Something happened where the left stopped policing their own. President Kennedy was very anti-communist, they used to know when they were going to far. The right still polices their extremes the left do not. I blame those who should be policing their side (or at least leaving it).

look at comicsgate, main stream comics are dying while alternatives are rocketing upwards and making bank while delivering good product

Kennedy was the left policing its own. LBJ helped set his death up

Iron Sights is shipping physical copies already.

I am very into the comics stuff. First time in a long time I bought comics.

The shift in the left began when the radicals of the late 60s graduated and worked their way into positions of power. they recruited and trained a second wave, and that's what we're dealing with now.

Have you ever read some of the old stuff of the media and academic apologizing for the ussr its so gross. many of them knew how bad it actually was too.

the proteges of the 60s radicals have been placed or have insinuated themselves into positions of power but all they know is the philosophy of divide and conquer. they have no ideas of their own. they are effectively parasites killing their host.

what old stuff?

The NYT recently (the last few years) ran some articles about how good things were under stalin and mao. I couldn't believe it.

that LGBT student society apologizing for gulags?

saying that they were humane and just and that everyone there was basically receiving therapy.

the what?

the new stuff they titles red century [NYT]

are you kidding me?

even neo nazi don't pretend the death camps were a good thing, they try to deny they happened.

"Paradoxically the thread was written as an apparent justification for an earlier post by the same group which threatened to send a political opponent “to the gulag”."

The fundamental problem here is that post-modernism requires that all people share the same socially constructed reality. People who dissent and insist upon a different reality are invalidating the existence of those who uphold the accepted reality.

that's not very smart

So dissenters must be either fixed or killed.

You must learn to love the party.

Straight out of Orwell.

yeah...i know how that worked

and it was a reality for some people 29 years ago

Think of lucid dreaming. If you know you're dreaming and you're dreaming long enough to get the hang of it you can do anything you want. Anything. Reality bends to your whim. It's pretty fucking awesome.

@Bo_Co By the way, to your earlier questions about denials, Walter Duranty covered the USSR for the new york times and won a pulitzer. The NYT eventually had to apologize for that.

Now imagine if there was another conscious mind sharing that reality who could also bend anything within it to his whim. Including you.

How are you going to treat him? Friend? Indifference? Enemy?

He's the only thing in the universe other than you that can harm you.

Out of simple self-preservation you must either dominate him or destroy him.

That's post-modernism.

>not joining up to double-bully your enemies

Sure, for a time. But in the end there can be only one will.

>I have a gun
>you have a gun
>surely one of us must kill the other
I dont really buy that tbh

That's not a good analogy.

Let's say I'm Ben Shapiro and I say there are only two genders.

In what sense? That it doesn't map to a scenario that has no actual logical structure?

And you're some special snowflake who thinks they're a third (or fourth, or fifty-seventh gender).

If both of our believes actually alter reality, we can't exist simultaneously.

Either our beliefs have to change or we have to change.
