I mean, what we know about MKULTRA is what CIA decided to release about it. It's not a coincidence.

A tangent but am I the only one who's weirded out by the incredible popularity of the whole isekai thing?

As a kid I used to love reading stories based on by favorite games and enjoyed seeing dry stats substituted with good description. Now people seem to want the opposite. They want the protagonist to have levels xp and shit like that. A kind of a map of a map of map thing.

Dunno, the fact that's it's gotten huge as a mainstream genre rubs me the wrong way. That's probably how boomers feel about everything.

I lean more towards ML than anarchism, but in my experience there's a bigger intersection between vegans and anarchists and anarchist subs on reddit are more supportive of veganism than general leftist ones. There is even a somewhat active r/veganarchism.

I'm not sure why it is this way but it makes me think there's something to this whole anarchism thing...

So which parts of this you guys think are not true? This is not genocide genocide obviously (people claim it's a "cultural" genocide, right?), but it still doesn't look good.

What's the deal with leftcoms saying they are not leftists? (hexbear.net)
 

I've visited the r/ultraleft sub and they are all really angry about it. Is this some kind of meme?

In awe of the power of the lib brain that goes straight to "Holodomor, Great Leap Forward, Bernie lost" when someone implies they are to the left of them. Not sure how you're supposed to argue with that.
