Whats the best defense against woke idpolers?

Should gambling be illegal? Will gambling be legal under socialism? Do you gamble?

Do you feel more tired, slow, fatigued, depressed?
What are some changes you've noticed besides the physical, changes in your lifestyle or way of thinking?

Why is Israel looked down upon and condemned, while US landback is praised and championed?



Why is electoralism looked down upon, while doing nothing is praised and championed?



Why is UBI looked down upon and not seen favorably, while romantic and sexual AI is praised and revered?

Who would you vote for if these were the candidates in the 2028 U.S. presidential election?

Thoughts on Yukio Mishima?
What about his position of being pro-violence?

Thread inspired by the headlight click beetle.

Post cool animals, bonus points if they have weird powers or cool designs or I haven't heard of them before.

1. CIA hits Matt Christman with an autofellatio gun, leaving him permanently crippled
2. Their 'guy' Alex steps in to take his place. Smooth talking sarcastic Bill Murray type (fed).
3. """Alex""" keeps tabs on the Chapos & their audience, examining & subtly modifying the material, always ready to sneak in coded messages to CIA sleeper agents.

Doesn't it seem odd to you?
I noticed that even when his jokes are funny, the other Chapos laugh kind of nervously. His delivery is almost too good, like he was tailor made to be appealing, unlike Matt, who was very smart, but sounded like a big fat dorky homo. What do you guys think?

This is a public service announcement!
If you don't have a gun and bullets, you are part of the problem.
If you make excuses for not being armed, you are part of the problem.
If you wallow in neurotic bullshit instead of doing your part to prepare to support the revolution, you are part of the problem.

>but the discourse!
Doesn't matter.
>but Americans aren't revolutionary!
Neither are you, faggot. Fix that!
>but according to a thing someone wrote at some point, and which I probably read on Twitter if we're being honest, my material conditions aren't ideal!
Don't care. If you think you're not the right class for revolution, then be a "class traitor." We will not care as long as you actually do something of value.
>but what if something bad happens?
What if a wizard zaps you the moment you stop being a helpless little whiny baby who thinks anyone who tries to encourage you to learn to walk is a fed. Take first steps, I guarantee you will be better off.
>um, you don't understand, it's hopeless!
I do understand and I don't care because individual perception of "hope" is totally unimportant. Only pursuit of victory increases the odds of victory, and this is true regardless of what those odds are at the beginning. If you think there's no hope, then don't rely on hope; simply take stock of the reality of the current situation, and understand that you have no choice but to do what you can to stop it. Understand that it is horrible and that it is getting worse, and let that drive you to create a future where it is better. Let your hate for the empire, for the lies you were told, for the way it destroyed you and tricked you into thinking that everything, the entire economy itself, was all your fault motivate you to destroy it, that we can build something better. A doomed man can be free from fear of retribution; he has no excuse in hopelessness to explain personal inaction, only carelessness and insincerity can adequately explain it.

This article was one of my favorite class readings in my undergrad Communication Ethics class way back in 2013. When I read it Peter Singer's ideas at the time outraged me, but living through my own experience as an autistic adult, and seeing my mom martyr herself to be a slave for my even more disabled brother has changed my perspective. My argument is simple: pre-natal testing for disabilities should be mandatory, and any fetus found to be possibly disabled should be subjected to a state mandated abortion.

My brother lives with Level 2 autism and severe mental illness. At the height of his illness he was a zombie and couldn't even wipe his own ass he had gained so much weight. While he is thankfully now living his best life, my mom continues to infantilize him, washing and wiping his ass and balls daily. She is at the point where she feels like she will have a heart attack if things don't change, but she also refuses to put him in a group home or even just re-teach him to be more independent. She thinks if she doesn't do everything for him that he will literally die.

Now these are consequences of capitalism, but even in a perfect socialist society that was compassionate to the disabled, we would still have a lower quality of life and be at a disadvantage than our neurotypical and/or able bodied peers. Severe OCD, anxiety, and ASD led me to give up on a lot of my career goals and dreams. I now work a simple wfh job doing the same daily repetitive tasks. If I didn't have these disabilities, I would be able to live on my own and probably could have become a filmmaker, public historian, archivist, etc. I'm really sick of disability activists saying we shouldn't try to cure disability, and hysterically claiming pre-natal testing is eugenics.
