1. MAGA/Q movement

  2. Joe Rogan-esque reactionaries who have a softer stance on "hippie" things

  3. Younger people are forced to live with their parents longer because capitalism

  4. Prison system sucks and feeds people slop

Weird to see how all these things converge in a person.

    When my vegan friend was arrested during Occupy, he was denied medical attention for a fractured wrist and stitches on his face, and they only fed him bologna sandwiches, but yeah, go off about your organic meals, bro

      That's the thing though, right? I wonder if he'll realize that if they're feeding him things he doesn't want to eat, then maybe they're doing that to everyone else. And if it's so traumatizing to him to not eat organic, what about all those other people who subsist off chemical pemmican? This could be a moment for a broader consciousness but I wonder if he'll just dismiss it by thinking it's only happening to him because he's a Q guy.

          Everyone joins the AB or Peckerwoods when they go to certain places because that's how prisons works. Everyone joins their respective ethnic gangs for protection, even if you don't agree with them. That is unless you are put in special protection or whatever.

              To be fair, the Hispanics and Blacks outnumber the whites in many of the places, so it's not even that they are reinforcing white supremacy, white bois would get fucked up if they didn't have each others backs.

                I met an ex con who claimed to be in the AB. Said the almost all the guys in the AB in his prison weren’t actual white supremacists, most had non-white friends in the prison. But if you were a white dude it was what you did.

            This is a laughably simplistic view of prison that fits into the propaganda they show on those prison gang reality tv shows. Do you actually know anyone who's done time or are you just regurgitating FUD?

              when i was in prison i operated more as an unallied opportunist, forming alliances of convenience with the muslims and even Simon Adebisi once or twice. even the guards were afraid of him until like Season 4.

                fair enough. most of my friends that did time in state and/or feds didn't have that experience, though one did (at one of the handful of prisons he wound up in) with the shameful odinist tats to prove it.

                any way you slice it, they're incredibly brutal and inhumane here whether the warden's acheived complete racial segregation or not

                makes stories like Jimmy Baca's that much more impressive

        experiencing injustice firsthand is not in itself enough to radicalize someone. most people don't come out of prison as prison abolitionists.

      and they only fed him bologna sandwiches

      I'd be almost convinced they did this on purpose but meat in one's diet is so heavily ingrained as the default in this country that most wouldn't even think about why he was only eating the bread and picking the bologna out of the sandwich. And that's assuming they didn't serve the sandwiches with mayo inside already, tainting the bread even more.

      • LangdonAlger [any]

        they did but the mayo spread was so cheap and artificial it was technically vegan, so he traded his bologna for mayo bread with the other prisoners

    This is one of those “non-organic food is covered in/filled with xenoesteogens that will turn my penis inside out and make me a beta” things, isn’t it?

      To be fair, one of the most common pesticides in America, atrazine, which has been shown to be present in the drinking water of many US cities in levels far exceeding what it should be, has shown to have hormone disrupting side effects and been linked to micro-penises in infants in Brazil and disturbances in the development of males.

      https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i5uSbp0YDhc&ab_channel=Oki%27sWeirdStories

      This is a good video going over all the facts and the attempts by the companies making atrazine to silence the researcher who found the early links, their corruption of the governmental offices, and how they made it out to be a cooky conspiracy what Alex Jones was saying.

      All in all, Viking Shaman is correct in that he should demand organic food.

          He's a wotanist white supremacist.

          I don't give a shit if he's technically "mentally ill", he's garbage and anyone defending him is garbage.

    I read a tweet somewhere the right was trying to paint this guy as a lefty cause the spotted him at an environmental rally or protest a year or two ago. And the reporter did a bit more digging or interviewed him and it turns out he is just an ecofascist lol I didn't like or bookmark the tweet and saw it last night otherwise I'd link it it genuinely doesn't surprise me in the least
