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 so 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.
Some far-right culture warrior is writing a book blaming the Zizian killings on their being trans rather than classic cult dynamics and apocalyptic ideas (The Zizians: Inside a Trans Death Cult) https://www.hachettebookgroup.com/titles/andy-ngo/the-zizians/9780316599030/
ffs, andy ngo. haven’t heard of this clown in a while. he’s gay btw, which makes this doubly infuriating. maybe he’ll go the milo route one day.
being a queer myself, these weird queer far-right ghouls are such a fucking nuisance. and while sometimes entertaining to watch (e.g. dave rubin), at the end of the day it’s just very, very stupid. like, you’re throwing trans people under the bus today, do you think your specific flavor of queerness will be totally fine with the fascists down the line?
(obviously this rant is not about defending the zizians at all, but about blaming transness at their earliest convenience)
