Alembic Notes

In March of 2022 I fell into destitution. This was an effect of leaving Jehovah Witnesses. This happens to everyone who leaves the cult. I was forced to walk a very long distance in order to access a soup kitchen. It was a very painful ordeal because of nerve damage on my right leg.  An Equmeniakyrkan congregation listened to a request for help when I asked and with their help I was able to get back on top on my own steam and by April 22 all was well again. 

Undocumented life for a partially disabled person is a living hell. 

These were my thoughts as I soldiered on during those long, painful walks... 

______

I embrace paradox

(the cat is both dead and alive before you open the box (wave collapse) and only then) 

truth without logic

(pseudo community is part of the spectacle) 

trotskyism is liberation theology

(focusing on theory is idealist, not materialist) 

Native American genocide: 18 million

Hitler's Holocaust: 6-8 million Jews

Stalinism: 10 million (Holodomor & CPSU-Red Army purges)

(trans women are women if they want 2 b

trans men are men too if they want 2 b

- but only genderqueer are authentic non binary...) 

undocumented workers are workers

(maduro betrayed the Bolivarian revolution)
