Me: "Yes" soviet-chad

Lmao I wouldn't even call me an angry person. I'd call me an empathetic person that is responding naturally to a shitty system.

Being submissive isn't a virtue. You just dislike justified defiance because it makes it harder for you to pretend everything is okay. It reminds you of your cowardice.

It reminds you of your cowardice.

That goes hard.

It also reminds people that there is another option and that they are choosing to remain silent.

Honestly, coming to this site and seeing comments like this is one of the only few ways I can get external validation that it's not me that's going crazy. Keep on fighting the good fight comrade.

It is no measure of health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society

society: offensive

also society: why are you offended?

I think for a lot of libs it's this willingness to say 'No, things shouldn't be like this" that makes them so angry when people push them from the left. They take it as a mark of their sophistication and maturity that they have constructed an elaborate series of excuses that mean no one should be mad, liberalism is the best things can realistically be. Given that a lot of criticism from the left comes from people who clearly know and care a lot about how things actually are and make an effort to understand what's happening, they can't just handwave you away like they do to CHUDs, and they're not prepared to defend the premise that things HAVE to be this way, they've just assumed that.

to be a Negro in this country and to be relatively conscious is to be in a state of rage almost all of the time

I used to identify as a pacifist... when I was in middle-school/highschool. Now I believe violence IS sometimes the answer.
