I should write a Soylent Green-style creeping sci-fi thriller about growing up in a society that appears memetically capable of respecting and celebrating your culture, but it turns out to be governed by cybernetic programming from aliens who are cultivating your culture in a terrarium in order to eat you, and it鈥檚 actually about growing up Jewish in Christian America.
@taalumot *sidles up in Gnostic* hello my friend can I talk to you about our Lord and Savior Sophia and the Warden-God Yaldaboath?
@taalumot (note: I am not actually gnostic and acknowledge the often racist subtext inherent in modern and ancient gnostic discourse)
@mystickal lol no thank you please
@taalumot having an obvious lightbulb moment that the experience you're talking abt is closer to the context of actual gnosticism vs the G-bro wanna relate so hard im in a prison bc im white racist trash that encouraged me to stop listening to a ton of podcasts. Probably took me so long to recognize that bc I am culturally white racist trash. Anyway, thanks for your tedtalk 鉁岋笍馃
