Being a bodyless head with a freak long tongue is not only okay—it can be an exciting opportunity

  • Oh, well that exists! I forgot about that part of your post.

    Marxist psychotherapists use Lacanian psychoanalysis to encourage class consciousness, and I suppose the "disorder" they're treating in this case is referred to as "interpellation."

    As an anarchist, I personally have some pretty strong (negative) feelings and opinions about this modality, but it sounds like what you're looking for


    Edit: I just remembered we're in an anarchism comm lol

    Here's why I don't like it (copied and pasted from something I wrote before):

    The focus on dense theoretical frameworks and language/symbolic structures as mediators of subjectivity tends to obscure rather than clarify real mechanisms of power and oppression as experienced by individuals, alienating clients who urgently need practical tools for self-determination and mutual aid within oppressive systems.

    More importantly, it seems to inherently reproduce hierarchical, institutionalized patterns within therapy itself, where the therapist positions themselves as an expert interpreter of ideology, rather than facilitating liberatory, horizontal therapeutic relationships.

    As practiced within Marxist-influenced circles (as seen on r/leftistpsychotherapists) it appears to be less about empowering individuals or communities, and more about intellectualizing oppression in ways that ultimately sustain elitism and social control mechanisms rather than dismantling them.


    Granted, I'm in a position where the only people coming to me for therapy are already radicalized. If I worked with libs/fascists, I might be motivated to find a way to implement Lacanian psychoanalysis in a way that feels less elitist

    Edit 2: I'm embarrassed to say I never bothered to look into this from the other side and lowkey just assumed I was alone in this. Check this out! https://theanarchistlibrary.org/library/saul-newman-anarchism-and-psychoanalysis#toc3

  • My partner uses iPhone and got malware from this app

  • Yeah I'm an anarcho-communist now, and I agree with you about almost everything you've said in this comment. However, the changes she made directly resulted in me loosing weight, and the only way to counteract that (for me as an individual) was by spending more money.

    • School lunch in 2011 had enough calories for me to maintain my weight
    • School lunch post 2012 did not have enough calories for me to maintain my weight
    • I was underweight until I got a job in 2013 and could buy extra food

    Yes, there are broader systemic issues, but I'm allowed to be mad about the direct, tangible cause of this specific thing I struggled with. I understand that I was collateral damage for something that was mostly a good thing, but the negative way it impacted me is real and my feelings about it are valid

    Edit: The calorie limit became 650, from what I read, and I guarantee my school's lunches were significantly below that post 2012- probably 450 max

  • I was so pissed at Michelle Obama for fucking up school lunches. I was already barely maintaining my weight, and then suddenly all the food on campus was practically calorieless and I quickly became underweight

  • It sounds like what you wanted your message to be is that people are closer to being homeless than to being a millionaire? You might need to reread your meme, because that's not what the edit makes it say

  • Thank you for creating test content!

    I really liked this a lot and am excited to see more. Idk about the alt text stuff, but I really enjoyed the visual format you chose

    Edit: Also if the first line wasn't clear enough, I think funhole seems like a perfectly fitting home for this content
