Comradeship // Freechat@lemmygrad.ml•What's the consensus on the theory that people in the US knew that 9/11 (the good one) was in the works but allowed it to happen anyway?English
25·4 days agoby that time the CIA effectively ruined millions of lives by orchestrating the destruction of the socialist states with their intelligence activities. it doesnt make any sense how every intelligence agency was perfect for orchestrating the atrocities that ended the cold war but they suddenly become stupid when it comes to “ terrorism”.
they knew it was coming but it was good for them because it was the perfect way to manufacture consent for the oil wars. they made “muslims” as a whole a vague threat because this basically allowed them to say every nation in western Asia is a piece of shit radical islamist hellhole and thus its fine to invade them.
i think that our elites know when a “ terrorist “ attack is gonna happen but they allow it because it manufacturers consent for the oil wars. these “ terrorist “ attacks dont really harm the leaders or the capitalist system.
those 2000 something workers that died in 9/11 were long replaced, that fear goes such a long way that even 25 yrs later people still support israel.
even better, it created a cultural war between americans who gleefully joke about it vs those traumatized by it, making class conciousness even harder to achieve. there are no downsides for western governments.

Ask Lemmygrad@lemmygrad.ml•I'm writing a video essay on social murder. Who has the guaranteed right to continue living?English
8·4 days agonot really cultural advice but more of a gentle request, could your essay perhaps also focus on the aftermath of social death for those who can ”reintegrate”? i never see people talk about how it feels when youre technically no longer a drug addict or homeless but you still have the memories of people not even giving you eye contact and how it impacts your view of humanity in general. i think this could nail in how long lasting it is.

Comradeship // Freechat@lemmygrad.ml•I miss being a liberal :(English
8·5 days agoits not good to say you miss being a western chauvinist right now because as we speak the US military is on vacation to thailand en masse and you can assume whats happening. do you miss a time in your life where you would turn a blind eye to the US military going around and raping? because thats that ideology supports

19·5 days agorespectfully (and with love) you didnt enjoy politics. you enjoyed participating in the illusion and fitting in with those around you. thats not politics. i think its important you step away for a while and see what you TRULY believe in because you said this is about a trend and your social life yet again.
also, what do you actually believe in? if you truly were that disgusted by liberalism you wouldnt even dare express a desire to be a western chauvinist and you wouldnt use the term ”schizophrenic islamist”.

Comradeship // Freechat@lemmygrad.ml•Do you ever feel demoralized when you realize you’re the oldest person in your area?English
8·6 days agooften times when kids are ahead they have things severely wrong with them whether it be industry exploitation, feeling isolated from their peers etc.
they often have something very bad coming for them too because theyre sorrounded by evil people. maybe its an evil manager, maybe its a parent who pays for their private tutoring. when you have high skills at a young age it often comes from people pouring money into you and that will come back to bite them at some point. hence why many child stars find themselves in deep financial issues later in life.
i think we become better with age and the experience we acquire. a bit of a lore drop but in my early teens i was trying to get into the music industry and had a grand plan to run away to L.A and even had contacts there and found some songwriting opportunities. im forever thankful that never took off because kids get chewed up and spit out in there…

26·7 days agosometimes for just a moment i resent non-communists because they get to be stupid and unaware of the greater evils of the world. i know i know it’s not a personal issue and we SHOULD feel uncomfortable because the system NEEDS to be changed but it still sucks. just a few minutes ago i was taking a shit and looking up why people look down on blue collars workers. i got into a bit of a rabbithole about how corporate workers also have it reallllyyy bad but they shame blue collar workers to feel better and i got overwhelmed because 1. we need to have empathy for corporate workers too 2. we need to unite workers of all kinds against the actual threat and started to think about the magnitude of said task. everyday its like this and it feels so lazy to even say i would like a mental break because the system doesnt take a break ever.

20·9 days agolol in europe theres a weird situation where we are divided between who supports the west vs russia and within those camps there are left-right sides (eg. ”russia is a pure christian state that helps us curb western perversion” vs. ”russia is an anti imperialist state and only they can fight the west”, AFD must be in the first camp.

12·9 days agoyes its common place to leave your bottles out in Japan. yes there was a documented serial killer (still out there, not caught) who poisoned them for people to drink. yes there is a documented phenomenon where men piss in women’s water bottles.


i’m also currently living in an abusive situation and its a really piece of shit situation. you feel like you’re outside looking in at humanity and you kind of understand why others cant exactly save you but it still hurts in a very primal way. i’m avoiding college right now because i know it won’t be a pleasant experience in my current circumstances.
you should give yourself some grace and congratulations for graduating, it’s hard and not everyone can go through it. even “half assed” is more than many of us can achieve.
my favourite cope is knowing that this is just a part of history as it goes… every single generation has some really shitty things they went through but eventually survived. our burden to carry is that we have a shit job market and we have had to stay in abusive situations. boomers had to stay in abusive marriages with people they didnt really like, gen xers were neglected, millennials had a shit job market to deal with etc. it helps to think of our pain not as an individual torture but rather as a collective experience.
i’m not gonna do the whole “get a roommate” or “rent a room” or “work for free for 2 weeks and then they will hire you” advice that everybody gives, i’m sure you know about these issues and can/cannot do them. the only way we have out is a job and saving up enough to move. i’ll think about you
