We aren’t warring with Ukraine-because Ukraine is a Nazi invention, created by Polish, German and American imperialists. This creation, like brain cancer, devours the ability to remember and to think of those who live on it, turning (especially the youth) into cruel zombies. Ukraine, or “Outskirts” in Russian, has for ages being called those Russian lands which are at the line of contact with the other side.

Similarly the far east is not a government or nation, but-like Ukraine-Russian land on the eastern border of Russia. And if anyone says there are differences in language, well there are the Tatarstan Republic, the Republic of Buryatia, Republic of Dagestan etc. Once again, there will be a Ukrainian Republic. What’s the problem? Ukraine isn’t going anywhere, but it will be under our protection.

Today we are rectifying a historic injustice-liberating a part of Russia-Kyivan Russ, from it’s Anglo-Saxon and Jewish colonizer occupiers, the hands of which are covered up to their elbows in the blood of different people, which they don’t consider human.

That doesn't mean we should just to do away with it like we could do away with capital, the financial system, or waged labour. Because denying gender is also denying actual forms of living and embodied human existence,

And here we get to the knotty know a the core of all of this.

Gender is a social construct. What would denying this construct mean? We do not deny that it exists. We think however, it is harmful. You would try to proscribe us critiquing a social system which exists in order to exploit us and undermine our humanity because some people 'identify' with this system, and have built their "forms of living and embodied human existence" on IDENTIFYING WITH THE MECHANISM OF OUR OPPRESSION.

If, as you seem to claim, gender identity is not innate, then why should we not question people who are forging identities by identifying with an oppressive and harmful system?

Why would you not join us in asserting that people can dress and act anyway that their personality

inclines them to, and that they do not need to do so by identifying with and reifying harmful and oppressive social structures, that they do not need to internalise and ossify these structures by making them the entire basis of their 'identities,' and that they do not need to try

and make people who have every political basis for rejecting these structures collude with them in their efforts to reify and ossify them as the basis of their identities?

Patriarchal gender is harmful to the humanity of female people.

We will not identify with it. We will not be defined by it. We will not turn a blind eye to people essentialising it. We will not forget that the way it shapes our subjectivity damages us.

We will not be told that we are privileged because we 'fit it.' We will not be gaslit by men who have no idea how much damage gender conformity does to women, that trans or queer people are the only people who know anything about gender, and that 'cis' women need to STFU, when

you have completely trashed the materialist analysis of why gender exists, have completely forgotten it has anything to do with exploiting female people, and in fact, have no fucking model of gender that makes any explanatory sense whatsoever.

Vaush: If nothing else we can treat this as a reminder that the political compass test is absolutely worthless, though that's probably not new information if your IQ can be expressed in two or more digits

Dink Dinklemann: Mainly we can say communism sucks, and this mentally ill kid doesn't represent anyone.

Meanwhile, your antifa loonies are sharpening sticks all over the country seeing nazis around every tree.

Ultimately, it's too bad people can't talk to each other in the information age.

Nemo: Do you denounce the belief that a cabal of "Cultural Bolsheviks" are trying to destroy "Western" civilization? The belief that motivated the shooter?

Dink Dinklemann: No. That's happening. I wouldn't denounce the shooter's opinion that the Sun rises in the East and set in the West either. His murdering doesn't make all of his points invalid. It is his decision to kill people that is to be denounced. You know, mental illness is complicated.

Amanda Knox: Talking to parents who refuse to accept their trans kids is the second hardest part of my job. Talking to the kids of those parents is the hardest part. I've met youth living in shelters, parks, storage facilities, etc because they could no longer live at home.

James Lindsay: Ok groomer

Desmond E.S.: This is horrifying. Just mass grooming on an unbelievable scale - @GadSaadcoined the term, ‘idea pathogens,’ and he was absolutely right, these ideas are spreading, light-speed (thanks to the internet), and it’s destroying the family unit (as intended, duh.)
