(on reflection this kinda do be fitting gossip, but i’m still annoyed )
freaky pronoun brigade
The most begrudging, perfunctory press of the Y key in human history
Well Kazin, I’d love to explain to you what epitets I use for right wingers, but then the FBI would come pay me a visit.
Also, my favorite kind of person “What if we imagined a left without any ideals at all?”
Right! Just believe in nothing and be a completely self interested homo economicus who fills exactly the social role I want you to!
Feline of the 23rd Freaky Pronoun Brigade reporting for duty, COMRADE!
Shit, we’re a paramilitary now? Do I get to leave but keep pronouns if I damage my body enough?
Private Feline! Have you cleaned your sets pronouns this morning? Is that a spot of dirt i’m seeing on the y?
One problem with this “public figure” based split of comms is that I have no fucking clue who these alleged “public figures” are.
But i’ve written who kazin is
I have no fucking clue what “dissent magazine” is either. Literally who ass magazine
Then this latest gossip drop is notfor you
aspire to your greatness
niche gossip is gossip, just cant be joe nobody.
These people are joe nobody
Sohrab Ahmari is an outspoken reactionary and an adult convert to Catholicism
Yes, so why kazin retweeting him 🧠
Imagine a left, but the right.
I want to exterminate the brutes and put all the ***s in the closet, but I do think socialism is a neat idea as long as its only for me. Oh also unhoused people, wood chipper, compost? Maybe?
Such a shame there’s no word for this completely new idea.
So a PatSoc, but somehow even shittier?
No, more like shitlib with atlanticist aesthetics. This + some nation articles say: leftist boomers/gen-x are not okay, their socdemery is millimeter thick, their comfy tenure is miles deep
(im scared to learn what angela davis thinks, ngl)
more like pissent
Imagine a left without the freaky pronoun brigade? Good luck, They’ll have a very difficult time getting rid of me
That tweet mkazin retweeted is pure NazBol shit.
Slightly off topic, but I cannot recommend enough Malcolm Harris’s book Palo Alto: A History of California, Capitalism, and the World, if you’re interested in tech at all. I’m almost done with the book and it’s sooo good. He does an excellent job of writing a compelling narrative relating to the history of silicon valley, and to be honest it’s been a real page turner despite being a dense history book.
Kids These Days: Human Capital and the Making of Millennials is also excellent
“dissent”
Ok but what if the left was more… Right wing?
Dissent Magazine, I only checked them out once, the main article on their front page was about the fall of the Eastern bloc. Wasn’t familiar with the author, so I googled her name. The first hit was to her profile on the NED page lol. Never gonna check Dissent Magazine again, they are what some term the “Compatible Left”. Either directly funded by CIA, or serves the purpose of the US State Department.
