Lavenderism

Once upon a time, there was a young boy living in rural China with his grandmother and older brother, since his parents were killed at the hands of imperialists during the war. He lived with them until one day, his brother went missing in Changbai forest, and when he came back he had orange hair, only craved meat, and he kept talking about a fox with an emerald in its mouth. He woke up in the middle of the night to hear his older brother making noise, and when looking, he was fully dressed and about to sneak out. He said to his younger brother that he must go into the forest to live the life he wants, but can never return or tell the truth about where he is going.

In the morning when the boy told his grandmother about his brother, she was shocked. She said that he has been chosen by the fox woman, who has taken him to the forest to live with her in the world of spirits and gods. She told him never to speak about it again, and to only say that his brother ran away, since they were unable to ever speak about the place he has gone.

As he got older, he kept feeling pulled towards the forest, and eventually saw a woman in fancy robes and orange hair beckoning him towards the trees at night. He ran after her into the dark forest, and lanterns suddenly appeared around him. He had entered the world of foxes, where his brother was waiting. He handed him a green stone, and upon touching it he was also turned into a humanoid fox.

Once upon a time, the god of the moon focused his attention on a man that was swimming in a lake at the edge of the world. The moon’s energy turned the man pale with white hair, and he became the first magician in the entire world. His third eye opened and he was able to see spirits and ghosts, but not all of them were good. He was visited by octopus spirits, peacocks, parakeets, baboons and the ghost of Joseph Stalin. The spirit guides gave him a sense of peace and also a connection to spirituality, but he was also trolled by evil spirits and ghosts, who played mean tricks on him and caused him to behave in ways that were illogical and went against his best interests. He eventually fell from the lake off of a waterfall and began falling into space, and then he talked to the cat goddess, dogs, and other animals such as axolotls which gave him a book of sacred information. He could not read as letters were not invented yet, and so he tore the pages from the book and ate them. They tasted like frosting which caused him to quickly devour the entire sacred book, and this caused all of humanity to have a connection to the teachings of spirituality. However, the magician’s mental imbalance caused people to behave in strange and erratic ways, so spirituality came with mental illness and lunacy.

If you call upon the shark spirit, you can begin to grow long and sharp teeth like knives. It is not recommended to shave your teeth to sharpen them because this causes sensitivity and decay, but it is better to add on to your teeth as the gods will do.

With your magic, make a shrine of shark teeth and call out to the shark spirit and ask him for sharpened teeth. Your teeth will grow and then you will have sharp points, but not sharp enough to cut your tongue, lips, or inner mouth easily. This will allow you to have cool pretty teeth and also eat meat. It will also help with cavities and things.

Once upon a time, there was a large evil tentacle monster off the coast of Haiti. It was large and would smash buildings on the coast and kidnap people by grabbing them and dragging them into the sea. The people were terrorized by the monster until one brave alcoholic sailor dared to sail into the ocean and attempt to kill it with fishing spears and harpoons. He sailed out and tried to bring it on his ship, but the Lovecraftian monster was too large and could not be brought into the ship. His boat was destroyed and many of his men died or were eaten by the monster, but he went to shore and was able to make a new plan.

He made harpoons and tied rope onto them, and when the monster revealed its tentacles by slamming them onto the shore he stuck them with metal fishing spears and pulled them onto the land. This made him able to gather more men to pull the beast, and he eventually caused the monster to become beached and die, with everyone taking turns cutting into its flesh and eating it, with the Drowned God absorbing it's energy to achieve godhood.

The Drowned God appears as a skeleton with horns, and a fishing spear. Sometimes his bones are made from blue gems, blue wood, or driftwood. His bones can even appear to be made of shell fossils or other marine materials.

A rightist talking point against gender identity is that only two genders exist. Class enemies come to Pride or other events meant to promote inclusion to ask thinly veiled manipulative questions like “How many genders are there” to try and win points with other reactionaries. There is so much to unpack that many people are not prepared for when they are asked at these events randomly, so I think I should put the issue to rest about how many genders exist.

Obviously most living things tend to fall into one of the two biological sexes at birth, and gender is based off of roles and cultural associations that are given to each of these sexes, usually to divide labor and assign tasks of childcare or domestic work to one sex or the other, with most favoring women to care for children due to their ability to multitask. When rightists say there are only two genders, this assumes that every person and every society in the world has had the same binary ideas of gender without variation, or that third genders have never existed or are somehow invalid.

Many arguments against non-binary genders existing independently from male or female come from theological arguments and as such can be discarded. Many societies across the world have independently developed unique gender identities that fall outside of conventional male and female genders that were created in the west to fit into European family structure. The Indian subcontinent has a gender known as Hijra which comes from Hinduism and is deeply connected to a goddess that is said to choose them at birth. Native American societies had a gender known as the two-spirit.

Even besides this, we have to keep in mind that because ideas about gender and gender roles are social constructs and vary from society to society, there are at least two genders for every culture that assigned different roles to them. This is not even counting every individual person’s perceptions or ideas about gender which can be different from every other person’s conception of it. Ideas we have about gender can even change with age, with some things being considered masculine at younger ages that later become considered feminine at later life stages. Gender is almost like a religion in the way that personal interpretation of it is the basis of everyone’s involvement in it regardless of how much the society tries to make everyone’s understanding conform to ideals.

However, we don’t even need to go deeply into everyone’s minds to see where the idea of gender becomes muddy. Different people have different amounts of estrogen and testosterone, and since these are characteristics of gender, does having different amounts of them make some more or less feminine and/or masculine? Some people seem to think so as athletes have been accused of being transgender for having naturally higher levels of testosterone, with rightists claiming it gives the woman an unfair advantage in sports. I will not get into that situation here because I can only deal with one disaster at a time, but it shows just how the entire worldview reactionaries have created does not conform to any science or even practicality. Class enemies operate as a hate group and it’s obvious to anyone who does even the most basic research into their ideas.

The next time someone shows up to Pride and asks you how many genders there are, the correct answer is that there are even more genders than people, as every person has their ideas of what it means to be masculine, feminine, or non-binary even if they are based on the same archetypes. Just like other ideas, personal interpretation is so varied that it’s unlikely for any two people to think the same thing.

The idea of reforming capitalism from a left-wing perspective would be great if it would provide positive results. In reality, any person who really tries to achieve this without force or at least very clandestine methods will be assassinated. I see socialist parties joining forces with major parties that exist under capitalism, and I can’t help but think they are not operating from the same perspective as orthodox Marxism-Leninism. Social democratic groups might make some great changes or some great connections with like-minded individuals, but they will never put their hands deep in the ground and remove the foundations of the capitalist system at the root.

If you’re an anarchist or a social democrat just seeking to make the western world more liveable for yourself, your organization will work for the purpose that you want it to work for.If you are a third-worldist communist who wants to end slavery in the world, destroy the economic systems that allow poverty and exploitation to exist, electoral politics is never going to cut it.

I am not trying to lean into adventurism or tell people to do something I would not do. However, there are more ways to influence society than activism. media collectives and propaganda are effective, as shown by the shutdown of various revolutionary media organizations such as Redfish. Rightists are using these tactics without even being factually correct, and it’s gotten so bad for the government that even liberals have made it a priority to combat fake news.

If enough people want to end capitalism, they can’t kill everyone and they lose. It’s about winning over enough people to make sure that you cannot just be assassinated to keep the regime in power. The ruling party knows this though and it’s why they have created a society of apathetic, debt-ridden, depressed and hedonistic people that will never be able to challenge them politically. A good way to test if you truly are revolutionary is to see how the establishment reacts to your ideology. Good signs are assassinations, persecutions or general suppression of its members like what we historically see with leftist movements in this country.

Mao Zedong is the ruler of the underworld because he became the god of revolution after he died, but sometimes you might see him in the sky or he can appear to you as a dream. He is celebrated and everyone in the underworld loves Chairman Mao/ The Jade Chairman.

In order to talk to him, spend a bit of time reading theory or listening to socialist music. After a while when you begin to connect with the energies and resonate spiritually with The Jade Chairman, you will begin to intuitively know what he would say in response to certain issues or situations, and you begin to think just like a seasoned revolutionary as the Jade Chairman telepathically sends thoughts into your mind.

This does not usurp your own autonomy, but the thought process of a comrade such as Mao is extremely different to what most people in modern western society would ever think of. People perceive this way of thinking as alien or impractical in a society stuck in primitive bourgeois government systems, but it is shown to provide benefits and good governance to people.

Once upon a time, there was a wise old man reading from an ancient book explaining the origin of poverty to children. He told them a complex story with various gods and deities to explain why people were poor. In the middle of this, The Jade Chairman walked into the room and stopped him. He passed out copies of socialist theory and explained that poverty must be understood within the context of class struggle, or it is anti-proletariat and only exists to justify bourgeois systems. He explained to them the economic systems the world had, but few could understand, and even less could make the connection to class oppression. Those who did went on to become revolutionaries.Since then, poverty has been understood as something man-made, and not inherent to reality.

The Driftwood God is a male manifestation of The Lady Of The Waves representing oceans, sailing, piracy, or spirituality in general. He is also referred to as The Drowned God or The Black Flag God by followers but the name Driftwood god is used to prevent confusion. He can appear as a skeleton wearing a sailor’s uniform or a man made of water holding a trident. His symbol is a pineapple.

Many items are associated with The Drowned God. Driftwood is special because it represents the sea changing the natural world, and also because of how similar it is to human bones. Blue gemstones or those with water energy are also connected, and oceanic ones like Caribbean calcite, blue apatite or aquamarine are especially connected. Other substances are seashells, shark teeth, fish/pirate/ or ocean related imagery are also good for connecting to the driftwood god. Offerings include alcohol, tobacco, oranges, pineapple, coconuts, or anything that is useful on a ship, precious from the ocean, or that prevents scurvy. The Driftwood god is very masculine so colognes and tobacco products also work. taxidermy sea animals are good for setting up on a shrine to the drowned god, especially the jaws or teeth of a shark.

The US military is pissed. Zionists are pissed. A US service member just burned himself alive as a martyr for the cause of the Palestinian people, and pro-Israel reactionaries cannot cope with that fact that a US soldier, someone who is supposed to represent the power of the regime and its ideology would go to such lengths to protest the genocide committed by them. They’re blaming echo chambers and anarchism, and trying their best to make it seem like his actions were somehow illogical. Zionist media is even claiming his actions were comparable to a suicide bombing.

I never thought I would see a soldier of the regime go to such lengths to defend the masses of another nation. However it seems this man came to understand imperialism and the evils of the United States while serving in the military. In a way, he did one of the logical things that someone can do when they realize they exist in a way that advances imperialism and human suffering, which is to self-destruct. This man is a comrade, despite what his uniform may have said. Some people may take issue with the fact that he was a soldier for the US, but this seems stubborn. Wouldn’t you want more soldiers to do what this man did? Or something even half as good? If rogue US military soldiers defend Palestine, why would we go against that? In fact, we should encourage more service members to go rogue so the people of this country can have a formation that actually defends their freedom.

All over the web, people are telling this hero to rest in power. The gods will certainly reward someone who sacrificed everything and was willing to physically burn to death for the people of Palestine. This was almost like self-crucifying. We will most likely hear slander and smear campaigns from the propagandists of the regime soon trying to discredit his actions just as did for George Floyd or any person who became a symbol of resistance. However the masses and our comrades cannot be fooled so easily by bourgeois media. The day of judgment will come for the zionists, and they will be made to pay for their crimes.

From the river to the sea!
