  • Can we agree that cigarettes cause cancer, or is that lazy and reductive as well?

    Other things cause cancer, sure, but we are talking about cigarettes right now. Because there is a cigarette right in front of us, causing cancer.

    Analogies aside. I am talking (again) specifically about what made this article, who perpetuated it, spread it around, and for what reason? The same reason that imperialist fascism, the final evolution of capitalism before it implodes under the illusion of its own “infinite growth and adaptability”, did the exact same thing to trans people and neurodivergent people under the nazi regime in the 30’s and 40’s. Which, if you havent heard about, is back in style in the USA, concentration camps, and all.

    This is a snapshot of propaganda with literal context in the photo that dictates exactly what im talking about. And you are out here ignoring analysis that you claim to want, and calling me lazy for pointing it out, giving further breakdown of my analogies, and giving my anecdotal experience of being neurodivergent under the capitalistic system we live in?¿

    Pointing this out is not ignoring the history of human cruelty, it gives context as to how human cruelty can create a system that perpetuates it. and what that looks like. And more importantly, if we cant address the flaws of the system we currently live under, then we are doomed to repeat its agonies again, and again, until it consumes us all.

    To simplify my statement, while including yours, so we can both go back to our families.

    Humans can be big meanie weenies, capitalism rewards meanie weenie behaviour.


  • My point was that we live under capitalism, therefore this is one way capitalism handles neuro divergence. We can go day and night about what we think or know about other times and systems and how they treated “others” but i was merely pointing out the propaganda that is marketing under capitalism, and how they use it to make us self regulate ourselves out of commonality and acceptance, to save money on the next quarter, at the cost of human life.

    Is it just capitalism that alienates and destroys the lives of people who are different? No, absolutely not. However, this specific article is a prime example of how capitalism (today) handles neurodivergence by gaslighting us against our own existence via marketing and propaganda. Corporations hate paying for accomodations, it effects their bottom line. And thats the point i was making. This is how capitalism views us, this is how it handles us, this is how they weaponise our existence, for power and profit.

    I understand your point and mostly agree. However i just dont have anecdotal experience living as a herbalist in the darkages, lol. And i dont believe whataboutism addresses the issues we face specifically from the system we live under right now in the present.




  • Autism (neuro divergence in general really) under capitalism, is the engineering equivilent to being a sacrificial gear in a gear box. You have your purpose, you do it well when placed in the proper gear set. But you wear out faster than all the other gears, not because you are a bad gear, but because the system itself was designed to crush you rather than crush the bigger more expensive gears. It was built for their longevity and success, not yours. This is them giving the squeeky wheel or “gear” “the grease” in a fucked up way.

    They are trying to gaslight different groups into thinking they are just a regular normal gear, and they need to just work harder, even if it means the gear breaks quicker as a result. We are cheaper to replace than we are to repair, and that is the logic that makes capitalism unworthy of human participation, it is inherently anti human in all spectrums.






  • The fact that they are quoting a director whos biggest claim to fame was 30 years ago is very telling of his present state of mind. His best ideas are stolen, he hates copyright because he lacks any talent. He cant direct, but wants to with limited effort.

    Ive worked with directors like this before, they use the word “homage” for every shot they take, they let the AD do all the actual directing work, and they sit behind the monitor looking at their cellphone during a take, and bitch occaisionally that they are running out of daylight while contributing nothing to the production besides their name and some bullshit personal relation from their childhood to the story being told in the film during a promo interview, a script which they didnt even write, they were just available when the studio called them to pump out another turd of a film. And in order to get people in the seats they claim its a “ground breaking cinematic experience” or some shit. Taking alllllllll the credit while being the smuggest piece of shit loser you have ever met. They also almost always cheat on their wives with some head of departmemt or cast member or at least try to. And they fucking LOVE blow… and shitting on every technician they can, outsourcing blame for their own ineptitude whenever possible.

    Theres a really good example of this type of person in the show “brand new cherry flavor”

    We all have our names for them, but my favourites are: dip shit moron, piece of shit loser, parasite, and of course, cunt.







  • its kind of funny to see the neoliberal conservatives (capitalists) rally to preserve a dying system by creating new trade coridors to escape the fallout of last years neoliberal conservatism (capitalism)

    “wait guys, it’ll work this time, i promise, please bro, just let us lift environmental regulations and take privately owned land, give it to the indigenous, and then take that same indigenous land that we suddenly care about giving back, because we made a new law that says we can do that for nation building projects, some that are primarily owned by foreign internationals, much of which are american and linked to MAGA, please bro. just one more LNG plant and some more pipelines and i swear we will fix global warming right after, please bro, come on. WE PROMISE not to send our shiny new military to die abroad, its only for domestic defense and support roles, we PROMISE BRO, come on!”



  • a guy burned down a warehouse a few days ago (pictured) recorded himself saying that “they should have just paid us enough to fucking live” it went viral, and as of my current understanding there are up to 9 more warehouses/store fronts that have been burned in different states by arson. people are attributing this rise in arson to the initial arson done by this man, and people are now thinking its the beginning of a more direct class war, and are calling for similar increases in resistance as well. this seems as of this writing to be a catalyst event for more civil disobediance and direct sabotage by the american people against the ruling class.
