In Human Form

"Colonialism only loosens its hold when the knife is at its throat." - Frantz Fanon

Equality sounds radical in a world addicted to hierarchy.

how the fuck are you going to be in a metal or punk band and support ICE 😭😭 get out of here with that shit

I’m genuinely shocked to see libertarians speaking out as much as they are

Boot licking is at all time high.

Perfect example of internalized neoliberal extremism right here: Total abandonment of values and acceptance of corrupt authority as long as it benefits you.

Matt Walsh and these other right-wing empty men who think they're avatars of über-masculinity particularly hate Alex Pretti because he exemplified the virtues they love to extol but are too cowardly to actually embody. They cosplay as trad men by dressing up in campy plaid shirts and sitting in podcast studios with a log cabin aesthetic. Alex Pretti went to the street to fight for causes he believed in, protected and helped others in both how he protested (he was helping two women when ICE grabbed him) and in his work as an ICU nurse. He lived the values they pretend defines them, all while they lack the courage to ever do or risk anything. He's a reminder to them of what they're not: a mirror showing their own fragility. That's why they feel vicariously strong watching ICE agents shoot him in the back and killed him.

@PAHoyeck It’s not possible to understand them well at that rate

I learned today that some people doing PhDs try ro read TEN journal articles per day. How is it possible to understand and absorb that much material??

I have never ever heard of any freedom loving people have an aversion to reading and study. In fact, literacy campaigns are among the first efforts of liberated societies. Something to consider.

It’s gonna get worse. Be ready. Be vigilant. Take care of your family and neighbors.

Academic rejection is a unique kind of pain.

Solidarity to all peoples of this world who rise up to destroy hierarchical power: to dismantle the state and the rule of capital, to destroy patriarchy, white supremacy, and imperialism, and to implement direct democracy and libertarian socialism in their place.

I Want You (She’s So Heavy)

The role of intellectuals is to challenge authority, not serve it.

Outside of the low literacy rates, something else that’s severely lacking is curiosity and inquisitiveness. Ppl are way too comfortable taking content at face value with no desire to research topics further. They barely read follow up tweets!

@jadefrancomb Classical conditioning

You can literally be pressed for hours and your body would hold the urine but the minute you’re approaching a toilet, all hell will break loose. Why is that?

I can relate

The longer I work in psychiatry, the more & more I'm reminded that poverty is one of the most harmful factors (if not the most harmful factor) affecting peoples' mental health.

Finally working on a new video!
