I used to know a girl in elementary school and she was some kind of fundamentalist Christian (half the school was). She had a habit of saying she "loved everyone" because she believed Christ's main command is to love everyone without question. And other kids would take advantage of that by saying, "Even Hitler?" She'd always nod and say "Yes, even Hitler. I love him." Or they'd say Jeffrey Dahmer, or whoever else. I remember it was OJ Simpson for a while because he was often in the news. Then she'd be roundly mocked for saying she loves Hitler or whoever. She was overall just a dumb kid who didn't understand what she was saying, but enjoyed the attention from the other children and seemed to like making everyone laugh. She eventually grew out of the habit.
This feels like the same thing except it's a grown woman who does a breathy falsetto voice into a delay vst and also she had kids with Elon Musk, notorious open racist
Was she Lutheran? It is a belief that some Christians have, that afaik is associated most with Lutherans, that everyone goes to heaven now, since jesus has taken on all sin. (though, I think the general official Lutheran position is everyone who accepts christ goes to heaven, which imo is much funnier, since it says that jesus gets to go to heaven but not, say, the jews he killed).
Regardless, imo Christian afterlife beliefs are super fucked up, but that idea of universalism, that everyone goes to heaven, is the one that makes most sense to me. It always seems weird to me that people insist jesus is all about forgiveness, but also he will condemn for to eternal hellfire if you say he isn't real (or kiss boys or whatever else is in vogue to be considered sinful).
No, she wasn't Lutheran. I'm from the south, so she was probably some type of evangelical Baptist schism. There were so many different little splits of protestants in my hometown.
Not to mention that most Christians around where I'm from just go on vibes rather than specific theology. I didn't mean to specifically draw attention to my classmate's religion though. I just meant that she reminded me of this very vibes based thing Grimes has going. A very empty statement of empathy towards everyone without truly meaning it or knowing what they're saying.
Expressing universal empathy can be good though, it's good to recognize shared humanity. It falls apart when you're doing like Grimes and repeating Nazi ideology.
Universalism makes sense to me too, and also I started to get the idea of purgatory--that especially evil people need to be purified before they can be in God's presence--and also annihilationism, that others are just completely gone if they choose to reject Christianity or suck too much for purgatory or whatever
Wow lady who dated Elon Musk and got rich selling NFTs is a racist, imagine my shock.
One of her last tracks was called “We Appreciate Power”
The one good thing Cyrus the Great did was banning slavery.
didn't. the anti-slavery credentials were made up by the last Shah to declare the Cyrus Cylinder the 'first declaration of human rights',

I'm called a Nazi because I happily am proud of white culture.
What do u say abt the African slave trade of Slavs? It's racist to pretend whites have always been in power.
‘people call me nazi because I support white pride, imperialism, and great replacement theory on a bigoted platform run by a white supremacist who I’ve made multiple white babies with to continue our superiour white genes’
What do u say abt the African slave trade of Slavs
that it didn't happen? cause it didn't wtf she talking about
So many questions about this tweet. What is white culture? Why would you think about these random historical persons every day? How do you "invent" an empire? Why is that something you think fondly of someone for?
What the fuck is is this "white culture" that she speaks of?
Casseroles and Miracle hwip
Hotdog jello.
capitalism and baseball?
Tractor pulls and lawn mower racing
Medieval Times
Genocide and slavery presumably
Grimes stfu- challenge level: impossible
I have never met anyone who actually listens to her music. literally another made up celebrity.
The old sub was how I found out about her and I was surprised so many people in there were fans.
The chapo tabletop parody was my first intro to her and and legit thought she was a made up chapo bit for like a week or two.
I did, and many friends did, circa like 2015, she was pretty popular with techno-hipster warehouse living noise band starting types back then, which I was culturally adjacent too as a guy into arty hardcore.
I mean, I listened to the Hilda theme song... Whenever I watched that show... Which was about five years ago?
never knew who she was until rolling-volcano-maker-man dated her
irrelevant cracker and honestly hard to listen to
From an early age, Irulan's father Shaddam IV expected her to become Empress after his death, or at the very least to wed a political ally and retain House Corrino's hegemony over the Imperium. The Bene Gesserit also saw potential in the girl, and gave her sufficient training so that they could exploit her at some point in the future, were she to find herself in a position of power.
However, despite the expectations of others, Irulan remained only an average Bene Gesserit adept, and retained a strong sense of personal identity and ambition: qualities that caused tension between herself and her equally strong-minded father. Lady Jessica mused that Irulan was too proud to progress very far with her Bene Gesserit training.
Me, after eating a fist full of blood pressure pills and resisting the primal urge to DUNE POST:
->radical decentralized UBI that I think could potentially be achieved through crypto and gaming
She just hasnt ironed out the ideas yet! obviously once that's done we'll evolve as a society.
i love to casually read Marx while at the bus stop dressed like Simon Belmont
What is capital, except a miserable pile of vampires?
What I love about that photo shoot is she’s clearly just walking down the sidewalk in a subdivision in Saratoga or something. The setting is so bizarre for what is already a weird setup.
Leaning against a random signpost
Put on her best "deep-in-thought reading face"
Holding it in a delicate pose to keep the title visible
Full cosplay
Her ass is NOT reading
She's like Joe Rogan. She's radicalized by the last person she had a conversation with.
The Sartre quote. Never assume they are unaware. Normies aren't stupid, they're intentionally being malicious.
I feel that assuming she's just ignorant is generous given the resources she has access to. I'm not directing this at you, but I wonder how much ignorance matters when the individual in question can cause or has caused material harm.
So? I get called a communist for thinking non-whites have the right to be alive. You'll get used to it.
Wow, the woman who has several children with Elon Musk is a dumbass who tries to do the colourblind anti racism schtick.
No analysis, just vibes.
She types like a granola hippie who dipped their toes into Qanon.
"All Lives Matter"
human suprematist
Someone get ALF
Every day she thinks of Cyrus the Great? Fucking bullshit.
All cultures participated in horrible things and the industrialization of slavery is arguably the worst of all, and arguably the cause of decline of all empires before this one. That doesn't mean there are great humans among us in the past and now. What do u say abt the African slave trade of Slavs? It's racist to pretend whites have always been in power. All humans have contributed to our worst and best
Nazi
the African slave trade of Slavs
What?
I didn’t even know what this thing was until people started talking about Elmo max grams this that
Why did people think she was anything but a weirdo nazi freak I don’t understand
she used to have "anti-imperialist" in her twitter bio and used to be vocally pro-trans back in like 2012 when she was semi popular among techno warehouse types, and that was still kinda rare to hear back then. So people latched onto her
her getting with Musk was very, very surreal at the time. Imagine if Jeff Bezos started dating the girl from 100gecs. That's what it felt like.
Imagine if Jeff Bezos started dating the girl from 100gecs.
I went out a few times with a girl that was her fan and she idolized their relationship, should not have ignored the giant red flags. Would not go out with a lib again, specially someone that likes childish billionaires
"proud of white culture" definitely crosses the line from dumbass to malicious, plus the casual dismissal of white supremacist violence with the common neo-nazis talking point of "every culture does violence"
She's a racist millionaire with a fanbase and platform, she's the definition of malicious
She's doing all lives matter in the comments lmao
Looooool that's exactly what my immediate thought was too
Lol, Tolkien hated the nazis primarily because they were fucking nazis, he was miffed about their use of germanic and Norse mythological imagery cause they were intentionally warping a history he knew a fuckload about. But to say he was mad cause the nazis made white supremacy look bad is absurd and doesn't really understand how old timey this dude is, if anything Tolkien thought that damage was done following the Norman Conquest. My man was waaaaaay too mideval and ancient history brained to even consider a unified white European culture to be a thing.
"artists aren't reactionary counter-revolutionaries, they inspire us with a bold vision"
their bold vision:
Irulen
Didn’t read the book, didn’t she?
Grimes calling herself an immigrant lol. Never forget that the yanqui empire was and continues to be based on indigenous eviction by these "immigrants".
