he knows some shit but completely immaterial analysis. for now, crypto and stonks are not very linked, even with the stupid bitcoin etfs.
The left shouts “All Cops Are Bastards,” which ensures they’ll be hated by the police and the public (and flies in the face of leftist theory).
...Yeeeeeeeeah this is a settler; and as such, gets filed with the rest of the settler wind
from him on October 20:
We’re seeing the divisive media campaigns play out with the Israel-Hamas War: Harvard, Stanford, NYU, Penn, Columbia, and Cornell have all had professors or student groups make brazen, incendiary pro-Hamas statements. These schools are awash with crypto criminals, and these people are all lying – it’s all manufactured so they can make us angry, divide us, undermine anti-Netanyahu sentiment, and write countless op-eds about how any sort of leftist action at universities is wokeness run amok.
0 theory, already curling into defensive "oh it's just netanyahu that's bad"
Worse: a /r/stupidpol user
The bottom of my shoe has more dignity than r/stupidpol
This guy was apparently a r/trueanon user.
Also a stupidpol user.
I'll take "Things that Scan" for $500, Alex.
Doesn't surprise me.
I was expecting another "stop Trump or democracy is over" sorta thing but this is actually unique and compelling, interesting.
This "stop Trump or democracy is over" thing is so goddamn flimsy that I don't know if anyone, no matter how mentally ill, would willingly put themselves through any discomfort at all in order to defend it
Even those who honestly take that slogan at face value do not feel at all moved by it, except to performative tears... no lib would ever do any kind of violent or hurtful direct action like that, because this slogan is not about life or death, as was the case with Bushnell and, mistaken and ill as he might have been, with this man. It's all about feeling comfortable and undisturbed.
Lol 100% same.
Fascinating writing style as well, some of the pop culture bits were a bit too insane for me.
But otherwise a great read tbch
Seems to me like a white liberal struggling extremely hard to avoid blaming anything except the intensifying contradictions of capitalism, colonialism, imperialism, and patriarchy for his problems. “Fascism is coming” / “a ponzi scheme is about to collapse” like lol bro welcome to the year 1500 in England, we sure have a lot of history to tell you about.
This also has major first time as tragedy, second time as farce vibes. Aaron Bushnell set himself on fire to protest genocide; Mazarello here set himself on fire because his stocks might decline.
I have seen a lot of "oh this is kind of neat" posts on here that I can't square with the over-the-top Simpsons content.
we’re all Lisa Simpson
reading that is just sad
Is there any confirmation that this was actually written by him. I don't have any reason to doubt but a confirmation would be nice.
I got an email from Max Azzarello in October linking to this substack. He was shopping it around for a while to different left orgs (because it's bunk).
Weird post. I mainly noticed that it forgets other countries exist.
Ignore the words "global inflation" and you're 100% right
