And Cambodia, unfortunately.

Trump is in office and and the leftist shitposters are preparing for diaspora. It is 2025.

I asked this in the big thread, but how will I find the the new site if we lose this domain? How do we communicate if we can’t get into this domain? I don’t really know how the Internet works lol

This feels like a compromise that Keir Starmer personally came up with

New site tagline just dropped

Oh I totally agree, they don’t give a shit about “context”, just pointing out their little fig leaf.

But the flowchart says “keywords and context” at each of the steps. That’s what I’m referring to.

The way to make a criticism involving their age without being reactionary is to put it in context.

That can be the context of human brain development, pointing out that impulse control and decision making abilities are literally not fully formed at their age. Or the (related) context of the power dynamic between them and their much-older superiors.

It’s reactionary to attack the age directly, and therefore denigrate young people broadly. As usual, what matters is the intersection of their age and other factors.

Almost any of them could hit unrelated fields. “Female” could be referring to female plants.

The flow chart does specify that decisions are made on banned terms AND context, so I guess that’s how they’ll avoid retracting denying nearly everything.

Yeah seriously. It’s not even expensive either. I can get a soil sample tested for a whole suite of heavy metals (+other elements that plants crave) for <$60.

Plus if you’re “not sure what you’re looking for” you still can take the samples. Heavy metals are famously stable in soil; it’s not like you have to run the test immediately.

I’m in the same boat. I’ve been disappointed that prices haven’t dropped in the new year, but I guess they’ll be dropping now lol

I wonder how he would have responded to 9/11

Yup. My partner and I were able to buy a home when prices were low and we were able to save up money, but those circumstances don’t seem likely to come around for us again. If our house was destroyed, we’d be thrust right back into perpetual renting.

All that is solid melts into air

Agreed. I think that’s what I meant by the “methodology” of futurism. The idea of breaking the past isn’t the issue. It’s the means and systems used to do so that matters, and therefore the ideology of the futurists in question.

DO NOT give the big past-breaking hammer.

“Move fast and break things” leads to “Progress is our birthright”, which leads to “What undesirable people in our society are holding us back from our birthright?” (i.e. quintessential fascist thought).

The repeated failures (still ongoing) of Futurism highlight the need for a different method of conceptualizing ‘progress’.

Absolutely fascinating, thank you.

I remember learning about Italian futurists in college, but that was in the context of early experimental music (they were doin some wild shit with simple machines). I wish I knew then what I know now about their relationship to fascism; it would’ve made for an interesting discussion in that class.
