Look if you want to talk about male alienation talk about capitalism because that's the actual alienating force here. Framing it as "male loneliness" is just conceding the ground to the fascists Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

I dunno, that seems right. I keep hearing about how law enforcement makes up almost half of the population in the US. You should Google "40% police"

Consider a future where you *must* use #Windows 12 because switching to #Linux is "illegal" thanks to Age Verification nonsense. It's clear the Corpos are literally trying to remove the ability for anyone to use compute without their gatekeeping. The time to fight that is now.

A Jesus lady tried to proselytize to me at the train station today and like honestly ma’am the status of my immortal soul is the least of my concerns right now

Some California Dems propose eliminating income tax for families below 100k and the libs on here are acting like it's the collapse of civilization, because they legitimately think taxes are *good.* I find this personally hilarious because I proposed the policy in 2018: c4ss.org/content/51277

it is my sincere belief that you could have a butlerian jihad party whose sole purpose was to put big tech in its grave and beat both democrats and republicans at the polls

Every day is shut the fuck up Friday. Shutting the fuck up doesn't just affect you, it affects your friends. Solidarity with all who shut the fuck up.

It’s ridiculous what they are trying to do in Prairieland. One of the defendants wasn't even at the demonstration but is facing charges for removing people from a signal chat. Pay attention to Prairieland because this is how they will come for all of us. Free Dario Sanchez! Free Des! Free them all!

We have a verdict and we are heartbroken at the results. This is only the beginning. We will continue to fight the remaining charges until every defendant is home.

I think I may have cracked it

Can this be a solution?

In less than two weeks, the US government has already spent more money bombarding Iran than it will contribute to cancer research this entire year. Probably *a great deal* more money. They would rather let you die, so long as you fear them while you are living. crimethinc.com/IranWar2026

I bought 4 AAA batteries at the Amish store bc they were only $2 then just ran the whole pack through the washer and dryer. I'm not funny but I feel like there's a joke here.

we keep saying to israeli and american jewish leaders that their decisions, made near universally without communal input, imperil our physical security and they keep telling us our input is unwelcome

i am not an educator so maybe this is dumb, but can we not just like, go back to readings and class discussions? i did most of my upper division and graduate work in college out of sheer fear of the socratic method

I'm really excited to share some music with everyone. I'm lucky enough to be working with some incredible musicians and I think what we're doing is really special. It's free to download so I hope you'll check it out and keep following along as we put out more. lunarwake.bandcamp.com/track/we-hav...

Obligatory clip:

That's why I'm so against ChatGPT. I'm against letting a machine do your homework for you. I think you should cling to Doing Your Homework Yourself like it's the last opportunity you have to liberate yourself from mental enslavement. Because it basically is. Anyway shout out to Kai Cenat.

I think a lot of us millennials & older really take it for granted that we were the last of only a couple generations where there was an all-encompassing campaign to encourage literacy. Everyone used to agree upon it. There were commercials with your favorite celebrities just being like, "READ!"

True independent thinkers don't change their clocks just because everyone else does. I will do my own research and determine what time it is

don’t forget to destroy your clocks tonight, walk away from your mortgage, just start driving, you’re free

We could probably prevent a number of wars if men would listen to "Return of the Mack" daily while flexing in the mirror... www.youtube.com/watch?v=uB1D...

i feel like this is all happening cause we stopped pumping up the jam

Once again, the US has been trying to dictate who controls Iran since BEFORE EPSTEIN WAS BORN. There have been consistent, influential Iran warhawks in US foreign policy circles agitating for war on Iran for many decades. That is NOT the sole explanation for this war.

Again, re “Trump’s Iran war is *just* to distract from the Epstein Files” crowd: The US has tried to exert control over who rules Iran since before Jeffrey Epstein was BORN.

2026 word of the year is going to be "psychosis"

I'm not being cute or woo or Pollyanna here. Relationships are how you build political power. They are incapable of building deep relationships, which means they are ultimately incapable of building deep and lasting power. They eventually turn on each other and destroy themselves.

They're so ANGRY that we take care of each other, and not just angry. So CONFUSED by it. And that is why we will win

There is no moral case for the continued existence of borders full stop. Freedom of movement is a human right and a necessary safety valve against the excesses of national, eugenic, and colonial violence.

This is backed up of course by racists generally in the colonial nations that have historically benefited from the wealth plundered from the colonised improving our quality of life. But the fact remains that there's no conceivable justification to restrict free movement of people.

The only humane compromise is no borders 💜🖤

There's no meaningful justification for why the place of your birth gives anyone authority over where you should be allowed to live. The only reason hard borders exist is so that governments and the rich who own them can manage and control worker movements.

this is completely insane and more people need to say that doing this is completely insane

They shouldn't allow videos of podcasts. That content should get taken down

&, on the one hand, i don't want to be too harsh, people are getting there, baby steps & all that on the other, i can't say i'm overwhelmed with the intellectual rigour of some of these pieces -- example today from the atlantic

there been a bunch of fascism articles recently whose argument goes: 1. the annoying alarmist dipshits said a bunch of stupid stuff 2. yet somehow, what they predicted ended up happening 3. waffle around vaguely for a bit, without ever reconciling 1 & 2

Roman statue fascist bewildered by *checks notes* the concept of courage

Not getting killed by ICE is easy, simply avoid driving a car or holding up your phone anywhere near wherever ICE is operating (everywhere)

The thing that haunts me the most at night is that they're going to kill another person in the next few weeks. They're going to kill another and another and another and another until we fucking stop them Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

Greg Bovino got his start in the police department of Boone, NC, a small town not far from us. There are men like him in every police department, and they kill 1,000+ people a year. They're never held accountable. Abolishing ICE is necessary but insufficient. #AbolishThePolice

ABOLISH ICE. ABOLISH THE POLICE. DEATH TO CAPITALISM AND SETTLER COLONIALISM. ALL CARE FOR ALL PEOPLE.

Kurdistan needs us. Rojava needs us. Wherever you are, however you can. Speak up for Rojava, they are mounting a heroic defense of Aleppo. My friend died defending the Rojava Revolution. It will not be in vain. Her Bijî Rojava! Jin, Jiyan, Azadî!

Three years ago today, Georgia state police murdered Tortuguita as part of their drive to destroy the Weelaunee Forest and build a deadly police militarization center. Tort fought for a world without police and capitalism, and so should we. Viva, viva Tortuguita.

I was telling one of my kids that it was physically impossible for an ad to play between songs on any of the records I own, and they asked "and you only have to pay for it once?" and you could see how strange that seemed. You cannot overstate how many basic rules of media consumption have changed.
