What about manual lever espresso machines? That's my daily driver!

Edit: ignoring my own personal ideology, I think Manual Lever-Machines like the Flair, especially when paired with hand-grinders, are tactile, methodical, and focused on the means just as much as the ends. The actual experience and methodology is just as important as the espresso, it's a ritualistic practice.

As such, I think it's more likely to represent a form of Anarchism, where the means themselves are ends. Marxism-Leninism is usually more representative of gradual processes towards a greater end, whereas Anarchism itself is concerned with the process itself being a good end.

Just my 2 cents, I'd appreciate anyone else weighing in. It's fun to combine espresso and leftist ideology, considering both are important to me!

My Moka pot has led me to learn about an ideology I kinda like at first blush. This meme is uncanny.

I heat up water in the microwave, then add coffee grounds, sugar, and milk to it.

What am I?

Hey, even radical socialists like Charmin on their buttholes

I really like my Ninja dripper. My wife got it for me when we moved in together seven years ago.

I've really gotten into instant coffee lately. Easy to get the right caffeine dosage and it's damn creamy with lots of milk.

Accelerationist or Anarcho-Nihilist.

get away with your fucking bullshit, what about:

  • put the grounds in the cup
  • pour hot water over the grounds
  • stirr in your condiments
  • wait for the grounds to fall
  • scoop out whatever is stuck to the foam on the top
  • drink slowly until you see the grounds

ps: just kidding though, i use the fully automated machine at work like the others there, which puts us all into the trotskyite ca- uh... group, i guess. what i described was the prevalent preparation method in my hometown though

What if I inject coffee straight into my veins?

As a liberal, and an Italian: yes, cause every coffee prep method that isn't espresso fucking sucks.

And I guess replicators can make espresso too.

And mokas burn more than they cook.

I confess I do believe in the right of nations to pursue socialism by different paths, dictated by the conditions, culture and social institutions of each nation, but I would not say I am 100% anti-revisionist. Mostly tho. I mean, don't try to deny class struggle with me, because I am not having it.

Anyone say they Microwave the water to heat yet?
