    Default What is your worst fear?

    Comrades, I have a confession to make. Once upon a time, many ages ago, I was horrendously frightened of aliens. Yes, aliens; the ones that people with normal brains usually do not believe in. Yet, these aliens that I once feared are not the aliens you see in movies, you know, the ones that can actually kill you. No, the aliens I feared were these skiny, usually small creatures from a race of extraterrestrials called the Greys. These aliens did not have any fangs, or claws, or weapons. Yet, according to what I read at that time as a young child, they did come into your bedroom in the middle of the night and take you away to preform medical experiments on you without anesthesia. That information was what fueled my fear for the next three years. As if the fact that they come and take you away during the night to play psycho doctor with you is not scary enough, their eyes and the way they look was what really finalized the fear for me. Have you ever seen a picture of those things, they look so fucking scary! Anyone care to post pictures . Yet, even though I was scared shitless of those aliens, I always researched them and read stories of alien abductions. That scared me even more, but I guess I was just a fear-loving masochist back then. Well, that is what was once my worst fear, a fear that kept me awake until 3 in the morning on some nights.

    Now, what is your worst fear?

    Spiders and other insects. If I could, I would destroy every non-useful insect with a snap of the fingers. More preferably just kill every bug on earth at once and have some artificial means of replacing them. They're the ultimate enemies of Mammals

    Most insects and arachnids, especially spiders.

This group they choose from the confines of one of the various prisons which constitute the bourgeois society of 'free men' i.e. the factory, the trade, the territorial or legal patch. Their entire miserable effort consists in telling the non-free, the non-citizens, the non-individuals [. . .] to envy and imitate their oppressors: be independent! free! be citizens! people! In a word: be bourgeois!" -Amadeo Bordiga, "Fundamentals of Revolutionary Communism"

    My biggest fear is electrocution. I would rather die in any other way.

    My worst fear is never belonging anywhere and just drifting around, unsatisfied my whole life.
    It used to be crash test dummies, though, as well as purple bingo chips, or the number 38, or various other ridiculous things. I seem to have gotten over all of my weird fears now.

    OP, I am terrified of the Greys. Seriously. It was much worse when I was younger, but still to this day they horrify me more than anything else. I hate them. I can't watch shows on UFOs anymore because they always cut in shots of those fucking monstrosities.
    I see good points in nearly all sections of the socialist left.

    Banakon....King Cobra. apex predator here. A female guarding a nest will not back down. Forget everything you think you know about snakes. Only one encounter, was on my own wandering around Mango orchard. It moved swiftly over the leaf debris. It wanted a piece of me for sure, I was in his/her place uninvited. We keep plenty of small dogs, we give them as birthday presents to the labourers. They also act as warnings of snakes or are sacrificial, although dogs are quite canny never get too close. The workers fear and respect the snake, but also enjoy eating them or collecting bounty from the mayor. We have native fowl and chickens running free. we would soon notice something was not quite right.

    Children as soon as the can take their first steps are 'taught' to fear snakes. A child will wander near to the boundary or gate. We call out "S N A K E", if the child carries on one of the women hides and screams like a banshee "whaaagh-whaaagh*, fiendish racket, the child returns in hysterics usually . Much to the amusement of siblings and adults. Poor kid, luckily there are no social services about. After a couple of episodes the child never wanders and knows what a snake sounds like, terrifying. Very little chance of reaching hospital in time for effective treatment. The Philippines Cobra is even more venomous than the King, though not so aggressive. Then of course there is a spitting Cobra. After eating snake and watched them capture or kill them I can't say I am scared, just very wary. Not until you face one does the knees want to buckle and a hasty retreat seems in order.........

    "Waaagh-Waagh!!" "MUMMEEEEY!!"

    When I was really young, my older sister used to squeeze Ken's head from Barbie and chase me around the house with it. But yeah, spiders and insects are nasty. Snakes, mice, et. al; almost like people. Insects - totally different world. They eat our rotten food, eat our houses, and eat us. Very earthy little fellows. I understand they are necessary for decomposition, pollination, etc. and without them we couldn't survive. But they are terrible little monsters and definitely an enemy. If they are outside I stay clear, if they are inside air-raid bells go off, blackout curtains go on and I spray poison all over them. And roaches, those guys are cunning, calculating bastards. They are tough to kill because they anticipate your movements and pre-empt you. And when you finally get them, they either make a big messy splatter or you have to despose of their giant bodies. I use disposable chopsticks so I don't have to touch them.

    But there is one spider (or family tree of spiders) that builds a big web on the street light next to my balcony every summer. I like that dude and his successors because his web is filled with other insects he prevents from coming into my house. We have a united front. Very precarious though, I keep an eye on him.

    Ever read the book Keep the Aspidistra Flying? Thats kinda my fear. Succumbing to the humdrum and zombie life of middleclass existance. Having children because "that's what you do", Minivans, Culdesac gossip, white pants and runners, the big fridaynight meal at TGI Fridays, Motivational seminars and wanting to die everytime some housewife says she needs to catch up on The Real Housewives!

    That we slide into the abyss without the working class overthrowing capitalism and the state.

    Alternatively, that we go through the trauma of the revolution and world civil war, then emerge from the horror and all that happens afterwards is 'the Party' introduces compulsory self-criticism sessions and the gulag for 'bourgois deviationists' while simultaneously calling for 'proletarian self-sacrifice for greater production norms'.

    A variation on the them of Blake's Baby; that I live long enough to see either a libertarian,extreme neo-liberal regime or that another Socialist Revolution happens and it descends into a dictatorship of the party or Juche or some other horrible variant of "Marxism-Leninism". Since I am an American, I fear the former more than the latter, although the latter would be emotionally painful as it would be yet another betrayal of the working class by their so-called "vanguards".
