The best thing that could happen to video games is for the industry to collapse so that independent mods of already existing games could be expanded more. Every good video game has already been made. With AI decompilation of older games, you could just have infinite modularity on the already good games instead.

I am a Muslim Communist. America is my homeland. I fight for the messiah Jesus Christ shoulder to shoulder with his Christian followers. Christ and Lenin share the same message: War on the usurer’s, tyrants, and oppressors of humanity. Ali and Stalin waged the war with the same sword. The US regime, the Whore of Babylon and Empire of the Antichrist, is the enemy of the people of this land and of all lands. Zionism is the enemy of mankind. I forgive brainwashed Americans who hate me, because one day I believe they will realize how much Zionists tricked them into surrendering their liberty to the servants of Satan.

THEY ARE NOT ON JIHAD. THEY ARE NOT AWAKE. THEY DO NOT UNDERSTAND THAT YOU ARE TELLING THE TRUTH. YOU MAY NOT EVEN HAVE UNDERSTOOD THAT YOU ARE TELLING THE TRUTH. BUT YOU ARE. I HAVE HAD A SERIES OF MIRACLES CONFIRMING THAT YELLOWSTONE VOLCANO WILL ERUPT.

What distinguishes “woke” (9/11 was an inside job) from “woke” (“the idea of hegel is whiteness” etc)? The former is an attempt at the consciousness of the state, or collective reality, while the latter is just more individualistic solipsistic mystical retardation.

Now how do you get to “a marxist leninist state in america”? Well? Any ideas? 100 years? You have to imagine that the “Mr Beast” generation isn’t going to do it. The generation whose discourse is “gooning” & “mogging”— who obsess with “satisfying themselves” etc

If you make enough money you can outsource your own kids & enable yourself to maintain an adolescent narcissism which ends up reproducing in the kids, as narcissism is generally a cope for engaging with narcissists. En masse this is the phenomenon of “individualism.”

I have heard so many librarians across so many libraries say "we don't have a physical copy any more but you can easily find it on Google Books". If you point out it isn't there, "it should be, it's why we felt comfortable removing it, we needed space". [Mind, not for books] 🫠

Why is Google Books removing access to out-of-copyright books that it once hosted as open access? There is a good chance that the mass-deaccession policy of libraries, on the ground that "it's available for free online", will be one of the most stupid acts of modern curatorship.

Patrilineality introduces “substitution” (Abraham & Isaac) which confers again ownership of the child to the father(deity) — the whole thing a wresting away of Mother(deity)’s absolute right to child sacrifice

Slavery is not just some “moral choice”— it is the consequence of undeveloped productive forces. Slavery is a human universal & the natural mode of economy prior to modernity.

The Leftioid mind cannot grasp that the alternative to slavery in pre-modernity is genocide. If you didn’t enslave prisoners of war, you just killed them all (you might even eat them). There is no society in which this wasn’t the case.

doubling down on this: it’s very easy to hate on finance and the people who work in it but do you have the courage (& intellect) to understand the role they play in the economy in a dispassionate manner i find the left struggles with this deeply, wanting to topple a system that they can barely grasp to replace it with someone that they cannot even conceive in order to beat your opposition, you actually have to understand them and be better than them i don’t see any prominent leftists today going to work at an investment bank like Michael Hudson did at Chase Manhattan under Herman Kahn hudson actually understands the role finance plays in the domestic and global economy, which is why his critiques actually have merit to them hudson actually remembers that Marxism isn’t a dogma but a science, something that the left forgets entirely
this is going to be an unpopular answer but no generally high finance folks are consensus and conservative (i don’t mean this in the political sense to be clear), but are generally very sharp in terms of intellect and thoughtfulness i would say the overwhelming majority are still very much pro-US (which is natural & to be expected) but will have the honesty to engage in debate about the strengths & weaknesses of the country TMTLongShort is stupid & should not be considered representive of “high finance,” IMO

The Hellenes are just pirates-- the beginning is an argument over who rolled need for a captured sex slave. The Trojans are just a civilization fighting off pirates. The Hellenes only *become* a civilization by the consequences of this conflict, where all these mercenary pirates have to form a civilization. That's why Homer was so central to Hellenic society-- it was the story of their coming into being. The lesson was to "not be like Achilles" but to be like Hector. When Hector "The Breaker of Horses" dies-- that allows the Trojan Horse to enter the city. Hector is the center of civilization. Achilles is a barbarian.

If I hear another Boomer conservative bitching about Gen Z ordering DoorDash I’m going to become a communist. It’s true their grandparents always cooked homemade meals. But that’s because grandma stayed at home and grandpa had a union job and nobody could reach him after 5. They had a house with a full kitchen and 3 kids by 25. Meanwhile half of Gen Z men are forced to compete with the entire population of South America for some 12 hour long shift HVAC job that barely pays the rent. They’re 30 and nobody cooks for them because they can’t find any women who’ll marry them when they can’t even afford a starter home in the ghetto. The other half of Gen Z men are busting their ass competing with the entire populations of India and China for some 70 hour a week powerpoint job that asks them for updates on the slides at 3AM. They can’t find anyone to cook for them either, because every women around them is convinced that being a mother and cooking for a man is beneath them because they’re gonna save the world when they become VP of Marketing at MegaCorp in 20 years.

I’d be in class like: “why do you think you’re better than Dante?” — I had to defend the books myself. Some retard who writes a thesis about cartoons for children gets to play act like they are a genius beyond the grasp of Dante.

Wokeness as I understood it as an undergrad was the reason why the professors were flippant about readings & nobody read the readings & nobody had any REVERENCE for the reading. Wokeness was just “how do I engage in politicking for a position to extract rents from” — how do I get an A with the least amount of effort

Wokeness is really just laziness— I don’t buy all the nonsense defenses, it is just a way to say “I don’t need to read those books”— wokeness is vanity & narcissism directed at everything that came into being before the individual. “All that greek philosophy is nothing to me.”

أنا أتحدث العربية. هل تتحدثها أنت؟. I spent 4 years in college learning Arabic and studying the rich history of Islamic art. I went to visit Israel and Palestine in 2012 to study the conflict. I personally interviewed hijab-wearing university students in Gaza and reported how they only had 4 hours of electricity on a daily basis. I started writing about the insolubility of the conflict and the plight of Palestinian people in Chinese about 10 years before you historically illiterate Americans suddenly discovered Palestine and turned it into your chicest moral accessory. You don’t know me. You trawled through my following list, you found the names of American Jews I know personally, and demanded that I explain myself. I recognize self-appointed Red Guards like you from my recent history, who combed through someone’s associations to identify members of the “Five Black Categories” and demand a public confession. Your politics is not solidarity. It is surveillance, guilt by association, and moral vanity.

For too long, our breakfast has been held hostage by profit. Hash brown casserole. Breakfast sausage. French toast bake. These belong to the American people—not to bloodsucking breakfast profiteers. Nationalize the Cracker Barrel!
