transness as an economic symptom
men are seen as the breadwinners, value determined by money, finances, economic power
more and more men are unable to access this value, this causes gender dysphoria, and seeing that the economic power of women is stronger than men, seek to gain that economic power via transitioning. this only accounts for a small but noticable percentage of trans people, and does not imply that all trans people come from this logic, only that this logic does to some degree create trans people, and if economic opportunities were better, there would surely be less trans people. This is also why the bulk of new trans people are trans women. Women don't really need to transition to a man to access the economics that womanhood innately brings. The inability to perform the role of man, which is fundmentally an economic role, leads to men transitioning.

would you be trans if you had a good job making 120k a year? if you had the ability to support a family? I wouldn't be.

You’re exaggerating.
Nobody likes males as erotic sexual creatures but that doesn’t mean men aren’t valued.
Also, womens SMV is shaky at best, so trans women have even less stable SMV.
There’s a lot of trans women that don’t pass. They’re constantly rejected for dates:

Also, there’s places that do conscription for women as well, not just men.
Also, women are not valued as people either. They’re expected to be pretty and docile and are demanded to pay their way just like men are.

You’re only looking at social value from purely the sexual prospect angle.

Men and women both aren’t valued as people.

Yes, mens lives are worse in the sense that they’re expected to be meatshields
But women also have it worse in that they’re seen as sentient sex dolls.

>I couldn't even start earning $400/hour out of nowhere. Any woman can, it's basically zero effort.


Not true. If you hung out with whores, they will tell you that four hundred dollars an hour doesn’t mean it’s constant. It usually means that you’re lucky enough to get one client within a fortnight period that has four hundred dollars to spend in an hour.

>Take a party yacht: men who end up there either had to have generational wealth or build their own business, taking risks and luck in the process. Women on that same yacht are just typical girls from poor families in Ukraine or some place like that who didn't have to do a goddamn thing to end up there, nor have any generational wealth. Very different requirements for men and women to end up in the same boat, literal or proverbial


Again, not always true. Women often come from generational wealth as well. And some women do actually earn their own money or had to get connections to get on that yacht.
Also, you’re familiar with straight guys having DL male lovers?

It’s more common than you think. In fact I would say there’s more men fudge packing other men on the yacht than there are women getting bred in the yacht especially nowadays

>>9548
>Nobody likes males as erotic sexual creatures
That's an unusual admission! A man would usually cope around this fact, and a woman would gaslight. You must be transsexual.

> but that doesn’t mean men aren’t valued.

Does.

>There’s a lot of trans women that don’t pass. They’re constantly rejected for dates.

If you're rejected while presenting as a woman, you'd basically stand no chance as a man. At a given looks level, a woman can be worth infinitely more than a man, and a trans woman is still worth more than a man.

>Also, there’s places that do conscription for women as well, not just men.

Oh you mean the sum total of a few ultrashitholes and one genocidal regime, where in all cases it's still lighter for women than for men?

>Also, women are not valued as people either. They’re expected to be pretty and docile and are demanded to pay their way just like men are.

>Those women charge a lot because everyone doesn’t have seven hundred to spend off in one go. They’re looking for the minority of rich men.
So, just like regular women.

> That’s because men are more guilt tripped into chivalry. And men don’t hold women to the same accountability

> Maybe because of the assumption that uglier women will be less haughty and there will be less sympathy for the ugly girl if she raises a fuss
So you don't even disagree but try to rationalize. You are more accepting of reality than most.

>You know that women still get paid less than men in more demanding forelegs of work where it’s a male majority, like trades?

Maybe because they commit to work less. They don't worry about money as much, they often work just to have something to do - this is literally what I've been told by women irl.
Same reason women are resposible for much less violent crime - why rob someone when you have an ATM between your legs.

> Non-passing trans women aren’t sexually/romantically appreciated. A cishet prettyboy will be given more value than a transgender woman

So you read "at a given looks level" and proceeded to compare different looks level. Yup.

Hay una psyop masiva para generar odio contra argentina y justificar una posible intervención o lento takeover del país y sus recursos.

Por medio del mundial estan pintando al pais como una potencia sionista corrupta y despreciable. Estan habiendo demasiadas decisiones y doble vara arbitral que es dificil que sean todas coincidencia. Hay alguien interesado en generar toda esta dinamica, quiza para devolverle un favor a alguien y de paso indirectamente arrastrar polemica pero mejor no digo más. Despues del partido contra Egipto cualquier tipo de simpatia entre el pueblo que pudiera tener argentina en medio oriente y muchas partes del mundo directamente se evaporó.
Y por otro lado, llevan años queriendo pintar al pais como un pais racista, colonialista y hasta settler-imperialista por no tener negros en su seleccion o por sesgos historicos terribles que los anglosajones liberales y progres se tragan como bobos. Para muchos en su imaginario ya argenitina no es menos que el manifest destiny americano y por supuesto un estado ilegitimo.

You can oppose both the president and Messi without going into psychosis and pretending they’re somehow more complicit in the genocide than the EU and US, which is just absurd on it’s face

Can we all agree that the Falklands is just a distraction used by the government to distract the people from more pertinent issues, much like how Trump talks about Greenland and Iran to dupe Americans from focusing over their own crisis?

Like, just let it got. It’s not like owning the Falklands will solve Argentina’s inflation crisis. Also, let’s be honest here: The whole dispute is just a chauvinistic pissing contest between the British and the Argentines, and you’re dumb for taking a side. It’s like pretending that Essequibo issue is somehow relevant to anti-imperialism, when it’s just Venezuelan imperialism over Guyana for oil because, let’s be honest here, Venezuela wouldn’t even demand more than 60% of Guyanese territory if it wasn’t for its oil.

Inb4 “muh indigenous”:

  1. Most Guyanese are the descendants of Indian and African slaves and indentured servants, hardly a bourgeois class

  2. The Venezuelans population are as much of a transplant as the average Guyanese


Same can be said wrt Argentines and Falklands settlers who have inhabited the islands for generations and have voted in a referendum to not be under Argentine rule.

Also, I’m sick and tired of Argentines playing the victim over FIFA 26 as if they are some little saints, when much of the ill will was gained by their nasty football fans, ranging from making monkey chants and making racist remarks against their to African and black players both IRL and on X’itter, to violently assaulting other fans (or in the Argentine’s case, in the pitch. Have you seen how they behaved after the Spanish victory?!). Not going to hold as their inherent trait as most football fans are assholes (English and Latino ones come to mind), but pretending it’s some CIA psyop (when Argentina is being promoted by the USA) is just pure idpol brainrot.

Maybe that’s why some leftists oppose nationalism altogether. It’s just pure cancer honestly.

Wasn't writing preceded by the state need for transaction record?
The Inca indicate it's possible without it, using mnemonic technique.
The Maya, and Aztec indicate that there's no real relation to animals.
All this validates your point that there's no causation between these things.

There seems to have been great heterogeneity before the state.
But that the children are born good, we need only hold this constant.
Our felling of the forest of this goodness is what distinguishes us.

this isn't even about contributors submitting LLM generated code, it's about setting a precedent where LLM code review becomes standard and now anytime someone submits code, whether they choose to use an LLM or not, the feedback they get on their code will be from an LLM. human nerds with poor social skills reviewing one another's code is a tricky enough situation, with heated arguments about what is and isn't good code and people who aren't good at giving or receiving criticism and people who are just straight up insane; imagine what it will be like when contributors get their code rejected or criticized by people purely on the grounds that they ran it through sashiko and sashiko didn't like it, when contributors spend hours and hours writing original code and submit it and it immediately gets rewritten beyond all recognition per sashiko's recommendation, the arguments over whether or not sashiko is hallucinating or not or whether the person reviewing it with sashiko actually read the code or not or whether the goal is to develop the linux kernel or to please the google robot overlord. of course linus torvalds can't see the problem with this, him himself being a socially inept obnoxious dweeb who has no idea how to communicate with other human beings.

Figured I made a thread to share our romantic experiences – or lack of thereof, – opinions, wishes and advice. That is part of the whole LGBT experience besides the sex and gender.

I reached mid 20s with barely any experience, autism made sure of that. Kissed a drunk lesbian once, I don't even think I looked that cute for a guy in his 20s, so I was honored more than anything. Broke up a friendship with a trans girl after some hasty choices, but she was crazy anyways. Now focusing on friends, making and deepening them.

Wish I had a man I understood and was understood by, someone light-hearted and whimsical to have fun with on the short time I have here on Earth. Femboy-ish ig, not masculine, but takes care of himself, with a touch of femininity to him. Impartial on sex, willing to do it, might be fun even.

One thing I like is the idea of relations as temporary, serial monogamy if you will. I'm all for loyalty while in a relation, but that doesn't necessarily mean it must be forever and ever. People change, why shouldn't their relations? Admittedly I do see the romance in a lifelong relation, sticking with someone and changing together with them. Besides looking for a new partner every x amount of years sounds exhausting.

Women are more discriminatory about looks than men are. Have you seen romantic media made or preferred by women? The male candidates are always hunks. The average looking guys are dismissed as shallow horndogs.
Also, women want men to be their butlers and secondary fathers.
Just like how men want women to be secondary mothers

I think it’s more because young men aren’t romantically valued as much. Or that cishet age gap relationships with the male being the junior isn’t given as much glamorization when it’s the female being the junior.

“Wanting is not the same as having” as an old proverb says. The truth is, people only want romance due to the thrill of the hunt.

> "it's the woman who wants the relationship but it's the man who just wants the sex, "
this is a cope by sub8 male to claim that women want *something* from them.
in reality wanting a relationship implies wanting sex, so sex is actually easier to get than a relationship. I (male) have similarly had an ONS hoping it would grow to be something more, but nope, I almost felt used given said sex had to be preceded by an absurd amount of time talking to her.

By 20 I got desparate enough to try sex with guys. Found a guy who was kinda feminine and good looking, I'd say that was the best sex I've had.
I'm very kinky and actually seek kink much more than sex, and unfortunately I couldn't find a guy who'd share my interests.
At 22 I was able to get laid with a girl for the first time. That's when I learnt to my surprise that girls are also sexual and kinky, that girl was probably kinkier than me, horny af, not only were she willing to try any kink I brought up but got me to try hers. It felt just so good - I mean not just experiencing sex, but like, doing so properly, with a real girl, like one expects to, for the first time ever I felt normal and valid.
That was a few months of sexting and one sexual encounter, which I'm sure she enjoyed too - but shortly after a better option appeared on the horizon and I was dumped.
About a year later I almost got laid with a lesbian-looking milf but she ghosted me, then showed up again and I ghosted her for some unknown reason.
Another year later I got laid with another milf, good looking but kinda too old for my taste, she was almost 50. We hooked up for a few years until I had to leave the country, and for those few years I could say I had a sex life even, lol.
Since then I only met up with a twink who blew me, that's it, with women I can't get so much as a date, comptetition is just too high and my looks deteriorate. I'm sad and lonely, sometimes I remember and realize just how lonely I am and get horrified at my life and how it passes by.
Ironically that one ONS girl was perhaps the only one that didn't feel like an NPC and I desired her by my side more than just for sex, she had a personality. The others idk, just normies, I mean they aren't bad people but I never really felt a connection.

>>9578
You’re a prison-gay?
You’re unwilling to have sex with masculine-looking guys?

>>9596
Yep. Actually I think a huge portion of, if not most "gays" are like that. When I made a crossdresser profile on grindr I got like x20+ the messages, some even offered money, and some guys with much better looks texted me. And that was with me only remotely resembling a woman, nowhere close to passable.

> You’re unwilling to have sex with masculine-looking guys?

I haven't fallen that low yet. Actually I'd prefer no sex with guys at all, if I had girls available.

David Bowie from what I heard was a massive man-diva.
Maybe it was due to his love for theater, I heard he would have differing alter egos and would sometimes get too much into character.

He wrote “Teenage Wildlife” as a diss towards Gary Numan

Why does it seem like so many leftists support Michael Jackson to the point where they make defending him from all his abuse allegations a political issue?

I've seen this a lot recently, with the new MJ biopic out as well as all the new allegations of abuse from the Cascio family and also a new Leaving Neverland documentary. In spite of the left staunchly holding on to #metoo and the fact abuse survivors/victims need to be believed and supported, the same isn't true with the multiple people who have accused MJ of CSA and grooming. The Epstein case has made discussions of pedophilia, CSA, and power imbalances in relationships mainstream. People are even going so far as to debate whether or not the Age of Consent should be raised to 21 in order to shield 18-year olds from predatory 30-year olds. Yet, if you bring up the fact MJ engaged in such things, you're denounced as a right-winger or reactionary (or even a racist).

Perhaps the most bizarre claims I've heard is that MJ was pro-Palestine and (allegedly) wrote a song about Palestine, Israel knew this so Mossad planted the CSA allegations against him in order to ruin him before the song could be recorded. There's no evidence of this, and MJ actually travelled to Israel and met with the IOF about a month after the Chandlers made the allegations known. I've also heard the conspiracy that MJ was protecting kids from the "real predators" in Hollywood and was saving kids from being trafficked to Epstein Island. That claim is easily debunked once you realize Epstein didn't buy his infamous island until 1998, and MJ was already taking in kids long before that.

And let's be honest: even if MJ did nothing criminal with the boys he surrounded himself with, his behaviours with them was still NOT appropriate. A grown man in his 30s and 40s should never, ever be having sleepovers with 8,9, and 10-year olds, much less sharing a bed with them. Plus, all of the stories his accusers tell fit perfectly with the model of grooming: MJ would dazzle the parents of these kids and buy them lots of expensive items, the parents would let their guards down and allow him to do what he pleased with their children, then MJ would have almost romantic-like relations with these kids. In no possible world would that ever be acceptable for a grown man to do.

So what gives? Why do so many comrades still defend MJ so viciously?

I swear you fags just make shit up as an excuse to be angry at leftists

He was an awful human being made worse by everything that ever happened to him that he then inflicted on others, it’s a cliché story in pretty much every social class. He just also happened to be a musical genius on the level of the Beatles (multiple time Paul collaborator) and give us On The Wall, Thriller, and Bad. These things aren’t mutually exclusive.

The best bet would be a mass migration of queer people to california. Were talking millions. This would allow you to influence its politics as a very large segment of the population and be able to defend yourself as a part of its armed forces if the civil chimpout starts. Plus california cannot be surrounded and isolated because its got mexico and a naval route to china from which stuff can come in and the stronghold being the coast allows its forces to have a safe rear that is very defensible.

The lore in Evangelion doesn’t matter. It’s just a character study with sci-fi window dressing that’s paying self-aware homage to cynical 80s mecha.

It’s like trying to piece together the Twin Peaks lore, you’re missing the point by being a pedant over shit the filmmakers consciously viewed as window dressing. Evangelion is mecha for depressed kids and arthouse weirdos, and that’s fine. That’s what made it unique.

<Nearly all self-proclaimed Marxists are frauds who haven’t even read Marx, let alone understand him. They use the label Marxism, despite knowing nothing about it, as a pseudo-intellectual obfuscation for their liberal ideology.

To begin, what is Marxism?
>Marxism is not a theory of equality. It is not a diagnosis of injustice, nor is it a specific prescription of how to remedy society’s ills. Marxism is a method for acquiring knowledge about the laws governing the historical development of societies. Marxism thus regards itself as a type of science. Most people think of science as something purely descriptive.
<But the reason Marx’s contemporaries called him Prometheus is because he bequeathed a science that did not just describe reality, but participated in its development. This makes Marxism totally contrary to modern science.
>Modern science places knowledge above its object. To know, means to strip something naked to consciousness and turn it into a utility for the knowing subject. He who knows an object, can control, master, and alter an object. But the ‘object’ known by Marxism is none other than human society itself. And the paradox lies in the obvious fact that society is not just an object, but also a subject. Marxists (subjects) are themselves part of the very object they make knowable.
<To complicate matters further, Marx does not claim knowledge of society alone can transform society. Instead, he proves that society is already coming to know and transform itself materially in the form of the then growing proletarian class. Most people think Marx is ‘Promethean’ because he wanted his ideas popularized. But the REAL reason was because he had the courage of declaring the return of knowledge back to being itself, and human beings in particular. He created a science that ceased to be above its object.
>For Marx, the knowledge of historical laws arrived at by consciousness, was being reflected in history itself. Knowledge of humanity does not dominate humanity, but reveals that it was there, and part of it all along. “Communism is the riddle of history solved.”

Why the need for class consciousness?

“Western Marxism,” yesterday and today

https://www.newintermag.com/against-losurdo/

>In recent years, the writings of the late Italian Marxist-Leninist Domenico Losurdo have exerted increasing influence over sections of the Anglophone left. So far ten of his books and more than a dozen articles he wrote have been translated into English, along with a number of interviews. During his lifetime he was praised as an “almost unbelievably well-read” historian of ideas,[1] celebrated as “one of the great contemporary authorities on Hegel.”[2] Posthumously, Losurdo was eulogized as a boundlessly erudite militant and scholar.[3] Today he is held up by the organizers of the Critical Theory Workshop and the owners of the Red Sails website as one of their leading lights. A couple of his texts have been the subject of intense controversy, however. When Stalin: History and Critique of a Black Legend first appeared in Italian in 2008, it generated a storm of outrage. Losurdo’s final written work, Western Marxism: How it was Born, How it Died, and How it can be Reborn, has similarly stirred scandal among commentators. Even before the English edition appeared in September 2024 under the auspices of Monthly Review Press, this polemic garnered a highly critical review in the pages of a major leftwing journal.[4]


>Many of Losurdo’s most outspoken promoters in the English-speaking world have suggested that there is a conspiracy to suppress the translation of his more controversial works. Whether or not this is the case is difficult to ascertain. They are right to point out, in any case, that it is mistaken to treat his books on Stalin or on Western Marxism as if they were somehow aberrant within his broader corpus. No doubt writers produce works of uneven quality; some texts will always be more worthwhile than others. But the comparative approach he adopted with respect to these topics is identical to the one he employed in his inquiries into liberalism, class struggle, nonviolence, Bonapartism contra democracy, and revisionist history, as well as his studies of philosophers like Hegel, Nietzsche, and Heidegger. Losurdo even recycled a number of arguments he made in these works for his reconsideration of Stalin and diatribe against Marxists in the West. It is therefore futile to di

>The following essay will take Losurdo’s book on Western Marxism as its point of departure, but will refer to many of his other works along the way. For ease of readability, it will be divided into three parts. Part one will interrogate how “Western Marxism” was historically articulated, especially how it was taken up by journals influential on the New Left. It will be seen that the notion was evaluated differently depending on how these journals oriented themselves toward “actually-existing socialism,” toward the question of defeat, and toward the prospect of revolutionary politics in the present. Here the methodology utilized by Losurdo will also be examined. Next, a second part will make reference to the various Marxists he disparaged, to see whether his characterization of them withstands scrutiny. Some of his careless, and at times even unscrupulous, scholarship will be demonstrated in this section. Finally, a third part will challenge Losurdo’s antirevisionist credentials.[5] Revisionism is a topic he wrote about at length, mostly when it came to the history of war and revolution, but Losurdo himself revised the teachings of Marx, Engels, and Lenin in two major respects: first by denying the need for coordinated international proletarian revolution, and then by denying that the state would ultimately dissolve in a classless society.

Give me a serious analysis of this text.

To me, it is a genius and overlooked text of Marx's.
In the first part, Marx criticises political secularism as often being a motive for an intensified civic theocracy, as in the case of the US. This relates to Marx's reply to Bauer in general; that secularism is not enough, since the content of religion can transform itself in new ways. Such is the case of Judaism and Christianity; the Christian imagines that they have extinguished Judaism, but really, they are "inwardly circumcised" Jews, in the Paulian sense. The absence of the external Jew does not negate the internal Jew, and so on. Further, what is the spectre of Jewishness? To Marx and Bauer, the Jew represents capitalism in the realm of civil society, while the Christian sublimes this relation in the state. The Christian state thus preserves an inner Judaism, or as Marx says, the Christian has become a Jew himself (e.g. a capitalist), but in a more severe form, because he spiritualises it. The honest Jew is better than the dishonest Jew; that's what I interpret.

Im marxist-leninist but Im with Bauer when he said that everyone needs to renounce the religion they belong to, including jews. I mean Marx kind of did that, he never identified himself by his jewish ancestry. Communists are international class-conscious beings. Not some ethnically identifying followers of religion.

>>26193
But Marx's point is that mere renouncement is not enough. The US is a "secular" country, but still very religious. Bauer thinks that Liberalism can end antisemitism by abolishing Judaism, but Marx's point is that only Communism can do that. The two split on the topic of Marx's politics, like so many other Young Hegelians.

>>26193
Yes but it's idealist to think the masses will renounce religion, specially those who live in dire conditions due to capitalksm. Like this anon said >>26197 , economic emancipation will bring true liberty to everyone, and people won't need religion to cope anymore.

>these things are by design not meant to reproduce info

this is literally exactly what they were designed for and it's the only thing they are really capable of, statistically generating text through a combination of an extremely crude and inefficient neural network architecture and an enormous hoard of looted intellectual property. you just said so yourself that they have a quite remarkable ability to reproduce text from their extremely compressed training data with the 96% figure for the harry potter series, and i've read about various studies where researchers reproduced other copyrighted materials with similar success rates, and i see this as an opportunity to address a very real problem.

if you remember, back in 2011 an MIT student named aaron swartz, as an act of protest against paywalls and the enclosure of public knowledge by private corporations, used the MIT computer network to download a bunch of formerly public scientific papers from JSTOR, a nominally public and non-profit digital library that charges exorbitant premiums for access to its data hoard, and he was indicted by the federal government for 13 separate felonies punishable by 50 years imprisonment plus $1 million in fines, and then he killed himself.

the whole purpose of this case was to make an example of aaron swartz and set a very important legal precedent - human knowledge does not belong to the public, it is intellectual property that belongs to the private oligarchs that assume ownership over it. ever since that precedent was set, the paywalling of the internet became the new normal with academic papers and news journalism and market statistics and educational materials and virtually every other kind of important information locked behind paywalls, closed off from the public. even individuals who pay for the most premium subscription package have strict access limits and only certain highly wealthy and influential organizations like universities and corporate-funded thinktanks are granted unrestricted (and highly monitored) access. and of course, after what happened to aaron swartz, nobody in their right mind who works in these institutions would dare to abuse this privilege and start mass downloading files for fear of the dire consequences.

when it comes to creative content, like works of fiction, obviously LLMs arPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

>>33851

sorry i rewrote to add an addendum.

swartz had to use MITs LAN to have unrestricted access to JSTOR, tor wouldn't have helped him there. he could have used tor for distributing the files after downloading them, but he never got that far, he was caught and arrested and charged just for the downloading.


>>33854

people shouldn't use these kinds of platforms anyway tbh, github or codeberg or whatever. it's not that hard to set up a private git server or run syncthing or send a tarballs to each other or whatever, any of these collaboration methods are infinitely easier than writing software is.

the only reason i can see for people using these popular services is trolling for contributors, which is shitty behavior. i don't care how common and normalized it is now with pre-alpha software releases and steam early access and startup culture etc, it's shitty to expect random people to come work for you for free or invest in your undeveloped idea, it's shitty to think of yourself as the "ideas guy" and expect other people to do the actual work and assume the risk of wasting their time/resources on your idea so that you can reap all of the rewards.

if people want to work with other people on a project they should learn how to develop their social skills and make some fucking friends. have friends that you can trust and talk about your ideas with and directly collaborate with and then you won't need github or codeberg or any of these other parasocial code review/social networking platforms.

I certainly think it’s fair to criticize it in art. It’s hard to remove it from the politics of the outside world. Nothing exists in a vacuum after all.

Was tricked to sign a letter of resignation from my job at the russian post office. Despite the fact that I was on probation and my employment contract was fixed-term (although informally after its termination they almost always offer a full-time position) my…I don't know - supervisor? the main bitch of the workplace? didn't like me because of a couple of fuckups like a cash shortage, which I was really guilty of and paid for out of my own pocket (the statement of financial responsibility was signed by me on the first day of employment), and she decided to lie that the employee I was replacing was about to go to work.
Which was an easily verifiable lie that I realized literally as I closed the door behind me. Ah, yes, since I quit "at my own request", I have to work for three days, so called "otrabotka" (two weeks if you were taken without probation), which I will not do (devilish?), because after signing my resignation letter I am no longer an employee and can not be forced to work.
Also new thing I learned opening the labor code for the first time.
-there is no concept of working after dismissal, but there is a concept of notification before dismissal, so it should be 3 days or 2 weeks before the fact.

Thanks for reading my stupid rant.

It's hilarious that Sopranos and hardcore GoT fans have the exact same fandom arc. both used to brag nonstop about how gritty, realistic, and "true to life" their shows were. Then historians clowned of GoT's fake "medieval realism," and actual mobsters started publicly saying The Sopranos wasn't all that authentic either.
Now they've both done the exact same backpedal: "It was never about realism. It's about the character dynamics."

So I do this largely forum-based RP and one of the big things there is 'faction' RP, where there's a big emphasis put on geopolitical stuff. Since like 2019 I was doing RP partly as an exercise in social fiction. I also run a character who left the Jedi Order because it was full of idealist pussies and liberals. He has since become Mand'alor and rides a boomer-ass Basilisk droid into battle, it's kino shit.

The Solidarity started as a coalition of Outer Rim spacers, droids, and AGIs who rose out of a massive slave revolt during the Hutts’ collapse. By ~300 ABY, they’ve grown into a hyperstate of around 100,000 planets, running on a centrally planned economy and labor-credit system. Their alliance with the Republic is pragmatic: both need each other against the Sith, but the Republic also keeps ties with the Hutts, who are quietly reviving slavery as debt peonage.

Militarily, the Solidarity fields smaller but far higher-quality forces than their rivals, avoiding clone or droid armies out of principle; they uphold a “joint dictatorship of the organic and synthetic proletariats.” They’ve just finished a war that quadrupled their territory and can’t sustain more fighting, so their focus is political: undermining and delegitimizing the Hutts while preparing their own Force traditions alongside the Jedi.

Also, I reject the idea that Luthen was a hero. He killed a comrade in cold blood. It wasn't even as if the comrade had done anything wrong, Luthen just made a calculation that he might get caught and be forced to leak what had happened and then decided to play god.

Luthen then has the gall to give a speech about how he's made all these sacrifices. But that's the thing, He made the choice to do that and that served his own personal narrative of heroic sacrifice, but he took away that choice from others.

It's weird and disheartening to see people defend Luthen's actions. If he had survived he would be at the very least court martialled by the revolutionary forces and disgraced.

For the best. Star wars is unfortunately a bourgeois dystopia on the level of the cyberpunk genre. As well as having an idealist, un-dialectical worldview, if we take Lucas "latest view" on it.

Plus, it not like the actual writers heading the star wars franchise, don't do the same thing for the content they produce. But the setting is conceptually intoxicating.

Doesn't this scan of "Brut y Brenhinedd" (1500) remind you of Chris Chan's comics and felt pen drawings? Art has a universal mediocrity, it seems. In looking at much more impressive manuscripts of the time, such as the Coverdale Bible (1535), there seems to be an importance of pictures in books during the 16th century, since each book in this Bible has pictures in it - with the front page also inspiring the later 1611 Authorised Edition (KJV), which in the introductory pages has brilliant illustrations displaying the genaeologies of the characters. Pictures in books are universally associated with juvenility today, but it was common in 16th century Britain.

That's free market for you. So much choice! Now even monitors have AIDS in them.

Graphene OS is not degoogled. Recent revelation of security researcher mike kuketz reveals the thruth:

https://www.kuketz-blog.de/grapheneos-warum-android-eine-verbindung-zu-gstatic-com-aufbaut/

The "privacy" ROM connects to Google's gstatic.com for Certificate Transparency logs. While no app data is leaked, Google captures the user’s public IP address and exact request timestamps during these background HTTPS connections.

This enables tracking via cross-correlation: If you open sandboxed apps like X or Instagram, they log your IP. Since Big Tech cooperates and shares telemetry data, Google can match the gstatic connection timestamp with your app activity IP, instantly identifying your GrapheneOS device.

OH BROTHER

The dishonesty of the GrapheneOS devs lies in their constant sophistry. Like here, where they deliberately confuse "clue" with "evidence." They are frauds.

Just because leaked docs show agencies struggling with complex exploits doesn't logically guarantee backdoors don't exist. High security is a strong indicator, but treating it as definitive proof is a fallacy.


I wouldn't trust an android device with anything important whatever rom it runs.
