Want to wade into the sandy surf of the abyss? Have a sneer percolating in your system but not enough time/energy to make a whole post about it? Go forth and be mid: Welcome to the Stubsack, your first port of call for learning fresh Awful you’ll near-instantly regret.
Any awful.systems sub may be subsneered in this subthread, techtakes or no.
If your sneer seems higher quality than you thought, feel free to cut’n’paste it into its own post — there’s no quota for posting and the bar really isn’t that high.
The post Xitter web has spawned soo many “esoteric” right wing freaks, but there’s no appropriate sneer-space for them. I’m talking redscare-ish, reality challenged “culture critics” who write about everything but understand nothing. I’m talking about reply-guys who make the same 6 tweets about the same 3 subjects. They’re inescapable at this point, yet I don’t see them mocked (as much as they should be)
Like, there was one dude a while back who insisted that women couldn’t be surgeons because they didn’t believe in the moon or in stars? I think each and every one of these guys is uniquely fucked up and if I can’t escape them, I would love to sneer at them.
(Credit and/or blame to David Gerard for starting this.)
Also, reading up on the recent nix community mess (more fun interpersonal steering committee member conflict!), I’ve come to one conclusion:
One day someone will make a stage play out of this whole thing and the play will suck.
Is it just me or does it feel there’s a concerted effort to boost the AT protocol in tech venues? Maybe I’m paranoid but it does feel like a bit of openwashing going on.
Just here to note that @dgerard had a clippy pfp before it was cool
Think I’ve taken psychic damage reading this about moldbug contemplating leaving the country https://fxbsky.app/profile/helldude.bsky.social/post/3m2hltni4422n
No, it will not harm the anarchist—it will make his day, his year, and maybe his life. All the money and power in the world will be at his defense. He will not even need to lift a finger to organize his own lawyers, much less pay them. In the end, as with many of the BLM rioters, he will probably be well compensated, with taxpayer funds, for his trouble. Not to mention all the pussy and/or dick s/he will, as a martyr, be entitled to! For the Islamist, this reward is only in heaven. But for the leftist it comes on earth.
ah dammit, anarchist HQ did an anarchy to my martyr’s genital preference form again. now I’m getting dicked down harder than I’ve ever been - straight thru the mantle to the core of the earth. It’s like a porn parody of The Core over here, and I’m not even anywhere near Portland
Amusing just how basic his insults and ideas about the left are. This is generic drunken bar patron shit. Lot of projection there. You lost it Moldy, you need to add more obscure references so you don’t come off so reactionary/reactive mid.
I think he’s imagining cool Antifa street fighters as a replacement for the popular kids he was jealous of in childhood. Netd-Jock [sic] seething, but ideological.
It is not just us.
this is big talk coming from beginner cult founder funded by thiel, a failed lawyer
