I’m not as surprised looking at their ‘‘credentials’’ on twitter, what they deemed important to ‘‘show off’’. That they graduated from Georgetown, an ivy league, that they enjoy raving (which likely entails psychedelics, leading to the ayahuasca bazinga brain, or new age hippie bullshit), and that they studied abroad in Japan (so they’re likely into anime and videogames, and gobble up everything Japan, cosplay or are geeky), and most telling of all, they grew up in LA, and we all know you need brain de-wormer growing up in the goddamn US. I forgot to mention that like me, they’re Millennial, and I’ve met a number of my generational kin that grew up with some privilege to study abroad, or mingle with people from other countries in ivy leagues and their bad takes. I think they studied with escuálidos in Georgetown and that misinforms their position. These are all assumptions, but tracking the brainrot is fun, just as it is for us tracking how we got here.

As for the author this is one of those ‘‘ninis’’ that are neither Washington nor Moscow, but always end up in Washington.

What American cultural hegemony does to a motherfucker. Right now, we have people in India, in South Africa, in Perú, in China talking about ‘‘woke’’. Where did that come from? The US. Why are people with cultures so different from the gringos all talking about the same shit? Because US cultural hegemony has spread through social media, or the internet to be more specific. It’s their crap that gets viewed the most, that gets liked the most, that gets commented about if you wanna be ‘‘hip’’, it’s what everybody else around the world copies, and that’s how you end up with a bazillion channels all talking about goddamned ‘‘woke’’. The US has single-handedly dumbed down the entire world.

Current political discourse format be like:

You got the critical support guy, the chud, the lib, formerly critical support guy demoted to lib, and then you got one on the precipice of understanding.

Real Hours.

Nah, comrade, you’re cool.

I basically asked them: Why would I vote for Harris? How would that improve the situation in the US and abroad? I’m not too familiar with her, but her politics don’t seem too appealing, especially her support for Palestine and her incarceration background.

I think they misread this as applying to the lib rather than to Kamala.

I think it stems from the civility nonsense. The idea of ‘‘bipartisanship’’, where 2 parties ‘‘agree to disagree’’ but we all know that they work hand in glove, and that is what must be preserved overall, the continuity of liberal democracy.

NATO’s so-called ‘‘peace’’ would be the peace of the sepulchers, ‘‘la paz de los sepulcros’’, an expression in Spanish to mean the absence of resistance, namely socialists and anything that looks like them, like our poor, black, indigenous, and brown families.

A Greek statue pfp spoke.

Yeah, youth is a very vulnerable time. I used to be that kid, too, that thought at 17 he had figured out most of what life was about. Thankfully, like you, I wasn’t as bad as this lad, but still, it sure is embarrassing to think back on.

This is a wee off topic but the ongoing coup in Venezuela has been very illustrative. On the 29th, after an uneventful election day on the 28th, riots began to form in small groups around the country, and these were mostly kids, and literal shitheads, as in criminals. It was very similar to the HK riots, where droves of youth were misled thanks to their British colonial education and social media. Old folks from Hong Kong knew better because they either lived through the Brit bullshit or had direct family that did. The same happens in Venezuela to an extent, the old people are aware of what the 4th Republic was and the rights they fought for that led to the Bolivarian Revolution. This is very common in post-socialist or AES countries, where kids can be misled easily, because all they’ve known has been life under socialist governments or have grown in a post-socialist landscape where socialism is blamed for everything. Our Eastern European comrades can attest to that. This is of course, on top of the capitalist propaganda we’re subjected to.

So, as with Milei, the youth were central to his election, and the youth have been the focus of fascist rhetoric through social media for quite some time. Without a revolutionary education to channel the energy of youth, it will decay into reaction against everything they’ve known. It is this misdirection that we broke with. But thanks, I wanted an excuse to develop that angle of how important social media is in indoctrinating youth.

The ‘‘Art of Framing’’ lmao.

That house is haunted by brainworm spirits from Twitter, it must be torn down, exorcised through diamat and then rebuilt as free housing in order to fully expiate the evil that dwelt inside.

Fuck yes, thanks, man. 😂 Hahaha

Fuuuck, I remember that one 🤣

Hacen una falta enorme…Ahora que sé que meticulousPotato es de allá lo voy a coger con calma y le dejo el trabajo a él pa’ que nos ponga al día, Jajajaja. Pero es que, coño, cuando uno ve tanta mierda por las redes y los medios uno se encojona, y por eso escribí aquello.

Hahaha, here’s the link to their page with some pics of the various projects they’ve done. I put 5.2m cause I wasn’t sure, but right now it’s at 5.1m.

Definitely the Guaidó posting over every fucking clown passing away or going out of office in every country at the time. There was another highlight, of a video from WION, if I recall, where they put Xi with a bazooka, and that was our pfp for a while. I just tried to find it and I couldn’t, maybe a comrade has it saved.

Hey, thanks to you for posting that about the PCV in more detail, cause all I knew was that Henry Parra was leading a separate branch. I’m glad the JCV is supporting the revolution. It’s an uphill battle, man…I’m terrible at effortposting, but I was thinking of making this a mini series where I go into separate things about them. I think sometimes, even among ourselves we lose sight of what Venezuela is, specially for us down here. Venceremos, hermano.
