    I hope the things you like get mistaken in the news as white supremacist-related, then nazis all pile on until nobody can enjoy it any more.

    • JackRiddle@sh.itjust.works ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

      It’s usually the other way around. The nazis slowly corrupt a community that consists mostly of one of their target groups, pushing out people who are aware of their dogwhistles because, well, they’re clearly nazis, and is not going to recognize that or listen to you, as they wouldn’t make a good target group otherwise.

      Then, if they succeed, at some point it gets bad enough that the media notices, after which the nazis go “look at the silly liberals, thinking everyone is racist these days” and get a lot more open, thereby pushing out the last few people who were initially oblivious to there fascism, or forcing them to endure fascist rethoric to enjoy their hobby’s community.

      K-On is one of my favorite guilty pleasure shows, and for some reason saying that now makes people suspect I’m a Nazi.

      I ain’t letting them have this one. It’s a stupid show about high schoolers drinking tea and playing music, dammit.

    Happens to me all the time with music. Be jamming out to a song I’ve loved for years, right when my fav. artist dropped the album. Then tiktok plays the one hook from one song on their album and people always ask “Oh! Did you hear that on tikTok?!” … No…no…no 🙄

      That has happened to me so much in recent years, both with clipped songs and bands/artists I like becoming popular. I don’t hold myself with any music pretention, and the vast majority of my “underground” discoveries are just random chance and Spotify algorithm. There is no way I have found to explain “no, I’ve been listening to them since [insert album]” that hasn’t been met with some form of hipster comment.

        Maybe you don’t have to tell people anything at all about how you discovered good music?

        “Oh, did you hear about them on TikTok?”

        What?

        “TikTok. You probably heard that song on TikTok.”

        Oh ok. I really like their new album. I also enjoy [insert other music you like].

        “Yeah, I heard it on TikTok. I really love the 20 version I’ve heard replayed thousands of times.”

        Cool. Have a good day.

    Back in the 90s, saying the earth was flat meant you were open to talking through hypothetical science and creating wild theories. You knew the truth, but you never wanted to break kafabe. The sheer sillyness was part of the fun.

    Today, saying the earth is flat means youre a flat out moron who lacks other critical thinking skills. It’s a warning sign that you also have other troubling thoughts.

      See, this is what I thought we were doing back then too, but I’ve got a different hypothesis. I believe many of the people we were talking to back then actually really did believe it. I don’t think people were any more level-headed back then than they are now – we just assumed they were joking because that’s what we were doing.

        It’s because the author is friends with one of the lead guys over at Epic in charge of the game. They cycle through so many characters that they just start asking their friends for ideas I guess.

      For gaming I see your point, it looks like everything as to be a money grab nowaday which greatly reduce the quality of a lot of games.

      For ttrpg I don’t feel like it though. Sure Wizard of the Coast/Hasbro has gone to shit but I left the D&D train a long time ago already. And the amount of other very good and accessible system is amazing. IMO The only thing “bad” that this new popularity bring is players with wrong expectations. Some expect every games and every DM to be of the same quality as Critical Roll or other well known podcast, some exept to find “video games” mechanic like in baldur’s gate, some are trying to force the meme stuff inside the game, ect.

        By any chance, did you watch it when it first came out? Lost was made to be binge watched in an era of television before that was commonplace. It holds up much better if you can watch an episode every few days, instead of once a week.

    It might be mildly annoying, I give you that, but throwing a tantrum about people enjoying the same stuff as you but “not enough” or “the wrong way” is super immature and petty.

      The problem primarily is when a niche interest becomes exploited for profit by capitalists and no longer maintains the community-oriented culture it once had.

      It will lose aspects of it that make it unique and special but they don’t appeal to the general public, because ultimately making as much profit as possible means attracting as many customers as possible.

  • TimewornTraveler@lemm.ee ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

  • Vespair@lemm.ee ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

    Except this is all predicated on caring about other people’s opinions on your interests, which is foolish to begin with.

    If you like something, like it because you like it. Let however other people process the thing be how they process it; it doesn’t have to have any impact on how you process it.
