nostr:npub1wj857ayedqhxsjajfgu7tps332def983x8k663df6j7dzv4jtgwsy6s5yh I should have but i didnt trust the source know what "spam" meant. Techno literacy concerns

nostr:npub12tfp9n5le64yy0d2ndyu7yxzw6ecdnqy7d8zn04s4efmhzsl2k2s036yv9 yup. Against needle exchange programs, against homing the homeless, both cost savers. Cuz cruelty.

Conservatism aka "Who shall we abuse and oppress today?"

nostr:npub1d7jhhvfqxd3j0x38yc9m4eam7qf588dlkgh0gmshd3p09wwpztks4lu8xc Capitalism convinces us to seek imbalanced advantage in self-interest. Its neither inevitable nor inherently the default position.

nostr:npub1gmx4vz0z4waf3ff40j7vdy7stdn4c0gne6lkd0pwtae46lzph4mqajatcq Nah, but I'm not surprised about that one. I’d heard something about them being garbage even before all this.

It was Smile Empty Soul. For all I know, they were a mess even before that which was why I'd legitimately thought they quit making music. But wow, damn. (And WTF was my cousin doing stanning them even knowing that garbage track was out? Hm.)

nostr:npub15nckwda495ft8e8n0l48lq8jwk5d0l4d64jf4unzpk8esgdvgc8swu8xmk I know them. TBH on brand to be against masks given Smile is in their name :/

nostr:npub1gmx4vz0z4waf3ff40j7vdy7stdn4c0gne6lkd0pwtae46lzph4mqajatcq Reminds me of a thing that happened not too long ago. My cousin did professional shots of a band I listened to *years* ago and (oops) didn't realize was still making music. I got hella excited, played their new stuff on my Music subscription…and found out they had a whole-ass song about needing to get out of "oppressive" California because of all the (oh, noes!) forced masking.

Deleted that music and the playback history so fast.

When I tell you that your favorite VCs sit around in chat rooms with nazis, you think I'm joking. 🤷🏿‍♂️

Woke means Black. It's a Black saying.

Passing a law called "Stop woke" or saying "I'm anti-woke!" is equivalent to passing a law called "anti-Shabat Shalom" or "anti-Ni-Hao," but then trying to claim that you are not anti-semitic or sinophobic. It makes no sense.

Most of these VCs, writers, and politicians are irredeemably racist, and hate you on a visceral level.

nostr:npub14ukaj9jxt92unn28r7z42n475c7u6typ2cu8wyur4eqrk67tyz9sxs2erc I guess i should be grateful for the early irc days when their white supremacy was everywhere and uncloaked behind euphemisms. Their exterminationist fundamental politik was eye opening.

Favorite part of finding new awesome music is looking for anti-mask and fascistic /misogynistic / "anti-woke" positions they hold.

aka the fucking Nazi litmus test.

In 2023.

Not 1939.

Working out is less fun when the dual threats of climate change & fascism bear down on you with their full weight.

So does an inequitable status quo, for that matter.
