I listen to vaporwave while reading early cyberpunk novels by Gibson and Sterling, it fits surprisingly well

I'm also interested in this. I think just having an understanding of Marx would be a good start.

No. Only some vaporwave is like that. There are many different flavors of vaporwave. It's mostly just music that triggers nostalgia and intense emotions for times/ places that never really existed.

It’s supposed to capture the melancholy aesthetic of failing capitalism. Usually it’s just catchy 80s pop music that has been edited to sound degraded

Dont give a fuck about vaporware. Just want to say hitler did nothing wrong and jews have been rapists foe millenia. Fuck jews and their rapist occupation of palestine. Fuck trump for supporting these billionaire racist fucks who think theit big noses, curley hair,, and short stature makes them gods chosen people. Fuck the fucking jews and fuck anyone who buys into their zionist racist bullshit that has been going on for thousands of years while they play the victim.

What are thesw jew cunts going to do? Stop harassing me on the disney channel and nickelodean and newspapers? Are these big-nosed racist fucks going to realize i dont like their murderous childish impulses and stop stalking and harassing me? Im so very fucking scared.
