- Comment on We gonna fight 5 days ago:
Yeah sometimes I get frustrated because I wish “the left” could be adults for five minutes and deal with the issues at hand. Like I don’t care about the socialist alphabet soup if you’re from PSL, or DSA, or ISA or whatever, we all agree that people are being kidnapped by I.C.E. is evil and alarming, can we just deal with this right now? We can get back to bickering about philosophy later.
But even that is complicated since there are disagreements that can’t be ignored, like whether to work with democrats, who time and time again undermine and cripple movements whenever able and divert them for fundraising.

Its a bit of a complex topic, but in basic terms reactionary thinking is kneejerk reaction, what “feels right” without broader analysis. The popular surface level, like how people complain about trans people in sports cause it “feels unfair”, but when you look at the actual numbers there such a small section of out trans people in general, and even then they do pretty regular on average. Or how you here how believe all women will somehow make it “dangerous” for men dating, when in reality false accusations form less than one percent of cases, but one in four women experience assault. Whereas dialectical thinking is the thought that larger processes and symptoms influence outcomes, and one should take a step back and analyse the context and direct facts about something through critical thinking before coming to a conclusion. Like how study after study have proven that the number one factor contributing to a person engaging in violent crime is poverty, not just a person being born bad. Or how despite the narrative, immigrants commit crime at a lower percentage on average than natural born citizens.

To me it sounds like you’re starting to broach on the concept of reactionary vs dialectical analysis
- Comment on We gonna fight 6 days ago:
Yugopnik made a good point on the term “Leftist” and how its so broad that it includes many different idealogies that are quite honestly conflicting, i.e. stalinists, anarchists, etc., so that it appears leftists are always fighting since they are all lumped into the same category.

Tryin to move away from google. But ducksuckgo/bing search just kinda sucks too. Less relevent results. Though google quality is dropping like a ton of lead so we’ll see how that ratio pans out in a few months.

“Intellectual” is a bit of a stretch, because sure many had degrees, but a lot of the “science” they did was just literal torture with ko scientific method or even recorded results. I have trouble calling that actual science.

Reminds me when a black friend in Texas explained he can’t do that because of a real threat of violence, when it’s always just been something I’ve done without considering. Was an eye opener for me years ago.

Unfortunately? Mods are way better than dlc IMO, I don’t have to bloodlet my wallet everytime I want a new song. And they don’t have to deal with copyright bullshit, so way more songs and smaller artists are available. With beatsaber too their are even sites where you can upload your own music files and it will generate a whole level for you, complete with obsticle and difficulty options.

Technically does, but has a very high rate of failure on recovery, you need to recover the entire drive not just a section, and it can take days or weeks to read it back, vs mere hours.

Only good peas I’ve ever had were raw fresh off the vine. ENTIRLEY different texture and taste, juicy and crispy, vs bland and mushy. Whoever decided we need to start cooking them deserves the lack of love in their life.
