It's so stupid because I can literally buy a copy of Nabokov's Lolita, or a print of a Balthus painting (I guess because they're considered "classics" and more respected or something,) but if I'd imported Lyrical Nanoha doujins from Japan, I could get several years in prison for the crime of… What??? Buying foreign porn comics???? So far I've been just betting that the law has more important things to do than running around trying to put weebs in jail, but bourgeois policy being what it is, I'd rather oppose the laws altogether.

Anyone else really hate the "social theory" of transness?

That is, the idea that being trans is in some way caused by socialization and has no physiological component (ie brain differences, hormonal abnormalities, etc) to it at all. I keep seeing other lefty people, both trans and cis, repeat this. I'm not even going to get into all the evidence that points towards a physiological origin because my real point is that I honestly find the idea just really invalidating and kind of offensive. It's as if they're saying my dysphoria isn't real, that transness is equivalent to being a fashion choice and I just need to get over it or find a more accepting community or whatever instead of transition being a medical necessity.

Memes aside, how could the soviet republics have managed to keep unity and rivalize with the west whilst maintaining an image of a viable alternative to normal people from the 1980s-onwards ? Lastly, would a soviet model as it was intended to work in practice be actually desirable as a socialist model ?

how exactly do wignats expect to achieve their "ethnostate"

This is a question I have always had, usually when reading their forums they just go on and on about how they're going to magically deport 100 million non-whites from America and then they'll live happily ever after.
No actual realistic steps seem to be discussed ever. It's either pining for deportations or masturbatory fantasies about Total (insert boogeyman here) Death

Gen-Z aping: MADAGASCAR

After the Gen-Z screeching in Bangladesh, Indonesia, Nepal, it is now happening in King Julian's fief, MADAGASCAR. The whole package, with the One Piece cringe and all…

From Reuters:

''ANTANANARIVO, Sept 30 (Reuters) - Security forces fired teargas to disperse hundreds of young protesters in Madagascar's capital who took to the streets again on Tuesday despite the president's decision to partly yield to their demands by dissolving the government.
Andry Rajoelina went on state television late on Monday and said he wanted to create room for dialogue with young people pressing for access to water and an end to power cuts, and promised measures to support businesses affected by looting.''
''In a message on the protest movement's Facebook page, some of the protest organisers said they were disappointed by his speech and demanded an apology from him and the now dismissed prime minister, as well as the firing of Antananarivo's administrator.
Others went further, waving placards with messages such as "We need water, we need electricity, Rajoelina out", footage of protesters marching in the capital Antananarivo, broadcast on the privately owned broadcaster Real TV Madagasikara, showed.''

On Left-reactionarism

One can be sexist against men. Patriarchal society is institutionally sexist against men despite the benefits it provides. Gender liberationists acknowledge this and understand how feminist movements have also broadly benefited men.

One can be racist against 'white' people. 'White' supremacist society is institutionally harmful to 'whites' despite the benefits it provides. Anti-racists acknowledge this and understand how anti-racist movements have also broadly benefited 'whites'.

One can be classist against the bourgeoisie. Capitalist society is institutionally harmful to the bourgeoisie despite the benefits it provides. Socialists acknowledge this and understand how socialist movements have also broadly benefited the owning class.

Whether these prejudices are necessary or justified is a personal opinion. However, it is absurd and hilarious to pretend, for a common example, "you can't be racists against white people". This slogan signals denial, a post-liberalist rationalization, based on the idealist assumption that "racism is bad because uuhh it just is", and that they don't see themselves as bad, that their racism is therefore not racism. Instead, we must understand why racism is harmful to society, both institutional racism and other forms.

For another example, classism may be rationalized by oversimplifying the class tendency for the bourgeoisie to preserve their superiority. Perhaps a proletarian revolution, under the pressures of counterrevolution, may unfortunately resort to some form of classicide when circumstances don't give us the opportunity for nuance. This is not ideal, we know many heroic traitors of the bourgeois class who have sided with the proletarian movement. But it may be justified or rationalized when circumstances force it. For example, the regicide of the Romanovs was a tactically beneficial action. We've seen historical cases where royalty have rejected their title and privilege, but due to circumstances, the Bolsheviks would have been irresponsible to let the Romanovs live simply for this possibility, while on the other hand, the CPC were responsible to let Puyi live. Perhaps, if there were not an ongoing royalist civil war, the Romanovs could have been given a similar fate…

It's time for my contrarian take of the day (or middle of the night I guess.)

"Irony poisoning" is good actually.

What do I mean by this? Well, you know how sometimes reactoids will come out of the gate swinging with ridiculous straw-men like "Gommies killed gorillions, and Stalin was a satanist who ate babbies!!!" and sometimes some irony poisoned detached dirtbag leftist will reply like "Yeah so? It was based and epic pilled. Get over it chud. 😎 " Well I've recently seen anons call out this behavior and say that it is bad, but I've not seen any real articulation of why it is bad.

So I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say it is actually good to do this. My main reasoning is:
1. It is funny and appeals to my subjective sense of humor, and
2. It completely shuts down the moralistic presupposition that this entire argument is based on, ie "Killing is wrong, therefore Stalin is evil for killing" which allows for the discussion to either end briskly, or move onto something of actual importance.

>B-b-but if we do that then people will REALLY think we are a bunch of mass murdering cannibalistic sadist evil totalitarian baby eating-
Blah blah blah, now I don't like Stalin, and I'm not even an ML, but completely regardless with whether or not Stalin really did those things, or your judgement of them, this reads like you are genuinely more concerned with optics, vibes, feels, aesthetics, etc, ANYTHING BUT the material reality that exists objectively independently of your perceptions. The best reply to such idealistic tenancies is to save yourself time and brusquely tell them to fuck off. As an aside, I don't know if they were a regular here, but we had an anon make a thread that decried the "canonization of violence" among "the left" with the crux of their "argument" being that "violence is wrong." But they simply would not articulate why they thought violence was wrong.

You cannot reason with these people because they simply are not reasonable. So don't entertain their moralistic delusions, but do humor their greatest fears, because they are deep down inside nothing more than afraid.

Future Communism Stories Thread

*ring ring ring*

The light trickles through your curtains, it's time to get up. You sip your tea, watching the bustling crowds in the small forest grove between your commie block and the next. You volunteered for canteen duty today. As far as the eye can see are dense plantings of diverse species, yielding everything from food to material to make clothing. Groups of university students holding terminals are programming the machines to pick berries better, with the help of master gardeners and engineers.

Once at the canteen you put on your AR glasses and get to work. You've done this a few times now and already know what to do, so its guidance is minimal and the heads-up display hardly coaches you anymore. But right now it reminds you that today you are assigned to make lentil soup, with neon square laid upon your vision to tell you where the ingredients are stored lately and what your next steps are

It's always fun to learn a new recipe, you might make this one for yourself later. But so far today you've fed over 100 fellow workers lunch and you feel great about it. You walk along the river for half an hour and arrive at the next work site. You're helping the community build a house today in a rural region for a new family that moved from overseas to come farm, and your job is to maintain the 3d building printer and terraforming bots. Today goes smoothly and the house is built by sundown. The family looks thrilled and they invite you over for dinner next week which you accept graciously

On your way home you reflect on your career and what kind of work you want to do in the future. It means everything to you that these days, now that the workers have seized control of the means of production, work is meaningful and truly directed towards the wellbeing of the people.

Now post your story anon.

communism is a civic religion for the listed reasons

1-Teleological narrative: Communism offers a worldview with a clear historical purpose, such as the class struggle culminating in a classless society, resembling the eschatological narratives of traditional religions (e.g., the idea of a "paradise" or "salvation"). The idealized "communist future" functions as a transcendent goal.
2-Dogmas and orthodoxy: Communism, especially in its Marxist-Leninist form, presents canonical texts (e.g., Capital or the Communist Manifesto) and a "correct" interpretation of history and society, with little room for dissent. This resembles the orthodoxy of organized religions.
3-Rituals and symbols: Communist movements often adopt rituals, such as celebrations of revolutionary dates, anthems, flags, and cults of personality (e.g., Lenin, Mao, or Che Guevara), which reinforce social cohesion and devotion to the cause, similar to religious practices.
4-Morality and sacrifice: Communism demands loyalty, personal sacrifice, and adherence to a moral code (e.g., proletarian solidarity), often prioritizing the collective over the individual, echoing the ethics of many religions.
5-Faith in transformation: The belief in a radical transformation of society, even in the face of contrary evidence or practical difficulties, can be compared to religious faith, particularly in its resistance to empirical questioning.

AI Art Effortpost General V2.0:

So we're back with this since the old one died. This is a thread for those among us who use AI generation tools to share and discuss their work because /draw/ is a space for traditional art and there is no point in us intruding on their turf.

As usual, there are some guidelines for everyone posting to follow:

1. If you're sharing any art, preferably only post your own artwork. If you really wish to share someone else's art, always provide sauce to credit the original author.
2. Be willing to explain your process and tools used to others so they too can learn how to make art like you do.
3. Criticism is to be requested by the author, not handed out willy-nilly. Some people just want to share their work, not have it be deconstructed by every armchair critic that comes across it. Be respectful of their wishes.
4. Any work of yours that is posted ITT should meet at least two of the three following criteria:
A) Your work had at least the minimal amount of your own input. This can mean manual edits to generated images, the use of inpainting/outpainting tools, the use of controlnets, and so on. This also means you made an honest effort to check for obvious mistakes such as unwanted visual artifacts or anatomical errors and fix them. Basically as long as your contribution to the piece included more than typing the prompt, it counts.
B) Your work has a specific style to it. This can mean a specific medium like oil painting, black and white ink sketch, a LORA based on a specific artist's style (or even a hybrid of two styles!) and so on. No default shiny "hyperrealistic" anime style please, the internet already has enough of those.
C) Your work made use of tools that were free/open-source when making the piece and you did not willingly give your data/money to owners of proprietary software like OpenAI

Anyway, with all covered. Happy generating!

Ameri-Leftoids: Libs in Disguise?

I wonder if most American "leftists" (democratic socialists or otherwise) deep down are just educated liberals who are really angry about the US not having the welfare state and social protections other countries (particularly those in Europe) have, and jump towards leftism as a solution to the worsening inequalities to the world and abroad, thinking it'll be the best way to forcefully express their anger and enact the change (this probably also applies to non-American lefties to a lesser extent but let's focus on burgers). The "educated lib" part also explains why they tend to lash out and be super arrogant and scoldy towards other Americans who aren't leftie, and seem to just really hate working-class Americans who have conservative beliefs - something I see a lot of educated libs do in the US. Maybe I'm projecting, but I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of leftie millennials and zoomers felt this way. At the same time, though, it does make me think that what these people truly want is to "flee" or move to a developed nation with a social democractic welfare state (or really just universal healthcare at the bare minimum) like Canada (lol) or somewhere in Europe and live comfortably, and then drop their leftist beliefs to become a center-left/centrist/center-right/center-whatever European. Like, I don't have any problem with wanting to move to another country - it's always interesting to live abroad - but if your desire is to escape to Europe so you can be comfortable there and just do nothing else while sneering at Americans for being morons, I wonder how you'd react to the growing power of the far-right in Europe. As of writing we already have a fascist in Giorgia Meloni governing as PM in Italy, and AfD is the second largest party in the Bundestag and are the largest opposition party - it's not a good trend. Are they going to just sit around doing nothing but posture like libs talking about how bad Europeans (particuarly disillusioned, angry working class Euros) who vote for far-right parties are and how they deserve the suffering that comes to them like they do with Americans and/or retreat to their social safety nets, saying to themselves "at least we're not America" ad nauseam as things get worse and Europe continues to be cruel towards immigrants, or will they actually engage in leftist organizing in their new countries to make things better beyond social democracy, even if it involves participating in demsucc parties?

idk man, as an American myself who loves geography, traveling and learning about other countries sometimes it feels like Americans really do just view other developed countries as "le utopias with universal healthcare" that are glorified safe houses for them to escape to without having to do the long, hard, boring work of organizing to achieve it in the US rather than actually caring about the countries or their culture, or how they got their welfare states in the first place.

boo id politik

I have no desire to claim or identify with 'womanhood' so much as i absolutely reject 'manhood'. i do like presenting femme, i had an orchiectomy; but i feel like i have a lot of trouble relating to mainstream trans politics being so invested in being 'valid' or belonging to some specific identity, label, or class. I get frustrated when well-meaning allies lean really hard on 'oh but you are a girl', or go out of their way to correct other people about my pronouns/gender. Frankly i think it's a detriment to things like reproductive healthcare rights and just general sexism and gender liberation to go all in on 'trans women are women!'; i'm not saying they're /not/ but, there are differences of experience and there's a lot of nuance and edge-case discourse to be had.

idunno just curious if anybody relates to gender similarly.

You know what the problem is with communism? It isn't funny. You can say about capitalism what ever you want, but perhaps because it is so irrational, it creates a lot of funny stuff (even if it costs tons of rescoruces). The thing is, communism is the opposite of capitalism. Communism is rational, capitalism is irrational. But isn't existence as a whole absurd anyway? So what if the capitalists are right in the end?

I thought vtubers were just a COVID fad because everyone had cabin fever from being stuck indoors for weeks, and when COVID was over only the most advanced of weebs would still watch them. Yet, they've managed to stick around even to this day and I still hear about them. I don't get it.

Personally, I am an anti-anti-pedophile, that doesn't mean I endorse pedophilia, far from it.

But I don't think its much of a stretch to say that anti-pedophilia is easily the worst product of pedophilia.

Just read through the Wikipedia page on anti-pedophilia "activism" [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-pedophile_activism]

See what kind of people throw their weight behind such a movement, take a look at their list of "achievements."
It really does speak for itself.

Articles and books on revolutionary violence and guerrilla warfare.

Some time ago I made a post as a kind of vent about the need for revolutionary violence and the importance of militancy.

In that post, people recommended some articles about guerrilla warfare and violence, which I had saved until I finally made a digital reading list; however, they were lost because I had to reset my phone.

Although I tried to search for them, I don't clearly remember which articles they were, and then I thought maybe I could ask here if you could share readings on the subject so I can see which ones they were.

It would be a great help if you could.

Autistic Pride and Anti-Greg manifesto

Daily reminder that most NTs will always hate autists on a subconscious level no matter how hard you try to "mask". Don't let the bad NTs and the crabs (e.g. Gregs) tear you down.
I will NOT:
>mask
>engage in small talk
>look you in the eye
>keep up with the latest fashion and trends
I WILL:
>stim and fidget in public
>infodump about special interests
>walk on my toes

How to pass

It feels like there are two realities for trans people. Some people just pass effortlessly somehow, and then other people can't pass no matter how they try unless it is with a very specific camera angle and lighting.

What do you think? Does anyone here pass? Not saying you have to pass to be properly trans but also I think people saying they are fine with not passing are just coping. It just feels so frustrating seeing these people who just pass effortlessly and then I'm spending years to get nowhere with voice training and my hands are too shaky to do makeup.

I can’t bring myself to start hrt

There’s so many things that seemingly make it impossible for me to start hrt.

I have an extreme phobia of needles. It’s genuinely ruining my life. I know that there’s other forms of hrt that aren’t injections, but either way I would still need to use a needle on myself to do blood tests.

And then there’s the effects hrt has on the genitals. I would love every effect of hrt if it wasn’t for the effects it has on genitalia. I know using it will prevent atrophy, but it still won’t prevent my balls from shriveling up and the dck from shrinking. I don’t have bottom dysphoria and my genitals are one of the few parts of my body that I don’t actively hate.

And lastly, I’m afraid I’ll miss out on the experiwnce of being a gay guy. I’ve never been in a relationship as a man, but mlm relationships seem to be much more loving and deeper than straight relationships are. I’m scared I’ll never experience true love with a straight man if I transitioned to being a woman. (Especially since many men who want to date trans women are just chasers)

All of this shit just piles up to make me feel too much fear and anxiety to start hrt. I don’t know what to do

Why do leftists deny the existence of the nomenklatura class? That is, the class of professional officials (rus. сhinovniks).

Why is the nomenklatura a class?
1. They have specialized universities and specialized faculties that train the nomenklatura: the Institute of Public Administration, Customs, Law, Diplomacy, the Institute of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and so on.
2. They never change their occupation. Once they become members of the nomenklatura, they only move from one government position to another.
3. They pass on their membership in the class by inheritance. The child of an official is highly likely to become an official.
4. They have their own closed social circle. Officials almost never hang out with proles.
5. They are empowered to control the means of production.

Backward Europe and Advanced Asia

The comparison sounds like a paradox. Who does not know that Europe is advanced and Asia backward? But the words taken for this title contain a bitter truth.

In civilised and advanced Europe, with its highly developed machine industry, its rich, multiform culture and its constitutions, a point in history has been reached when the commanding bourgeoisie, fearing the growth and increasing strength of the proletariat, comes out in support of every thing backward, moribund and medieval. The bourgeoisie is hying out its last days, and is joining with all obsolete and obsolescent forces in an attempt to preserve tottering wage-slavery.

Advanced Europe is commanded by a bourgeoisie which supports everything that is backward. The Europe of our day is advanced not thanks to, but in spite of, the bourgeoisie, for it is only the proletariat that is adding to the million-strong army of fighters for a better future. It alone preserves and spreads implacable enmity towards backwardness, savagery, privilege, slavery and the humiliation of man by man.

In “advanced” Europe, the sole advanced class is the proletariat. As for the living bourgeoisie, it is prepared to go to any length of savagery, brutality and crime in order to uphold dying capitalist slavery.

And a more striking example of this decay of the entire European bourgeoisie can scarcely be cited than the support it is lending to reaction in Asia in furtherance of the selfish aims of the financial manipulators and capitalist swindlers.

Assata Shakur 1947-2025

One of the most important New Afrikan women revolutionaries passed away today.

Assata was a tireless fighter for her people, a symbol of resistance for all those who fight against white supremacy, US imperialism, and police brutality. In 1984, Assata took refuge in Cuba where she lived free from fascist AmeriKKKan persecution for the rest of her life.

Why leftypol doesn’t acknowledge her and her legacy exposes the reactionary nature of this board.

Rest in power Assata. Your legacy will live on forever.

Having trouble relating to other trans people.

Why can’t I relate to other trans people? I just can’t relate to the level of comfort and pride and self-love many of them have. It genuinely seems like so many of them don’t have the part of the brain that makes them cringe. They’re just so unfiltered and unapologetic, I just can’t relate at all, I constantly feel like a gross disgusting excuse for a woman and feel scared interacting with the world as one. I don’t know why I cling so strongly onto this meekness, maybe it’s misogyny, I just associate being boisterous and loud with being masculine. I can’t relate to how willing they are to make cringy niche trans memes to their cis friends. I just am so anxious to discuss transness in any open forum where I know cis people might see it. I admit I still have this kind of backwards view that being trans is something shameful and it would be better to stealth if possible. Idk what to do, I want this level of comraderie other trans people have but being in trans spaces, especially trans women spaces just makes me cringe, it either feels like it’s full of very bro-ish sorts of trans women who are unapologetically masculine, or trans women who feel sort of overly preformatively feminine. I genuinely just can’t relate to most of trans culture right now.

War between PRC and USA

I think people underestimate the USA. I think the USA would lose in a normal war against the PRC. But the USA doesn't play fair. I think the USA would pull every dirty trick in the book and only escalate to open warfare when the PRC is already destabilized. I believe that USA would definitely use chemical and biological weapons. The ground would be prepared with drugs, crime, fascist pedo-cults, schizo-spree killers, heightened ethnic conflict, mass protests and labor strikes. The next step would be escalation into sanctions, lawfare, plagues and mass poisonings. Then a proxy war in Xinjiang, Taiwan, Japan and South Korea. The USA would only actually step in when the PRC is already half-dead.

What’s stopping China from helping Detroit?

Think about it. China does foreign policy based on sift power rather than militarism or blackmail. China builds hospitals in Mali in exchange for good, rather than invading and seizing the gold for themselves. China is the reason hundreds of millions of people in Africa have electricity and running water, right? If China can do this, why aren’t they stepping in and helping Detroit rebuild?

China could fund mass construction projects. Build housing all over Detroit that resembles housing in Chinese cities. Build a functioning metro/train system. Build more hospitals. Build better schools that look like wonder museums rather than prisons. Build urban farms to fix the food desert issue. Give Detroit the latest and greatest tech. Bring back millions of jobs. Why not?

China turns shitholes into functioning cities. Just compare their cities from 37 years ago to their cities now. They could easily do the same for Detroit. Trump Administration be damned. Just get the mayor of Detroit to form a working relationship with Xi and the CPC and watch things happen.

Do RTS developers just not understand tactics?

For real life military tactics, well tactics are actually pretty ancient. The historical cause for large scale formations and mass marches was mainly caused by either poor education among common soldiers or weapons too heavy/large to carry easily. Otherwise, squad level tactics, raids, deception warfare, mobility, and other “tacticool” nonsense has been a part of war for eons or possibly thousands of years. The main enabler is usually mobility for infantry soldiers to avoid having to rely on mobs of slow moving men for battles.
I don’t see why in nearly every RTS game I’ve seen, seemingly everything revolves around post feudal era mob tactics you’d find from countries like Britain, Germany, or the USA before it started getting into formal warfare. Am I just missing something?

fandoms & communities

ever since i left fandom spaces i felt mentally better than i was for the past couple of months to perhaps 2 to 3 years or so mainly cause of the furry fandom but also because of fandom discourse appearing around the morality of drawings on my feed too as well as being on social media. i tried giving roblox fandoms a chance but i gave up and stuck to furry. but the amount of puritanism, reactionaries, and modern day burned furs in the fandom ruined my mental health further so i left the fandom and decided to focus on my interests ever since. i also quit social media as well, deleted my xitter account, and used tumblr and bluesky less now (not like i was planning to use the latter to begin with). i also left the art community as well despite me being an artist myself and put more focus on art as a hobby than as a commodity just to form an online platform. i’m still planning to have some sort of platform, but it will mostly be random stuff cause it’s my platform after all, and i can do whatever the fuck i want to do with it. esp if i gained 34k subscribers/followers (which i dont have but it would probably be interesting or nice to have at some point in the future). despite communities being a complicated topic and “it just depends idk man” thing cause niche communities tend to be way better in my experience. and art is a fun hobby or tool to entertain yourself and others. to me, it felt like modern day fandoms, art and bigger “communities” are a result of capitalism, and reactionary culture/sub cultures invading spaces, and fandoms started off in the past as something revolutionary a step towards feminism. but that’s just me i guess, and i don’t even know what the fuck am i talking about, im just a jaded retard on the internet using leftypol as a place to complain and share my struggles. what do i know much about politics anyways

There seems to never be any videos of it.

There's a video circulating around 4chan sometimes of an Indian man butt raping a grandpa, and it struck me that with all the fucked up shit I've seen that has made its way through the internet, this is literally the one and only rape video. Not that I want to see more rape videos, it's just bizarre that with all the rapes that are supposed to be happening at least according to statistics, you never see the circulation of rape shock videos like you do with gore and snuff shit. Do people just not film rapes?

Let me explain to you which is something I apply on my daily life: hetmoids are literally over 90% hateful violent subhumans who want us gone (either dead or forcefully repressed), treating this particular demographic like vermin is the best thing we can apply to our daily lives. Show kindness and empathy only to women and queers. However these subhumans are violent by their very nature and will always look for excuses to assault you so adopt a passive-aggressive stance against them. Let me give some examples:

Some hetmoid tries to start conversation with you? Go monossilabic with a harsh tone, make them understand how unpleasant and unwelcome their presence is to you until they fuck off, while engaging and being kind with queers and women.
Hetmoid delivery, waiter, cashier? Don't thank it, don't engage with it and NEVER tip
Hetmoid hobo? Ignore it completely and tell it to get a job if it harasses you
ALWAYS look for any excuse to fuck over an hetmoid at school or work, see them doing something wrong? Breaking rules? Don't hesitate for a sec to report them


In short, be harsh, abrasive and apathetic to these rats, don't engage with them, don't speak to them unless strictly necessary, NEVER compliment them for anything, NEVER help them, but don't make it too obvious, understand they're violent creatures and will look for any excuse to assault and try to murder you. Bonus point if you act the completely opposite with women and queer men near them

Show kindness and solidarity only to our own and Women who are mostly allies regardless of orientation

>UNITED NATIONS, Aug 22 (Reuters) - Gaza City and surrounding areas are officially suffering from famine, and it will likely spread, a global hunger monitor determined on Friday, an assessment that will escalate pressure on Israel to allow more aid into the Palestinian enclave.

<It was the first time the IPC has recorded famine outside of Africa, and the global group predicted that famine conditions would spread to the central and southern areas of Deir al-Balah and Khan Younis by the end of next month.

Anon's anonymous email guide

since the server crash ate my last thread about how to create anonymous email users over Tor in the age of cuckflare, I decided to recreate my findings from it. the goal is simple: create an email with a host that is considered trustworthy in most places online, using Tor Browser
I assume you're on a Debian-like system, including Ubuntu or Linux Mint. use a password manager like keepassx to generate unique passwords for all services. DO NOT USE ANY PASSWORDS THAT YOU USE FOR ANY OTHER ACCOUNTS. avoid using any special characters in your passwords, because configuring mutt with them seems to work poorly

for this exercise you will need Javascript enabled in Tor Browser. the middle "Safer" setting should work. perhaps in the future I will figure out a way with scripts disabled. the target of this guide is protonmail. in my experience it is considered trustworthy enough for signing up for various services
we will use a series of what I will call "springboards", where we move from a less trusted service to a more trusted one, until we get to protonmail which has rather strict standards for what it considers trustworthy for email verification

the guide below will go cock.li -> kolabnow.com -> proton.me

>level 0: cock.li
run by chvddie-adjacent people. uses colorful domain names like cock.li, loves.dicksinhisan.us and horsefucker.org, so it is generally considered untrustworthy by almost everyone. but it has the benefit of easy signup. it will therefore serve as our level 0 service. it has some hidden services:
rurcblzhmdk22kttfkel2zduhyu3r6to7knyc7wiorzrx5gw4c3lftad.onion for web
xdkriz6cn2avvcr2vks5lvvtmfojz2ohjzj4fhyuka55mvljeso2ztqd.onion for email (IMAP, POP) and chat (XMPP)
the clearnet web service tends to work better for signup for some reason, so use https://cock.li/ to sign up. using the cock.li domain for your email seems to work best - I tried using airmail.cc but had problems logging in
cock.li currently does not have a webmail. look further down for a short guide how to set up an IMAP client (mutt) that runs via Tor
you can solve the Proof-of-Work thing if you want, but it's not necessary for this guide since we only need to be able to receive email on this account. solving the PoW took 20 minutes on my crappy machine. you need to set the "Standard" safety option in Tor Browser

>level 1: kolabnow.com
register a free account and use your cock.li account to verify it. after a while an email with a registration code should show up in your cock.li inbox. use it

>level 2: proton.me
the Tor service works poorly, so use the clearnet one. click "Create a free account", then "use your current email" and enter your kolabnow email. go to kolabnow.com and check your webmail, copy-paste the code into proton. only now will you get to choose your username. a bit annoying but whatever. success! you now have a moderately trustworthy email address that you can use to sign up all over the place!

>how to set up cock.li with mutt
mutt is a command-line (ncurses) email client. you will also need torify. it should come with the tor package. install both using apt

sudo apt install mutt tor

next set up mutt. you need to percent encode (%40) the at sign (@) in your username in the IMAP (and possibly SMTP) URLs. on a fresh user the following should work for an account like [email protected]

mkdir .mutt
export USERNAME=mycoolaccount
export DOMAIN=cock.li
export PASSWORD=YOUR_COCKLI_PASSWORD
cat > .mutt/muttrc <<EOF
# Based on https://www.riseup.net/en/mutt
# Account
set realname  = 'Anonymous'
set from      = ${USERNAME}@${DOMAIN}

# Send
set smtp_url  = smtps://${USERNAME}%40${DOMAIN}@xdkriz6cn2avvcr2vks5lvvtmfojz2ohjzj4fhyuka55mvljeso2ztqd.onion/
set smtp_pass = $PASSWORD

# Connection
set ssl_force_tls = yes
set ssl_starttls  = yes

# Receive
set imap_user = ${USERNAME}@${DOMAIN}
set imap_pass = $PASSWORD
set folder    = imaps://${USERNAME}%40${DOMAIN}@xdkriz6cn2avvcr2vks5lvvtmfojz2ohjzj4fhyuka55mvljeso2ztqd.onion/
set imap_check_subscribed

# Folder
set spoolfile = +INBOX
set postponed = +Drafts
set record    = +Sent
EOF

be aware that the password is stored in plaintext. if you're super paranoid then omit it from muttrc and copy-paste from keepassx into mutt every time
next run mutt via torify

torify mutt

hopefully you should see yourself logging in successfully. (a)ccept any certificate. hooray!

>future work
try more email services, document which ones work as springboards for each other. I'm working on a graphviz thing for this

Dump all the seemingly pointless, dubious, and frivolous questions that don't deserve their own shitty threads.

Got a question that's probably been asked a million times before? You're in the right landfill, buddy. Post it here.

Threads that otherwise might go in here will eventually find themselves become merged to this thread.

Crackers love animal dicks

What’s the material condition that crackers have highest bestiality rates per capita on races?

They have big obsession with animal dicks for some weird reasons.
