  • I’m a bit confused by this word salad. The inital analogy made some sense about complexcity vs simplicity, but you lost me with the enjoying food with opiods? That part didn’t seem to tie to the initial premise, and the conclusion that contentness with one’s starting lot in life superceeds the reward of pursuing a goal and achieving it is quite a claom? I mean there’s something to be said of making sure to pay attention to the journey and not missing the forest through the trees, but just saying that complacency beats pursuit is a wild thing to me.

















  • Yeah sometimes I get frustrated because I wish “the left” could be adults for five minutes and deal with the issues at hand. Like I don’t care about the socialist alphabet soup if you’re from PSL, or DSA, or ISA or whatever, we all agree that people are being kidnapped by I.C.E. is evil and alarming, can we just deal with this right now? We can get back to bickering about philosophy later.

    But even that is complicated since there are disagreements that can’t be ignored, like whether to work with democrats, who time and time again undermine and cripple movements whenever able and divert them for fundraising.
