    What I asked was “Is he really a cartoonishly evil stereotype” and I’m not asking if he was evil or not because he was, but I was more talking about how his hatred for America and his desire to do bad things to the US government did not come into existence randomly or out of nowhere. He did not just hate the west “For their freedom” but his susceptibility to be radicalized and indoctrinated into Islamic terrorism is because of the very real grievances inflicted upon the middle east. Your answer is right, but I think it’s focusing too much on whether or not he was evil as opposed to the characterization we see in the west where the government takes no responsibility for their own contributions to the violence.

    If we look at the man himself and his radical ideology it’s about forceful conversion of the western world to Islam since he is an Islamic terrorism, but as an anti-imperialist I want to bring focus the responsibility of the US government in providing training, weapons, and public support to Bin Laden as well as creating huge injustices around the world that cause people like Bin Laden to eventually become radicalized and engage in these kinds of attacks.

    The oppression of Palestine also plays a role in hatred for America and Israel, even if people then use that hatred to support ideologies such as the one that Osama advocates. Studying how the US operates around the world, I do not agree with Osama Bin laden or his actions but it is easy to see how the US regime creates so many enemies for itself which calls into question their actions and motivations.

    I can’t argue with anything you are saying and I honestly agree, but I believe that continuing to propagandize leftism will be ultimately good for the masses and can cause chaos which will frustrate the regime and disrupt the society. If I can just reach people who are burning with passion to do something against the system, I can give them the knowledge they need to get ideas of what they should do. I personally hate America so I will continue spreading anti-American and anti-government ideas as well.

    I am propagandizing in favor of left-wing ideas and working to reach and spread the ideology online to those who are receptive. I find the average liberal not worth trying to interact with because they are so resistant to any real leftist ideas. I am advocating things that are good for the masses but I am trying to encourage activism and other progress to be made in ways that do not require approval from the masses which are overwhelmingly liberal and resistant to authoritarianism.

    I agree, but I think the liberals are too over socialized to participate in leftism in groups which makes this the next logical thesis. A high number of lone wolfs is also preferable to a single organization in regards to making suppression difficult and keeping the movement of actors difficult to predict by authorities.










    1. Local blood donation centers give twenty dollar gift cards for blood donations, and I think if I was female or trans with functioning ovaries and got pregnant, that would be enough encouragement to get an abortion especially if it makes more sense economically to not have children.
    2. No. But at the same time the reason I would say to do it like this is because coercion or forceful methods of population control would be abusive, reactionary, and ideologically adventurist.
    3. That is a part of it but in that story it was more done to punish the different provinces of the country for rebelling against the capital, so it was never done with benevolence towards the citizens or with the best intentions of humanity in mind.















  • Do you believe that the systems we have are for the benefit of anyone besides the ruling classes of the US? Are you comfortable enough that you do not actually care about the systemic injustices people experience under such a system? Regardless, Xi and Putin are not going to bring us liberation or they would be supplying free weapons and training to revolutionaries. The only countries that still do that these days are Cuba and the DPRK, and they only do that if you go to them and seek it out on your own, since they are ideologically anti-imperialist.

    And if you really do want an example of Russia wanting to cause chaos in the west, look up Black Hammer, that group that was infamous for claiming to be socialist while hating Anne Frank.

    That sounds very unpleasant, but I think due to rigor mortis and the gas that a corpse produces some ghosts may feel bloated or stiff if they are still connected to their old bodies. It probably feels like constipation all over their body.
