DoomBloomDialectic [he/him, they/them]

this is just fucking sad, even if a lot of the people featured in the story seem like pricks. such a triumphant victory of solipsistic self-worship over the transcendence that comes from genuine communion. that these people are so deprived of the divine, veil-piercing experience of genuine love toward and from another that they resort to feedback loops of mastrubatory ego affirmation in dimly lit locked rooms. or even worse, that they’ve felt the former but decided they prefer the latter on account of the bleak conditioning of our fallen, demiurgical world.

fuck this timeline, not gonna definitively say it’s the worst but bottom 10%, EZ

wtf just let the homies accessorize, if you pull off a sick look and some h8r calls you “pointless” that’s on them tbh

I was a religious cushvlog watcher and you could kinda see Matt become more and more Chinapilled in real time. idk if he ever made it all the way way to “China is genuinely socialist,” but I also think that’s the kind of question Matt would probably have written off as unanswerable theorycrafting that people ruminate endlessly on mostly online - or otherwise in isolation - which they mistake for actually doing politics (I don’t really have an opinion on whether that last part is right or wrong, just educated guessing where he’d be at during the later cushvlogs era).
