These two Jackfruit are the same age from the same fruit. One is growing quite large while the other failed to thrive but is still alive. Does anyone know what could be the possible reason?
Calling the comments Francesca Hong made about abolishing the police and prisons following the public lynching of George Floyd and subsequent Black Lives Matter movement "crazy" is not some enlightened, liberal anti-identity politics, pro-working class position.
Intersectionality is not a threat to the working class, white supremacy is. I understand that identity politics is often duplicitously used by Democrats to virtue signal while being agents of white supremacy and capitalism (insert Nancy Pelosi kente cloth here). The question asked of AOC on that interview, however, was not about rainbow/pink capitalism or shallow identity politics which ultimately preserve the underlying system. Rather, the question had been about radical structural changes (abolishing police and prisons) that African Americans have been demanding far before the murder of George Floyd.
I am a young Black-Anarchist living in the American South.
All I see is a future where islands of wealthy, highly-militarized, climate-controlled, AI surveillance states exist in a sea of underdeveloped, natural disaster wrecked, wastelands.
The time to stop this was a century ago (maybe even more) and I fear that my life will be spent watching the sun set on the liberal international rules based order. Real change will take centuries that we simply don't have.
I have been an Undertale fan since 2016, however, I have only just now -with the release of Chapter 5- played Deltarune. I played both games blind and never have been a fan of Undertale and Deltarune theories. I am, however, beginning to enter the theory space and it's left me with this central question: How do we know what we know?
For reference, I am a big fan of the Dark Souls series, Bloodborne, and Elden Ring. In these games, any discussion of lore or theories starts not with events, characters, or locations but themes, motifs, and symbols. Often, the concreteness of "what happened?" or "who dunnit?" is not nearly as important as understanding what that particular character has been intentionally designed to signify and how their fate conveys part of the central message.
I don't see this level of interest in intentionality, themes, or messages in discussions of Deltarune lore. Maybe W.D. Ghaster is masterminding everything, maybe Dess is the Knight, et cetera... but what does that tell us? Why did Toby Fox choose this character to tell this story and why does Toby Fox want his audience to understand this message?
I don't think Toby Fox is a bad writer, and unless there is a Copernican revolution within the theory space, I don't think we will find any meaningful answers.
