    This reminds me to talk to my therapist about how miserable this ideology makes me, even if I believe it to my core, lol

      Communism actually made me less sad, because it shows that there is a way to make shit less fucked, instead of complete doomer brain.

      LMFAO yeah I brought up the particular flavor of left misery to my therapist and she uhhhhh. Well she didn't know what to do with it at first but I think she is starting to understand.

      My hope is that this book will at least give some historical context to this flavor of misery you know? I did the free preview thing from Kindle and it made think a lot about the Kraz Mazov quote from disco Elysium, about how learning theory makes you correct and sad

      Now you’re sad for a valid reason, instead of being a conservative or liberal sad because the ideology is failing and you can’t understand why. Having valid actions you can take to be less miserable is an upgrade.
