so, our guy here is not a straight up fascist this time.

Never give yourself a nickname. It cannot look cool. If he completely succeeded, this manifesto would still hurt his cause. Luigi didn’t call himself Saint Luigi so it sticks instead of coming off as narcissistic.

The ruling interests want you labeled, filed, and indexed from the moment you’re born. They give you a name for their ledgers, their police files, and their tax rolls. But when you name yourself, you’re engaging in a revolutionary act of self-definition!
Why should the bureaucratic apparatus have a monopoly on your identity? By seizing the “means of nomenclature,” you’re asserting your own sovereignty against the crushing weight of institutional tradition. It’s a grassroots rejection of the pre-packaged persona. You’re saying: “I am not your data point!” It’s the ultimate democratic gesture—defining yourself on your own terms!

Lowkey how it actually feels being trans and giving urself ur own name

You can give yourself a legal name and a nom de guerre, but not a nickname unless it’s ironic or adopting a professional one that already exists. Every doctor and paramedic can call themselves Doc and that’s acceptable.

God I wish I could tell the story of my fight name at my MMA gym and how it got turned on its head. I got dropped by a liver shot, people laughed, and the coach changed my name to be embarrassing.
The nickname itself is still cool to people who weren’t there and the story of it getting ruined still makes people I find attractive laugh.
Any MMA fan knows about The Crying Vomiter.
Motherfuckers will write their own manifesto when we have a perfectly good manifesto at home
Like, if I was an Iranian agent, instead of an American citizen, I could have brought a damn Ma Deuce in here and no one would have noticed shit.
It might seem silly what I’m bout to say: you would not have gotten 1/3 as far as you did (racism)
Let’s be real, a Browning M2 would have to be carried by some guy who’s at least 6’5" named something like Ox or Dozer
This guy ain’t that
I think we got our wires crossed. I was alluding to racism
Ah, my inner gun nut spoke out over my inner sociologist
This is what happens when I take edibles to fight the Sunday Scaries
I also totally didn’t elaborate at all which is poor authorship on my part.
sorry about the Sunday ScariesS’all good, bout to boot up some Helldivers and play with my partner
when you put more effort into the manifesto than the actual deed
While I’m discussing this, I’ll also go over my expected rules of engagement (probably in a terrible format, but I’m not military so too bad.)
Administration officials (not including Mr. Patel): they are targets, prioritized from highest-ranking to lowest
Wait it gets funnier:
Objection 1: As a Christian, you should turn the other cheek.
Rebuttal: Turning the other cheek is for when you yourself are oppressed.
Got it, so activism is for privileged people only 😆
That’s not what that part means. The message there is actually good.
turning the other cheek is not a good message
He’s literally saying people shouldn’t turn the other cheek. Did you even read it?
He’s saying privileged people shouldn’t turn the other cheek, and that oppressed people should turn the other cheek for some reason. That’s what I’m focusing on.
No, he’s very obviously not saying that, as it completely contradicts the rest of what he’s saying. Instead of assuming that what someone says is nonsensical, perhaps you should try for 3 seconds to think of a different interpretation.
That’s what I’m focusing on.
Yeah, I noticed because of the way you ignored the rest.

Okay fine, I’m really not interested in getting into an argument over this point.
Nah it’s kinda mediocre, especially for a manifesto. Like if he was just speaking off the cuff I wouldn’t call him on this.
(CW: rape mention)
Objection 1: As a Christian, you should turn the other cheek.
Rebuttal: Turning the other cheek is for when you yourself are oppressed. I’m not the person raped in a detention camp. I’m not the fisherman executed without trial. I’m not a schoolkid blown up or a child starved or a teenage girl abused by the many criminals in this administration.
Turning the other cheek when someone else is oppressed is not Christian behavior; it is complicity in the oppressor’s crimes.
Actually, if you are being oppressed, turning the other cheek is usually a suboptimal option. It’s cool that he’s doing…the bare minimum?..of saying “privileged people shouldn’t be complicit in the oppressor’s crimes”, but IMO this manifesto is centrist learned helplessness at its finest.
Edit: turned down the heat, I’m critiquing the manifesto, not yelling at anyone.
I don’t think it’s bad to be like “people who are in a privileged position compared to the oppressed are more morally weighted to stop oppression”. It’s not a contradiction to say the oppressed would know better what to do about oppression, but on the question of acting upon it it’s easier to actually do shit about when you’re not already crushed by whatever social force.

I did see your comment shortly after I posted mine, but due to federation you caught it just before it got deleted.

Good to know, I might have to bug the Nexus community about that.
Guy posts a manifesto and the news commenters as usual are unable to actually refute any of it.
