Dead Domain is dumb even for trannies. Censoring communism Animal farm makes it rightwing. We shouldn’t make stories about AI anymore.

Why would censoring Communism make a movie right wing?

From what I can tell, the main issue with Animal Farm is that it doesn't understand the source material and tries to akwardly adapt it to current day when it was written in a very specific time.

And it's not like it's even anti-Communism in some kind of general sense. It's very specific with many characters being direct allegories to actual historical people.

They went on a rather intense rant on how trans people aren't valid. That they're just men trying to gain power over women or perverts, trying to invade womens spaces. That They're best case: mentally ill and delusional and don't deserve to be called women.

Can't say I'm into doxing, but I wish I knew who the therapist was; they're seemingly one of the few with their head screwed on right, and thus probably one of the only therapists out there who's actually worth seeing.

Though, that's assuming this is a true story, of course, and not just another persecution porn fanfic, which we know trannies are wont to write.

I am just unsure of what to do now. I was looking for therapy for such an enormous amount of time, this was the only regular spot I could find at all and now we have this issue. I don't want to have to go through the process of uncertainty and constant search again. But I am not going to therapy just to hide myself to not upset someone.
I think there might be the possibility of me changing her mind, but I don't know if any attempt here could actually do something. Especially since that would be another project to add to an already big to-do list for me.

Imagine being so retarded that you'd be willing to pay someone money (and probably no small amount, at that) on a weekly/bi-weekly basis, just for the opportunity to maybe change their mind about something.

As I said, I wholeheartedly approve of this based therapist, and they're probably one of the alarmingly few who wouldn't send this guy down a path of permanent medicalization and surgical deformation. But if you really, really didn't like a therapist, why in the world would you keep paying to see them?

And we really only associate Animal Farm with anti-communism because the original animated film was funded by the CIA during the height of the Cold War. Orwell was a socialist who was against both fascism and authoritarian communism so the original book (and 1984 for that matter) were mainly anti-authoritarian in general.

Actually anyone remotely literate could see it.

Napoleon = Stalin
Snowball = Trotsky
Squealer = Molotov

And some are more general. For instance, Boxer (the horse) represents the proletariat who the revolution was supposed to benefit.

It's not like it's particularly subtle.

Not really hard to believe, the bar is incredibly low. We've had some mind-boggling cranks and retards in Parliament in recent years. Anyway:

The answer to your question is right there in your screenshot Zarah, you dozy mare. You take part in pro-terrorist rallies.

Orwell was a socialist, his specific beef was with Stalinism. Also he fought in the Spanish Civil War, so he did more to fight fascism than all of Reddit put together.

A whole thread full of essays about how pure evil Rowling is, worse than Lovecraft apparently.
Click to expand...
I’m going to take issue with the suggestion that Lovecraft’s work isn’t harmful. Whereas Rowling’s anti-trans stance never shows up in her books, Lovecraft’s racism is a repeated and often explicit theme in his stories. If you think the Potter books are harmful, then you must accept the same of Lovecraft, whether dead or alive.

I would imagine that many of these “But Lovecraft is okay” people own a Cthulhu plushie but have never cracked his books open.

There are people in that thread who are saying "At least Lovecraft was getting better" before he died, because being a super racist is now more acceptable than transphobia.

I'd love to make one of these people read "Medusa's Coil," which concludes with this:
It would be too hideous if they knew that the one-time heiress of Riverside, the accursed gorgon or lamia whose hateful crinkly coil of serpent-hair must even now be brooding and twining vampirically around an artist's skeleton in a lime-packed grave beneath a charred foundation, . . . for, though in deceitfully slight proportion, Marceline was a negress.

I'm just waiting for them to start the same rehabilitation for Hitler. After all, the German reich often let trannies keep their cross-dressing licenses for the duration of the war.
 
Alright, allow me a bit of horrorsperging.

The appeal of Lovecraft and Rowling (I like reading both) is entirely different. Lovecraft wrote what I would call "absolute horror". There is no redemption, safety, protection whatever in his tales. The narrator is usually about to die or go mad by the end, or already has done. You generally feel sorry for him but only in the sense that you wouldn't want to be in his shoes, there is not much empathy. This is the literary equivalent of a shot of absinthe, you're just left thinking "oh wow oh fuck". You don't need to like the guy who writes this and in fact you can't imagine someone who is not a sick puppy writing this stuff. Regarding the racism specifically, while he describes Blacks and Asians/Australasians in toe-curling terms (I'm aware very few Farmers care about this obv.) even Italians and Poles in New England are described as superstitious primitives and e.g. in The Dunwich Horror the inhabitants of Dunwich are inbred, incestuous and degenerated descendants of WASP settlers who nearly cause the end of the world. The guy just really didn't like anybody, people repulsed him, life repulsed him. It's part of the package. If you found out Lovecraft once kicked a puppy, you'd just shrug and think "yup, that figures".

Obviously Rowling offers the polar opposite of that. While her HP books are madly more violent and disturbing than people that haven't read them usually suspect, they are comforting and deeply moral. Characters on the page are practically "turning to camera" to deliver lessons, e.g. lying is generally a bad idea, you have to stand up for yourself even against your friends, don't let fear consume you etc... Obviously she is being completely true to these lessons, but this now clashes with the quasi-religious view of the world TRAs have built. No wonder it breaks their brain to find her standing against them. It means they are the bad guys and they can't accept that! Hence the frantic efforts to burn down the whole thing by hallucinating racism and other flaws in the books.

This isn't true. Lovecraft had many friends and mentored famous authors. He wrote thousands (!) of letters to his friends and travelled regularily.

However, both of his parents became so mentally ill that they were thrown into an asylum and he was mentally ill too. He also was a product of the times he was born into. Society was very racist back then.

Actually, he loved animals, especially cats.

Nobody who ever interacted with him (including his Jewish ex-wife) had anything bad to say about him.

This isn't really unusual in my experience. Misanthropes are, by and large, generally pretty nice people.

Anyone who goes on and on about how much they love humanity is usually a gigantic piece of shit.

She didn't particularly like it when he went off on one about the Jews in her presence, but all things considered that seems reasonable enough. She also asserted he was surprisingly good in bed, fact fans.

You’d think people who like to moralize about genocide would understand that chants such as “legalize the [insert name of a specific campaign to terrorize and destroy a whole country , its dominant ethnic group, and anyone who allies with them by implication here]” sends a bit of a mixed message.

Amazing that western Muslims are so accustomed to getting zero pushback on their public displays of irrational tribal bloodlust that they can’t comprehend being called out on their hypocrisy. I guess they don’t need good PR in a country as cucked as the UK.

I'm sure she wasn't unique among his Jewish friends who had to roll their eyes constantly at his bullshit. I just imagine so many of them saying something like "you realize I'M Jewish right?"
