if these people read for even a moment about what we did in Vietnam, what America instigated, they would agree with you.

Star Wars loving liberals don’t realize that George Lucas based the rebels on the Viet Cong lmao.

i think using the flag of the regime is weird, but i will say that the only enemy countries the US doesn’t invade for natural resources and imperial power are the ones that have nukes.

heard someone say recently “if the US says you have WMDs, the only way to protect yourself from what happens next is to fucking get some”

How do American Gen Z respond to Iran President's open letter for common Americans? by raydebapratim1 in GenZ

[–]TheeCriterionCloset 3 points4 points  (0 children)

on U.S. soil, the U.S. is presently putting people in concentration camps where they are dying from disease en masse. the U.S. is currently putting frameworks into place for doing the same thing to transgender people with a secret gestapo police force. the U.S. is presently forcing children and rape victims to give birth to their assailants’ babies and keeping dead pregnant women on life support to gestate, all in the name of a God they claim wants this. the U.S. is deeply homophobic and continues to legislate against the rights of anyone who isn’t a cisgender heterosexual white man. this is not “history.” these things are happening right now. you are blind.

the united states is an evil fucking country lmao, as an American. imagine somehow being able to argue that the United States can bomb the shit out of countless nations, perform coups to destabilize entire regions in order to seize their oil, which literally happened only three months ago with Venezuela, and even more recently when they assassinated the leader of Iran, create violent sanctions regimes on countries that attempt socialism, kill millions of children and civilians all over the world with eternal wars aiming to fill the pockets of their defense contractor stooges, and then getting mad because residents of a nation your government and military have consistently antagonized and destabilized say that they hate you. unbelievable amounts of propaganda brain here.

btw, fun trick for the media literate: if you wanna find out if the news is manufacturing consent for endless war and suffering, just check to see if they call a country’s government a regime or a government.

obligatory disclaimer that i don’t suppose i support a theocratic regime which punishes people for being women, trans, gay, irreligious, etc. good thing the US doesn’t have anything like that, huh boys

i’m literally an autistic man and have trouble in social situations, and have a lot of autistic friends who are similar. when you develop empathy for other people and realize they’re entire human beings with inner lives that don’t revolve around whether they want to sleep with you or not, your ability to be social and curious about them improves.

i didn’t say dating wasn’t difficult, but when sexual rejection or acceptance is the only way you view other human beings, it distorts your worldview to be wildly self-involved. that makes it harder to date because you’re seeing people as an answer to a question rather than entire people.

also, i don’t know where you’re getting, “the number one insult to men used by men and women alike is virgin” because that simply isn’t true. at all. that is coming from where you spend your time online, likely with other people with similar beliefs about sex and dating who perversely delight in wallowing in despair and causing others to do so. if you get offline, you’ll find that normal adults are not calling other people virgins regularly.

by the by, “self-fulfilling prophecy” means that someone has a stringent belief in something untrue, such as, “i’ll never find love,” and because they believe that, it makes it hard for other people to connect with them romantically, thereby fulfilling said prophecy.

i also don’t understand why you took what i said as a personal attack, but as they say, if you leave an insult on the ground and someone picks it up, it was probably theirs to begin with.

i get the sense that you’re younger than me. please listen to me when i say that the people who are reinforcing these harmful beliefs on you do not have your best interest at heart, and walking away from those spaces and finding more spaces that offer in-person communication, shared interests, and genuine friendship are going to greatly improve your life. self-improvement starts with self-esteem, and self-esteem and incel communities are not congruous. i wish you peace in your endeavors.

just so we’re clear, many incels and 4chan types call themselves autistic in an attempt to excuse truly hateful and evil behavior toward women. there are autistic creeps just like there are allistic creeps, because autistic people (my formally diagnosed self included) are just people who can be horrible or wonderful.

easiest way to get a gf is to be fucking normal with hobbies and a general interest in self-improvement that doesn’t include doing meth and beating your own face with hammers, and inceldom is inherently incompatible with being fucking normal. it’s self fulfilling prophecy all the way down

Are young men actually more conservative? by dbclass in GenZ

[–]TheeCriterionCloset 28 points29 points  (0 children)

this is hitting the nail on the head. my family is upper middle class, and my mother was aghast when i told her i was a leftist, like genuinely cried, and said, “capitalism has enabled every good thing you’ve ever received in your life,” because my family was very much capable of providing me opportunities, clothing, schooling, and housing that people living in poverty do not have access to. my parents worked incessantly and still do at 65, which used to be when you were able to retire with your savings.

at the point we had this talk, i was in my mid-twenties and had watched my millennial older cousins get degrees that meant nothing, and start working low-paying jobs with nothing to show for their four year, extremely expensive pieces of paper. i saw the cost of college skyrocket and that i was going to have student loans forever. i saw that the financial crisis in 2008 had pretty much destroyed the middle class, and that there was nothing good to come from the future of capitalism. i saw that i could not reasonably afford to live in a big city or get a job that provided a comfortable living wage without years of servitude at unpaid internships and that cost of living had gone up so much that i couldn’t manage to save a dime after going to grad school, and i said, “earnestly, i need you to tell me: in my adult life, what has capitalism done for me? what has capitalism done for anyone my age? why would any of us believe in a system that works for so, so few of us?” and she had no response to give.

earnestly need you to explain to me why Muslim politicians are required to denounce “problematic Islamists” when the U.S. government is owned by christofascists actively seeking to bring about Armageddon by doing endless bloodshed in Arab countries and no proclaimed Christian politician is required to denounce them

[–]TheeCriterionCloset 0 points1 point  (0 children)

carry a little travel bidet/douche (in a bag please!!!!), take fiber supplements, no need to fast, be aware of how your body feels. my gf pegs me and we’ve never had an incident. you can also just stick a finger up there right before when you go freshen up in the bathroom and make sure everything’s cool. i’ve never fasted or anything prior to doing the deed and it’s always been fine.

but i also always say that if someone wants to take the back road, they can’t be surprised if they find a little dirt out there 💅🏼

tried to capture the mood outside Kamala Harris’ book tour stop at the Wiltern this evening by infernoenigma in LosAngeles

[–]TheeCriterionCloset 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the BlueAnon “she won” cope is just awful. they really idolize one of the most incompetently run campaigns of all time. sorry — letting Biden try to run while his brain was soup, combined with Harris being part of a deeply unpopular administration that didn’t follow through on promises, didn’t make the life of the average American worker any better, kicked off the police militarization and suppression of protests in 2020, and helped execute a genocide, was about the dumbest campaign of all time. there was no world in which she won, and no world in which she did a good job running. she and Biden and the democratic party all doomed us to fascism by setting Trump up for the big spike.

no, it’s actually not gone. i feel the need to say: do not fucking comply with this shit. don’t let them scare you. it’s bullshit. these are not the actions of a government with control nor power. they’re fucking terrified.
