I honestly can't think of anything more guilt-inducing than A Scanner Darkly's ending

not even alt-right or a perennialist but whoever made that page should get his head kicked in.

>Josef Stalin personally murdered 280 billion people with his bare hands

Why do tankies think that repeating the same fallacies as Nazis and Holocaust deniers somehow makes them more likeable and credible?

I actually made a decent thread about how to get into him yesterday. I had to bump it twice and got no responses, so i just gave up.

This thread got 3 replies in 2 minutes with horrible bait, so you can all go fuck yourselves, you brought this on yourselves.

>tfw German farmer
>tfw i should murder the shopkeeper in my local village because he's bourgeoise, even though i've known him and his family for years
>tfw i should instead identify with a chinese farmer halfway across the globe whose customs and race are foreign to me, because we're both farmers

Class consciousness is the dumbest thing there is. Sartre was right in saying that class was not homogenous, although he didn't dare to abandon communism.

Alright, this might become a rant, but whatever.

I've actually been an anarchist without adjectives for some time now, although i've grown disillusioned with the modern left, which has all but abandoned the notion of being a "real movement" and has instead adopted an attitude of moralizing everything. I had hoped that anarchism wouldn't fall prey to this (and it hasn't become as sterile as most communist spaces on the net), but i can still feel the rot seeping in, now that you have to police every fucking line that you say, and you get called a manarchist whenever you suggest that we should focus on class issues instead of alienating the workers by preaching to them about queer theory. I don't know, maybe i'm just getting too old, but it feels like the edge is gone. It feels like the entire movement lost its balls (i couldn't make that joke on some fora because it'd actually be transphobic, mind you). It's why i actually like /leftypol/.

Strangely enough, I've actually started to become a bit more sympathetic towards idealism and ideology, since it may very well be inevitable. So i started reading a bit about Hegelian idealism, and it turns out that almost all major work on that field (beyond Hegel himself) was done by Italian fascists and the occasional German fellow traveler.

I loathe Traditionalists and other religious reactionaries because of their romanticist bullshit, and i hate the tyrannical aspect of fascism, but i am sympathetic towards its syndicalist economics. I really cannot explain it, but there's something i really like about someone who is open about his hatred. No one is willing to admit that they hate anymore, and the few that do always follow it up with "i only hate you because you made me do it" or "my hatred is ethically sound".

We have far right parties on the rise, the US losing hegemony, Middle Eastern garbage, and looming job loss due to automation.

Foucault said that the French make up bullshit and gibberish because otherwise people won't think they're profound. Apparently it's much worse than 10%.

It can also be a philosophical work.
I figured people would realize that's what i meant, but some people are either too stupid or too autistic, apparently.

The idea that "diversity is a strength" is pure ideology and is actually only proposed by the powerful to suppress the masses.

Any contemporary highbrow erotica that's similar to the stuff De Sade used to write? Not in terms of bondage or whatever. Moreso books where maidenly early-adolescent girls are coerced or outright forced (physically or financially) into allowing themselves to be fondled, penetrated, or otherwise sexually performed upon by lecherous male figures, wherein at least a third of the prose depicts the physchological damage incurred by such acts as they occur.

>plan to release a Christmas short online (Amazon etc)
>go to edit it a two years after finishing it (i missed last year messing with other things)
>can't stand it
>wont have time to rewrite it before December

I'm bummed out i wont have much time soon to rework for winter. Fucks with my plans somewhat for "building a portfolio / following".

I guess the plus side is i can see how I've developed as a writer. That and the only one other person that did read it said it was good (and shes well read too). I feel she was just being nice at the time. Saying that she did forward it to her friend too who apparently liked it also.

Anyone else experienced any highs and lows of editing lately?

yes but not really about the things that I don't like, rather the behavior of others, the games they play and their implied presuppositions

everything has gotten subtly farcical
