I'm sorry you have experienced that, comrade. I can only say that the goal is such a society where this kind of bullshit will be a thing of the past.

    thanks, but don't be; i'm convinced that i would be yet another liberal doomscrolling my life away, embittering myself further by the day because of the deep ignorance from the western propaganda like it is for some of my siblings/cousins/nephews/neices who turn to alcohol, drugs and other self destructive coping mechanisms.

    i'm convinced that my dark skin; my queerness; and my nuero-divergence have forced me to develop tools that have proven themselves useful in thwarting the asshattery that life in this late stage capitalist world throws at me.

    That's the indomitable human spirit at work, we develop the tools we need. We may not live in a just world, but we live in one where we can and will win.

    The fact that you're still a liberal after witnessing the raw face of the empire means you haven't fully woken up yet.

    i'm a liberal because most of the leftist theories requires a shit ton of reading and self education, which is going to take me decades to complete at my pace

    i suspect that the trick is to somehow modernize it beyond audio books so that there tiny little doses of theory sprinkled throughout the day like tiktok has quick and tiny doses.
