    I find it fascinating how nowadays, basic human decency is called “woke” and “communism”.

      It’s the primary symptom of being infected with the broke mind virus, which effectively all republicans suffer.

      I think this is why we’ll never have a UBI/leisure society/Star Trek style utopia. We are miserable biological apes and revel in other’s misery.

        Fuck that; this aggressively horrible crab bucketing is cultivated. Pretending decades of capitalist propaganda every god damn second of your waking life while you live in a fantasy wirld based on nonsense abstractions is ‘just a staye of nature’ is insane.

            Its where we are, and whay has been done, it is tge past we must reckon with, but it is not the default for humanity, and it was wrought by human hands.

            If it can be made by us, it can be unmade by us.

              Amen brother. Anyone who says “that’s just the way it is” is giving up. That’s not the way it is, that’s the way it was MADE. By powerful evil people, and we can remake it.

                Please don’t assume masculinity, but yes.

                I would phrase as ‘that’s the way it is because of constant work to make it that way, and it was not and will not always be that way’.

      There’s plenty of studies showing that conservatism, sadism, and psychopathy correlate.

          This is one of the main reasons Republicans don’t like education. They want to dismantle it and go to a charter system. That way they can profit off education and keep people stupid.
