I'm pretty sure that Nepenthe literally believes that human history was a peaceful agrarian communal existence before Adam Smith invented capitalism and the whites imposed it on the planet.

I’m not so sure Nephente can survive an Apocalypse when her only abilities are drawing(?) and capoeira. Even the most benign post apocalyptic commune will probably have little patience for a neurotic confrontational person that blatantly abuses any little power she has.

No, see, you simply intentionally destroy all the institutions of society and then people are simply good forever thanks to being freed from their corrupting influence.

Ultimately, the point is that this type of fiction inadvertently upholds very myopic viewpoints that what we have now is not only the best that we have, despite the infinite harm it continually wreaks upon minorities in the North and the Global South as a whole, but that we actually need these systems- many of which were invented and perpetuated by white people without consent of indigenous groups the world over- to be in place for the actual survival of humanity itself. The author is simply rejecting this notion.

Quote from: Nepenthe
One way to gamify friction of a post-apocalyptic world that isn't steeped in abject, grey misery would be the defense of a minority-led commune from the spectre of colonizing groups trying to reimpose older systems of economics and political establishment on a people that are obviously fine without it. Mother 3 is actually a good example of this, where a town that was idyllic, peaceful, and even lacked money gets fucked up and irrevocably changed in part due to the encroachment of capitalism. Or just give my boy Lucio a story campaign in Overwatch. His themes also fit what I'd like to see more of.
This would be pretty ahistorical though. Communities like this have always failed, not because of outside pressure but because they just don't work (think of the hippy communes fron the 60s).

Best case scenario is that the community just disbands and everyone goes their seperate ways; worst case - which is what happens when a whole country tries this shit - is mass starvation and brutal repression. The worst days of the USSR and China must have felt like apocalypses for the people who lived through them.
It's only ahistorical if your history only starts with the Industrial Revolution and doesn't include non-white folks. Humans in general have lived outside of the confines of our current system for exponentially longer than we have, and in empires that lasted significantly longer than the US's 200+ odd years. The idea that this is the only way to live to me is nonsense.

Maybe that's why she made Royalan come back? He would be able to buy her a LOT of time given how much food he'd yield.

I mean what about before western civilization was a thing? Did cruelty not exist before then?
The level of industrialized cruelty we see on the scales of today did not actually exist back then, no. Like, yes. Slavery existed. What they won't tell you is that the Transatlantic Slave Trade was the first time in recorded history that one group of people standardized and institutionalized the operation the act of kidnapping people for the purposes of conducting business upon which an entire nation was built, to the point that millions of people were in bondage and millions more died just in the process of being enslaved. Slaves were, ultimately, the first type of capital in our system, and it was such to a factory farm degree that this is mainly where the idea of a "white identity" was really solidified. People needed something to justify what they were witnessing, and what better way to do so than to dehumanize the Africans and Indigenous folks being subjected to it by drilling it into your head that you were better than them anyway?

Like, no this shit isn't normal lol.
This must be true since Nepenthe doesn't believe things that are wrong. Especially not things that are blatantly wrong.

spoiler (click to show/hide)
Imagine thinking that capital didn't exist until the Portuguese popped down to Africa and joined in the pre-existing transcontinental slave trade there that had already done things like shift millions of Africans into Muslim hands.

It's like when every time I watch a Jurassic Park movie; I have a hard time wrapping my head around how fucking bloodthirsty every carnivorous dinosaur in the series is when you can just look at YouTube to see how often extant carnivores just kinda leave humans the fuck alone. And yeah, I know it's entertainment, and homicidal dinosaurs are fun to watch just as it's fun to watch humans try and survive a collapse of civilization that is wrought with an asshole with a gun around every corner. But these types of tropes do help self-perpetuate harmful and paralyzing beliefs about the current state of things, even if it's not directly intended.

 :crowdlaff

This is what those dullards on the likes of Gaf are missing. The comedic rantings of an unhinged pseud who has in all seriousness compared the fictional scenario of dinosaurs munching on humans to the behaviour of real life carnivores that she's seen on YouTube.

Nephente Apocalypse FanFic:

https://www.resetera.com/threads/your-apocalypse-is-bad-and-wrong-and-i-would-know-a-jamaicans-critique-of-western-post-apocalyptic-game-settings.575245/

I saw this on twitter the other day and contemplated posting it here, but am glad I waited until we had the era reactions.

The ultimate premise (of the article) is fundamentally flawed, as it extrapolates how people behaved after a localised natural disaster in Jamaica to how a post apocalypse society is portrayed in fiction to extrapolate 'skinfolk be like this, but yts be like this' and thats why speculative fiction is like it is.
When you don't even have to look very far to find counter examples of 'skinfolk' fucking not being 'kinfolk' when confronted with scarcity and disaster, or of YTs helping out communities hit with a localised emergency.

There's some kind of adjective for people who ascribe different levels of humanity to other people based purely on the colour of their skin, I wonder what it is.

Highlighting the use of correct pronouns in this case is odd because it seems to imply trans and non-binary identities being valid is contingent on good behaviour.

Surely respecting someones pronoun preference is - as implied by the term - a matter of respect, and isn't choking (multiple) bitches out a matter that you can fairly say deserves a loss of respect?

Speaking of the Bitch-Eating-Crackers-Thread-OT;

Oh also here's her comparing trans people and the support of trans women by saying trans women are women to eastern block Soviet erafascist oppressive communist enforced propaganda

She's literally saying people saying trans women are women are doing so due to authoritian coercion akin to that of Soviet States demanding signs be placed or else


This is psycho shit

Here's the thread thats salting dreadfully online, avid twitter user and professional shelf stacker incelchiefs chips: please note the use of quotation marks at the very start, and the attribution at the end, this means something.

Quote
"The manager of a fruit and vegetable shop places in his window, among the onions and carrots, the slogan: ‘Workers of the World, Unite!’ Why does he do it?...Is he genuinely enthusiastic about the idea of unity among the workers of the world?

Is his enthusiasm so great that he feels an irrepressible impulse to acquaint the public with his ideals? Has he really given more than a moment’s thought to how such a unification might occur and what it would mean?

That poster was delivered to our greengrocer from the enterprise headquarters along with the onions and carrots. He put them all into the window simply... because everyone does it, and because that is the way it has to be.

If he were to refuse, there could be trouble. He could be reproached for not having the proper ‘decoration’ in his window; someone might even accuse him of disloyalty. He does it because these things must be done if one is to get along in life.

...The slogan is really a sign, and as such it contains a subliminal but very definite message... ‘I, the greengrocer XY, live here and I know what I must do. I behave in the manner expected of me... I am obedient and therefore I have the right to be left in peace.’

...if the greengrocer had been instructed to display the slogan, ‘I am afraid and therefore unquestioningly obedient’, he would not be nearly as indifferent to its semantics, even though the statement would reflect the truth.

The greengrocer would be embarrassed and ashamed to put such an unequivocal statement of his own degradation... To overcome this complication, his expression of loyalty must take the form of a sign...

It must allow the greengrocer to say, ‘What’s wrong with the workers of the world uniting?’ Thus the sign helps the greengrocer to conceal from himself the low foundations of his obedience... It hides them behind the façade of something high... that something is ideology.

Ideology is a specious way of relating to the world. It offers human beings the illusion of an identity, of dignity, and of morality while making it easier for them to part with them.

...it enables people to deceive their conscience and conceal their true position and their inglorious modus vivendi, both from the world and from themselves. It is an excuse that everyone can use, from the greengrocer, who conceals his fear of losing his job...

... to the highest functionary... Individuals need not believe all these mystifications, but they must behave as though they did, or they must at least tolerate them in silence, or get along well with those who work with them.

For this reason, however, they must live within a lie. They need not accept the lie. It is enough for them to have accepted their life with it and in it."

Václav Havel, The Power of the Powerless, 1978

also I am reminded that incelchief thinks that Orwells Politics & the English Language is a how-to guide for lieing

She knows she is courting right-wing bigots, misogynists, racists, homophobes, etc... in her little crusade, and it's becoming more and more apparent with her support of specific people and groups that she harbours some of their specific bigoted views too.

All NepNep does is bitch bitch bitch, but through her ceaseless criticism can never offer any even remotely concrete alternatives or ideas.

“ACAB and racists!”
What should we replace them with?
“Non-Cops!”
 :yeshrug

“Industrialism and white capitalism are recent and you need to look further back!”
You mean to the constant warring in Europe and Africa?
“No past the last century!”
  :snoop

“Why are post apocalyptic scenarios so bleak? That’s just a yt contrivance!”
What apocalypse would only affect whites and yt dominant civilization?
“You’re showing your privilege again!”
 :mindblown

I applaud the hopefulness behind the hopepunk stuff, but her interpretation is a bit… oh what’s that word… racist?

I'm not blaming everything on an illness, but his behaviour on the flash set and this string of attacks on women says a lot

This horrific transphobic crime has gone unnoticed and unpunished for over 8 hours.  At least 1 prominent trans poster has posted in the thread since this heinous act was perpetrated upon Ezra Miller and yet still no one has called it out.  On behalf of all alphabet people we must not let this stand!  One free Dunkin’ Donuts gift card to the mod who bans this filth.

It has now been 24 hours and this post still goes unpunished.  So many warnings were handed out to fix pronoun use but this poster has gone unwarned.  I wonder if this is a mod sock puppet account or just a user with high level protection from any consequences normal users would face for this disgusting act of transphobia.  Trans summit 2 when?

Most post-apocalyptic fiction is set in the immediate aftermath of an cataclysmic event, where people used to working in offices and buying food from grocery stores are confronted with a complete collapse of the society they knew. Of course things are going to be shitty for a while.  It's not like you just flip off the capitalism switch and suddenly BIPOCs are going to be living in NeoTulsa next week. Eventually we might figure out a better way of living, but I imagine things would be pretty fucked for at least a generation or two.

At very least Congress should ask him to testify so he can explain why he's too broke to pay taxes on his stock but simultaneously can produce 50bil in financing for whim purchases.

I'm not blaming everything on an illness, but his behaviour on the flash set and this string of attacks on women says a lot

This horrific transphobic crime has gone unnoticed and unpunished for over 8 hours.  At least 1 prominent trans poster has posted in the thread since this heinous act was perpetrated upon Ezra Miller and yet still no one has called it out.  On behalf of all alphabet people we must not let this stand!  One free Dunkin’ Donuts gift card to the mod who bans this filth.

It has now been 24 hours and this post still goes unpunished.  So many warnings were handed out to fix pronoun use but this poster has gone unwarned.  I wonder if this is a mod sock puppet account or just a user with high level protection from any consequences normal users would face for this disgusting act of transphobia.  Trans summit 2 when?
They're banned now but not by that transphobic post

A lot of shit that Nephente enjoys (furries, Overwatch, bitching openly about societal norms) have been only possible in this time frame of human story. Modern Society didn’t make you get debt indentured for years for a Nissan.

I literally remember a time when you were supposed to go outside and swing a stick around

or play completely abstract domino or card games

or read the boxcar children and laugh uproariously about how benny is hungry again oh you ravenous child

Random violent abusers-

Celebrity Voilent abusers-
Era- (Respectfully with correct pronouns) Perhaps they should be allowed to reflect on their mental health and seek help first. Let’s not judge them.

Celebrity worship syndrome is real. Casual dismissal of misogyny is very real. Smh.

Edit- typos.

Highlighting the use of correct pronouns in this case is odd because it seems to imply trans and non-binary identities being valid is contingent on good behaviour.
Absolutely not. I just take umbrage to the generalized reverence celebs enjoy here ( with presumed mental illness as first line of defense for all violent acts ) while ignoring the plight of victims who have less privilege, money and PR to fight back.

I used pronouns to highlight the default level of respect(and background knowledge) celebs enjoy as opposed to their victims.

Misgendering criminals as an insult is lowbrow and puerile. That would be stooping to neogaf/4chan standards. We can maybe start with not make excuses for them and just call out slapping and throwing chairs for the abuse of privilege it is.

If the apocalypse comes tomorrow, Neopet be the first one to be eaten by the others who can't hunt, farm, or feed themselves if it doesn't come in a packet from the supermarket.

Maybe that's why she made Royalan come back? He would be able to buy her a LOT of time given how much food he'd yield.

Considering the theme connecting the tweets, I do have a guess.

What's more mysterious to me is why this person has three posts on their account but this appears to be their only searchable post. Would that mean that they have more PMs than posts?

EDIT: Their postcount is increasing but this is still the only searchable one. Maybe I just have a thread on ignore?

uh oh a mod logged into the wrong alt account

At some point you should just bow out. Probably once you are older than like... I dunno 65 tops. We don't need out of touch people running the country and making critical decisions about a future they won't even be alive for.

It shouldn't be a life time job that you just stay in forever.

There has been an anti aclu sentiment on there for a while tbf, the whole defending the principle not the person thing (and distaste for free speech itself) goes against their beliefs :trumps

Y'all have cancelled people for much less on here, but yes now they're just "stupid texts". I think it's absolutely terrible what Amber has done to him, but it does not change my opinion of him. I don't think anyone in the right mind would say "let's drown her before we burn her I will fuck her burnt corpse afterwards to make sure she's dead", but whatever. I think he needs help and so does Amber. Anyway i'm outta here, there's clearly only one allowed opinion on here.

Abuse can also be done verbally and Johnny Depp has clearly done that.

Also looking at some of his texts makes me wonder how anyone can defend him, even if he's the victim in this case. He seems like a garbage human being himself. The comments he made about Amber are socipoathic.

Sick both sides take bro. It’s almost like he needed somewhere to vent what was happening to him. Clearly some texts are worse than cutting off part of a finger and putting out cigarettes on his skin.

Literally cannot wrap their minds around a straight white guy being a victim of abuse. Pathetic.
