  • I don’t think you understand, because you came out of left field to restate my point as “the only way to bring about systemic change is through Marxism.”

    Wtf? Where did I say anything related to Marxism, let alone use the word?

    I will reply to your quote:

    There are other things like support for social justice and human rights, anti-imperialism and internationalism, desire for systemic change, secularism, opposition to traditional hierarchies, etc. Are you then going to tell me that these characteristics i have outlined are right wing? Or that they are only achievable by being Marxist or Anarchist?

    No! Those things are only achievable through anticapitalism! Marxism and anarchism are examples of anticapitalist thought.

    “Opposition to traditional hierarchies,” “desire for systemic change,” “anti-imperialism,” and “social justice” are hollow, offensive, and nonsensical when ignoring capitalism.

    I’m not a Marxist, and you can call yourself whatever you like, but if you haven’t attained class consciousness enough to recognize that capitalism is a death cult, you’re a fucking liberal.
















  • Would you say what you’re seeking is “more intimacy,” up to, potentially, the most possible intimacy?

    I would suggest looking at his different interests and getting curious. If you’re interested in the guy, it should be pretty easy to find reasons why this film or that game are endearingly-this-or-that in a way that makes you like and respect him even more.

    Then, you bond over it; by trusting his taste (intimacy) enough to check out that show or whatever interest, you now have an opportunity to get deep (intimacy) into what you each individually felt (intimacy) about it, and maybe you felt something in common. That’s some foundation for intimacy.


  • carrying, in itself, makes others more unsafe, which is my point here.

    I appreciate your point being made clear. Now, please apply the concept of “carrying (a gun) makes others more unsafe” to cars and knives, examples of obviously inherently dangerous tools.

    The real issue for me is capitalism. Are you a liberal? Because your “point” is liberal propaganda. Guns are not correlated to violence, inequality is.
