Knew a guy. Young dude, former military but broke his back during parachute training exercise so out on disability fully. 4k+ a month. Lives in a 4 bedroom house in a modest, rural town. Constantly complained about never having enough money. Dude would spend damn near half his monthly check on new accessories for his collection or a new piece. Every month.

Dude was selfish as fuck and such an idiot. Didn't know until I had to live with him. Glad I'm not stuck there even if life is technically harder.

Literally annoyed right now because some dimwit fighting ghosts, saying that I was advocating for tolerance of right-wing fascism, because I said that the Balkanization strategy was not the strat in reply to a third individual's comment.

Also trying to say something about vulcanization, but idk what the chemical process of mixing rubber with sulfur has to do with geopolitics.

[–] Crankenstein@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago

Vulcanization is a chemical process of rubber by treating it with sulfur. You have no clue what you are talking about and it is obvious. You want to call me worked up?

How about you stop getting so worked up trying to be morally righteous, fighting ghosts of your own creation and "GTFO" with your fallacious assumptions misrepresenting my argument. None ever said that we have to tolerate fascists.

Did you just not fucking read the top comment in this thread by shikotohno, that specifically said to rely on BALKANIZATION, the process of a country breaking up into smaller, often hostile, independent units typically due to economic, religious, or geopolitical interests, to solve the political strife within the country, or are you just daft?

The strat isn't to give up and acquiesce to letting them have their own playground to perpetuate their oppression, just because it isn't happening in your backyard, at the cost of sacrificing hundreds of thousands of innocent people trapped within the regions. You can't "Deprogram the Trump Cult victims and rehabilitate them into the decent society" if you give the Trump cult their own independent region.

Maybe people will wake up to understand our system of "law and order" never was meant to serve people, only capital.

[–] Crankenstein@lemmy.world 39 points 3 weeks ago

Yea, it did the exact fuckin opposite. Like we knew it would.

What? Do you even know what Balkanization is?

What does the breaking up of a larger nation into multiple independent, hostile territories have to do with changing people's political ideologies?

[–] Crankenstein@lemmy.world 8 points 3 weeks ago (4 children)

Ah yes, the Balkanization strategy. Cause that worked out so well the last time.

We are gonna die anyway. At least with societal collapse there will be a chance that not everyone will die from climate collapse.

Better to understand it is inevitable and prepare for it instead of sticking your head in the sand about it.

Damn right I'm a commie.

Recycling was never supposed to work alone. It was literally the last ditch effort after Reduce and Reuse.

Also, we already figured out how to make it work, but it isn't profitable when it works, so obviously we have to use the less effective methods so that a small handful of big wigs can milk the process for personal gain.

Caramelized carrots are bomb. Add as a topping on a sweet potato casserole if you wanna level up your game.
