Millennials pioneered trolling and cyberbullying. Their political organizations are full of backbiting, gossip, and ladder climbing, just like their forebears. They also invented "irony bros" so I dunno what you mean about them being earnest.

>Millennials re-introduced empathy and social progress
Where? All I've seen is a steady decline. People were nicer back in the 90s. Probably because of the better economy, but still.

I’m gonna have to somewhat disagree with this. People weren’t necessarily nicer back in the 1990s. It’s just that a lot of our vitriol wasn’t as easily exposed as nowadays.

We had doomsday cults and Beckies out the wazoo.

Is this a new meme? I never saw soyllenials obsessing over this particular dish more than other gens.

Gen IDpol was always intimately tied to suburban american culture. I'm assuming this has some behavioral connection to that, which ad companies have picked up on
>soyl-
never met a person my age that consumed soylent either. but i am a working class "millennial" so why would i be part of this manufactured online "Conversation".

>>808683
This. The whole modern “teenager” stereotype is mainly an Anglo American suburban invention
What’s sad is them at Gen idpol I has become the new form of acceptable discrimination because race, gender, sexuality , and even political orientation (to a certain degree) is considered overdone and bad

Bringing back the USSR.

Can't beat komugi on that one

What about Mugi?

>>808656
made for bbc too

Why are there no chibi/moe male mascots?

>>808472
Well, that's because people in general lack that kind of empathy and are cruel.

>>808472
No that's race essentialism. If you're a Real Leftist (tm) you have to believe Euros became evil because of efficient agriculture and they lived in many small states competing with each other. Although Marx and Engels dabbled in weird race stuff. I wonder if they were around now they'd be like those bio-truthers who go into the weeds about how northern Euros are autistic because they don't have enough sunlight and lived too far apart for too long or something.

Forgot to add if you want to do WOKE SPIRITUAL ANTI-CAPITALISM you can blame everything on the Wetiko virus which can corrupt anyone anywhere.

I'm with you, regardless of our political differences.. Though, nothing can be done.

>voting
I never vote, no regrets.

>>808566
Yea that’s what I meant by running for Independent. It was a brief stint.

I honestly think Donald Trumps political debacle of the 2010s and 2020s are meant to be the swan song of his career and life.

I like how mkultra is just an openly known thing that the cia did but the average burger/westoid still thinks the usa are the "good guys"

>>808585
Do you know what average are you fucking retard?

>>808629
my fat chud retard uncle said we had to bomb iran first or they were gonna do it to us. this flawless logic works for any unprovoked aggression.

Wasn't there some hindu thing like this but with breathing, and practiced pranayama to slow their breathing down and live longer?

Its mostly /pol/ shills who spam le jews memes. Dont fall for their bait.

It's a raid of attrition. Just report it and the jannies will get to it in 4 to 8 business days.

I see this throughout the Internet as a whole. On YouTube I can't go to one comment section on a video about Jews without a bunch of nazoids seething about them. Nazis have ruined discourse around Judaism with their faggotry by convincing the normtards that any sort of criticism of Judaism or Zionism is anti-semitism.

>have ruined discourse around Judaism with their faggotry by convincing the normtards that any sort of criticism of Judaism or Zionism is anti-semitism.
pretty sure the jews did that in particular themselves because it makes it easier to deflect criticism

>Politics can only exist because of evolution/nature
yes. politics is natural and it is impossible to escape politics. one can only pretend to transcend it, which pretending is itself a highly political act.

>>808592
realise that 99% of politics is people signalling their personality type and so should not be taken seriously.
high openness, high agreeableness? leftist or liberal
low openness, low agreeableness? conservative or fascist
high openness, low agreeableness? generally some kind of libertarian or ancap, occasionally a prickly leftist or esoteric rightoid.

since this isn't easy, another option is to cultivate great open-mindedness. allow yourself to be convinced by elements of both communist and bourgeois econ theories, while picking up other eclectic stuff from random weirdoes, such that you're generally in a neutral position when it comes to anything against abject idiocy.

>>808607
naive, for most opposition to the status quo is also incorporated into it. why do you think /leftypol/ exists, if not because the overall structure of society has evolved in such a way as to let it exist?
in a brittle authoritarian society, you crack down on dissenters because if enough people go "the status quo sucks", they might actually overthrow you.
in our current society, you actively sell the idea that the status quo sucks because people are disempowered enough that it just acts as a release valve, and in any case they disagree (based on personality) as to exactly why the status quo sucks. does it suck because capitalism is mean and exploitative and the world has trade-offs that you don't want to make, or does it suck because you have to see brown people and women and brown transgender women when you go on /v/ specifically to get mad about those people?

to be genuinely political you must have some power or influence as a political actor. it makes not one jot of difference whether i post here in opposition to the status quo or in its defence. posting is just posting, to be genuinely political i'd have to organise, and not only organise but do so effectively. (pretty much every western "communist" party is an apolitical LARP.)

source on this statistic you have provided?

>opposition to the status quo is also incorporated into it
even more evidence that it is impossible to be apolitical. anyway. false opposition or recuperated opposition or kayfabe or whatever you want to call it is not true opposition. true opposition takes a material form of real violent resistance. you can tell one from the other quite easily. If you are a real threat, you will be violently suppressed.

if you magically disappeared and it would have no effect in the political situation, it is safe to say that you are "apolitical" in the sense in which you mean it. it therefore comes as no harm to cultivate "apolitical" attitudes as OP means it. if you are neither for the status quo, nor truly against it, what can your position sum to except zero?
(this before we get into the complications where your attitude, actions, and actual results are not always coherently linked if you are a political actor. think, for example, of Gorbachev destroying the USSR.)

it is true that real threats will, in the last resort, be violently suppressed, but many violent non-threats are also violently suppressed. 250+ US mass shooters this year so far, many of whom ate a police bullet, all of whom are irrelevant in the grand scheme of things. "apolitical" nutters even if they had a LARP manifesto.
(but i will obviously grant that, say, all the arrested pro-Palestine people in the UK are "political". i would take Britain and Trump's turn towards more overt repression and reaction as a mark of underlying weakness compared to the recent past.)

but for all my posting, the main practical advice i seek to offer is how OP can spend less time thinking about politics. it is not productive. if you disagree with my theories on the whole, you only affirm my point that it was a waste of time to come up with them and i may as well have been playing animal crossing and making happy little houses for the animals.

The weed poster is using the same anthropomorphic metaphorisms for God. Claiming God to be personal but beyond human comprehension.

Just recycled Abrahamic nonsense as usual

>>806735
anon I am very sad you did not quote or respond directly to anything said in this post: >>806723 and instead lumped it together with other posts I did not make like >>806734

The feeling of awe you get from entering a house of worship isn't supernatural or some kind of accident, it's a deliberate feat of architectural and interior design. Basically psychological manipulation. They had thousands of years to perfect it. Same with the music. It's all made to invoke certain feelings that we call "religion".

If you have to describe God with recursive metaphorism, then He/She/It doesn’t exist.

>>806723
Fucking this thank you
I cannot believe that there are posters on here that find curiosity and profundity in science rather than mysticism

It’s so sad that divination is plaguing even the agnostic and secular folk.

Everything is always about “energy” and “oneness” or whatever.

Yet these same people have no in learning about nature.

like chill out cows lmao
