Thank you for your detailed response, I appreciate the time and knowledge! Is there any particular text you can recommend, especially around the native and black movements? I think it would help to view things from a wholly different perspective.

I do agree though about it being an "event" or a consequence rather than an explicit goal. Having partly lived through the balkanization of Jugoslavia, it's a topic that's a personal interest. If anyone's got good recs on that I would also be very interested!

Does it necessarily need to be a completely chaotic process? Could there be a pathway for new forms of government or organisation that's better for people?

I was thinking about how the idea of some form of secession of states is always discussed in some really silly right-wing fantasy contexts but has there been any discourse in leftist circles about this? Especially in terms of the completely broken political system.

Otherwise is this a completely stupid idea on its face? Either way I'm just interested to hear about people's thoughts.

Oh yeah no doubt, I just personally prefer the online shopping experience and getting exactly what I want.

Ain't nobody checking domestic post, especially in personal use quantities. Especially in the case of something like acid tabs which are just tiny pieces of paper. The other option is making friends with people who take drugs

It's incredibly easy via dark net, comes right to your door! Doesn't take very long to learn either. The only thing crypto is good for

You idiot, they clearly have superior western technology. It's a tiny little car which you would think would struggle to hold even a child, but then to everyone's surprise grown men keep coming out and coming out. You do sacrifice a bit on camouflage due to the colourful makeup and wigs and troop mobility is limited by the very very long shoes.

Smoke meth instead

I mean they're the ultimate normie phones because they're so fixed and easy to pick up. So I think you either go all in on the ecosystem or you get a different phone. Apple can suck my ass no doubt but none of this is a secret lol.

Some Fromsoft fans sound like fucking cult members I swear to god. Like somehow adjusting the difficulty of the game takes away from the purity of the experience or some shit or take away from the satisfaction of progression. Ohh no it'll break the delicate balance oh god.

Buddy, I just wanna vibe with the atmosphere and the scenery sometimes instead of studying the blade or whatever the fuck. It's a video game, relax.

He'll tell him it's a new, even more racist Crime Bill.

Feelings of wanting to dissappear and do nothing for a couple of days gave me a very good idea that would be a hit. Any enterprising individual should jump at this idea and make enough money to fund a revolutionary militia.

So you've seen all these fancy rehabs where it's peaceful and in a pretty location. You can get looked after as you "recover" from your addiction and then promptly relapse after succeeding in lowering your tolerance enough. Rich waspy types love this stuff and will dish out lots of money to get it.

The idea that I'm proposing is exactly this experience but they give you drugs instead of taking them away. Wouldn't it be lovely to dissappear for a couple of days while you get looked after and get given pharma grade heroin (or drug of your choosing). Then you can go back to your normal life and just tell people you were in rehab. Now you seem cool and mysterious to the people in your life because they think you're a tortured soul like Kurt Cobaine AND you had the best holiday of your life.

Feedback would be appreciated.

Just wondering what everyone thinks about this. In almost every place I've worked coworkers with right wing beliefs are never shy about giving their opinion and views on things.

The major talking points are usually variations of stuff like: we spend to much on beneficiaries and they should stop being lazy and get a job. That poor people have kids so they can get free money from the government. We need or be tougher on crime. Even absurd shit like being outraged that a homeless person had a smartphone and indulging in such lavishness is why they're homeless etc etc

Some of the shit I hear from otherwise seemingly lovely people is insane. I feel like I have to be so much more measured and have all my 'evidence' ready to defend my commie beliefs while these people can just say whatever bullshit they want and everybody just kinda nods in agreement.

Is this a normal thing in the Angloverse? Is it because their views are essentially the status quo already and they have just fully internalised the capitalist propeganda?

Please let me know
