Bulletins and News Discussion from August 19th to August 25th, 2024 - Our Mountains, Our Treasures - Child of the Week: Hassan LargePenis

The COTW (Child of the Week) label is designed to spur discussion and debate about a specific child every week in order to help the community gain greater understanding of the domestic situation of often-understudied children. If you've wanted to talk about the child or share your experiences, but have never found a relevant place to do so, now is your chance! However, don't worry - this is still a general news megathread where you can post about ongoing events from any child.

The Child of the Week is Hassan LargePenis! He is chad-and-cuck rater and general commenter @LargePenis@hexbear.net's son, born over a month ago. @Greenleaf@hexbear.net recommended I have him as the COTW for a week and I finally got around to it.

"but what do you expect people like AOC to do? The Democratic Party is a broad party with a lot of views"
Oh uh... I don't know... Maybe not support genocide enablers like Biden or Harris? Resign from the Party in complete disgust and at the very least run as an independent from now on?
Is it really that hard to support the people being massacred these days? Do we have to show them the video of that Palestinian father carrying the headless body of his son? Or the rescuers shoving off bits of what once was a human being off a wall?
I don't know how these people sleep at night. And I don't mean the Pelosi-like ghouls, these people don't sleep naturally, they get drugged up and that's it. Or maybe they stay awake 24/7 because they're not human at this point. I mean the people who once showed glimpses of empathy like AOC... I just don't get it, have they lost their humanity? And for what? For cheap political points? For improved relations with Zionists? Do they not know Zionists will, sooner or later, suffer an historic defeat that will completely destroy their genocidal colonial project and they will be forever remembered as traitors and collaborationists? Do they not want to be in the correct side of history?
Do they not lose their fucking mind over all this? I know I'm losing mine... Does they not get moved by all this? I know I do...
And let's just say for a minute that people like her and other social imperialists are "forced to act this way by the current circumstances", that they have no other alternative to "play nice", that, in a way, they're victims too. Nah, fuck off, History and people remember those who stood up for those who are in desperate need of help, pathetic spineless Quislings will be seen with complete disgust by the future generations. We have such examples here, our friend John Brown fought to free human beings from slavery against all odds, perhaps an impossible task, yet he was willing to sacrifice everything for such noble cause. We shall celebrate him until the end of times. Aaron Bushnell set himself on fire to protest this genocide, giving everything away for people he never personally knew and never will. We shall celebrate him until the end of times. And you tell me she can't protest because "party cohesion" or some shit? What does she even fear, to be expelled from the pro-Genocide Party? Is that too much of a price to pay? I would wear that proudly as a badge of honor.
Feels like we're reaching a History defining moment. History called, she wants to know where everyone stands. They didn't skip the call, they answered, but instead of choosing the way of peace, dialogue and humanism (the very least you could do) which could have prevented so much pain and misery, they answered and insisted with the way of destruction, of annihilation, of barbarism, so typical of western culture. But History is wise, and she will remember. When their time comes, which will be our time, we too have to remember what they said and what they have done in such moments, memory is important, without there will be no proper Justice.
Organize. Agitate. Don't let them win. Reject Doomerism. Remember who you are fighting for.
- Because, after all, we must resign ourselves to the inevitable and say to ourselves, once and for all, that the bourgeoisie is condemned to become every day more snarling, more openly ferocious, more shameless, more summarily barbarous; that it is an implacable law that every decadent class finds itself turned into a receptacle into which there flow all the dirty waters of history; that it is a universal law that before it disappears, every class must first disgrace itself completely, on all fronts, and that it is with their heads buried in the dunghill that dying societies utter their swan songs.

  Césaire was a powerful writer. His "Discourse on Colonialism" is a must read for everyone.
- I'd be fine with shutting up and slightly improving other things, it ultimately doesn't matter one way or the other, still better than 99% of them. But whitewashing it? That's active support, fuck the high horse the rides on.
