    Sometimes I just wanna let rightwing ppl do their own thing. But then I remember that 'their own thing' is literally just abusing themselves and each other because that's what their great-great-grandpappy said was the right thing to do, and I'll be FUCKED if he was wrong, because he learned from JESUS

    Like, holy shit, their whole worldview is based on abusing people, and avoiding being abused. They can't think straight. They need some serious help and healing

        Hahaha I'm not sure if mass internment camps are the most effective way to go about this. I dunno though, I'm not fully up-to-date on cutting edge psychological sciences!

        Camps are probably really effective when you're in, like, wartime or something similar, and in a big rush with few resources, but I'm not sure they're the most effective. People tend to not like being forced into things in my experience, which makes them stubborn and less willing to change.

        Isn't that kinda like... mass spanking? Again, not a psychologist hahaha

          going to drug all the anti-social revisionists in transcendental music festivals tbh

          you will wear goofy new age costumes of your own choosing and share what capitalism did to you with twenty thousand of your new comrades. you will experience ego death, repeatedly, and somebody will make a Peruvian Torch joke. Is the shaman a cadre? Probably.

          ideally you will completely obliterate your bourgeois identity at the end of mindcleansing

          complete with pagan rituals, internet memes on sticks, art you made, indigenous exhibits, a river full of people on mushrooms, from subwoofers deep in the forest, this is the positive socialist negation of MKULTRA

            The real trick will be finding a way to stop me and all my friends from pretending to be reactionary so we get to just go through that reeducational experience every other year instead of working ahahaha

            That sounds fucking lit, and suddenly I’m reeducated into thinking the next reeducation camps won’t be so bad after all hahaha

              For the bourgeois, this is the 20th of August 2020.

              For me, this is the 4th of Fructidor, CCXXVIII. Today’s agricultural product is barleygrass.

              In the revolutionary calendar, there are twelve months of thirty days, and an extra five days left over, outside of the monthly calendar for an annual celebration to commemorate the revolution. Naturally we’re going to use these for Dionysian festivals!

              You don’t have to pretend to be reactionary, we actually planned a calendar that gives us an annual communal excuse to give everybody Molly!

            you will grow disenfranchised with the material world and search for the spirituality within the self and the universe.

            just as the lucy high is wearing off your comrades will suggest you now roll. as you all lie naked on the grass you feel this sudden wave of empathy and appreciation for the fundamental raw-ness and purity of the human kind as you realize how much capitalism and social darwinism have corrupted our species.

            as you vibe to the goa trance playing in the background and stare at the vast night sky you feel more and more in touch with Monad, as the hatred, intolerance and utter vapidness that once reigned in your heart have now been replaced with love, compassion and child-like curiosity for the metaphysical realm.

      i think some conservative alt-right people are just very uneducated and brainwashed by religious and capitalist pablum. But imo the majority of them know what they’re doing, and are fundamentally evil and indifferent to human suffering if it serves their self-interests and/or adds to their “i’m superior” wank material.

      Either way, we must never “let rightwing people do their own thing”, greed, hatred and sadism belong in the gulag and they always will. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paradox_of_tolerance

        :100-com:. It calls for a combination of coordinated efforts to heal their broken hearts and minds, and a strict policy of no platform in the meantime. No space for fasc thought except specifically-dedicated deprogramming (group) therapy sessions.
