What a wild ass time to be alive in America. I'm sure our whole experiment will end well! If only everyone could just be relatively chill and not feed on drama 24 7 like it's oxygen.

That is many people's mentality, yes. It probably depends if you were the one being tortured or were close. Pain can be ignored if not directly felt, especially if it means whatever you think your survival entails.

I'm not comfortable with it, but I'm not comfortable with life either.

Oh it's finally ready to lead us now!

Guitar and guitarcirclejerk lol

Consciousness is wild. I'm pretty sure I can feel all of you in my head, for sure.

Ahh I see the strategy. Put out this trafficking movie, hype dems as pedos (and commies) and stir up a whole terd of doo doo. Classic.

I'm not uploading my ID to shit.

Both probably. Rules depends on the situation. Pushing them is how we make change in the world. Overall I'm a good boy. Passive. I will do whatever to keep the peace. But I have a rebellious streak in me, and a self loathing one apparently, and ended up with a criminal history. I am pretty meek and quiet but if you get me going I will take a stand. I think perhaps I became too flaccid at a certain point. But I've pretty much hung out with "rule breakers" my entire life up until this point now that you frame it this way. Some wild ones, too. I can't blame them at all, mostly. It just depends on which side of the law your on tbh. There is way too much nuance to this lol.

As far as social expectations as rules I usually fail miserably, but can act good enough usually. I have always avoided people. Which is why I like to come here, cause I get to write this out and now I actually feel some type of way.

Human suffering is power. Kind of crazy imo. I'm imaging a bit of ritual too, like a sacrifice.

I'm just incompetent all around 💁

Make a meal, you will get better at it every time and figure out your own method and feel. New things I use recipes for as reference. At first you will just wanna take your time and don't stress yourself out.

It took me a while to realize how fundamentally important boundaries were to my mental health and well being. It's super simple, so its often overlooked. It solves many many issues.

Criminal justice is what got me political in the first place tbh. I can abide by your line on kamala. And I would love a female president.

I've experienced a infinitesimal fraction of the bullshit, and empathize with the disillusionment. The system is dying. Trump did his damage already. That and worse are inevitable. Money in politics. Money in all of it, i mean you have people being locked up in the name of corporate, and ecobomic interest ffs. I vote in all the elections especially local because that can help shift police behavior for the better of day to day people. I didn't always vote. When trump first won I was listening on a broken wireless am radio in a shitty apt with no power or food in absolute wonder at the depravity of man and the meaning of it all for me... I didn't vote that year. Fuck me right? I didn't even know where the polls were. The people not voting are the ones pushing boundaries IMHO. What we are opposed to is the ruling class. The dnc bootlickers and fascists alike can get fucked.

Wed need the second coming of Jesus to save this version of "democracy" ffs.

👏

The system will fail eventually regardless tbh. I understand your plight. These political discussions really make me lose faith in people entirely. I didn't vote my entire life I said fuck this. I vote now only because I have the privilege to get to the ballot. The DNC seems shady. I'm thinking about just running for local office, but I'd probably get arrested tbh. I fully agree with you though. The system is rigged by definition. I've seen enough of the interworkings to be utterly disillusioned. But we are only a few people bringing light to a very dark place. It will take time that frankly we probably dont have. Stay alive!

If you even have the privilege to vote. Lol.

The fact that he went against the union in public, did some dealings to get concessions, and the news about it being pretty hush hush after the fact makes it seem even worse to me tbh."Don't get any big ideas" energy.

I think this mentality is what let's fascism take root. And capitalism has a natural bent for it. So trump has already done his worst damage imo. It's what continues to grow from it that is concerning.

I see alot of don't let perfect be the enemy of good rhetoric and it comes off to me as "I've done fairly well in this system, I'm OK with it being rigged to its core"

Any real leftist movement is quashed by design as evidenced by the rampant fascism holding us hostage...IMHO.
