I haven’t seen people comparing Palestine to Ukraine, but I have certainly seen people saying that the recent offensive against Israel is somehow all planned by Moscow…

Lately I’ve been really into PetroDragonic Apocalypse; or, Dawn of Eternal Night: An Annihilation of Planet Earth and the Beginning of Merciless Damnation and Fishing for Fishies by King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard. I have listened both like more than 30 times already.

Ah, yes, the Whites™ from Whiteland. Yeah, honestly, fuck those guys.

Many papers published as pre prints in arxiv never make it out of there, there’s too much rubbish in the academic world, just like this article. And not only in the social sciences, I’ve seen plenty of bad papers in chemistry and biology there too.

I’ve always hold sympathies for leftist causes. It is not that I was a red diaper as they say, but I was raised by my mother to help others and be compassionate. I think it is fair to say that her interpretations of Christianity and catholisism also had an effect in that, although I’ve never been too keen on the church. Even as a kid I admired Hugo Chavez, because while I didn’t understand everything he said at the time, I knew he was talking and acting in favor of the working people in Venezuela. As an adult with class consciousness today I realize that growing up in a world where there’s no Soviet Union has been quite fucked up and feel hopeful thanks to China’s rise.

I feel I was primed to turn left in my politics since childhood and being a biologist the appreciation I gained for life in the planet was also a huge influence, but the pandemic was the turning point where I realized all the lies and the capitalist system as the driving force behind the crisis more than the virus. Marxism and dialectical materialism have exactly both the scientific outlook I always look for and the call to action that reminds me the world can be changed for better. Also, one day a colleague posted a video on facebook about K-pop’s late stage capitalism and it was a rabbit hole from then on due to my ADHD making me hyperfixate on it.

I don’t even remember how I found GenZedong, but I think it was through BayArea415. Damn, I miss him.

Didn’t read the description until I posted a comment. As OP says. Fuck the PAN. Fascists and nazis that have put Mexico into the worst cycle of violence of the last 100 years.
