I think that understanding the Base is basically essential to understanding why the fuck literally anything happens and if you locate your analysis in superstructural critiques exclusively or worse, individualist idealisms, your analysis will fall the fuck apart.
"Who the fuck is this bitch and where does she get off talking like this" is a justifiable criticism of my posts and the answer is that I'm a communist nobody, like many of the masses of the world, and I dream of a better world than this one, and those dreams taunt me day in and day out.
I don't believe in "content creation" and I think that it's more of a plague upon humanity's relationship with art than "AI image generation" which is, really, just an advancement of the already extant technology of making utterly hollow middling slop for the sole purpose of engagement and income
I talk about KILLBOY like it's a manual for ML dialectics but only because I have OCD. it's actually a horribly intimate tragedy about what it means to be a member of the impcore who understands that she is complicit and evil and decides that the only redemption is to k*ll everyone (correct)
I trust the reader implicitly. "Here's a code snippet written in nearly-compilable Ada. Figure it out. I love you."
