I'm thankful that at least some people know there are okay anarchists, the best ones don't really post online much so I feel like there is a disproportionate representation of the ignorant ones on social media.

I came to DbZ because it was better than lemmy.world and I didn't know much about the fediverse, more and more I feel embarrassed by this username. This is why I have a hexbear account too, DbZ is hard to trust and the Hex welcomes good anarchists anyway. I just like being able to torture myself by being federated with .world

In the US I've seen anarchists and MLs working together no problem, during any action I haven't seen much disagreement, it seems more theoretical IMO.

I accidentally kicked a big ant in my apartment and broke his lil leg and I still feel the pain. Certain bugs are extra freaky looking so I kinda get there might be some instinctual defensive reaction I guess

I was like "there was a song I liked by Matisyahu in middle school, I haven't heard much about him since then" so I looked up some info about his views, I wish I hadn't 🤢

I mean I'm trying but I could always be more woke probably

Adjacently related, that sort of thing always makes me think of Black Cop by KRS-One

I could picture a pig shooting the ceiling like some kind of bank robber to intimidate people

Do you have low body fat? Idk how true it is but I've heard it leaves your system quickly if you're skinnier, I knew someone who smoked the day before and passed a test but he had basically no fat, he drank a bunch of water and something else like cranberry juice before because the test won't pass if you dilute it too much. So I'm not sure about the details but it's not impossible you could pass. You did mention your metabolism so maybe!

Hope it works out though, drug tests are bullshit. They don't even catch a lot of drugs, most harder drugs leave your system more quickly so it's less likely to be detected, it's mostly stoners who get punished by them.

I think more people have to be hungry, literally, underfed, fearful of where they are going to get food and of where they are going to live. It's so easy to ignore endless atrocities if your family is okay, you have food and you can easily turn away from the violence. Many people in the US have never experienced anything like what has driven most revolutionaries historically.

I think with the right vanguard things could happen though, most people know things are fucked regardless of politics. I have seen a lot of comments on reddit and elsewhere like 'I would fight in a revolution, I'm not gonna start it though'.
