To all the Sealions who decided to pipe in with their bullshit:
Substitute "justice" or "self-defense" for "vengeance" and you are closer to what this person meant.
But I suspect you all just couldn't help being the fucking pedants that you are

@anarchopunk_girl I cut my hair short recently but I know that this struggle is real
You know, I'm not really missing the account Anarkitty/Radical_EgoCom and their self-important posting of memes of other people's content they put their own "copyright" symbol on and the boosting said content 15 times a day.
Honestly, when I think about self-care, I think about murder.
There are just so many people who deserve to die, and it makes me miserable that they're alive.
@anarchopunk_girl @MnemosyneSinger It's because goth has always been a part of LGBTQIA community. And so goths were always going to be anti-fascist, and you can't really be anti-fascist without being anti-capitalist.
Not all Gen X goths are hardcore left-wingers, but I have not met any who are right wing now.
While it seems almost every gen X punk rocker I know is a fucking Trump supporter now
@MnemosyneSinger I've been on disability since 1994 for severe mental illness. And now I have really bad osteoarthritis and flat feet that make my ankle very painful to walk on for long periods at a time.
My last roommate literally told me that people who can't or won't work do not deserve to live.
A thing about him that should come as no surprise to anyone:
He is a Gen X punk rocker.
Why are all the Gen X goths hardcore leftists and anti-capitalists and anti-fascists and very understanding of mental illness and Gen X punks right-libertarian (a complete oxymoron) garbage people?
I actually know the answer to this, but I'll let y'all guess.
@Mondobizarrro @kittenlikeasmallcat
That's very cool. But in my current state of mine it also makes me suicidal because I am so broke I don't even know if I am going to be able to eat or pay rent, much less buy records
Back in the 1930s, the Government of Germany, with prodding by the National Socialists and the suspicious Reichstag fire, eliminated all the left-wing parties in Germany.
The government as a whole convinced the people that socialism and communism were a greater threat to democracy than fascism.
So when the July 1932 vote happened, the Nazis got the majority vote, and one of the main groups of people who voted for the Nazis (or who didn't actively oppose them) were the equivalent of centrist liberals today.
Now apply that to liberals in the USA today, and how history often repeats itself, and you can come to the irrefutable fact that liberals are fascist-enabling scum.
Whenever a liberal shrieks about Trump and how dangerous he and the transphobic, racist, antisemitic goons he inspired are, do not let them get away with it.
Let them know the only reason these scary and evil monsters rose to power was due to the inaction and enabling of liberals and the Democratic Party.
And if they try to deny it, just punch them in the nose as hard as you can, because fuck those guys.
@nilsskirnir holy shit. I wanna look that up but I need to get ready for my IOP therapy program.
Can you send a link?

Liberals in a nutshell:
@benda @Mondobizarrro @passenger
That generation took power and fucked everything up.
But I love Bernie Sanders. Love Roger Waters. Noam Chomsky. Loved Howard Zinn and Robert Anton Wilson.
So I HEAVILY edited my comment and added stuff to it that made it quite a bit longer, but I think you guys will be happier with the edit.
@benda @Mondobizarrro @passenger
Yeah. Generalizations suck.
When I first came to kolektiva there was a guy whose user name was - I shit you not - "fuck you."
And he just tore into me and told me I was an irredeemable piece of shit who he thought should be taken out back behind the shed and shot because . . .
I was Gen X.
He literally could not fathom that anyone good could have come from my generation. Even though on EVERY political point, we both agreed on everything. We were both AnComs. I was using a different name and account then, so if he is still here I haven't seen him.
My guess is the admins here gave him the boot.
BTW have you added guitar to those two songs yet?
But my point is that the MAJORITY of boomer voter and politicians destroyed the economy.
There's a great book about this phenomenon, literally called "Generation of Sociopaths."
Nazis and TERFs don't want to "protect" children, they want to control them and strip them of their autonomy.
I don't see why adults can't see kids as whole ass human beings.
Also, anyone but me noticed that non-abusive/authoritarian parents wind up learning from their kids rather than the other way around and changing for the better because of them?
I'm Gen X and there are two groups of people from my generation who are almost all left wing, anti-fascist, anti-capitalist, and will fight to the death for LGBTQIA rights:
Goths
And cool parents of kids.
Gen X punk rockers are fucking scum. Like, almost all of them
@passenger As far as I know most of the actual punk rockers who were in bands are NOT scum:
Rollins, Jello, Greg Graffin, Anti-Flag, CRASS, etc.
I didn't know about all that. I just remember their anti-TERF tweet.
And to be fair, The Dead Kennedys playing and touring without Jello is shitty
I'll make broad generalizations about Boomers all day every day:
The boomers inherited a rich, dynamic country and have gradually bankrupted it. They habitually cut their own taxes and borrow money without any concern for future burdens. They’ve spent virtually all our money and assets on themselves and in the process have left a financial disaster for their children.
Boomers are a generational trust-fund baby: They inherited a country they had no part in building, failed to appreciate it, and seized on all the benefits while leaving nothing behind.
This is a generation that is dominated by feelings, not by facts. The irony is that boomers criticize millennials for being snowflakes, for being too driven by feelings. But the boomers are the first big feelings generation. They’re highly motivated by feelings and not persuaded by facts.
Something that doesn’t get discussed enough is how hostile so many of these boomers are to science. It’s not hard to connect this aversion to facts to some of these disastrous social policies.
Take this whole fantasy about trickle-down economics. We know it doesn’t work. The evidence is overwhelming. The experiment is over. And yet they’re still clinging to this dogma.
Time after time, when facts collided with feelings, the boomers chose feelings.
Boomers destroyed a sense of social solidarity, a sense of commitment to fellow citizens. That ethos is gone and it’s been replaced by a cult of individualism. It’s hard to overstate how damaging this is.
Fuck every last one of these sociopaths. The world will not heal until every single Boomer, including my parents, who I love, are fucking dead.
@emurphy @tothedaring @benda @Vice @theintercept @annamerlan @robertmackey
The worst leftist movement I have witnessed firsthand is the Red Guard.
Not only are they violent (they showed up at a DSA meeting in Austin and started assaulting people because of their stance on electoral politics) and take themselves way too seriously (I ran for Mayor on a rent strike platform and after the race was over I met with two of them to organize rent strikes and they both wore huge bandanas over their faces and huge sunglasses to hide their identities and demanded I leave my phone in my car, as if the FBI actually has any interest in such an ineffectual group of CHUDs)
Like, if you're so against landlords, beat landlords up, not other leftists. But then, cowards gonna coward.
One time at a BLM protest, one of them was more open about his membership in the Red Guard and UNDM and when I brought up how Finland solved homelessness by giving homes to the homeless, this Debbie Downer says "They were only able to do that because they are colonizers."
Like, this guy couldn't even give credit where credit is due for a decent housing policy.
And that is why there can never be "leftist unity" with Authcom Marxists.
I remember the first one:
I am a musician, anarchist, lover, fighter, and am here to immanentize the eschaton through art, mutual aid, direct action, and rock and roll.I am so left wing, I make Bernie Sanders seem like Ron DeSantis. Liberals can Fuck Off.Oftentimes when I am posting memes I am on a meme-posting rampage, posting one after another in rapid succession, so I don't have time to stop and add alt-textBut if you tag me in a meme I posted and ask me to add alt-text so you can boost it, I will.
