“my politics are fiscally liberal, socially terrifying”

Latex is a left wing kink (restriction of rights)

Custard pies are right wing (impurity)

Smoking is left wing unless it’s American Spirits

Being trod in with stilettos is right wing (fem Dom)

Wearing a diaper is right wing if a man does it, left wing if a woman does it (gender infantalization)

Last night I whispered “supply side economics” into her ear and she said “you’re a fucking freak”

Mine is kinda stupid- self employed musician taking two and a half weeks off to be home for Christmas, nye, and my mom’s birthday. November was an excellent month for me, but December was slightly sub par. I’m not gonna starve when I get back, but I’m going to need to hustle like mad.

If everyone’s political beliefs were something you could see, I actually think it would create more peace. How many people go along with a more extreme take only because they are afraid to be ostracized from their community? Odds are folks would look around and see that the world is more shades of gray than what social media tries to mold us into.

I had someone tell me I was brainwashed because I have a degree in political science. I was taken aback, but then decided to ask myself if I was. I mean, what’s the difference between being educated and being brainwashed? Is it the conclusion that you come to? Is it some physically measurable thing?

Some good questions to ask is “is the information I’m getting geared to make me feel a certain way or to inform me about something?” “Am I learning in a setting where I am afraid that to have a dissenting opinion would get me kicked out of my community?” “Are certain ideas immediately ruled out as false without further discussion?”

At least in my degree, I felt that there were a plethora of opinions in my classroom discussions, and when we approached different lenses, we made sure to have a thorough understanding of them, as best we could. I can think of only one philosophy that an international relations teacher ruled off outright, and that was “ancient hatreds theory”. Even then we spent several classes taking it apart and why it is a poor tool to view conflicts.

That said, I would say I was brainwashed after college when I spent more time on Facebook, reddit, and Instagram. With the perpetual rage machine at my fingertips, I was afraid that if I disagreed I would be flamed and cancelled from groups that I loved. I am very wary of getting information from the socials since things are so over simplified and there is little to no welcomed critical discussion. It’s just a yelling pit with people further entrenched in their beliefs.

The joyful wonder and whimsey that lived in my soul and twinkle that shone through my eyes, or at least I think it was there. It’s now just a faint memory of a memory, something that I yearn for but unsure if I ever even tasted it.

Nope, the edit was shaming everyone for their dirty, dirty minds. Right to the gutter they go. It says right there where I write edit

Btw this post, and thread, is filled with silly geese

There is a 👏 time 👏 and 👏 place 👏

The current time is 1946 and the place is Nuremberg. I’m sorry that we didn’t show Goebbels where the clit was back then, WE HAD PRIORITIES.

A) thank you for completing the assignment

B) man that’s rough. That “leaving the cave” moment is something I think (hope) most everyone has sometime in their 20s. It sucks because it hurts, it’s ugly, and at the very least puts strain on our most important relationships. Sometimes it breaks the relationship and we need to find new ones but that is absolutely painful too.

I hope in your introspection you’ve seen the ways you’ve grown and recognize where the boundaries are to forgive yourself and others, and know what ties were better off cut.

I’ve been in similar situations and honestly it’s made me more empathetic and patient for anyone I see who seems to be off the path of being empathetic and patient. I hope when you run into someone who is in your footsteps that you treat them how you wish you were treated. ❤️

Obviously it was about the Milgram experiments and until you read past the title you should keep taking your Adderall 😤

Tsk tsk go back to your compound in Idaho 😤

Are the Milgram experiments a category on porn hub? I mean if it gives you a little zap who am I to judge?

Fuck off, the Holocaust absolutely happened and we need to learn why.

How does this have anything to do with the Nuremberg trials?

When incels say “female” I just assume they mean iron man

Yea I tried to create an account on another instance when I started, and never heard back. Then I went to Lemm.ee and it was quick and easy.

That said I kinda like how each one is run a bit different. It’s nice to not have a top down structure but more of a terrorist cells situation.

Nice try FBI
