I understand your point and frustration but the impasse we are at here I believe is that the avg hexbear user would claim liberal democracy will ALWAYS trend in this direction. The system is what it does. Sure, I think it’s good to elect strong socialist-adjacent progressives in your local areas to improve the life of working class people, but (someone correct me I’m mistaken) the philosophical position here is that the end result of the system is always fascism and capitalist dictatorship. It will always trend to this conclusion.

I’m not interested in casual gay sex, but if I was, please provide specifics

This is again similar to what the system claims vs. what the system produces/actually functions. We do have elections, but we also have like 66% voter turnout and we also have studies indicating massively popular policies never get passed (e.g. universal healthcare, tax billionaires, etc). Free press is debatable. All US mainstream news outlets are owned by the billionaire class, hardly any of them speak pro Palestine positions. Manufacturing Consent does a good job explaining how the US supposedly free press functions to ultimately peddle state department talking points and status quoisms.

Unforgivable

It helps to be movie star handsome as well

This guy needs to get minecrafted immediately

This 💯

Not to misuse a term but it essentially feels like continued masking, it takes mental effort and is absolutely not relaxing.

I wonder, then, what is the precise moment where the supposed benefit of pouring coffee up your butt outweighs the supposed risk of pouring coffee up your butt?

Curious.

Looking into it…

For a USian liberal, voting for Harris is like receiving absolution from your sins, like going to a confessional on Sunday then continuing to sin on Monday. You cannot remove this absolution from them or they will be forced to confront their unearned privilege of existing in an evil neocolonial empire.

Imo people have the worst reasons for disliking Evangelion. The shit rocks and all current anime sucks.

Gotta update the recipe to include even more sawdust!

But what if one year of outdoor living and exploration provides more positive experience to the cat than a lifetime of indoor life? Obviously not a provable thought, but something I consider… a ship docked is safe etc etc

This is a beautiful sentiment I’m glad you expressed it, I totally agree with you. It is ultimately tragic.

Please just make society good instead of bad, why is this so difficult? Universal healthcare, please!

Cut to the video: <Kermit voice> “…certainly not as catchy as ‘Man to Man’ but Dorian continues to impress and develop their style with new song…”

Is it very incorrect to consider socialism as a deliberate pathway to communism? Asking sincerely

I’d be so embarrassed to be this person, yikes

Ugh, I hope she gets knocked the fuck out

“slightly leaning into that” is a very relatable phrase

2001 and The Shining are enough to put Kubrick at the top for me (I am an elitist) but easy rewatchability goes to Spielberg for sure, Jurassic Park, Jaws, E.T., Indiana Jones, etc.

Nolan is by far the least impressive of the 4 but his movies are entertaining.
