controversial thoughts

Scrolling through reddit, have been seeing these fear mongering posts about needing to vote for Biden cuz trump is the half spawn of Satan.

A few things cross my mind, one of the first things is "how do I know whether or not is this propaganda?"

(Sitting in Miami Dade and Xmas music is on - I want to take my life at this moment j/k)

The other is, I'm thinking about this farkakte reality that we have. Primarily the forces that drive it aka evolution and what that entails. One of the things about evolution is that it relies on change and sometimes that change is violent. To continue that thread I think that we as a society are going to have to endure some serious violence if we ever think of having a chance at serious change for the better for humanity. Which brings us to a sort of paradox for a good portion of leftist thoughts and beliefs. Primarily that of the non violence/love conquers all crowd.

I recognize my ignorance (and fuck i'm tired from that Peru flight). This is something that has been on my mind for a while now... I want to say that life presents no certainties aside from what others have stated about death n taxes... I question this a bit... Uncertainty abouty thoughts as I have been sitting on this idea that life is an illusion... Based on physics, based on the collective understanding of what science says about the origins of the universe and what it is that we know to date. The philosophical aspects about being a brain in a vat.

Violence is reality... Is it something I advocate, certainly not but never less it is a reality that is a component of reality. Denying the reality of violence is to deny reality. Life is about cycles, and humanity has this uncanny knack for trying to circumvent reality.

That said, I don't see the political environment as something that is legitimate in providing honest answers or solutions. Biden is the lesser of two evils... But thats the rub right? He's still an evil.

If I believe in something outside the current reality, voting for that same reality makes no sense. Do I support capitalism? Do I support the current foreign policies that continue to sow violence and destruction in the name of "security"?

So why would I vote for one who continues those practices? Just bcuz he's not trump?

Biden is an avowed capitalist... Which is something that I see as the number 1 thing that is detrimental to society as a whole.  My life is being dictated by others people's fears and propaganda from an oligarchical positions.
