I need one of you older marxists to tell me how much worse the fascism has gotten in the US. It feels like it has to be worse than it used to but I have basically no perspective as I only just began to look.

he’s literally me
I’ve been attempting to find a way to act but I’m quite rural and in the American south so there is 0 party presence here. I’m sure I will find something eventually but the isolation is truly killer. I know my writing is probably alarming but I’m mostly mentally ok, nothing I don’t think I can’t handle with care and I am in therapy. I’ve just learned quite a lot recently and got understandably concerned. Re-evaluating my priorities and such. Spending time with the people who care about me despite how surreal it can sometimes feel. I’m gonna keep working on finding ways to contribute in any way I can.
I’m actually a lot less worried about what will happen to me. Being in the imperial core and as priveleged as I am… I’m as secure as I can be for someone working class. I’m lucky in that regard. If greenhouse gas production ceased right now for good I might actually be fine. But I will have to watch an incomprehensable suffering because hundreds of millions of graves have already been dug with plastic shovels. I know that I will live my life asking why I didn’t do more even if I am to do everything I can. That is if I don’t eat bullets. This somehow felt overdramatic or self agrandizing to write out. I’m no saint and obviously I’m scared for my own life as well, starvation is of course horrifying, but I don’t think my dread can be narrowed down to just this. I think its the total powerlessness to prevent this genocide (even if everyone did everything they could) and the collective lack of political will and power to mitigate it that eats at me. I know that people will eventually be disillusioned but every day that they aren’t more people are sentenced to a cruel miserable death.
I’m gonna read more memoirs from revolutionaries. See what they did. I don’t know if I’ve internalized this reality enough to abandon my current way of life and give myself wholly to a revolutionary cause. I have so far been able to see through the illusion of our society but have maintained it outwardly. The coercion to abide by this illusion is hard to resist even when you are aware of it. I don’t know how much longer I can keep pretending a comfortable future exists.
bourgeois media propaganda trying to convince you that your eyes don’t see, your ears don’t hear and your brain can’t think for itself.
I am very afraid of how ai will affect this. If the ruling class is able to fully construct an automated or self-perpetuating and convincing false reality I think we are fucked. We should probably put thought into damaging data centers. Investment into augmented reality is also concerning but I don’t think the american working class is foolish enough to tie their own blindfold. Right?
I suppose this doesn’t need said to a comrade. We both already know better than to drool over tech treats lol. I’m just venting I think. Humanity will prevail I’m sure, I’m just highly impatient about it.
Ok but human bites are actually very dangerous and at risk for infection. He should be very glad he did not get bit by a human child
Even if they are very obviously attempting to kill you and the one’s you love? /gen
im not going to go out and kill folks even if the revolution has started
Revolutions often lead to or end up as civil wars. You may not have a choice. I’m not suggesting every revolutionary needs to carry 8 lbs of lead, there are plenty of ways to contribute and no one should be forced to commit acts of violence. But do learn how to shoot a gun. Violence is often something that is imposed upon us.
It has to do with the antisemitism doesn’t it
Jesus fucking christ

A lot of people are going to die or be displaced before anyone does anything and when they finally do something about it I fear their solution won’t be accepting migrants unconditionally and trasferring all our labor into providing human necessities.

Wow I was actually about to comment “do you take stimulants recreationally?” but scrolled up to reread the post first. When I came back down this was here lol.
This sounds like something I’d write if I had a euphoric stimulant fueled hyperfixation and didn’t sleep for a day or two. Drink some water OP, have a rest.
If they make people scared or angry enough
Ok but imagine if they were the one to succeed lmao
There is a wasp nest on my balcony. It is their balcony now, I feed them
