a nightmare on the brains of the living

Truth: All crumbled towers rebuild themself eventually

because it's genuinely insane the things i've heard americans say 'america doesn't have' when it's just factually incorrect.

for some perspective: during my longest move i did by-car in the u.s., i drove ~3,000 miles. That's ~4,800 km. It took nearly 50 hours drive-times alone. Meaning, if I could have driven without stopping once, it would have taken nearly 50 hours. Of course I split that up over several days.

Driving that same distance here, If there's a ferry+road from Rabat (in Morocco) to Kyiv (Ukraine), I could take it and keep on going another several hours.

So you can understand how silly it is for someone from the u.s. to be asked to answer a question on behalf of the entirety of the u.s.—geographically, culturally, etc.

So now that we've said all that, I need you to know that I listened to a guy from Idaho tell an Irish person today, "yeah, we just don't really get snails much in America."

its genuinely pathetic and peak radical liberalism. its also anti materialist since there are actual materialist theories of sexuality (marxism and psychoanalysis, which furthermore show that all sexuality is psychosexuality)

rape pedophilia and incestuous abuse are also widely normalized in society and embedded into culture so i really find it offensive to associate this with communism. something being taboo doesnt mean its countercultural

Even if they read the Marxist theory they profess to be such adepts in they could find a recognition of this all over the place. Unfortunately the letter in question is lost but in On the Origins of the Family Engels mentions this comment of Marx’s on the exact same issue

In a letter written in the spring of 1882, Marx expresses himself in the strongest terms about the complete misrepresentation of primitive times in Wager's text to the Nibelangen: “Have such things been heard, that brother embraced sister as a bride?” To Wagner and his “lecherous gods” who, quite in the modern manner, spice their love affairs with a little incest, Marx replies: “In primitive times the sister was the wife, and that was moral.”

remember everyone...
