Seems like I got a lot of self-proclaimed "pureblood" followers.
I legit was surprised how many people also didn't take the vax who follow me.
I didn't select for it.
But we all found each other I guess.
I'm not anti-vax for all, I'm anti-mandates.
...
I didn't take any vaccine tho.

I'll gladly usurp the phrase / hashtag from the cowardly abortion #prochoice cretin who apparently only believed in bodily autonomy when it was convenient for them.
You could have transcended politics and showed us what true conviction means. Disgusting cowards.
And again, I truly don't care what anyone does.
I have zero ill will for anyone who got vaccinated.
Most of my family and friends IRL did, I'm the black sheep.
You do you. I'm all for it. It's probably safe, maybe effective.
But if they support mandates, they're dead to me.
I called the government jumping on this opportunistically for power early.
I know the modern sane smart take is to shake your head at people who are making a choice to make a political stance.
It's seen as redneck dumb behavior.
Meh, I'm smarter and more educated than most. I'm no redneck - I got a PhD in Biomedical Engineering in 3 years and build medical AI systems every day.
And I see power games.
I'm suspicious.
Seeing the world through the lens of power back in 2015-2017 was something cringey.
I couldn't speak about society with that lens.
So I was quiet.
And here we are.
We now need people who see the power games going on.
Not so cringe now, eh?

The Will to Power is in all of us.
Once Nietzsche understood how we function at our core, he became afraid.
His fear? That all men would succumb to their sad passions, and that humanity would turn into chaos.
This is why he theorised the Will to Power, which represents that force hidden within us that tends to prioritise our impulses to avoid sinking to the side of the sad passions.
In other words, the Will to Power is the force to increase oneself.
However, there is one thing to be careful of: in Nietzsche's words, this Will to Power does not mean the desire to exert power over others, nor the desire to dominate.
No, on the contrary, it is about the growth of the "self", the surpassing of oneself.
According to Nietzsche, there is a Will to Power in all of us that always tips the balance towards the happy passions and keeps us away from our baser instincts.
However, Nietzsche is also very clear on this: even the Will to Power is in every man, we are not all equally endowed with it.
Some have an overflowing Will to Power, others less so.

One of the most disturbing pieces of 1984 was not the rats or even the idea that true love could be trampeled in the name of the State.
It was when O'Brien actually truly understood Winston's objections to the surveillance State. When Winston said O'Brien's mind encompassed his.
How many of you LARPers talking about it actually read the book? How many of you truly understood the mentality of the Brotherhood in the book and why the Party had no problem sharing the rebellious mentality?
About revisionist history?
Educate yourself, anon.
Read 1984.
For if O'Brien actually fully understood Winston's ideas of freedom, if O'Brien already fully accepted those views, if O'Brien understood Winston faithfully claiming that 'something' would eventually stop the Party.. and still went all in, then Winston's mind was a subset of his.
When O'Brien asked Winston under torture why the Party did what it did, Winston answered that they claimed to be for the greater good. O'Brien enacted pain.
He said don't try to lie - we gain power for power's sake.
He was fully aware of his motivations.
Unashamed.
Raw power.
Again, if you're gonna reference 1984 with modern times, maybe actually read the book first?

Shis is going down in Kazakhstan: https://twitter.com/ClintEhrlich/status/1479517789450911747?t=3Zilj6KQWdmwFdZ-DT8qDQ&s=19

The situation in Kazakhstan is a much bigger deal than Western media is letting on. I believe it significantly increases the risk of NATO-Russia conflict. Here is my report from Moscow. A MEGA-thread... 🧵
I'm not vaccinated but I don't care what anyone else does - I've been consistent since the start of this shitshow.
AI doesn't replace people, it displaces them. Low skilled individuals lose their jobs, which sucks and truly does happen, but the next generation just finds different jobs.
For example: We no long need human transcribers (people who convert audio into text).
So those people will lose their jobs to AI.
But we do need people to mindlessly label whether there's a cat in a picture to help train AI.
Tech has never ever ever made human labor obsolete on a mass scale. But it has put low skilled individuals out of a job in the short term.

I have to admit, it's hard to not make "unvaxxed" or "pureblood" (love the hilarious Harry Potter term - a mere stone's throw away from calling the vaxxed 'mudbloods') part of my identity.
But I know if I do, I am feeding into their identity politics, which is what they want.
I'm just a dude who didn't want the the needle.
I'm just a man who sees when his freedoms of bodily autonomy are being trammeled upon.
I have a lot more sympathy for the #prochoice women with abortion... despite their disgustingly cowardly hypocrisy in this situation.
Regardless, making this issue part of my identity actually makes me emotionally invested in viewing the world through their lens of "vaxxed vs unvaxxed".
I reject that dichotomy.
I'll always be anti-mandates.
But I'm trying to transcend their gluttonous identity politics.
My soul is a black hole - I can't be absorbed into another black hole.
Just as the singularity at the center of their games can't be absorbed into me.
I collect some individuals, as will they.
To view me as a mere cog in their system is spiritually naïve for those who know me.

People who apply the lens of race to every situation are the real racists.
I can honestly say I'm proud of how I acted in this situation. When people a thousand years from now look back on this situation, I'm unapologetically proud of my role.
