This picture is so deep. Sadly, I think only a small percent of people will be able to understand it.

@ragandboneshop True, true. Itโs a parody of @ pensandpoison fyi

you know what really frustrates me here is that i (not exactly a "marxist" english professor but definitely anarcho-socialist or the like) teach antigone every year and one of my fave activities is to have students compare creon/antigone to some 1A religious liberty cases ...

Antigone is about politicsโ and about the politics of burial, ancestors, and state-administrated afterlives. Antigone is also about war crimes and the denial of eternity to certain bodies. Ideological freakiness is inherent to Antigone. Donโt fall for the hysteria sheโs pimping.

You knew there was no hope for the future of edgy and pugnacious leftbro-ism when they all opposed the โHarperโs Letterโ. There are a lot of subsequent examples, but that one was the first I can remember being like โOK these guys are uselessโ

funny pandemic stuff etc but i always found the phrase 'while i clapped for carers' really beautiful, prosodic, almost a little cryptic. could be the title of a play or poem

Amazing comments here. I thought my parody was a touch clunky and obvious, and yet.

Marxist English professors at Columbia gave me a passing grade on a paper where they basically FORCED ME to say that Antigone is about ~politics~. What a bunch of ideological freaks! Subscribe to my Substack to learn why itโs really about Western objective morality. ๐๐ปโโ๏ธ

Alina, you're troubled because I have given living proof of what it is to be a Great Man. Tell me my books aren't Great. Tell me. Oh? I thought so. And women can produce such work, no less than men. You know this too. So spare me your heresies. Just respect me as I respect you.
