  • Must be all those craaazy females

    and the crazy men that argued with him, too! They're equally to blame for the escalation that led to this horrid comment:

    im not questioning that you’ve been radicalized. im calling you a self centered delusional fascist wearing a communist mask to feel like a good person, and you’re not either thing. you’;d know it if you were capable of being honest about yourself. fuck you for existing, you’re the reason humanity is a lost cause.







  • yeah since I don't need to wake up early for online school my sleep schedule is the weirdest it's ever been. It got to the point where I was waking up so late that I looped back around into waking up early again, like I was waking up at 5 PM, 7 PM, 9 PM, and then I stayed up for a few extra hours and now I'm back to waking up at 5 AM and sleeping by 7 PM. I'm gonna be so sad when I have to get another job and I can't just do stuff like this anymore





  • I think I read somewhere that expressive faces just weren’t a big concern in Medieval art. It became standard to depict personal expression during the Renaissance iirc and probably has something to do with humanism if I had to guess

    Okay I found where I got it from

  • I get where you are coming from, but I just don’t see why Navalny would stop the suffering of tens of millions of Russians. He’s western-aligned, a nationalist, and a capitalist. He would just be another neoliberal bastard who sells out his country for money. He claims to be anti-corruption and pro-democracy, but those two things don’t suddenly improve the lives of tens of millions of people.

    But, since you are actually Russian, you probably understand the situation much better than me, so I could be completely wrong. I don’t want to speak as if I know the political climate in Russia more than an actual Russian



  • There’s this really stupid multi-panel image called “death of a hobby” or something like that, and it’s basically this incel chart that details the stages of how nerdy hobbies /subcultures slowly get coopted and transformed as evil womans and normal people join in

    Basically the initial stage is that the hobby is dominated by a dedicated group of hobbyists who know the hobby inside and out, they genuinely enjoy doing it and develop a subculture around it. Then, friends of friends start joining in, but they don’t know the rules and care more about using the hobby as a means to socialize and meet with other people

    Eventually, the hobby itself becomes so watered down that the original people leave, going off to start a new thing, where the cycle starts again.

    Anyways, I find that if you get rid of the sexism and change it around a little, it can describe how liberals infest and coopt social movements. There may be a few good-natured libs who join BLM thinking they truly do want to participate in black liberation, but since they lack proper material analysis and politics besides “we can fix racism by winning hearts and minds” they just completely miss the point of radical groups, stripping them of their revolutionary character. After a few years, the movement becomes an empty husk you use to hang out with friends and take photos at. The original communist/radicals in the movement then have to leave and join another radical group

    If I can find the original image I will link it

    okay i found it



  • I thought antifa was an explicitly anarchist/socialist thing, what with the red and black flags in the logo. But OP isn’t even a socialist based off his post history.

    So I guess it’s good that libs are joining radical antifascist movements, but it’s also really shitty that they get to scold actual long-time activists as Russian agents and just generally project their shitty American-exceptionalism
