    Vibes based politics, history is not the antagonism of classes, it's the antagonism of good personality traits obviously, that's why really nice people like Napoleon did so well

      They should’ve accepted Hitler into art school and this whole mess could’ve been avoided

        We all know that artists can never be racist. Salvador Dali fought so much fascism they had to kick him out of th surrealists because he was too busy fashing the fash.

        Definitely how that played out.

      People who think material conditions are irrelevant and that history is shaped by the Myers-Briggs category of the Great Man in question.

      Idiots just hear fancy theory words and then use them in random amalgamations to feel smart don't they?

      Like this is so common I wonder if there is a term for it. Sort of a linguistic version of Dunning-Kruger?

        It's the politics version of the thumb shaped cop saying shit like "I ascertained the kinetic threat quadrangle hypothalamus ordinance of the pursuit vehicle service weapon" to describe backing out of a parking lot.

      People who need to come up with a reason for why believing in and standing for nothing is actually better than having principles and trying to improve the world.

      There are alot of psychology-major and docorate soc-dems who absolutely believe this, as it gives them an academic reason for their passive compliance with a system rife with inherent violence to distract from the fact they inherently profit from it because the more trauma there is, the more there is a need for their services.

      I've literally heard it said irl, this chuckle-fuck isn't smart enough to create this argument, he's aping it from people who actually went to school.

    At least chuds are entertaining in how unhinged and off the wall their takes are. There’s a ton of mental gymnastics needed to explain how bike lanes are a Marxist plot to destroy white Christian culture but gymnastics have spectacle. Centrists are pure annoyance because they’re the pure embodiment of unearned patronizing.

    centrists are more annoying than chuds, liberals are more annoying than centrists, socdems are more annoying than liberals

    expectations are higher the closer you get to humanity. it's why the weyland-yutani corporation is more hateable than the xenomorphs

    not narcissism = hoarding wealth like a dragon

    narcissism = giving food to hungry people, giving housing to the homeless

    Is it really "old left history" when socdems & libs keep repeating the same BS? Like everything that lenin wrote is still true, even "the economist" is still there.
