I had COVID about a month and a half ago. I haven’t noticed too many long term symptoms as of yet but I have had tighter lungs than i usually do.
I don’t know if it’s a coincidence cuz I’ve also had uncharacteristically bad allergies/sinus problems this season (I always have bad allergies but it’s been crazy bad the last 2-3 months).
But yea a bit of difficulty catching full breaths but that’s all I’ve noticed thus far
Yeah I was just like “why am I even using this app”and just came back here lol
I’ll always cum with you daddy uwu
There was a thread on /dankleft today full of western chauvinism. Literally indistinguishable from any given lib sub half the time

I agree. I mean realistically there’s not really much of a logical reason to be weird about it other than societal conditioning. Anecdotal but for me, every “preference” I had growing up was some kind of internalized prejudice.
I used to say I didn’t like non-white people as a preference because when I was little I remember the people around me coming down really hard on that “races shouldn’t mix” and then I just let that go, and honestly genital stuff was kind of the same way.
The sooner society moves passed essentializing an entire human being down to their genitals the better tbh. But that’s just my view on it
There is a lot of stuff that puts it in your head that it’s not right. Even just every one calling stuff “gay” in the 90s and 00s helps reinforce that.
personally, I finally moved past it at some point. I’m still not into guys but I’m perfectly capable of seeing penis on a woman as femenine and attractive now. Definitely internalized antipenis feelings for more than 25 years before tho.
Tbf that data is for here, I’d have to wonder what percentage of Bernie bro people didn’t make it onto ostensibly communist/socialist sites. I’d expect it’d absolutely dwarf the people who did but that’s just my expectation.
I think what you’re saying is fine for the most part I just think it’s fine to point out on a site ostensibly for socialists that it’s not quite on point. And even for someone to maybe softy challenge anyone saying otherwise. Not saying to just go “fuck you lib” but people have to learn about the rest of the shit and why settler states having healthcare isn’t the end goal at some point.
Anyway have a happy new year comrade
I mean I still think it’s good to criticize these things to point out that they’re not socialism to reaffirm that division especially for any baby leftist that may have stumbled in from Bernie or whatever as you say.
As far as what amount of Bernie bros end up subscribing to any given tendency of socialism and what just stay libs or whatever (stupidpol has a high amount of them as I understand it) without any data, we’d just be arguing over which of our intuitions are correct.
I’m not saying there’s not a few people who may make it through but it’s still good to reaffirm what it is we’re about, and also the main thing I took issue with really is the idea that we’re being too “purist” for not accepting something that’s not only patently not socialism as part of our ideology, but something that really is inherently antithetical to it in every way that really counts.
Lol so what I’ve learned today is that politifact or whatever it is site exists to basically say “lol it’s complicated tho” about bad shit libs do
Both: how dare he stand with that monster :angery:
I used to have a coworker that had a giant “rig” set to rip as big of a cloud as possible.
It was wild, walking into a room he was in was like walking into a trap music video.
Also it always had a sweet chemically smell that was revolting
Well yea and also their ideas are a lot more palatable to the status quo then full socialism. They’ve spent 70 years red scaring and demonizing our ideas. The policies that soccdems like Bernie and these kinds of tweets espouse have historically been reserved to throw out as a way to assuage revolutionary fervor but 2020 kind of showed us that that may be a thing of the past.
Either way I think it’s fair to say it’s not representative of anything we’d want to see as a change in the order of things, generally. And again settler colonial states robbing developing countries to half ass take care of their own people while still being ruled by capital is simply not good enough with the world being in as dire of a situation as it is.
The fact that real socialism is harder to get across than social Democrat ideas in a bourgeois capital state really isn’t as much of an indictment of “read theory” people as much as it is on the control of the status quo and framing of which ideas are acceptable by organizations such as the cia and capital controlled media/education.
Wasn’t aware of this but I loved Lisa.
Edit: watched the trailer I’m 1000% into this
Gonna have to disagree friend.
These tweets are at best inconsequential, what this person is advocating for isn’t in line with what we want as socialists and is just misleading people and muddying communication.
If someone is coming into the fold it’s because they heard about our ideals and agreed with them not because they liked some radlibs misunderstanding of what socialism is. It’s entirely likely that they’d be rebuffed by actual socialism if they entered into a community thinking they were getting Canada health care.
Also I feel like maybe we shouldn’t put the line at which point we consider people being purist at “liberals wanting a capitalist colonial power but a bit nicer to its poor people and doing imperialism all over to pay for it.”
Finishing all my bcis work in 10 minutes so I could spend the rest of the class playing that stupid pants guy game
Hold on gramma! I’m entering the the cvv numbers now!
