if i try hard enough they will surely see that i am an earnest young man with joy in my soul and autism in my brain
a lot of anti-nataliam is leftcoded but too apathetic to be woke
i’m also very irked by the exclusive use of the first edition, as though the later editions are somehow lesser. he’s effectively picking the version of the text where it’s most easy to read his thesis and just declaring it the correct version
there’s so much more to say if you aren’t attached to the idea that the book agrees with you in some way, and if you accept that it has no single canonical reading
this video could have been much better if he had sited frankenstein in its context, but because he so wants to read his own moral positions into the text it just ends up being murky
yeah he’s since moved on to videoessayslop, it’s kinda disappointing
i am going to pelt this man with rocks how do you spend an hour talking about a standard reading of frankenstein and still make it sound contrived
i have discovered the world’s first woke anti-natalist
thought about learning a thundercat bass part and then i looked at the tabs… might just kill myself instead
farmers or some shit idk
also “poland please give us the guy who hurt the russians so we can punish him” was never going to work what were they thinking
german foreign policy since the 70s has treated eastern europe as secondary to russia, and even as poland has become more wealthy and influential it still gets treated as a minor afterthought
yeah it’s always worse than i think it is

this "Java's Crypt" thing sounds scary
yeah i’m in the same boat, particularly with respect to democracy and political structure. i assume that’s why it landed on authoritarianism?
i’m so sorry get well soon
this will eventually make you an especially reddit atheist
we’re all reddit atheists
it might be the world’s most stereotypical anarchist
