As opposed to that quote about “the horrifying ordeal of being known,” do y’all ever feel so positively UNKNOWN and UNSEEN that it frightens you? Like there’s a self that you feel on the inside, and you believe to be “you,” but it seems like nobody else sees that version of you? And they’re interacting with someone that isn’t you but a projection of their experience of you? What’s more, perhaps nobody will ever know your true essence and you will die without ever being fully realized????? I’m only two beers in honestly

It's easy to be a socialist in a little privileged first world country. Venezuela and Cuba are waiting for you, you little lazy useless f*cktard. Hope ignorant people like you rot in hell for supporting such evil ideologies. CAPITALISM WILL LIVE FOREVER LIKE IT OR NOT, move to Cuba if disagree then. GO AND DARE LIVING ACTUAL SOCIALISM.

Whoa mad as hell and for what?? Have a blessed day my friend.

I give you all nothing and yet you continue to follow me. Respect

Honestly I should just nuke my online presence and move to a cheap middle of nowhere apartment in the Midwest

An old abandoned barn that I used to drive by everyday on the way to work burned down today, as if to punctuate that “apocalypse” feeling of late.

Goodnight all, I hope tomorrow you’re closer to finding whatever it is you’re looking for

I posted this to Twitter but I think it’ll be better received here: In the past few months, I’ve read Malcolm X, Maya Angelou, and James Baldwin. When are we gonna talk about how they were all, to varying degrees, anti-liberal? I don’t see that in any of the aesthetic Instagram infographics.

Malcolm X, from The Autobiography of Malcolm X (1964)

Maya Angelou, from MAYA ANGELOU: POEMS (1981)

James Baldwin, from The Fire Next Time (1962)

I feel like there’s a reason why MLK is practically the face of 1960s protest: nonviolence can be more easily forced into subordination. Nonviolent protest does not threaten conservatives’ OR liberals’ platforms, and allows both to keep the angry masses under their thumb. Versus a Malcolm X, a Black Panther Party, etc. that will *demand* their needs and their rights through whatever means necessary.
