    “Take a second to reflect on what a shit-tier experience-”

    Yeah, we’re shit to hostile actors and people who purposefully ignore and downplay what we say; going as so far to plug their ears even after we explained in as many different ranges as reactions as we can. I’ll admit, it’s msotly been negative; but you’ve had quite a few constructive replies to you.

    You’re just an example of why we act so hostile. It’s because most of the time; they’re here to stir shit about things they don’t have any education on; even if you aren’t. Don’t believe me? Feel free to take a look around on some Ukraine threads and see for yourself. Nothing like excusing Nazis, right?

    You have the ability to read theory, study and learn on why we act why we do.

    “If this group of people are the ones convincing everyday Americans to band together…”

    If you’d take two looks at most Americans; you’d see why most of us desire a cultural purge.

    If you’d think about for two minutes why we are so hostile, maybe you’d get it. But no, you’re doubling down. Perhaps, that could be a tiny, tiny part of it. Really.

    “Does my awareness that better systems exist somehow make them appear here? Does it somehow wrestle control from those with power who made this system to perpetuate this power and will defend it with violence?”

    “Three keys to success: read, read, read.” - Lenin

    “Whoever wants to know a thing has no way of doing so except by coming into contact with it, that is, by living (practicing) in its environment. … If you want knowledge, you must take part in the practice of changing reality. If you want to know the taste of a pear, you must change the pear by eating it yourself…” ~ Mao, On Practice

    Yes, it does, actually. The whole point we are making is that organizing and actually working to make an actual effort at educating more and moving people leftwards than electoralism is the result of seeing that electoralism itself is unsuccessful in applying meaningful change for the WILL of the working class, or the mandate, if you will; the ability to actually change the material conditions of our governance to serve the working class only.

    That will/mandate is instead held by the ruling class, whom decides either or not to concede changes or to apply austerity and to never give up power. That will/mandate is held by the means of production; to which you have been largely removed from if you are a younger as they have been mostly offshored to other countries for profit extraction but still live, enjoy (greatly more benefits at the cost of the third world) and suffer under the relations of that production…which you’d know exactly why if you read Marx AND Lenin.

    Every country has it’s own path to socialism.

    “Champions of reforms and improvements will always be fooled by the defenders of the old order until they realise that every old institution, how ever barbarous and rotten it may appear to be, is kept going by the forces of certain ruling classes. And there is only one way of smashing the resistance of those classes, and that is to find, in the very society which surrounds us, the forces which can—and, owing to their social position, must—constitute the power capable of sweeping away the old and creating the new” ~ Lenin, Three Sources, Three Components of Socialism


  • Oh hey, you just did it.

    “I’m sure it feels great to be up on that high-horse and think you’re looking down at the unwashed masses just because you won’t work with the flawed system that will have the supreme court nuke any milquetoast, limp-dick incremental change” That smugness? That right there? I’d rather not vote just to spite some of you ghouls. If you agree with us, cool; but there are plenty of campaigning “VOOTERS” here that love trying to shove that garbage down our throat while justifying the heinous

    Non-voting doesn’t do anything on it’s own. Organizing does. But in order to organize you need to understand WHY you need to organize, which is why we offer theory and Marx does offer some insight into, if you have read his work.

    We give a shit if people vote because slogging into electoralism instead of engaging with socialist or at the very least, alternative political parties it just does the same thing as non-voting except it gives a general sense of false security to the collective yt conscious that everything is just a-okay. Because they offer tiny, shitty changes for the world’s most destructive, blood-thirsty regime knowing that they are simply a stop-gap or a buffer to prevent a left-ward shift before the Supreme Court nukes it and are effective in neutralizing grassroots left movements.

    Of course, as always, when this is brought up and how the Supreme Court as a whole is an absolutely dog-shit undemocratic system meant to enforce every mechanism of white supremacy in this nation; they just plug their ears.

    When the cards fall and the very thing that they’re scared about (the sudden mechanisms of the ruling class thrashing out in violence) that it’s going to target THEM as LIBERALS and not the literal litany of history available that they always, always, always go after minorities, LGBTQ and socialists/communists first.

    But ohhh noes! Project 2045! That’s why we gotta send another 15 billion to Ukraine, call everyone Russian agents and double down on the same milquetoast candidates that don’t fight against a god damn fucking thing. Incremental changes here, guys! Time for brunch!!

    The fucking brainworms dig in and start systematically chowing down on all political memory within the past 10 years. “NUH-UH! OBAMA WAS HECKIN AWESOME!! DOWNDOOT!!” because they don’t fucking give a shit.







  • It’s not that simple, but the crux of it is that it’s a type of gambling. You get given a huge community catering to different interests with relative anonymity at a young age. The institutions and programs of this community constantly demand their own scrip and offers that scrip via paid membership per month as well as benefits in the community. You play games that can offer more of that scrip; while sinking your scrip deeper into those games that give diminishing returns. (Sometimes you get lucky or others are generous) It’s no different than any brutally predatory pay2win game except it has a sort of Second Life twist to it in the case of Roblox.

    Friendships are harder and harder for the young. Those disenfranchised seek easy companionships in these online communities. A perfect ground for predators of all sorts; including the Roblox team itself at certain points.
