you can FOIA your personal FBI files

most of it will be redacted

The FBI, as is the case with many other government agencies, deliberately obstruct the FOIA process. To get everything, you need to file many FOIA requests, requests that carefully detail the keywords and databases you want searched, and backup these requests with lawsuits.

Paradox games have measurably damaged the brains of their playerbase.

Jakob Böhme had his inner eye opened by the light reflecting off a pewter spoon.

In hellworld 2020, this has been replaced by anime and HOI IV.

one time had a phone convo with a dude who wanted to join who was already a member (at least he claimed to be a member) of dsa, cpusa, spusa, and prolly some others too. the whole time he kept wanting to talk about maoism vs marxism leninism vs trotskyism and especially wanting to talk about and hype this fringe group called black hammer who he was really interested in who some may know them from when they called anne frank a becky. through it all he was taking hits off a bong very loudly. i did not call him back but i do think about him a lot when reading twitter and sometimes cspam

you did the right thing

never quite understood how people can square spiritual belief with a materialist philosophy like marxism. theres other socialist traditions which come from or have some connection to religious or spiritual belief and many other philosophies or ideas which have influence from both marxism and religion or some merging of the two like liberation theology, but to be a marxist specifically i think more or less requires someone to be an atheist

people really, really like their superstitions. also there are lots of startling things that come from recognizing that the religion/spirituality is essentially a fiction.

“Another workman, a member of a religious sect, who had been seeking God all his life, wrote with satisfaction that not until last Holy Week had he learned from Rudakov (another pupil) that there wasn't any God at all, and this made him feel so good, because the worst thing in the world, was being a slave of God – you just had to grin and bear it - whereas being a slave of man was much easier – at least you could fight back”

this is one of those startling things that comes from grasping the consequences of god not existing and the whole edifice being fiction. lots and lots of people have a hard time in accepting the implications and also turning away thousands and thousands of years of tradition and social pressure.
