String of the opening passages of my books to date.
1. The Communist Necessity (Kersplebedeb, 2014/2020)

applying historical materialism to the concept of serial murder, you'd have to first define what a "serial killer" is, not based on FBI criminology, which is sus, bc their pathology is junk science, plus youve got "serial killers" dressed in camos in vietnam and iraq

friends outside the philippines would have to wait. i feel bad for yall tho cuz this book is the best materialist approach on AI. there will be no socialized AI for the same reason there will be no socialized astrology or socialized alchemy
My daughter's Halloween costume that she made herself. Let's see if any of you know who she's dressing up as:
Looking forward to reading this
the past week has been unnecessarily hectic and i have done a horrendous job at promoting thus far but this book i have spent the last couple years writing is finally out in the world and i am deeply horrified but proud of it. worked so hard on being as humbly sober, fair, and honest as humanly possible.
it is a polemic, historical, and theoretical. flawed, maybe even limited—but deeply curious. and rooted in an utter devotion to wanting to advance contemporary struggle beyond its severely underdeveloped and embryonic stage in which we’ve found it (but trying to perform an autopsy for the world we have inhabited).
very excited to be in dialogue with so many brilliant folks, to hear criticisms and takedowns, in the coming months!!!

Gladwell continues to grift. He's been exposed as a charlatan so often and *still* people treat him like a credible expert because he sounds intelligent.

By “antisemitism in schools” she means her daughter’s school organized a bake sale for Palestinian charities in November 2023 and when she threw a fit and forced the school to agree that all proceeds be split equally between Palestinian and Israeli charities the other parents voted to cancel the whole thing altogether.

I know this is a joke about the whole astrology discourse, but unironically the people I actually hear arguing about their cultural right to beat their children are western-centric white boomers. "God gave me the right to slap and spank my child!"

Colonizers have always portrayed resistance as terrorism, savagery, and barbarism. They love to play the victim of the so-called savagery of the colonized and use this perpetual victimhood to justify their genocidal actions.

"What the Israeli occupation promoted of allegations that the Al Qassam Brigades on Oct. 7 were targeting Israeli civilians are nothing but complete lies and fabrications."
Looking at this again and what a terrible take. Not only is it typical of the Jacobin group to echo right wing talking points, but the "seems like a sad byproduct of individualism & therapy culture" is the most asinine, non-investigated explanation.
The historical communist movement required cadre to break from their family and put their politics and the party first. As a former friend once joked about another friend: "if he can't challenge his family how can he challenge society?"
