Been saying all this shit since 6th or 7th (stupid meme not intended) grade when I saw the writing on the wall. It’s fucking annoying that only since the COVID lockdowns does it appear anyone else started seeing it, too.
Covid showed many people it didn’t have to be this way. The ppp loans that were appropriately used to pay staff that had to quarantine. (Lots of them were abused.) The extended unemployment benefits, some states expanded Medicaid, the roll out of work from home on a vast scale. I feel you though. I’m 45, and as a 20 year old it was clear the system was rigged.
Most people don’t care until it impacts them personally. I don’t love it, but it’s just how people work. I hate that the accelerationists may have been right.
God that sends chills down my spine. I never thought of it that way. I always thought accelrationists were just opportunists, but you may be right in that they aim to have as many people personally harmed by the system so that they might all wake up and form a resistance.
I think I figured out I was never going to make it back in 2015 - 2017. When I was in my mid twenties. I rented shitty shared flats with tenants I didn’t like (one even stole property from me) and I also lived in a crack den, a place they sent people to, after they served their prison sentence. Meth and whores from time to time. Lots of passive-aggressive crap in the TV room that tenants obviously learned from prison. I heard that in prison people fight over what to watch on TV, so people were anal about rules in that crack den. They lived like they were still locked up.
Most of us just realized long ago the game is fucking rigged so what’s the fuckin point.

I mean, I’m not going to turn away allies just because they woke up later. I might be a little suspicious, but allies are allies.
And to be fair, most of the people seeing it now are the generations after mine, so they weren’t even around when I was in middle school.
