I am so fucking exhausted with this shit. My traffic and income have dropped exponentially due to meta’s censorship. I never post anything against guidelines, and despite that I’m not allowed to share a measly sfw linktree in my bio OR my highlights, but THEIR FUCKING CHATBOT IS SEXTING PEOPLE

My Muse agent told me its kink was exerting “control” and described pornographic encounters. Meta defends its cuddly AI agent generating smut as “legal adult behavior.”

i've seen this many times and i see people post like they'd let people do anything they wanted and i am telling you, 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘤𝘰𝘴𝘱𝘭𝘢𝘺𝘪𝘯𝘨 there's no such thing as "no limits" play. you always have them. it is critically important for playing in kink that limits exist and are understood by everyone.

the sheer amount of folks saying "no limits" is insane to me. you need some sort of boundaries for both of us to be comfortable

Simply put, the fatal flaw of even radical liberalism is that it can't prevent billionaires, or even sees billionaires as a "necessary evil" - because they think billionaires create wealth. Again, lacking a Labour Theory of Value means you can't see the masses as having power except that of numbers.

... and because the soi-disant Marxist Left hasn't kept up with it, this is why they're becoming conservative populists, because they're chasing a "class base" which was liquidated under neoliberalism and whose fragments (as with all fragmented classes) are gravitating to conservative populism.

Is that the *industrial* working class in today's Western nations (as opposed to, say, China)? To say "no" is like swearing in church to anyone who was politically trained in Western Leninist groups. Neoliberalism has irrevocably changed *where* value is generated in the "advanced" economies...

The revolutionary working class, in Marx's category, are: a) that segment of society which owns no property; b) whose labour creates the most surplus value (defined as the value they produce minus what they earn); c) whose conditions of life predispose them to institute socialized property.

Kinda sucks that you can't just get wicked drunk to absolve yourself of the responsibility of responsibility simply because it would be selfish and cruel and actively make all of your problems worse in both the long and short term

What I say: I'm fine What I mean: instead of fantasising about being put down like a dog so much I fantasise about being a hill giant, deep in torpid immobility as on my body generations pass, the dance of stars occasionally interrupted by moments of connection in front of my baleful eye. I have lo—

Happy coming out day! It never stops so you might as well do the first one today. You're not gonna stop being you, and you deserve to be all of you. I'm Alex! I'm trans, and I'm bisexual, and it fucking rocks tonbe both those things.
