I hope Labour learns from this and starts leaning hard into the culture war. More trans rights please!

Nobody wants to let Dutton be another Trump

Trump is dismantling the US government so his billionaire friends can buy it. He's not building a global populist movement, he's siezed power and he's using it for petty, selfish ends. The whole world can see it plainly

The rise of fascism in the US may have heralded worldwide rises in conservativism for a time, but now that Trump has absolute power, he's not bothering to hide his intentions. It's swung back the other way, now the US is making the world less fascist

Fascism's win condition is always its own destruction. It's a death cult. It can't win worldwide because it promotes selfish leaders who sabotage the movement for personal enrichment

It's gonna be okay, everyone

You don't have to be grownup to be a princess. In fact, if you were a princess in the middle ages, you didn't even have to be grown up to be in an arranged marriage designed to make your parents richer. Your body could be sold at any age.

Step 1: raise reality consciousness of the working class
Step 2: mutual aid and practice magic
Step 3: communist revolution
Step 4: as a communist society, develop further technologies of mind and machine to further unchain our perceptions

Archimedes said "give me a lever long enough and a fulcrum on which to balance it, and I shall move the earth". I believe science will give us ever more power over our experiences. I already use the astral plane to be Myself, we need to increase access to magical technology and perform more research.

He's a god. An evil one. Humanity creates gods when they worship ideas. Donald Trump isn't a man, he's an idea, festering in the minds of millions of people. His power comes from that belief and reverence. His followers commit all these crimes in his name, and THAT is what it means to be a god.

Yes, much in the same way that syndicalism or mutualism are anarchism with extra steps. Soulists are anarchists who are a little more open minded, and willing to challenge a couple more hierarchies. Realism, the belief in an objective universe, is the root of all conservativism, and must be destroyed in order to reach liberation.

This is true, and this is false - source: me?”

No, I don't have the expertise in indigenous metaphysics to write that dialogue. It was written by James Cross after many long conversations we had about soulism and Tiwi beliefs.

Soulism, put simply, is the theory that hierarchy is bad, and reality is a hierarchy we have the ability to abolish. You can read My manifesto on soulism at http://soulism.net/

As to why I made this comic? If you go to the polcompball wiki page on soulism, you'll see a disclaimer stating that soulism is fictional. The soulist community has had many arguments with the wiki's admin team about this label. Today, this comic suddenly came to Me, and I just had to draw it. I thought I might post it somewhere on Lemmy. Blahaj's soulism community was deleted by the admins, and this was the next best place. I do wish I'd been able to post it to a Lemmy community where the background required to fully appreciate the meme was more normalised, but such communities seem not to last very long. Last year I attempted to create lemmy.soulism.net, but I ran into problems with the cost of VPSes.

When I see a little girl getting excited about Disney princesses and wanting to be one, I see a child being sexually groomed. It's disgusting and it needs to stop. It's abusive. We shouldn't be exposing children to these kinds of messaging. We need to be aware of what our words mean, so we can use them wisely.

Reality is bad. Go to http://soulism.net/ to read the antirealist manifesto

 

While I am not personally an atheist, this was the only religion-centered community I could find to post this article, and surely we polytheists and atheists can find a united purpose in condemning monotheistic bias.
