Nederlanders blijven belachelijk.

I learned Dutch in a post-modern ironic way though, not a utilitarian euro-boo cringe way. Please spare me, I do not claim those folks.

As a Dutch speaker, I'm always shocked by how many people on this forum speak Dutch, it's like not that popular of a language... but I agree profoundly unserious please.

TW: Mental HealthAs someone who has had severe depression since childhood I'd say this is pretty normal, but it's caused me to reflect a lot. I feel in my case, the meds never actually worked, and were pretty much a placebo. I think depression is impossible to effect with meds because I feel it ultimately is due to material conditions and not necessarily something being "wrong" with you. I'd keep in mind we aren't mad to sit in a class room, office, couch for 12+ hrs a day isolated from community. There are no depression studies that take these things into account, they just say "oh so you're sad that millions are suffering and that your life is slavery outside of the 2 weeks a year we allow you to rest? That must be a you problem, here's some pills that mess up ur serotonin" then once you're on the cycle of pills the withdrawals are too brutal so it reinforces the hypothesis for these trials. I don't really have a solution op, just know that there isn't anything wrong with you, many people are going through this as well.

Het is just "the" in Dutch

I mean I get the whole "policy over slogans" argument, but like go talk to American Indians, they literally just want their fucking land back. It's one of the few times where the policy asks aren't actually that complicated.

Genuine question, I spent time with CPUSA and DSA, and still will go to events if they align with my values, but have largely found that the membership are primarily liberals who are very socially progressive, but ultimately only really care about domestic policy. Is the PSL considered more serious? I felt burned by the other two, but want to still be involved in local efforts where I can.

lol libs will do anything besides reading theory... they're like ideologically opposed to reading anything that isn't self help garbage.

Ahh, so ml likes HB? I'm not super plugged into drama usually, but the libs make my blood boil. I had to uninstall Reddit, at this point it's literally all just us propaganda.
