A law that applies to all ethnicities except non-Muslims is for no other purpose than to further the agenda of the fascist goverment's plan of a "Hindu state", as such, the idea of such an ethnostate is extremely reactionary. Although the states where CPI (Marxist) has control won't implement this, so that is an extremely rare W by them. Modi's continous rule over the nation as well as the military occupation of Kashmir is bound to be the destruction of the Hinduvta project

Overheard a random conversation at uni where they said "and they'll say how anti-zionism is not anti-semitism but they forget more than 90% of Jews are Zionists", "Don't get me wrong, not all Palestinians are bad" or whatever other bullshit.

The world was peaceful when I was a child because I didn't know what the world outside really was, the world to me back then was just my home, yet it wasn't really peaceful, it was hell because of fighting, alcoholism, the usual trauma a child faces.

The world as I see it now is a shithole, but precisely due to it being a shithole did I discover how to really love, and do it correctly. Love people, love animals, love nature. You can relate this to how the dictatorship of the bourgeoisie and its efforts to maintain the status quo precisely due to its contradictions gives the proletariat everything necessary to fight. But I'm isolated right now, I don't really have anyone here, but I have more than enough love that is going empty due to not that many people being there to give it to, which I think of as a contradiction.

Marx says how you can't liberate others without liberating yourself, or at least I think he was the one who said it, but I see it as a contradiction with what I say here, that you can't liberate yourself without liberating others. The solution here precisely lies in the act of liberation. You don't liberate others necessarily during dialogue, during educating yourself through everyone, neither do you necessarily liberate others during this long, tiring process of waging a war. But people liberate each other. I think I got this from Pedagogy of the Oppressed by Paulo Freire, which I recently finished. I see its influence on the words I typed out in the post just as I'm typing this right now lol, its a really good work that talks about education through dialogue, criticizing the banking mode of education (used in college, schools, etc) as preserving the status quo. He uses examples from Mao's cultural revolution to say that cultural action is a process of education that has to start before, and not after taking power. I can't describe everything ofcourse, its a short read, around 150 pages and I'll recommend it.

I think I lost track there and switched topics, anyways, that's about it, hope I was able to explain why I wrote that. I just write things and finish it off whenever I'm not in a particularly good mood. I think you should understand it for yourself too, instead of relying on my explanation. Your subjective perspectives of a work (or anything) also matters as much as that of the creator.

Anyways, have a good day!

I don't care for such nonsense. I'm going back to sleep

 

Feels great. The bill gives the govt. power to set encryption standards to messaging services like whatsapp, signal, facebook, instagram, etc as per what they deem to be a public threat (Yes, this means they hold power over seeing private messages and acting appropriately). Also this bill was passed in the absence of more than a 100 MP's, who were suspended. its not like Hinduvta dickriders will be effected, this applies to queers, women, lower-castes, Muslims, and any whistleblower/journalist who speaks for them. India is indeed a fascist dictatorship of the comprador-bourgeoisie, it has never been democratic, but now the government is feeling more and more free to let all of the reactionary elements of it out in the open. The education system is also riddled with propaganda, which is visible with comments under news posts understanding it in an entirely wrong way ("We are skipping China and directly heading to North Korea"- they both are more democratic than you will ever be; "Everyone should read 1984"- read revolutionary science, not bullshit anti-communist fiction, which was not even applied to a state like India. In fact Orwell would be jacking off to this if he was alive).

I feel doomerist from time to time, but obviously that won't help me. The only way to go is raising class consciousness and mobilizing people to organize. I can't do that when I'm not even there. It sucks but I'll have to keep fighting.

I think R did you a favour by eating your "snack"

thank you for clarifying

Get Out wasn't scary to them, so I just meant that bringing up FD isn't a relevant comparison. Whiplash is more scary than FD and it isn't even horror

sorry this is so funny to me thinking of a situation where someone's partner is mad at them, tells them they need space, starts crying while staring at a page of Capital Volume 1 in Arial size 25 and saying out loud "at least you wouldn't do this to me"

 

Not the remake, I haven't seen it, but I finished everything else today after starting on 13th.

I'd say my fav. from the original series is the first one (ofc), and Escape. I love all three from the reboot series, honestly can't decide. But I think POTA is the ultimate communist franchise!! /halfserious.

I think the character of Caesar was more fully developed in the second series, although I can't say if I'm biased due to the more advanced technology when compared to the 1970s tho.

Here are my ratings

Lmk what your thoughts on the franchise are, and have a nice day/night comrades <3

To nobody, thin air, and the universe

The motor cortex in the brain activates

yet my mouth stays silent

"Something, get something out

Contribute so that you don't feel like a creep" My heart, screams those words

yet the action feels nothing short of a dream

What do you want me to do? How can I be here, in this world

in this room

where I cannot feel like I belong

My heart believes in me, still it does

I'm alive, that's proof of it

Maybe there's just something not right in me

Why won't the words come out

Maybe I unconsciously know it won't lead to anything

A friend, but one that stays in my mind

I'm trying so hard, I still continue to

feels like I'm eating nothing but failures

You know, when I walk, I see the people as dots

small, black dots

not because I see them as obstacles

but I see myself as one

If someone could tell me they see me

Me trying would mean something I feel like I'm going insane

Because when it rains

I see nothing but tears

"Don't do it now, there are people here"

Not like it matters, I'm not there in the room, even if they see me

"Okay, you're alone now, let it out my friend" All of it saying is my heart

Does it really matter anymore if I give away to my isolation or if I give it my all to socialize

what is the difference? is there any that meets the mere eye?

The very essence of a human being is one to connect

Social animals, as they say

I am one too

but deprived of all the social means that make me a human

Am I even a human anymore?

Why do I exist

I scream and I scream but nobody cares

because nobody is there

I've told this countless times

that I feel like an invisible soul

Like the shore besides the sea

its waves, beautiful crescendo of waves

but alas its midnight

Midnight is every second for me

Maybe I should be trying harder

I just don't know what to do

for now I lay in the bed, alone in my room

as my heart soothes me with tunes

and tells me that it is too soon

"When the time comes, so shall your fortune" Empty words don't have empty meanings

the meaning is simply that the heart has given up too

15/12/2023

It matters how if I read today or tomorrow Won't change the world, nor my sorrow Give me happiness, and my love you can borrow

A world of snakes is all it is A few who're not also don't exist Come in my life and I'll believe your will

Happy friends is all it takes For me to stay awake for just this time, to let me say that I won't die, and to mean it this time Because I can be saved by you if I tried anyway But you, my love exist so far and you, my friend don't exist at all So what's the point besides the fall I won't be saved by the time you call

Knife, roof, or pills you choose and I'll oblige until Until you face my eyes and slap my face for even trying to think of this as a waste

but you aren't here, and you aren't there you are a screen who I just fear won't come true and I'll just sear over the skies waiting

not you I blame but if at least if I had others like yourself to keep me sane someone who would come by the lane when it rains, no raincoat but only us to blame getting wet as we laugh away the pains it is all in my head and like everything that is this is also to go in vain

so again, I repeat, pills, roof, or knife so that I can not submit to this life "none" you would say and I'll continue this strife

When will it forever end, I've chanted since the beginning I fear it has already made its way to the past I keep repeating and inventing new endings when I'm only creating the preludes to something more and more destructive in me

Why can't I just be free? From this entity called time.

Only time will tell Until then, be my friend? Alas I'm only talking to walls Just for the millionth time I hope there is someone behind them

I'm revisiting my fav. clips from my fav piece of art of all time, Bojack Horseman. And I'm crying again. This show means so much to me, yet its so depressing. I find it so fucking funny, yet so sad, that the protagonist's life is one full of suicidal ideations and depression, and that is with a shit ton of addictions. And here I am, feeling the same without any of that, it was like I was made to feel shallow and empty, it was like my soul was never born with my body. The character is toxic to everyone and to himself, out of which his relationships are all dysfunctional. I'm not toxic, yet I feel dysfunction in my relationships and with myself, even though that may not truly be the case. I'm so fucked up. I can never convince myself that someone truly will cry like I am crying right now, for me, if I jumped. I can never convince myself that someone can selflessly love me and care for me. All that exists in my mind is a sense of extreme doubt and paranoia. All that exists in my heart is a love I give for others without any question, which I can't really receive without my own delusions intervening. I cannot receive love. I feel it but I'm not loved because I don't believe one ounce of it. I am so embarrassingly fucked up. It's so funny.

but hey, at least I have a favorite show, and I found my favorite song out of it. Let's rejoice.

There are bigger things happening right now, and this isn't particularly important to me. This is just for people who talk to me regularly/casually, want to talk to me, refer to me in conversations, or anyone vaguely interested.

Around the middle to end of last year was when I realized that the patriarchal monogamous nuclear family that capitalism pushes on everyone isn't really for me.

Lately I've felt the same for the concept of gender, gender norms and (especially) the binary that is pushed on, specifically for the purpose of division of labor between the nuclear cishet family (which effectively functions as private property) and to exploit the woman to an even greater extent.

So yeah, fuck it.

Pronouns for now are they/he. Will move on to they/them once I feel more comfortable.

Don't give this too much importance anyway, I'd rather you read Wretched of the Earth instead to get a better understanding of what's going on.

you can message me if you want a pdf.

BYE!

What the Great October Socialist Revolution did was put the power in hands of the people, and started its construction of a world without any class struggle, or a state to divide classes. It shattered the illusion of oppression being the only reality, and paved the way towards proletarian internationalism. Today is indeed one of the days that shook the world.

Lenin walks around the world

Frontiers cannot bar him

Neither barracks nor barricades impede.

Nor does barbed wire scar him.

Lenin walks around the world

Black, brown, and white receive him.

Language is no barrier.

The strangest tongues believe him.

Lenin walks around the world.

The sun sets like a scar.

Between the darkness and the dawn,

There rises a red star.
