that would be a prefix but yeah.

Prefixes are a type of affix, along with suffixes (and infixes, and circumfixes, though English doesn't have those)

in middle east i wish everyone involved regime change, situation is fucked with any of current people in power staying in power. Put Netanyahu, Assad, Erdogan, Khamenei and their cabinets and top people from Hezbollah in Hague then we can talk.

Great man theory doesn't stop being great man theory if you add "and their cabinets" after.

At some point you need to engage with the problem of why things are the way they are, and the answer isn't "The bad guy is in charge (and his cabinet)"

I'm trying to think of what the actual affix would be, and my best answer is genuinely "enentropy"

I'm going to do the reddit thing and say the title was ackshually "To Serve Man", but the reason I mention it is that the pun works much better with the uncountable noun "Man" than the countable plural "Humans", because it's more like how we speak of most types of meat, as an anonymous, indifferent material (lamb, beef, pork, chicken), and I think that's kind of interesting.

A lot of them are weed Republicans (Libertarians) who have some lifestyle thing the Republicans oppose but otherwise they're on the same page

That's possible, I just decided for whatever reason that it wasn't likely to be an internal psycho-drama like that. I think because it was saying "we" and not "you," suggesting (but not denoting) that it is its own patient and not just some figment of the artist's mind or internal toybox, but you're right that it could be that they are both meant to be patients via both being the main character, meaning the "we" is more literally an "I" and I was indeed being too literal in my interpretation of the dialog, too.

Anyway, I am glad I gave you the opportunity to tell someone that ;)

I think it's about nonspecific external hardship (because there are functionally two people there, so it might not be depression/etc)

But it's also probably so deliberately nonspecific that it could be about almost anything

That's totally a valid reading, it might even be correct

My brainrot made me think this was about Current Events

Those fuckers talking about how "traumatic" covid lockdowns were seem to be in for a real nasty surprise.

As anon says, about half didn't vote. Furthermore, a huge amount of the remaining people are ideologically incoherent, at least as far as politics are concerned because political agency is so removed from their lives that there's not much obvious reason to develop serious investment in it -- even more so for people who mainly care about issues that neither red nor blue cares about. Oh, and there are still minorities (each cycle less) who were scared into voting for Kamala for false promises of self-preservation. You're looking at a bunch of people who blatantly have various kinds of false consciousness and declaring that their informed class consciousness is as imperial lackeys based on their current actions. It makes no sense and opposes the current evidence, it's just revolutionary pessimism because "they're settlers, QED."

I don't think this is so true. If the billionaire and high-multimillionaire class is liquidated, that's a lot of resources and more importantly political power that is back in the hands of the proletariat. The ability to (on average) live in a society that actually has policies like what you want instead of trudging on with a "this is what reality is" resignated sigh is valuable (especially since most people are minoritized in some way besides being proles). Resources being spent towards pro-social ends instead of on corruption and the vanity of billionaires is also a gain that's hard to fathom. Yeah, there will be petite-bourg fuckers who want to continue with their fiefdoms unchallenged by nasty things like labor rights, but that's always the case to some extent. There will be a fascist movement from them that needs to be crushed, but that doesn't override the huge amount that people have to gain from revolution.
