Kevin Gibes / Kathryn Gibes / TransSalamander / RageTreb / The Green Salamander - "Am hole:" The epitomized Twitter MtF you thought was just a myth! Donate to his Transformers toy fund today!

Also, pretty sure people manage to surprise folks all the time, even under dread capitalism. You know, people with independent sources of income and the capacity to plan their own trips. Of course, a more mature person might want to be sure their sudden presence wasn’t going to be inconvenient for the people they were visiting.
 
Coming back to reply to this to say I just assumed that all the lesbians in this game were transbians and realizing a transbian put cis lesbians in the game is the most this thread has surprised me ever.
L8 thanks to DDoS attacks, but some troons date other transbians by choice and because they are actually attracted to feminized men. But a lot only date trans women because no cis woman will date them. And many prefer lesbians because it confirms that a woman that is only attracted to women is into THEM therefore they are a true woman, and it might even be purer in their eyes since they see men = dirty sex perverts while women = pure and sweet love (which is a common anime thing). Some even refuse to date bisexuals since there's the vaguest possibility that said person is attracted to the MALE part of them!

There was something on the Her app where they tried to set up a T4T event but there wasn't enough interest despite the site being 50% or more troons, and one trans person actually stepped in and explained the reason is that a lot want REAL women (and then was deleted by mods to not make them look bad lol). I wish I could find it but it would take a while.

Curious how Kevin’s sudden burst of commentary on UK politics has ended now that the premier is no longer a woman.
I'm guessing it's because someone else close to him stopped talking about it and/or his attention span of a fly, but a funny observation I appreciate.

It'd be interesting to roughly estimate the tranch's spendings then find out whether money leftover from necessity purchases could be split and given to tranch members as "payments" i.e. how Kevvie keeps purchasing shit... but maybe someone else more autistic could do it for me
I think Phil actually gives him allowance. It's part of their mommy/child LARP and fulfills Phil's need to be a provider even though he's fucking terrible at it.
 
Don't get your hopes up, Bonnie is too late. Penny is taking his two kink projects to the second Ranch location which just so happens to only be big enough for the three of them.

Bonnie is going to be framed as the bad guy for destroying the primary Ranch location as he tries to salvage whats left of his financials and Penny will find a new way to salve his sheepdog complex.

During all this Kevin will only have eyes for the vast improvement in material living conditions. He won't know what alpacas are by the end of 2023.

tl;dr: Kevin wins.
Kevin always wins.

One good thing about music, when it hits you feel no pain
 
Kevin is certainly retarded but I think you're giving him too much credit here by granting him a philosophy, he's simply repeating what other communists say. It's pretty much been an axiom since Marx and Engels that scarcity does not exist not in some technologically advanced future but the here and now and is only caused for everyone by the capitalists hoarding through the fiction of property. Even non-communists sympathetic to the "left" (and sometimes the "right") say this constantly about all kinds of things.

Because Kevin is stupid he doesn't understand why he can't just have whatever he wants, possibly because this has been his experience, so when this happens (for any reason) and he's told it's the fault of someone else being malicious against him personally he accepts it as true. The "communism" he supports, not really as I and others have shown throughout his thread*, is as you got to at the end there merely the language he's stolen to frame the difference between reality he does not like (capitalism) and the utopia he imagines himself entitled to by the fact of his existence (communism) and is most likely the result of social factors related to who he's associated with. It's entirely possible that an alternative Kevin would simply ascribe these same things to the work of Satan and longed for the day when Goddess accepted him into her ample bosom, we could come up with a multitude of similar hypothetical Kevin's with the same mindset (some even have threads here) but I think that one is an easy example familiar enough to everyone and that Kevin would dislike.

I think it's highly likely that Kevin would struggle to conceive of a world or even a universe outside of his personal existence unless it's tied to some fictional universe he consooms.

Yes, Kevin is just an idiot. The communist critique of capitalism is basically that during the transition from feudalism into capitalism, the working class were dispossessed of their own land (the means of production that would have allowed them to fend for themselves) and thus had to sell their labor-power to capitalists (who now own the means of production, which can be the land or the factories, among other things) in order to merely survive. Communists want to socialize/collectivize said means of production to redistribute the profit (this is an oversimplification but it will do).

Kevin and his friends OWN a piece of land AND, in theory, a business. In Marxist terms, they are petty bourgeois (not working class). Well, in truth it's Bonnie's mother who owns the tranch, but she's not extracting profit from it and it's a piece of land that they could have used to sustain themselves. A piece of land they do not till, a piece of land they do not work on, a land that is now barren and cannot even sustain their cattle, thanks to their magnificient efforts.

Not only is Kevin no communist, he doesn't even know what communism is supposed to stand for.
 
In short, capitalism is something much more specific and modern than "having to work for a living." That's as old as the human race, even if the work we're talking about is substinence farming or even hunting and gathering. Now, some "anti-work anarchists" will tell you that directly extracting your living from your environment doesn't count as "work" but these people think you can win arguments by changing the meaning of words. See... any troon argument for why they're meaningfully similar to genuine members of the opposite sex. Ever.

KevKev will be loaded up into the back of the car, hugging his stuffies, waving “buh bye” to the awwwpawcas, as Penis drives him off to parts unknown. He has no idea what’s happening around him, and it’s best to think of him as a low iq moron who takes everything Penis tells him at face value.

I didn't bother pointing out Kevin's childish, self serving ideas about communism don't extend beyond brand name recognition because I assume everyone already knows and agrees. :story: So parasocial, but that's what I get for years of lazy lurking.

They never remember that feudalism collapsed because there were simply not enough people after the bubonic plague for the system to make economic sense. Fewer laborers meant they could demand more and actual wages that freed them to settle in cities or spend their own funds on their own land. People just flat out didn't want to be "working the land" anymore and had the leverage to make it happen.

The Tranch, then, are capitalist-poisoned communists who don't want to put in the work and long for that urban life of plentiful leisure goods. But communism, just like any other system, doesn't let you get out everything you put in. Marxism thinks we're always losing less and gaining more until we get to the communist utopia, when everything just increases for everyone forever. But there's always some exchange that costs everybody something, even if it's something they won't miss much.

I would say that Penny in particular is more ultra libertarian, than any kind of anarchist or communist.

Kevvie just thinks that he deserves whatever he wants, and that is what communism means.

They are a collection of delusional men trying to live out persecution fantasies, whatever their political ideology is.

That's a broad generalization that omits enormous swaths of Europe.

Feudalism chugged along well into the 1800s in a lot of places, and one might argue that sharecropping is a form of modern feudalism.

It’s often made as it was definitely the case in Britain and there can be a very clear correlation drawn between the Black Death and the eventual rise of capitalism.

There is a massive BUT however, and that is the legal system of Britain which was rare in that it had more recognition of individualism, which arguably also is a contributing factor.

The English Civil War and Cromwell’s resulting reforms, the American colonies and industrialization also were requisite elements.

Spain for instance had colonies earlier and was clearly interested in the acquisition of wealth, but retained a more feudal system and mindset.

Blame it on Steb. The only source of knowledge Kevin has about the UK, is Steb. Hence, Truss stops being relevant in the UK > Stops being relevant to Steb > Stops being relevant to Kevin.
Maybe :optimistic: of me, but I’m really hoping Bonnie spills the beans on Kevvie’s finances during his current rant about the running of the Tranch.
Partially happened (archive). Moreso about Penor than amhole, but given that this is a thing, wouldn't be surprised if there's a seperate Kevin Toy Fund.
Alpaca mass grave confirmed!

Also, crosspost from the general tranch thread. Alpaca mass grave confirmed.

That's too rosy a picture. Kevin is going to be Chris-Chan sighing for several days as he's forced both to spend time and energy packing up his gargantuan toy collection and then being made to leave a bunch of it behind with the vague promise (aka lie) that Penny will "come back for it".

I'll say this, I'm mildly impressed Penny, Kevin and Jen have managed to find an exit plan - I kinda predicated Penny would have to bail in the middle of the night and abandon his pets. Kevin in particular seems to have parasite skills that put malaria to shame.

Is there a possibility that Kevvie and Jen have something on Penny?

He gave so little of a shit about wife and kids to ditch them, and stupid autistic easily manipulated Troons are ten a titty skittle.
Even a meth mouthed creep like him could find a slimmer “prettier” layabout man larping as a woman.

If he were to ditch Kevvie, he would for sure spill on twitter anything Penny doesn’t want the world or other Troons to know.

It's gotta be some sort of combination of that and the fact that they both have tugboats coming in for some level of guaranteed income. Sure, Kevy spends a significant portion on transformers, but maybe Penny is delusional enough to think he can pressure Kevin into giving him more of his income if his back is truly against the wall.

I wonder how many things Kevin's going to break in a tard rage while he's packing his toys away.

Remember the time he spazzed out and broke some card because he couldn't get it in the sleeve thing correctly? There's no way he's going to take the time and effort to bubble wrap and carefully pack everything one by one. I bet he's going to be furious at having to use his spoons and get off his fat arse and do something that actually requires thought AND effort. Or perhaps Penny will just dump them in the mass grave with the alpacas and tell Kevin his transformers have gone to live on a farm upstate.

I'm a horrible person but this sparks joy (Kevin being mad, that is; the alpaca deaths do NOT spark joy).
