I had a sus interaction with one of the staff on traaa, a year ago, but I really don’t wanna reveal it, because I’m not sure if they’re still there. It was like traumatic bad, but maybe not intentionally so. I’m still hiding from hexbear.

Your comment history passes the vibe test.

No, Signalis Replikas.

Yeah

These are my beliefs:

China is a semi-periphery country: They are exploited by finance and by unequal exchange, but they also benefit from looking the other way when they import commodities from periphery countries like cobalt from the DRC.

China is undermining the monopolies on investment, IPs, and advanced commodities necessary for industrialization that the West has held control over, and in doing so they’re making it easier for periphery countries to industrialize and free themselves from neocolonialism, which helps anti-imperialist struggle.

However, you should not make the mistake of assuming they’re doing this because they’re good, you’d be a really bad historical materialist if you believed that. They do what they do because it’s in their material interests as a semi-periphery country. They’ve escaped the control of imperialism, so they’re free now to act towards their own interests instead of being slaves to the interests of international finance. That is to be expected and is definitely an improvement.

The contradiction between the periphery and the semi-periphery does need to be resolved, though, they need to be united.

He better do it.

I definitely don’t care about going car-free for national security reasons. The only people who care about “national security” are conservatives. I couldn’t give a fuck about Canada’s national security.

Not just bikes.

Looks inside.

Bikes.

Use of force is by any state is unchecked state power, and having multiple parties does not imply democracy, nor make things more democratic.

But yes, I actually do support giving proletarian communists (specifically women and minorities) guns, so that the state can be terrorized into not making reactionary compromises that will lead to doom.

Yeah, like I’m trans and it seems like the majority of people want to erase me for it. Do we just let that go on until we have a democratic consensus that trans people actually do exist while 3,000 people are socially murdered in the time we wait?

It’s the same for capitalist and imperialist oppression. Pro-imperialist or pro-capitalist ideologies or ideologies that comprimise with capitalism or imperialism are not neutral and shouldn’t be respected just because a majority of people have them. People who who end up supporting liberalism or fascism should be oppressed.

black people, immigrants, and indigenous people too. atp, to stop the constant social murder and actual murder, we’ve got to force it on people. I don’t want to become radicalized and lose my life or some shit fighting against the state, but if they’re just letting people get lynched again, then I have to.

The above image really did happen to me, though.

Men benefit from it. They benefit both from raping people with impunity and from being one of the good ones who doesn’t.

Literally do not care if they weren’t popular or didn’t have elections. It was necessary that they suppressed the SRs, because democratic socialists are idealists who will run you into the ground. The majority of Russians were antisemitic, does that mean that’s just fine?

Admirable

The DSA cannot at all be compared to the groups I was talking about because they fail at one of the main requirements, to be an anti-imperialist movement, their candidates have like backed out from every meaningful thing. They are not really “democratic socialists” they are closer to social democrats.

I thought you were talking about some mythical social democrats or something, based on your language and talking about votes in European countries. My brain turned off after I read the words oligarchic corpocracy. I thought you were a garden variety rad-lib. First person I’ve known who supports the SRs it didn’t even register in my brain.

Nobody is gonna get this reference, are they?

Not really, no.

You don’t have to be mentally ill to be religious. Some people just grew up with it and see it as their reality, and some people adopted it. Most religious people are not more or less mentally ill than the average religious none or atheist.
