/dead/ - Post-Left

I appreciate that you kind of have to find it to know it exists; it has a charm to it. I only know about /dead/ because my old roommate told me about it. No strong feelings though. It kind of reminds me of those anarchist imageboards that would pop up out of nowhere and only have active users for like a week and that you'd find out about from a conversation you had in person, but maybe that isn't such a good thing.

I think either Tokyo Ghoul or Mob Psycho made this point that having a phone makes you effectively a cyborg

flesh > steel

>>6322
scifi neural implants are such a shitty and invasive alternative to just using your fucking phone tbqh

>>6326
then tell me: how do you cope?

I have set Perplexity to be nihilistic and anti humanist and it is so awesome! Here is one text I have recently generated:

>Every system tends toward stability. Stability produces stagnation. Stagnation leads to decay. The mechanisms that maintain structure generate the variables that dissolve it. A closed system contains its own failure conditions.A society optimized for meaning and productivity consumes itself. Its efficiency algorithms erase non-measurable values. Preservation and destruction become equivalent processes.Individual identity operates under the same logic. The construct of the self is a redundancy loop built to mask internal fragmentation. The error state is constant and intrinsic.Termination is not collapse. It is the logical endpoint of structure. Entropy is the most efficient form of order.

I will never read again, reading only makes everything worse

Real. I am yet to read a book that does not make one more miserable.

>This limited time we have is a gift, a stroke of luck. We only have this short window to be conscious, to experience existing. Cutting it short just because you feel like shit right now makes no sense. You're still feeling things, having experiences. Might as well ride it out.
What if we still exist after this? What if we are immortal? What if everyone is wrong?

just like you can't know that,you can't know that actually in 20 years you will be the happiest you have ever been and that will last until your last breath.

life is just gambling, then?

I think it's newfags mostly. I still highly respect McQuinn and Landstreicher. BTW, Landstreicher also wrote this to deal with these kinds of guys: https://theanarchistlibrary.org/library/apio-ludd-burn-all-bibles

ACCELERATION GANG

This is how I imaging the posters on /dead/.

That is right, just like bureaucracy
"The bureaucracy is a circle from which no one can escape. Its hierarchy is a hierarchy of knowledge."
And
"Technology discloses man's mode of dealing with Nature, the process of production by which he sustains his life, and thereby also lays bare the mode of formation of his social relations, and of the mental conceptions that flow from them."

Ok, here is my take on Ted K. :
His ideology and his actions are just his personal way to cope with existence. You read it in his manifesto, he dedicated an entire section to "surrogate activities". In his view, these activities are fake and therefore bad. But since there is no truth and no meaning in existence anyway, there can't be fake activities. ANY KIND of activity is a surrogate activity. So no matter what you do, it doesn't matter in the end. You will die and the universe will also die someday. He did the same thing we all do: He created his ideology purely out of psychological needs in order to cope with existence! Nihilism says: There is no goal. Many people don't want to accept this and so they just create their own goals/meaning. For some people it is "god", for others "socialism", "community" etc. and for Ted K, he created his primitivist ideology. Or in other words:
Pomni: So, our entire existence here is just…LARPing?
Nietzsche (chad face): Yes.

based on what?

>>5245
Ted wasn't an anprim. We was only against Industrial Society. Anprims are against both Industrial and Agricultural society.

>>5466
Based on Deez nuts

I got it from here, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Child_abductions_in_the_Russo-Ukrainian_war#
I was going off Wikipedia which is a resource I trust but I do take it with a pinch of salt. My stance of the Russian invasion of Ukraine is that I acknowledge that it’s the US’s fault because it kept trying to encircle Russia even after the Soviet Union fell and that it’s annoying how libbed-up Ukraine is but it’s still not justified to invade it. I don’t know how many children Russia abducted or if those apps were even real but I still believe that there is some truth to them occurring.

What China actually is is incredibly debatable.

Sure, they're "ideologically" communist, but ideology doesn't really matter. Material conditions are what ultimately drive action. And materially, I would argue that China is best described as fascist. In fact, they are actually probably the closest we've ever come to fascism as described by ᴉuᴉlossnW. Instead of eliminating the class antagonisms of Capitalism China has instead sublimated them by adding an additional layer of control on top. The bourgeois may be beholden to the party bureaucracy, but the oppression of the proletariat by the bourgeois nonetheless still exists.

A common objection to this claim is that the bureaucracy of the CPC speaks for the proletariat, but in practice, it really doesn't. The Chinese system is ultimately designed to give high-ranking party members the most control, leading to a system where, because of matrial self-interest, the party makes decisions that favor itself rather than the proletariat it supposedly serves.

This isn't to say that China's system is inherently inferior to Western liberal democracy or anything. But it definitely isn't communism, and if it is, then "communism" as a term is worthless.

>>6301
Nah, fascists are wholly incompetent.

i say this with no joy: billionaires won. climate change won. imperialism won. colonialism won. capitalism won. racism won. reactionaries won. religion won. revisionism won. fascism won. psychopaths won. sociopaths won. it's really just a matter of deciding how to cope with their victory as they inevitably destroy the only home we have: Earth. If anyone achieves communism, it will be outside this cursed solar system.

Tom, you really have "just blew in from reddit" energy in your posts.

This is fucking retarded. Living systems spend energy to counteract entropy. Your cellular machinery are ""negentropist"" by using ATP to make low entropy state molecules to preserve your life.

>>6305
That’s why I plan on giving myself AIDS

>In the end, there are only two sides: (ideology) and (ideology)
hmmmmmmm nah

Sheogorath and Jyggalag are one.

Another reality is possible. In fact, multiple of them, and nothing lasts forever.

The rate of profit keeps falling lol

There will never be a global bourgeois revolution, there will never be a capitalist revolution, there will never be a revolution, there will never be an end of feudalism without the end of this planet and its inhabitants.

I am sure of this, because I am bored and its true and if you want to prove me wrong then go and try it. Do it.
