"…I kept thinking of all the things I could do if I quit serving my fellow man … A man's folks come first"
The genius of the organized system or capitalism or modernity or ZOG or however you define it is that one day a man wakes up and decides that rather than giving his all for a fellow worker who will gyp him, a victim who resents him, a cause that doesn't need him, and ideas not worth considering, there's a worthwhile struggle and it takes its own kind of courage to just live a silly, parochial life for you and your own

But I'm at least a year or two older than you. One day you're a sadbrains loser crying over Naxalite feminist intersectionality issues and the next you're a Little Heydrich like your poster

No, that's merely my confidant Dork Rex's milquetoast approach to late young adult reactionarism. You must sublimate and become a real flunky because you don't have a choice. It sounds and is quite emasculating but it also gives a false but still satisfying sense of agency.

ah yes women live to bounce around on couches and make words with cut out letters and wear short dresses and smile for your pleasure
why belittle this woman for her creativity? strikes me as a somewhat sour approach
The left attracts highly motivated narcissists with no power on account of the promise of power to those who currently have none, and the sooner they figure out that they're not gonna get their selfish fulfillment here the sooner they can get the fuck out and the rest of us won't have to deal with their bullshit anymore.

It is ok to want these things to get better, don't get me wrong, and it is a good idea to look elsewhere for a better place to struggle if you are being treated like shit, but if you are going to bail out and abandon your values because you can be more comfortable as a liberal then you never had any values to begin with.

Sounds like a good idea worth building upon, maybe the Rhizzone could make a Kickstarter for a twee children's book so parents can get their kids interested in Marxism.
TBF though her attitude seems like the attitude that scandinavia portrays at least in the media i've seen
