is it too much to ask for all my wildest dreams to come true without any effort on my part?

"we need a professional gendarmerie to protect us from criminals & enforce public order" plus "we should treat every one of the members of that gendarmerie as an utterly predatory worker of evil to be summoned only at direst need," wedded together, paint a grim, despairing picture of the future.

i think a good example of Propaganda Works is the number of you who think that the national Democratic Party spent the years 2013 to 2020 denouncing Americans for insufficient Tumblr-speak

i used to use the word grok. i got that from my dad, who got it from stranger in a strange land, to mean something beyond understanding, deeper. "i grok" was a more holistic knowing.
now it's the brand name for the worst AI, used by assholes to support their superficial arguments

this whole epstein thing is a prime example of why capitalism isn’t the main issue. capitalism has enabled it, but the core issue here is that patriarchy protects child rapists when they are white men. the NYT withheld this information despite money being there.

The thing that burns me most about the Epstein shit is how these disgusting hypocrites have painted us queers and kinksters as dangerous degenerates.
Meanwhile they leave a trail of bodies and broken lives and get off on the harm they cause.
Death is too good for them. I need hell to be real.

I'm not saying that "the truth is always in the middle" or people should be forced to debate everything. But surely we can recognize that we are drawn to ideas that flatter our preexisting beliefs, and that this creates extraordinary dangers for understanding the world, no matter how smart you are.

I maintain that the obvious explanation for what is happening worldwide right now is that, thanks to media fragmentation, almost every politically informed person exists within a community of ENDLESS INDULGENCE, where you are actively encouraged to embrace cathartic narratives as unimpeachably true.

Don't forget that Zohran Mamdani spent his entire campaign standing proudly beside the trans community. He went to trans rights rallies just to show support. He proudly waved trans rights flags without hesitation. He refused to back down in support of trans rights. That makes me happy.

please retire the phrase "i wish i had time to be depressed"
1) nobody has time to be depressed
2) depression doesn't care if you're busy
3) willing yourself to force through symptoms bc you have stuff to do is only effective for mild-medium depression, not severe
4) it's a shitty thing to say
