“The entire question revolves around who will disarm whom. The only disarmament which can avert or end war is the disarmament of the bourgeoisie by the workers. And to disarm the bourgeoisie, the workers must arm themselves.”
Maybe you thought we were exaggerating when we said capitalists don’t see the rest of us as human.
“They wouldn’t be called human resources if they weren’t meant to be strip-mined.”
Habit accustoms us to everything. What we see too much, we no longer imagine; and it is only imagination which makes us feel the ills of others. It is thus by dint of seeing death and suffering that priests and doctors become pitiless.

You know how when someone flies past you at 90 in the slow lane on the highway, and you can’t help wishing that they hit a patch of oil and spin into a ditch?
Can’t imagine why that crossed my mind just now.
“White men less likely to be mindless sheep”
Your paper or cloth mask is useless against a 2 micron virus that can ALSO be absorbed through your eyeballs, OP.
1: The virus is smaller than the holes in the mask, but the virus does not fly by itself. It moves on water droplets pushed out on the breath of infected people. Those droplets are significantly larger than the holes in the mask.
2: A single protein will not lead to infection, because your passive immune system deals with that shit. Infection happens when the amount of the virus in your system overwhelms the defenses, which means the more exposure you get the more likely you are to get the disease. That’s why the rule is ‘stay more than 6ft away from people’ rather than ‘never breathe unfiltered air within 30 miles of an outbreak’. It also means that if you are not rubbing it directly into your eyeballs, you’re not going to get infected by the air touching your eyes.
3: The primary purpose of the mask is not to protect you. It does reduce your chances of infection (quite significantly when used right) but that’s secondary. The goal is to prevent you from spreading it to other people. There’s two weeks between when you become contagious and when you develop symptoms, and that’s if you do develop symptoms instead of being one of the 50-75% of infected who never notice it themselves but spread the disease to people who will die from it. But if you’re not smearing your hands over every available surface, or if the people around you are washing their hands properly, then the only way you can transfer it to anybody else is on your breath… and even a simple bandanna will cut the lethal range of your breath down from ‘about six feet’ to ‘maybe a couple inches’ by absorbing most of the moisture you breathe out and preventing the rest from getting any momentum from your exhalation.
tl;dr? You’re an idiot, wear your damn mask.
The men trying to argue the science that they just pulled out of their asses are what truly makes this art
these morons probably don’t wear seatbelts unless they see a cop, either. let them die.
This blog is mostly so I can vent my feelings and share my interests. Other than that, I am nothing special.
If you don't like Left Wing political thought and philosophy, all things related to horror, the supernatural, the grotesque, guns or the strange, then get the fuck out. I just warned you.
