The brain is fascist and authoritarian. Stop making excuses. Stop saying it's necessary. It's literally your brain saying that. Can you trust what your brain thinks of itself?

The hands, muscles, stomach, do all the work, just for the brain to leech off all the nutrients and oxygen. Guess what came up with capitalism? The brain. Fascism? Brain. Hierarchies(very bad)? That's right, the brain. Stop making excuses. Destroy the brain.

Muscles can just, like, get into defense councils and shit. Muscle memory, right? Oh, it's also in the brain? Collective hierarchical motion is authoritarian and fascist anyways. Come to think of it, so are organs. And tissues. Fuck them all, let's just like dissolve into amoebas or something, I don't care! What are the negative consequences? I don't care about the consequences! Stop being so submissive to this authoritarianism inside of you! How can you purge authoritarianism from society if it's embedded in yourself?e fhdzdhdfdjfdjfdsjkdjnzxxz dspi dshodhn cbxh bjkcj sd 'psd bj dsbjl z hdhsd;k fdshdfsbh zdj zd d

Destroy the notion that the brain is something separate from the body that can operate independent of it. Your bone marrow and the contents of your small intestine affect your brain chemistry. Instead we must institute physiological Leninism, and establish a vanguard of brainworms to lead the remainder of the body to liberation

The brain can be reformed and salvaged, its just the crony hippocampus ruining our (nervous) system. A few bad apples

In Disco Elysium each political leaning has a specific voice associated with it. Communism speaks to you through rhetoric, ultraliberalism through Savoir Faire, moralism through Empathy.

Fascism talks to you through your Endurance and asks you to stop thinking entirely, think with your gut instinct alone instead of your brain. It asks you to inflict pain on yourself until you feel nothing.

The gut-brain axis (GBA) consists of bidirectional communication between the central and the enteric nervous system, linking emotional and cognitive centers of the brain with peripheral intestinal functions. Recent advances in research have described the importance of gut microbiota in influencing these interactions. This interaction between microbiota and GBA appears to be bidirectional, namely through signaling from gut-microbiota to brain and from brain to gut-microbiota by means of neural, endocrine, immune, and humoral links.
