You can try to ask stupid questions, but according to the title of this community you will never succeed
- Comment on I'm so tired of hearing about US police brutality and China being authoritarian. Why does it feel like everyone is a hypocrite here? Where are the posts about Chinese protests and police brutality? 1 month ago:
You’d see a lot of them when those Hong Kong protests were going on
- Comment on What is the General Consensus of Web3? 1 month ago:
It was usually treated as synonymous with NFTs/cryptocurrency/the metaverse and only soulless investor types liked those things so they all went bust
- Comment on If somebody spends the whole day watching fox or religious propaganda, gets worked up and all he can think of is owning a liberal or converting an unbeliever, is this person a victim or just gullible? 1 month ago:
Think that anyone who would find that stuff compelling is not in a good place emotionally or mentally. Now, ideally they should be pulled out of that, and you do occasionally hear stories about people leaving extremist groups like Qanon because they found a healthy hobby or community. On the other hand, I don’t think humans can really be separated cleanly between victim and victimizer, and the people this questions describing often become a danger to other people.
- Comment on [Serious] Any high-quality right-wing media, books, explainers? 1 month ago:
Probably more right-wing than you’re looking for, but The Concept of the Political by Carl Schmitt. Insightful on how these people think, and much more readable than works by some Nazi philosophers I could mention. Also if you’re interested in a good deconstruction of far right views, I highly recommend Neoreaction a Basilisk by Elizabeth Sandifer

- Comment on Apple will allow users to download apps directly from a developer’s website, in latest EU App Store rule change 3 months ago:
I know it won’t happen but sometimes I amuse myself by imagining America having its own Euromaiden revolution just so corporations will stop making their products worse so they’ll be more profitable
- Comment on Would magically turning all trans people into the gender they want to be be unethical? 5 months ago:
I mean, unless you also retconned their past it wouldn’t really erase their identity as trans people. The bigger problem would be that in the process you’d out a bunch of people.
