It’s so white I smell cheese whenever I open it. Someone showed me that like 1,500 people had blocked me there because all I do on bluesky is call liberals nazis for supporting genocide.

If not voting for Harris means I’m voting for Trump, then not voting for Trump means I’m voting for Harris, so libs can shut the fuck up, because I’m not voting for either.

Articles like these ultimately make things worse since they never mention where disinformation comes from (corporate media), nor do they explain that people have no trust in the government because it seemingly exists only to send money to Ukraine and Israel. It’s not really surprising that they happily address the nazi conspiracy theories that meteorologists control the weather or that the federal government instantly puts all immigrants in mansions where they are waited upon 24/7 by countless beautiful harem sex slaves, but these articles never mention the endless money dumped on imperialism while peanuts are left to deal with worsening “natural” capitalism-caused disasters.
Still a pretty interesting and bizarre story though. QAnon never went anywhere, it just stopped calling itself QAnon.

We desperately need a union where I work. Whenever I brought it up I was shot down. All of my coworkers are white (including me). The ones I work with the most are all men, most of whom are at least 45 years old, many of whom are close to destitute despite working in the trades.

I was always left-of-liberal but someone on r/politics mentioned r/chapotraphouse and here I am. I was like…you can hate liberals from the left? This is amazing!
I lost my faith in electoralism after watching democrats in the same room steal Bernie’s delegates right in front of me. I also ran in elections and even won some…and then thought my life was in danger (and that I needed at least a few bodyguards 24/7 for myself and my family because the sheriff screamed right in my face once when I voted to defund his ass). I quit after that and realized that nothing would change this shithole except a violent revolution.

Aside from the reference to covid and the bay of chuds, this could have been published twenty years ago. It’s good to see that liberals are learning and not stuck in a time vortex.

I agree with your second paragraph. I visited years ago for a day or two and the city basically seemed empty to me, which I found weird. Just not a lot of people were around. It’s very different from a place like NYC, which is completely packed.

The r word, idiot, stupid, and lame are all ableist insults we should remove from our speech.
Words like thug and loot are also colonialist and should also be removed.

Discovered this guy’s music a couple of weeks ago and have been listening nonstop ever since. This song is called “Bosat el Reeh” on streaming services. He wrote three hundred songs, sings beautifully, and is also a beast on the oud.

People can be hot without being communists, but people cannot be a 10/10 without being communist. I assume most if not all of you (except the loser cops) are super hot. Have you ever looked at yourself in the mirror and said “I would do me”? Have you ever jerked off to completion while checking yourself out at different angles in the mirror? These are important considerations, especially when it comes to the optimism of the will.
Biobot seems to have stopped publishing data and the CDC (really just the CD) is completely useless. Despite masking whenever I’m indoors in public with either n94s or n95s, I’m mildly sick, my kid is mildly sick, we had to cancel a small outdoor party because a guest’s parents are sick, and I heard of a local business recently temporarily shutting down because everyone there was sick. My kids are supposed to mask at school but I’m having trouble getting them to follow through with it since almost no one else is masking, so I probably got sick via one of my kids.

The world has "fallen" to communism. The last liberals and fascists on Earth flee to Puerto Rico (sorry) and basically turn it into another Taiwan for a few months or years. The ruling class there maintains that it has suffered only temporary setbacks at worst and that victory is at hand. And besides, if you like communism so much, why don't you move to [the rest of the world]? And they aren't even real communists there anyway because they have not instantaneously transformed the planet into paradise. They're just befogging the masses, who are too stupid to understand that the best days of capitalism, imperialism, colonialism, and patriarchy lie ahead! I'm just thinking about this because of the Yankee cope I'm seeing all over the place. Ukraine just needs more weapons and European soldiers, then it's bound to prevail against Russia, which is collapsing anyway. China is a heartbeat from balkanizing. Haiti is just run by a bunch of cannibal criminal gangs. Palestine can't possibly win. Etc.
If you know of any, please post them here!
So I felt like I was following the genocide in Gaza pretty closely but apparently these images are at least a few days if not more than a week old. I found them on tiktok as well as a telegram channel called Gaza Now in English. I honestly couldn’t believe what I was looking at, but once I found this poor kid’s name I saw that his death had already been covered by establishment media. You can find these images and articles by googling his name (Yazan al-Kafarnev) and honor him by doing whatever you can to stop the genocide. I’m a parent and have trouble writing this but we failed this kid, our protests failed to save him.
“You must be fun at parties.” Uh why would I want to party with Nazis? “So edgy.” If I cared what liberals thought, I wouldn’t be a communist. “You’re just a larper.” Larp it till you make it, am I right? Also, what have larpers ever done to you? “Nazism and communism are the same.” Yes, Nazism is when you want to destroy Nazism forever rather than fund it the way you do.
We know they like to stick flags on everything. We've maybe all seen the Kelly cartoon where some guy complains that their neighbors only put up their flags for the fourth of July. But do they really notice if you don't have a flag on your house or your car? Also, what's the deal with reactionaries randomly removing their flags? A guy I know whose father or grandfather was probably in the klan took his flag down a month or two ago and I have no idea why. "Hunter Biden has tarnished our glorious nation's reputation" or something is probably the reason. I have another neighbor whose shitty wooden flagpole has lacked a flag since Biden won the election. I've heard they put Blue Lives Matter stickers on their cars to get the police to leave them alone. But if you put a gun sticker on your car, will the police actually leave you alone, or think twice about pulling you over, or just blow you away because you were driving 5 MPH over the speed limit? Bonus: I have a neighbor who has been flying a full-sized Ukrainian flag upside-down since February 2022. I also once saw someone with a tiny house like sort of tucked behind everyone else's, but he managed to put a flagpole in his yard and get like, an American flag, an Israeli flag, and a Blue Lives Matter flag all on that pole. Very impressive 
Is it because Palestine is the underdog while Ukraine **seems** to be the underdog…? What is the deal with this? I’m just talking about the corporate media here. Obviously you will lose your job if you advocate for peace in Ukraine or Palestine from a left perspective. In the media landscape, you can criticize the Ukraine War all you like from the right, but only some dissent regarding Palestine is permitted from the left. What is going on here? There are also very few protests in favor of peace in Ukraine from the left, but massive leftwing protests in favor of a ceasefire in Palestine.
Yesterday I made the mistake of watching random comedians on youtube. One guy I saw had an audience of thousands of people in Australia, and he told **nothing** except painfully racist anti-China jokes. (Yes, it might have been the algorithm being like: "You like China? Well, howabout a comedian advocating genocide on China?") Everyone on hexbear knows that this is typical for comedians because the audiences at comedy shows tend to be drunk bourgeois scum, etc., etc. But it's not just comedy. How many movies have you seen or books have you read where any of the characters, at any point, says something incredibly basic like: "capitalism bad, communism good." I'm not even sure Soviet or Chinese movies go that far (with the notable exception of Eisenstein's films...which were made before 1945). Plenty of works of art might imply that there is something corrupt about the military, police, or the powers-that-be, but they will never say that the system is the problem and that a better system exists. One very rare exception I can think of is The Battle of Algiers. Also think about the dogshit novels Americans have to read in school: Animal Farm or To Kill A Mockingbird. The moral of both stories is basically: "Opposing the system is futile. Accept the system." Nabokov is hailed as the greatest novelist of the latter half of the 20th century, but he's basically a highbrow version of Ayn Rand, and repeatedly condemns communism by name in his books. We also know that the CIA had (and has) its fingers in every pie, and that the PMC also knows that it's not allowed to "get political," i.e., provide context. Even when it comes to classical Russian literature, Dostoevsky is probably the most popular in the USA, and the guy is a reactionary Christian monarchist who recycles the openings to his novels and is apparently nowhere near as popular in Russia. I've just also been thinking about the greatest works of Statesian literature, how they are few and far between, how they were all written before 1945, and how they rarely were recognized for their greatness until long after their authors were dead. Steinbeck is one exception. The Grapes of Wrath is great (it was also written before 1945), but doesn't advocate for a better system. Poe and Melville are as good as the best writers from any other country, and Melville specifically inveighs against colonialism in his earlier novels, but both of these dudes were dead before they were recognized as titans. (Melville enjoyed some early success but then faded into obscurity long before he finished Moby Dick.) Are any post-1945 Statesian writers as good as Poe or Melville? Maybe just Octavia Butler, who was dead before she was a household name AFAIK. She advocates for communism in Parable of the Sower, but has to hide it behind mystical language ("God is change"). Sorry To Bother You is one possible cinematic exception, but it never goes beyond saying that the system sucks. I'm wrapping up a trilogy of novels at the moment, and they are blatantly pro-communist, and I'm just preparing myself for the fact that they are almost certainly not going to be a success, not just because of the numbers involved (millions of books published every year), but because of the passionate anti-communism in western countries. These books don't have people saying "capitalism bad, communism good." But they do have workers and peasants forming Soviets (even though they aren't called Soviets), and I know from experience that even if as a writer you never turn to the camera and say "capitalism bad, communism good," readers will still pick up on the fact that something is wrong, from a capitalist perspective—that workers aren't capable of doing anything on our own, we need guidance from our enlightened masters, "human nature" is futile to oppose. I think there's just a dialectical materialist style of writing that liberals and fascists pick up on without necessarily knowing that they're picking up on it (because they spend their entire lives asleep). Also I thought about this because I just saw and liked Trumbo, even though I was like: the blacklist never ended lol, where is my biopic about Paul Robeson, a Black colossus who never backed down from praising Stalin? Even if your job is dog shit picker upper (which I have done), you’ll lose that job if you praise Stalin. And yes, this is a Arby's.

“In September [of 2023], Guyana’s government said it would award concessions for the exploration of new oil blocks by the end of the year, infuriating Maduro, whose government has said some of those blocks are in waters that have not been delimited or belong to Venezuela.” https://www.houstonchronicle.com/business/energy/article/exxon-venezuela-guyana-threats-18538010.php CIApedia: In September 2020, in a joint statement with the United States secretary of state Mike Pompeo (), [Guyanese president] Ali said the two countries would begin joint maritime patrols aimed at drug interdiction near Guyana's disputed border with crisis-stricken Venezuela.[26] The agreement came as U.S. oil major Exxon Mobil Corp, as part of a consortium with Hess Corp, ramped up crude output from Guyana's massive offshore Stabroek block, a large portion of which is in waters claimed by Venezuela.[26] Pompeo and Ali added that "greater security, greater capacity to understand your border space, what's happening inside your Exclusive Economic Zone - those are all things that give Guyana sovereignty."[27] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irfaan_Ali#Foreign_policy “Wait, you mean every country the US corporate media dislikes isn’t necessarily bad, it’s just displeasing the US ruling class?”  In four days we could be seeing an anti-imperialist action every eight hours until they are coming every four minutes.
Power users and mods just keep repeating: "History is not a science because culture (i.e., god) is all-powerful. We might use evidence but we distrust grand theories."
I have not actually watched this film (because it’s probably not good). And yes I’m aware that Dracula is actually an anti-semitic caricature of the feudal aristocracy. Doctor Frankenstein is the actual bourgeois, while the monster is his proletarian creation. Neither can actually exist without the other. The monster is the real hero of the story and the proletariat is the hero of history.
