She might have named it that because she thought it was a fancy slur

I’d assume it’s riffing on this

Me while Gestapo are escorting me to Auschwitz-Birkenau: “Those damn commies are up to something! Better keep an eye on them officer, Sir.”

I thought Jeff Bezos was our President? Did we vote him out?

Look, if Kamala was in charge this wouldn’t be happening, because you wouldn’t see it in the media so you wouldn’t care, and that’s what we mean by going to the left. Also some of the guards in our camps will be queer!

The hammer and sickle is the sign of the communist movement. I assume you mean to insinuate that the USSR was somehow fascist, but I must be misunderstanding you, nobody would be that ridiculously wrong on the internet. The USSR saved the world from fascism despite the best efforts from the capitalists in the west.

It must rule being a liberal. Just being able to say whatever, talk out your ass like you’re an expert on a subject you don’t even understand, be completely submerged in the capitalist cultural ooze and somehow think people who disagree with you don’t know shit.
I long for a world where I can be as blissfully ignorant as a communist as you can be currently as a liberal.

Liberal democracies use actual slave labour, not to mention the colonial horrors still being carried out - and I’m not going to waste my time trying to explain imperialism to you, because I know there’s a whole other thing we’d have to educate you on first.
The USSR had a lower recidivism rate, lower death rate and higher QoL for inmates in the gulag system from 1952 onwards than the US has in its current system to this day.
We are infinitely more surveilled than any communist scare-story. You only don’t notice political repression because you stay within what is acceptable. We coup, cheat elections, kidnap and kill to our hearts desire in the west - and not just brown people! We have black sites where police can take you, we have bullshit charges and violent cops.

But despite liberal democracy creating a violent all-surveilleing repressive police state dedicated to extracting wealth from the poor and giving it to the rich, it is somehow communism that is fascism. I assume this is because of “authoritarianism”? The idea that a state exerting power is bad in and of itself, no matter on behalf of whom and to what end said power is used, is fucking ridiculous. Cooked up by Hannah Arendt - an actual antisemite - in order to make Hitler an equal to Stalin. The concept is meaningless, any definition is either so broad as to encompass all states or so narrow as to just mean “enemy of the US”

I can’t believe I’m doing this unironically, but your argument is mainly just an ad hominem. You’re not arguing against what is being said, but who is saying it.

Lmao

If it’s the thread I posted the only message that is fake, as far as I’m aware, is the one posted in the comments about “girls ftw”.

And posting messages from Elon begging to go to Epstein island seems like a pretty normal thing to post to hexbear. There’s a massive pedophile ring with the involvement of the western political and academic elite. Documents detailing what actually goes on behind the closed doors of capitalist are being revealed, and they show that these people are sick fucks, parts of modern culture we thought were organic or separated from larger efforts were instead centrally organised AND Elon Musk is a huge loser. This is somehow NOT something to focus on? What am I not understanding?

THANK you

YES OF COURSE HES RED AND ON FIRE AND HAS A POINTY TAIL WE HAVE TO MOVE PAST THE BANALITY OF EVIL

I relate to that too, I think. Both in that people fixate on the one red guy instead of the whole hell-thing (yeah Trump bad, can we talk about the global billionaire pedophile ring seemingly running modern society?) and people going all in on the aesthetics being the issue like with the satanic panic of yesteryear. I don’t know if that’s what you mean, but I do at least feel apprehensive when people overly focus on either one individual or the occult aspect of this kind of stuff.
On the other hand I don’t think it should be discounted either. They discuss killing children in those files. That is occult shit. It’s necessary to talk about how said global pedophile ring is seemingly obsessed with weird shit like that. It’s an aspect of some larger monster or something. I don’t know, the whole thing feels eldritch, impossible to properly talk about or analyse.

Or I don’t know if it’s necessary or impossible, but I feel a need that we acknowledge that on top of them being capitalist fascist sexual freaks, they’re also being occult weirdos about it and that’s a bit spooky or icky or something.

my bad

Thank you, it’s okay. I’m prickly at the moment as well, and I’m sorry about that.

No it’s different because he’s a comedian modern day philosopher

That’s not how Occam’s razor works. I’m not asking you to get into a back and forth about his state of being. I was asking you why you considered it so “out there” to be having a discussion on if he might be alive, considering all the stuff we do know about the day he “killed himself” and the general consensus that whatever happened, it wasn’t suicide.

As to your edit I haven’t mentioned proof as far as I can see?
You’re being too vague for me with regards to the “baking”. I’ve only seen people post/discuss extended correspondence or singular correspondence in the case of Norman Finkelstein.
I’m the only one who has done any “baking” that approaches what I think you’re talking about, by sharing an article of Bjorn Lomborg denying further relations to Epstein. Considering who Lomborg is connected to, his material interestes and the general pattern of academics of his type and class meeting up with Epstein “just one time” for “a simple dinner” due to his “philantropic work” I felt like it was a pretty rational thing to find suspicious and worth of sharing.

Materially nothing changes when we die either, but I still care

edit: Caring about wether he’s dead or not is different from finding the speculation itself deranged though. Why do you find it so unreasonable to think he’s alive?

Elon Musk if he had been slightly less wealthy at birth so he’s slightly better socialised

I don’t really know why the aesthetics hit like they do. I think it might be something about how direct it is? Or maybe obvious is a better word. It’s as if every rich person is Richard III or Iago and we’re the audience to whom they’re looking out, explaining how evil they are.

I think the best way I can describe it is like this:

Imagine you find out Hell and Satan is real. Not only is it real, but it is exactly like it’s drawn in shitty newspaper comics. Satan is a red guy with horns and a tail with an arrow bit. Hell is a gate and flames.
Not only that, but you get the distinct feeling that Satan picked this look because of the comics. Or maybe the comics were influenced by him to look like him? Or maybe they just hit the nail on the head when they guessed what the whole thing looked like? You oscillate between all the answers and, as you do so, you find out that this whole “The devil is actually real and he’s actually a red guy who lives surrounded by flames” thing is something people just know about and are cool about. Nobody gives a shit! And if you start talking about it people will look at you as if you’re crazy for saying “but he is a red guy! There’s actual pictures of him and interviews with him where he talks about being a red guy! There’s a wikipedia article dedicated to how red he is!” and people will say “yeah, you know, that’s the bible for you. Eternal damnation and so on. Who really knows how much of that stuff is real though?” or they’ll say “What you really believe he’s a red guy?” even though there’s pictures and everything!

And you’re just stood there with the knowledge and the knowledge that everyone else also has the knowledge and half the people act like it’s nothing and the other half act like you’re crazy for believing the knowledge.

If it was just a smoke-filled room then it would feel different. It’s the whole Aleister Crowley vibe to it. AND it also gets to me whenever some other shit happens, is THAT part of this billionaire theatre kid larp too? The owl of minerva or whatever people talk about with washington DC or Denver Airport or 9/11 air traffic control having a guy named Crowley working on the day. It’s all just a larp and it’s all just aesthetics, but how much of this world is just run for some fucking dorky ass theatre kids doing a fucked up larp?

Does this work? https://hexbear.net/pictrs/image/82d3118e-4256-4394-a350-7c283be5c4f8.webp
