I want to make very, very sure you read my entire comment. People spending Christmas without power is all it takes for you to put on the armband and throw your support behind the “gas em all 1488 racial holy war now” faction and become an enemy of like 90% of humanity? Incredible unprompted mask drop. Like, for real? Because that shit happens in war all the time dude. Even if I don’t think it’s a good thing, you don’t see me growing a little tiny mustache because I think Dresden was a bit much. Talk about maximalism, god damn.

- Comment on Joe Biden issues 'full and unconditional' pardon for son 1 month ago:
🤷♂️If you keep getting downvoted by “the smart respectable people” for pointing out that they are neither of those things, eventually people will start to say “Shit, I’m agreeing with Muntedcrocodile (great name btw), I need to reconsider my opinions.”
As soon as you start picking at a blatant hypocrisy in the ruling ideology, you’re tarred with the same vague ‘bad guy’ brush as us.

- Comment on Habits of Insects 2 months ago:
I agree with the sentiment, but this isn’t a scientific monopoly. Socialist countries correctly view science as a collaborative process whose fruits belong to society at large. As an American, I fully understand the concern: we’ve seen how our government used a scientific monopoly, and it was to create a capitalist world hegemony that we’re still suffering in. But it’s important to remember that they’re not us. I’m not just talking about morality either: China and it’s allies simply have none of the incentives to do what we did, and many incentives to do the opposite.

“Available” like the bats are a cheap product. “Why should we protect local bat populations, we can just order more off Amazon.”
Consumer brain is insidious and a symptom of a diseased worldview making us all alienated and miserable. Obviously not even in the top 50 things that are doing that at the moment, but it’s up there.
