I noticed people started to use the idea of “no ethical consumption under capitalism” to just be completely irresponsible and just stop trying at all. I don’t think the point of that is to give up completely lol

"speak truth to power"

"based"

"let him cook"

What’s the actual origin of based anyways? Last I checked it came from a musician popular on 4chan. Probably doesn’t count as leftist if so.

I thought it was from the English translation of al kaida
