  • Nor defensive driving. It’s taught in driver’s ed classes, the DMV emphasizes it in every pamphlet/driving manual/permit test, insurance company sources, and so on. The #1 rule: graveyards are full of people who were legally in the right.

    If someone tries to cut you off, put your ego aside and let them merge over. Yes, they’re an asshole. Yes, they probably broke a few laws. Yes, they probably do this because they know they can get away with it. But it absolutely is not worth your life, the lives of the people in your car, nor the lives of other people nearby because you want to get into a pissing match with another driver.

    You cannot control how other people drive, only your response to their shitty behavior. You see a lot of dashcam footage where the driver reacts to a dangerous situation by deciding to play bumper cars instead of trying to avoid an accident.



  • Especially the fucking troops. This is so blatantly transparent the US is making false claims about Venezuela. Any soldier who goes along with it and “follows orders” is a willing accomplice. There’s no justifying your participation in these war crimes. As far as I’m concerned, anyone who damages Venezuelan property or causes harm to Venezuelan people is fucking scum deserving to get sent to the Hague.

    But no. Americans will wag their fingers at Trump while “supporting the troops” who made the decision to kill innocent people. Americans are so detached and isolated from the violence of our military it all becomes an abstract force of nature, something that just happens, instead of people capable of telling right from wrong and choosing to do wrong.

    Vietnam vets didn’t get spat on but they should have and so should any troops who decide the Nuremberg Defense is what they’ll use after ransacking Venezuela.






  • People vastly underestimate the racism of Americans. They cannot remember “which Korea is good and which one is bad.” They think Arabs, Persians, Indians, and Urdu are all the same ethnicity with the same language and the same religion and belong in the same concentration camp because of 9/11. They “don’t speak Mexican” and think all of Centeral/South America and the Caribbean are called “Mexico.” They will refer to all of Asia as being either China or Japan, depending on which generation they belong to.

    I’ll hear from fellow Filipinos Whitey can tell we’re Filipino-Americans and I have to correct them with “Crakkkers think we’re Latinos until they hear our language, which they will then mock and call us Vietcong.”



  • Insert quote about “Never believe the antisemites are unaware of the absurdity of their claims.” You can replace “antisemites” with conservatives/reactionaries/Americans/whatever and the quote will still be true. They know, for example, there’s no drug smuggling operation being conducted by the state of Venezuela. They know you know there’s no such thing.

    They peddle the lie because it gives justification to steal shit and vilify immigrants to the US. It’s bully behavior of “Neener neener I’m not touching you so there’s nothing you can do about it!” It lets them act in a way beneficial to their material interests while demonstrating the power they have over others.







  • Yeah that’s where I’m at with my opinions. I think the majority of black Americans, majority of Native Americans, some Asian-Americans, some Latine Americans, and most LGBTQ+ Americans have been ready for revolution for decades. I say “some” and “most” loosely because there’s a lot of reaction spread across these groups due to anti-communism being why the diaspora exists or because of white privilege.

    Bringing us to the main problem, which is the overwhelming majority of white America will join on the side of fascism. A lot of them would literally eat shit before they call themselves equal to brown and black people. You see it all the time when something bad happens to the oppressed. The so-called middle class white person will run interference for injustice to maintain capitalism.

    Even liberals, who are supposedly on our side, disavow any direct action. They were pearl clutching over Luigi killing someone who directly harms them. They cry whenever a cop gets got. And they absolutely, 100% would give their lives to protect the shoe polish on the boots of the American military.

    Any escalation towards open revolution will be undermined by white people. We saw it happen with the Black Panther Party. We see it happen today with Native Americans (“Don’t hurt the precious oil pipeline poisoning your land nooooooo! Officer Obama, arrest these scoundrels!”). They even condemn Greta for trying to get food to Palestine.

    There’s no solidarity for leftism in the US, which is why our efforts should be focused on that before we meaninglessly throw away lives in a botched revolution. When we can get whitey to stop supporting troops who carry out war crimes and start supporting wildcat strikes, then and only then can we can start talking about riding off into the Cool Zone.



  • Demonstrates how even so-called “progressives” and liberals in the US are just the moderate wing of fascism. They’ll justify Iraq out one side of their mouth, then make excuses why Bill Gates and Prince Andrew shouldn’t be redacted by FBI handler. Their support for Isreal is another. They’ll criticisize Muslim nations over LGBTQ+ rights, while Isreal doesn’t even allow gay marriage and the US is actively trying to eliminate those rights wherever possible.

    It’s in-groups and out-groups. Republicans want the in-group to be limited to wealthy cishet WASP men, while democrats think it should be limited to some places inside the US border and a few white European countries.
