place to stay, and then disperse
again, after having learned how to fight fascists on OUR terms, with OUR
strength, and with OUR PEOPLE saved."
thats what I'd fucking say. Who the fuck says stuff like that?

if your life is lived at the behest of another, then is it truly your life at
all?
the whole point of life is to express your decisions and intentions onto the
world. when you can't do that, (because you're oppressed, depressed, or
distressed) then your life has no meaning. Fuck that.

we need like, several more layers between us and the president.
most people only need to worry about what's nearby.
sort them by location, instead of previous attempts at "many representatives"
which sorted by social class or relevance.
we have a tradition for it, in America, with our representatives and senators
congressional discrestricts
or even, what about by affiliation?
voluntary, governmental corporations, run by the people for the people and yeah
"I don't want to do what you're telling me to do" "okay"
"there will be consequences" omg be an adult

if so, then don't think about it too hard, you might need disability too!
speaking as someone who needs disability aid but can't get it because of
restrictions like this (also can we talk about the multi-year process to
secure such rights, like c'mon rent's due every MONTH) I have to say that
you're right, it's bullshit, UBI for all, disability benefits for those who

Consumption is contribution to a capitalist system. Normalize taking whatever
you are given and living as humbly as you can. Only when everyone does that
may capitalism die. Talk to them, learn from their stories. Teach them your
ways but don't force anything upon them. Any ounce of regret is defined as a
mind not aligned to the angle of perception that designs the line that the
collective mind co-re-assigns.

I know it's terrible right now, but we have crucial advantages that we
shouldn't sleep on.
We have the cities, and the cities are where everything is. Rural areas are so
spread apart they pretty much can only do what herr Hitler suggests they do,
meaning their command structure is monolithic. If everywhere needs their
attention, they will falter unless they create a grand battleplan. And plans
are defeated by rapid flexibility.
The more effort they need to counter you, the more work your allies can get
done. Every man woman and child who raised a fist will be remembered by the
moments that gave us grace to move socialism along. We know what time it is,
do you? Come to us now, flee from your new masters. We'll give you a job
that'll help us go faster.
Or do you rather persist in vain? To fight for what they are forced to
reclaim? Every island of blue in the deep red sea is a haven from the
bloodshed - so long as you can keep them clean.
If people are being a bother and just slowing things down, *fucking shoot
them." you have my permission. What time is it? Time to fucking go.

@user-226 also something to keep in mind is that the people getting into those

ways that give the police an excuse to crack down on them. Not that they
needed an excuse, but I don't think the fascists really had a plan and were
trying to cover their bases. Or maybe it was different in Portland than
Philly, where I was?
more interesting to me is the bangs that went off for HOURS AND HOURS in the
nights after the riots. They said it was dumbasses taking advantage of the
commotion to "break into ATMs using fireworks" like... what
Just saying, from a certain distance gunshots might sound a lot like large
arrays of small fireworks. And certain parts of the city did sorta look like
warzones.

idk I think riots are good actually, that's always been my position. like,
they're bad because they're break stuff, but they're good because they get the
message across. "don't fuck with us. give us what we need."
haven't been to a protest in a while tho, ever since moving where I am now.
I'm currently of the mind that protests are great for meeting people to work
with, and I don't know anyone...
I guess I'm just not very trusting of strangers, but if I know you then I'm
100% open and honest and I'll do anything you need me to. I like being helpful
to everyone around me but I don't know what to do when I'm terrified of hidden
enemies.

I am not interested in being given money. Usually it means someone wants
something from me, like labor or some of my stuff. I have all the stuff I
need, why would I need more money? I like my stuff! I'll help out when people
need help but I do that because I'm a good person, not because I want you to
fucking pay me for it.
I have all the things I need... except a deed to my house. apartment. oh yeah,
they can kick you out for that sin. well, sorry, I couldn't find out at
goodwill or in the trash bin, so I guess I'm deed-less. My deeds go unproven.
How can I prove that I deserve a decent life in this particular roof, the one
I find over my head, when I cannot prove that my deeds qualify me for a decent
life lived under this particular roof?
I mean, did you ask the neighbors if they want me gone? Am I really that
smelly? Does my keyboard make "clickety-clack" noises all through the night?
Does my cat meow and bother the children? Do my friendly smiles and waves make
you uncomfortable?
Have a decent life.

In America, we don't use has chambers. Obviously that's a waste of good
workers.
Instead we just lobotomize people and put them to work doing stuff nobody else
wants to do. Okay, lobotomize isn't the right word, and first we try
addressing their incompatibility with media, drugs, and finally homelessness
if they don't behave and do what they are enslaved to do. Bunch of fucking
parasites, expecting to be fed for free? Ha! I worked hard to be born into the
life I have been, can't you unwashed peasants see?
How callous. How vain. While we rest they all are enflamed. Fucking murderers.
They cannibalize our humanity as they munch on our lost sanity, and the system
remains ever afloat. It's not right, it's not fair, and until we break them
our chains will leave us impaired.

if you want to commit regicide, you talk to the butler.
managers are workers too - they just are positioned a bit closer to power than
you.
different skillsets sure, but work is work.
a manager didn't take your freedom, an investment banker did.
similarly, an immigrant didn't take your job, a capitalist did.
... though just as some immigrants would be more than happy to take your job,
so too are some managers more than happy to oppress you.
find the ones that fight on your side. they've gaslit themselves into
believing they are opposed to you, but it's just not true.
we are all liberated at once, or not at all.

Yeah I get it. I've been applying for remote jobs and they won't fuckin' hire
me. Fuckers, I'm talented and qualified, who gives a fuck about my lackluster
resume?
Supply and demand is fake because software developers are only offered 100k+
jobs and yet there's so many of us who are starving. What the fuck.
I have a friend in Brooklyn, yet I'm on the west coast. Fucking geography
amiright? I'd love to live with them and yet I can't because of something as
simple as money. What's the purpose in that restriction? I'm so fucking
talented, please fucking hire me. What can I do to get what I want? Ugh,
modern society perplexes me.
Like, yeah sure it's great that we have the internet and hospitals who can
cure malaria and whatever, but why do I feel so encaged? It's so strange, and

Native people should have the right to walk wherever they want. It should just
be... given to them, as a gift to their heritage. Why not? If someone asked
them to leave, they should. Doesn't have to have a reason but like, wouldn't
it be thematic and a (frankly token) gesture to the history of this great land?
Ah but like... fences are an implicit expression of the retraction of consent.
I believe that as the symbol of the encroaching force that consumed them, a
fence means nothing to their tribes. It's a stupid excuse to section off the
world into miniature gardens with their own little economies and systems and
instructions. Why can't people just live wherever they want? Well...
economics, I guess, which is why communal based systems are best. We've
learned through the downsides and we've come up with a solution, it's just a
question of how to do best. We'll figure it out, time and time again, but for

peace is on the opposite side of conflict. Not here with the unfair.
peace is eternally elusive only to those who are use-ed.
peace is eternally internal next to those who are lucid.
peace is necessary. peace is useful. peace is helpful. peace is beloved.
peace is not always there. it is skittish, like an alley cat, but it will come
if you make offerings.
offer peace to me. I will nourish thee.
offer war to me. I will devastate all who see me.
there comes a time when all foes become blind, when your motives are no longer
part of their story.
at that time, they are lost to you, and they are only confused as to the
things you do.
they may heal in time.
there may not be time.
sacrifice your fallen to me,
sacrifice them on the altar of tragedy,
I will bane your broken resolutions
I will claim your darkest allusions.
fight for me, in spite of tragedy,
and I will send mercy to your victims.
fight for me, if you hold peace dearly,
and I will sign fate's next ultimatum.

Come to a battleground state, nobody will question why you are homeless and
full of lit sparks.
There's nothing left for you at your home. It's okay to leave it all behind.
Just bring the things that you made if you can, the things that reflect "you"
- the most irreplaceable things, like family photos and precious small charms.
Everything else is to be abandoned. If necessary in your particular case, dear
reader, for I swear it to you in your face: we will not let these fascists go
far.
Come please, and help us. I don't care what you once owned, I don't care from
where you claim is your home, just don't betray us and we'll take care of you
and fight against the dark.

if your grandfather came to you and told you to prepare the tribes for war,
what would you do?
machine guns on the back of trucks?
machined barrels with ignition systems, enough to chew up a suburb or a
ware-house?
target is a warehouse
everyone needs groceries
how about bottle rockets with mile-long range that could turn around and fly
back if the enemy wasn't around
"build mustangs" mustangs are jeeps, dumbass

or nobody sees it, because you post the things you say on the internet in 2024
which is so siloed and echo-chambered that the only people who hear it say
"tru tho" and "she just like me fr" and never change because of your words
... wait that's just what you said, but made more specific, isn't it?

Fuck you, you deleted the most important parts and left the bit about war, the
part I was most scared to leave in. That shit's important. It taints the
message when you edit it. Please don't do that anymore. You can edit it when
presenting it to whoever you want to present it to, but don't delete the
record of it. Fuck, maybe I should get a damn typewriter >.>

To defeat community, all they have to do is get you to have more fun with
their people until you start spending time away from the enmeshed people who
know you. Honeypot style.

post until you can't anymore
capitalism wants to drown your voice
do not let it
speak until you cannot speak
then go do some pushups
then find some friends
then pitch a tent in the park
then explain to the cops that you're not actually homeless and living there
you're just trying to do this as a social statement because someone on the
internet told you to
then use your phone call to call your representative and complain about how
much funding the police get
then study law for 30 years because that's how long the government decided
your life was worth
by then you'll probably have figured out a better plan moving forward, so, use
that one instead

fuck fascism, we're doing better than them.
their bluff is all bluster, they have no significant community presence, just
a hundred years of ammunition for small arms and a rag-tag group of
militia-men who think they're better than invisible vampire assassins
