        He was this guy who got extremely good grades in school, so one day, somebody called him Carl Marks and it stuck. Then he went on to write Capital, an in-depth guide on uppercase, lowercase, and all things grammatical, and anti-comma-use English professors have hated him ever since.

      • he was a contemporary with August Willich & Karl Schapper, if you have heard of them. Actualy Willich challeneged Marx to a dule for not being pro worker enough, probably why you have not heard of this Marx dude

    Being disabled is terrible. Everybody thinks less of you, don’t want to be your friend, date you and don’t think you’re worth listening or talking to. Sometimes I even get bullied.

    No matter where I go, I get less respect than others. I feel like I’m not human.

    At least I’m able to talk more about how this hurts me, and it helps a bit.

      That is the same experience that I have as a child in the family of victims of Communism who embrace the very toxic brutal authoritarian practices that supposedly victimize them. The teaching of my extended family of victim of communism in the Hong Kong Canadian community is that repression is self-inflicted, that the repressor only repress bad people, and that repression is always avoidable. This principles should be a red flag that the victims of Communism were never victims of human rights violations. In fact, my father, who is a pastor of a curropted Protestant Christian church, boost that armed gangster boogymen rule Canada and that everyone should obey thugs and delinquents to gain favor from armed gangsters. He preached that even the police will not arrest armed gangsters and that the police will knowingly arrest innocent people under the commands of armed gangsters. The local Canadian community all side with the ableist people because of the political privilege of victim of Communism.

      I think one of the things that disgusts me the most is that what you do is never enough. Not for the govt, not for any job you MIGHT get; you’re always expected to go above and beyond despite your own physical limitations in the economy we live in. But not too far.

    One of the most insane titles just dropped in Dutch news. One of the news outlets says this (translated): ‘Dubious plan of Israel: it seems that Palestinian presence in Gaza nears its end’

    Palestinian. Presence. Nears. Its. End.

    What the fuck

    Gringo pope is an hilarious outcome at this point in time, anyone knows anything about him?

    A maga pope could cause some serious fractures within the latin american catholic base.

    The ruling neolib party in Belgium, N-VA, is finally having a moment of infighting regarding Palestine. Some of em can’t look away anymore.

      Don’t worry, their consciences will be soothed by the direct deposit notification hitting their account when a political donation goes through.

    Belgian football cup final was yesterday with a notorious right wing club being one of the teams. Their hooligans went into one of the more infamous Brussels migrant areas and started beating people up.

    A left wing protest of 20 people gets tracked with drones and stuff but this could happen, because why??? Some of those who burn crosses etc

    Anyway last week was May Day and Vijay Prashad gave a nice speech at our rally. Afterwards I went to check the socdem speech and it was all ‘they are taking your pensions and your rights blah blah’ and I was like ‘who is they? You’re in the government man’

      His fans have completely lost me. It’s another Vaush cult. Nothing against you, just a lot I’ve met really, really are the epitome of “hear no evil, see no evil”

        Exactly, all I"ve really do is make “content”, and not really push anybody more left.

    Gathered all of my coworkers to discuss the making of a plan to undermine our management as our working conditions are horrendous. And we did come up with a proposal. If they won’t listen or the answer isn’t okay for us, we will take further action. And if that doesn’t work, we will deny them their authority and start working on our own agreed upon terms.

    Gotta love a good worker uprising don’t we.

    I don’t ever want to hear straight men talk about how others are insecure or whatever as they themselves constantly find themselves amazed by a dude that yells at them that ‘LIONS HUNT, YOU ARE A LION’ and then find themselves dipping their face and their nuts in an ice bath at 4 am. Real clown shit my dudes.

  • So I am walking (at a graduation ceremony) this weekend, it feels hollow though given I still have my entire masters paper to write, and that feels pointless because I am watching the entire field I am a part in get dismantled infront of my eyes.
