  • This is it.

    People keep insisting that the populace would win a war of populace against state… maybe it would, I don’t know and it’s not the problem.

    The problem is a war of half the populace against the state and the other half of the populace. Fascism is carried into power by popular demand, it’s not like one day they just appear on the levers of power and have to put up with a revolting population. They will have been put there by the population, and it will be the better armed half of the population.



  • That kind of violence is really the exception to the rule. Mainly because the movement is anything but centralised, anyone and everyone can be part of it and declare themselves antifascist. And of course the corpo media is more interested in and reports on the things that make us look bad and get them clicks.

    I did write an entire essay here, but then it occurred to me that this is rather not the place and it felt… self-congratulatory, so I’ll just say:

    Most of the work antifascist actions do is small and quiet but imho more important than the black block.



  • I go completely cosplay in those worlds, hell yeah, xenophobia is part of the lore and it’s fun to flip your usual behavior to let off some steam in a safe and gratifying way. I’ll play the “Xeno-Scum!” screaming commissar as well as the medieval knight who thinks black people are naturally inferior. But every fucking time, there’s some asshole in the fandom whose damaged brain thinks this somehow translates into acceptable behavior IRL.

    No dude! How do the huge black, red and straight out Antifa-Flag hanging in the playroom, the dozens of stickers everywhere showing a fist destroying a swastika and the fotos from demonstrations showing us with the local democratic-socialist youth not give it away? Our clubhouse is not a safe place for fascists to be in!



  • Because I hear these people make the masks don’t work argument

    The thing is that they hear doctors say “Masks don’t reliably protect against disease” and go “masks don’t work”, but what the doctors say is “they aren’t 100% reliable, so don’t use it as the only method of protection”.

    But if wearing a mask vs not wearing a mask lowers your risk of infection by 50%, that’s a huge deal! And with the way infections spread, that’s millions of prevented points of infection.

    Nyeah… partly.

    If that were entirely true, a “power bottom” would make no sense.

    The terms sexual usage originated in gay circles where it only delineates who penetrates and who gets penetrated. Traditional views on sex ascribe a submissive or passive role to the bottom and an active or dominating role to the top, but you can totally have a power bottom who takes control and an active role in the intercourse but is the one getting penetrated.

    Russia, over Ukraine, hand on their throat, continually punching a country that desperately tries to defend itself, red faced with rage shouting at the people standing around the fight and trying to help Ukraine from the sidelines:

    “YOU DAMN WARMONGERS!” punch “ALL YOU WANT IS TO THREATEN ME!!” punch, punch crack “WHY CAN’T YOU JUST LEAVE ME ALONE?!!1!” punch

    Super Rezept, für diejenigen wie mich, die normales Suppengemüse oder Soffritto nicht essen können weil sie Möhren zwar lieben aber absolut nicht vertragen: Petersilienwurzel geht manchmal und ansonsten empfehle ich die Holy Trinity der Cajun-Küche: Gemüsepaprika, Zwiebeln und Staudensellerie. Wenn ihr das vorher schön anröstet gibt das auch eine super Grundlage
