behold: the recent addition i rarely use

sorry i didn’t see your post this is the only feed i use

will vary historically and contextually but basically a subaltern class in patriarchy comprised of young people that are not full persons. typically they are legally disadvantaged and subject to the arbitrary discretionary power of adults. lil unrelated but some distinguish kid from child

me experiencing the wonders of nature:

my liberals focusing on power: "sure this discredits most of our historical theorizing, but we still have legitimacy" (the legitimacy is justifying to liberals that they are treating non-liberals with liberal values)

reading matt sleat and i'm prepared to be obnoxiously nitpicky the whole way through ex: sleat attributes too much intentionality to geuss here. G has stated repeatedly that he made a massive mistake using 'realism' to denote anti wishful thinking, and does not have much respect for IR realism

im gonna frame this and hang it up in your new apartment

yes this related to kasey (this time!) but its not because i like her or anything

AY HOLDUP

maybe it's just a tempermental difference in ambition or maybe it's a philosophical discrepancy, but rorty would basically say we need new vocabulary to even begin to reject existing conceptions. i can imagine geuss responding that this might overestimate one's ability to jump over their own shadow

god these lectures are so good. like imagine if we had real patriots (adornians) in the DSA (they would no longer be in the DSA)

this never stops being true

we should break community guideline #11 with her in the tents 🥺👉👈

egocoms stay winning

“a post-capitalist society would go beyond the realisation of bourgeois norms” (disclaimer: i don’t think this passage exhausts all senses in which immanent critique is used)

lol wait what
