Inu2u - involuntary user to user

Do you use YouTube, are you signed in, do you click agora videos that were shared?
Then you might have noticed that (hopes it is not only me) within few days, the videos you watched, - maybe you posted them, too, on agora, or even not
- have been reposted by other users - those same videos you saw already, and we're maybe even (my case) too afraid or off-topic to share...
Your case, experiences too with this, dudes? Let me and others know - research is going on!
Thanks and I am thrilled and curious!

"90s + kids are "waking up" - and it is dis<3ening"
What about it do you find disheartening? Isn't 'waking up' something heartful and positive, something to be encouraged? Or by waking up do you mean 'going woke' because I would agree - that is disheartening. Curious what you meant

both
like, the wake up and, just ignore it, live "with it" - or get overly reactive and want to "destroy patriarchy" [*]
i all for it, but they dont get, that when they destroy one and get themselves in the new one, wouldnt it be just the same?

what you say... do you mean "woke" as in "twitter blue-haired moral idiot who cant think in terms without some meme/reference"?
you know.... also, arguing about self-made problems that exist only in vacuum... (?)

This was my childhood. I was born mid-80's in a small city.
It was so much better in pretty much every way.

I fucking hate the "safety first", fear based, litigious busybody culture that has led our society down a path of un-fun, whiny weakness, and nanny state authoritarianism. A lot of this stuff changed around me as I grew up, I became especially aware of it in very late 90's and early 2000's. I remember a big point of frustration for my high school class (students of the same school year) was being the first year to experience a lot of bullshit rule changes and trying, quite unsuccessfully, to rebel against them.




Shit talking used to be an important part of how boys bonded.
I've heard some compelling arguments that a lot of these changes have been a deliberate attack on breaking down male culture and identity. At first you might have the gut reaction that this sounds conspiratorial. But then you see the literal mountains writing from feminist academics literally spelling it all out.

But also I think a lot of it was just an unanticipated consequence of the increasing incorporation of women into what were once male only spaces (which are no longer allowed). Both because most men talk differently around women, and because women did not understand the shit talking, and found it upsetting.

just rant from yesterday

LIES THEY TELL YOU vs HOW IT IS (IMHO)

  • world is yours - to sell you out for the ideology
  • world is what you (pick) want - but who sold you this idea?
  • nothing is real/you know best, nothing is (is anything/) real, everything is subjective - demoralization
  • world is shit - go figure, always been, Sherlock! - (-//-)
  • money is happiness - no, power, control is
  • you dont need x - but we control wide web of srcs. interconnected, anyways, so you cant run away
  • free market! - unless the srcs. are not - (-//-, fake/controled opposition, duopolies etc)
  • capitalism is best - suuuuuuuure yes, coz nothing other is allowed to be tried > narrative manip., hushing opposition (news, lit. (as "incorrect"; pushing narratives...)
  • (#) look up the srcs. - ha, who pays that research???
  • reaad more - good jokem we both know; i have no time, energy or head for that (kind of) edu (you took), you know, abuse that fact!
  • "justification" - only and only on wars on "dignity"
  • "there is nothing you cant do!" - false; if i didm id be in jail and you and your likes [redacted]
  • (#) "follow your dreams!" - well, only thing i can say and not to be violent is, "go back to bed!"
  • "you cant say that nowadays!" - changing meanings (as Carlin said in one of his rants...), Overton window (do and donts)

new thread from *this family* dropped!

this! the "i am so edgy and hate all humanity" threat to common good (sure, we will prolly never have Kumbaya here, (world) but dont make everything SUCH a drama!

I found this article recently (more accurately it was in my feed, as I think the publisher writes some good stuff, such as this):
https://www.palladiummag.com/2023/12/15/the-load-bearing-relationship/
It's TL;DR is that the amount of romantic relationships are going down because of the whole "set strict boundaries" thing, and to hate "entitlement" and "I never signed up for this" sort of hate for your fellow people.
I think it puts it a lot of things I've both seen discussed here, and a lot of stuff I have personally been thinking about lately into more concrete words. And it can be expanded to saying that a lot of the current problems and divides and "SJW" stuff is all a sort of result of people believing more in the "contractual relationship", and that you can't just get along with someone if you didn't already sign up for it. Essentially, people don't like each other (but not necessarily dislike) because of shared stuff (such as being family), and believe that neither party in that relationship can expect something from the other, due to it not being a relationship by choice[1]. And people loosing that bond with everyone leads to splintering and division in a society, which is what we're seeing now.

This impressive hate-fueled rant was written originally in 1992 by Jim Goad for the Answer Me! magazine. But it could pretty much be written today.

View attachment 13238

-THE UNDERGROUND IS A LIE-


You don't shock me. 1 shudder with boredom at everything you do, from tattooing your dick to chewing on your own poop. Not only have I seen all of your weak gestures before, I've seen them done better.

You remind me of someone I knew in college. His name was Mark. Pale, unshaven, and wearing his dishwater-colored hair in a Mohawk, Mark was an anarchist. He railed against the corporate elite and cheered for the collective. Projecting himself as his own mascot, he defaced hundreds of buildings with a goofy cartoon drawing of a Mohawk-wearing anarchist. The back of his leather jacket had an anarchy 'A' crudely daubed in white paint. Mark could be seen around town clustered with similarly disaffected youth, drinking out of paper bags, committing petty acts of vandalism, and plotting America's overthrow.

Unfortunately, Mark's parents were publishing magnates who had tucked away forty thousand dollars in stock for their baby anarchist. I once watched Mark transform into a sobbing bitch when he lost a bootleg cassette of his favorite hardcore band. Despite his lowlife appearance, he was a rich boy with the time and money to act poor. So were all of his friends. So are all of the people who consider themselves "alternative." Mark-you remind me of him.

Like Mark, your underground is strictly an upper-class phenom. You're a body-pierced, hair-dyeing, chain-smoking, whip-carrying FAKE, a little bitchy snitch who hasn't been hit enough. Your black eyeliner, rubber pants, and asymmetrical hairdo are a post-pubescent way of playing costume. You can't handle the guilt of your comfortable background, so you commit the heinous crime of slumming. No one worships trash in the slums, where they have to eat and breathe it daily. In poor neighborhoods, weirdness invites violence. Yet a blue-blooded nabob like you acts triflingly eccentric and considers it radical.

The "creative community" doesn't consist of the most creative people; you're the ones with the most spare time to create, those whose parents tolerate-and often finance-your flighty pursuits. What usually passes for art is just the idle noodling of the leisure class.

Your gizzard ululates with, "You sellout!" Well, the wealthy are the only ones who can afford NOT to sell out. Yes, there are a holy few who have refused cash when it's been dangled in front of them-they're called 'masochists.' If you're still reading this, you're a masochist, too. By the time I'm done with you, you'll reconsider your opposition to law enforcement.

In your typically egocentric way, you pretend you're the vanguard, freeing the oppressed from the shackles of ignorance. You conduct a sorry crusade to recast the world in your image. You're dumb enough to think you'll make a difference. You feel that if everyone was like you, society would be wonderful. Yet you walk away scratching your head when the truly oppressed don't want anything to do with you. You've never fought for anything but the right to be infantile.

If patriotism is the last refuge of scoundrels, political rhetoric is a cubbyhole for dullards. The political is merely the personal in a cheap, quivering act of sublimation. You oppose power, which is like protesting the sun-scream all you want, but it'll still scorch you. As you cry about global warming, global corporations, and global revolution, I stare into the vacant globes of your eyes. The only anarchy going on is the mutinous misfiring of your brain cells. The 'A' stands for "asshole."

You whine about your "sexuality," how your body is a political combat zone. You're a simple rodent with boring bodily functions which you seek to ennoble. With your flagrant vanity and dishonesty in personal interactions, you reveal yourself to be equally as rotten as the leaders you despise. You invariably wind up imitating the oppressor. Unfortunately, you weren't oppressed to begin with.

For not only are you a liar, you're a hypocrite. You're fascinated by violence until you're confronted with it. You romanticize trauma but have never been traumatized. You demand grant money from a government you seek to destroy. You idolize primitive cultures but would slash your wrists if your CD player broke. You condemn religion but consider yourself enlightened. You're as self-righteous as the moralists upon which you spit. You hate hatred, won't tolerate intolerance, and conspire with others against conformity.

All your cohorts are hypocrites, too. Feminists don't degrade, objectify, and stereotype men? Socialists aren't elitists? Environmentalists don't drive cars? A pox upon all your houses. I'd wish for a rat to bite your ass and give you the Black Plague, but you'd probably consider it a fashion statement.

While you slurp the dick of political correctness, your amber asshole is being torn asunder by aesthetic correctness. You flush your self-respect down the toilet while scrambling to obey the edicts of boho taste. You're frightened senseless that others will think you're uncool. You'd rather swallow whale sperm than admit you like disco, Chicken McNuggets, or Love Connection. You're frozen with fear that someone will realize what little you have to say. You squirm in the face of your own dullness. You are a prisoner of the underground, a hostage of your own creative retardation. Ideas emerge from your head stillborn.

Your rebelliousness is laid out for you like the portions of a TV dinner. You ape the powers that be with every clove-scented breath you take. You are nothing more than socioeconomic ectoplasm, a target market, a file folder at Central Casting. You exist as a parasite, because without an Establishment for you to oppose, you'd shrivel into cellular waste. Try as you may to avoid being absorbed by the mainstream, you remain trapped under its microscope, an amoeba with a nose ring.

This isn't an apologia for the mainstream, not by any stretch. Those who seek to defend it might as well believe in the Easter Bunny, too. The mainstream's models of reality are chunky and obsolete, just like yours. To attack it is too easy, like stealing crutches from a cripple. I'll leave those tactics to cowards such as you.

True psychos stand alone. The only pioneers are those who give voice to the ugliest corridors of their unconscious without fear of censure from any quarter. The acts that ordinary people commit behind closed doors are beyond the ken of any performance artist. Humans' innate weirdness is far more threatening and entertaining than anything the professional shock mavens could conjure.

I boggle your conception of a world split between cognoscenti and squares. I subvert the subversives and bury the underground under six feet of its own hypocritical manure. I perform unsolicited tattooing, body-piercing, and ritual scarification upon you.

Give vent to your sickest fantasies, but don't call it art. Cornhole Barbara Bush, but only if you want to. Sketch your astrological chart with your own feces, but only if it feels good. If you want to do something truly radical, kill yourself. We'll have one less reader, but the world will be a better place.

This is the most Gen-X thing I've read in quite a while. Reminds of an edgier David Foster Wallace - my god think how much better the world would be if we still had him. Rereading Infinite Jest a year or two ago, all I could think was "what he think of the actual modern times."

This is why I ended up calling OP a fag because that what the thread emanates from and I'm honest to God sick of it. A majority of these people likely have no desire or drive because God knows what complexity in their lives got them there but all of which stems of from fear itself and the desire to isolate as to not hurt themselves or anyone, in effect; it's a Hedgehog's Dilemma scenario in one sense and they let the world roll over them if it means a form of self-preservation, (whatever that means to them) from whatever they fear from and I say this coming from experience and as someone who has lived as a hermit for God knows how long. We all know the long-term effects of isolation can do on a person's mental health and wellbeing and it's the fact that people are choosing to go extreme degrees of such that pisses me off.
