Got that DSN (dick sucking nostril)

Since I'm not seeing a lot of voices in support: Thank you. For the first time in a long time, this feels like an idea that has a chance of working.

Too many people online get wrapped up in their echo chambers, then are surprised that the average person doesn't react well to the idea of complete societal collapse as a path forward.

If that's a requirement for your plan for the future, you don't have a true plan for the future.


For many, many years I've lived by the idea: "We don't get to live in the world as it should be, we have to work to affect change in the world that is."

Setting broad goals that work in the current flawed systems is how you do that.

Do I want UBI? Fuck yes. Do I want a better system than capitalism? Fuck yes. Do I want socialized healthcare and further socialozed systems for the benefit of all members of society? Fuck yes.

Do I think anything short of total, global, entire financial, technology, and societal collapse will cast off the yoke of capitalism within my lifetime or even in the lifetime of my potential grandchildren? No. I'm not even sure that would be enough to do it.

"Kill all who disagree" or "kill all of the old guard" is not an actionable plan.


Instead, this has bones as something that might be possible. Target the top of the top.

How ridiculous is it that we have people squabbling over relative tablescraps in the dumpster out back of the restaurant while ignoring the people feasting in the private room.

Yeah, new jeans and some red stuff still seems to bleed the first one or two washes in my experience.

Man, that still is one of the best tasting energy drinks I've ever had. Tasted just like orange cream soda, would never know it was an energy drink.

It's a shame, I'm pretty sure the company folded. You can still find pallets online, but I have no idea if they're legit, ancient back stock, or what.

Man, a lot of you are going to be absolutely fucked if we somehow don't have societal collapse.

No wonder so many people keep pushing accelerationist rhetoric.

Yes, there is discussion about ADHD, but none of that is part of this particular comment chain. It's not tough to go "show context" all the way up to the top level comment in this thread, and it's not anywhere between here and there. The only context in this thread is overmedication of children, and ADHD is not the only situation where that happens.

And as far as "lecturing" goes? You blew up over a single sentence. It's a run on, so we can call it three sentences, whatever.

Also, I didn't "psychoanalyze" you until you aggressively brought your own neurodivergence into the mix. Spoiler alert: I'm also one of those 90s-00s overmedicated ADHD kids. I'm calling out your personal lacking in emotional regulation because I have personal experience with it as well, and it's obvious as shit.

Wasn't it also used in the sequel, Shadow of War?

Still bullshit that something like that can be patented.

Don't come at me for missing context you didn't include. You said nothing about the over medication of ADHD in your comment.

It's right there. You can check it.

I'm sorry they didn't hold you back enough for you to learn proper communication or emotional regulation. That must be tough.

As one of those children

Hey, just a heads up that admitting you are a minor online isn't a good idea for lots of reasons, and that a number of lemmy instances will ban you for it (as they're officially 16 or 18+ by instance rules) rather than accepting having to deal with all the various complicated laws about handling the data of underage users.

Looks like IBM Plex Mono is my "winner", but they didn't have Consolas in the blind bracket for it to come up against.

Cool! Might finally break my addiction to Consolas patched with NerdFonts icons.
