If only it was that simple…
- Comment on US eliminates unit countering foreign disinformation 2 weeks ago:
Imagine that - an office dedicated to counterong foreign disinformation somehow ends up being accused of censoring conservative views.
That reminds me of when I saw a mouse in my kitchen, so I set a trap snd caught it, snd somehow that slao stopped the ragged holes that were inexplicably appearing in food packages in the cupboards.
Just one of life’s mysteries I guess…

I can’t see any situation in which I would.
Mostly I have zero interest in sucking any dick (other than maybe my own, and I’m not that flexible).
But beyond that, $20 just seems wrong no matter what - if I wanted to do it, $20 would be pointless and if I didn’t, it wouldn’t be near enough.
- Comment on Democratic Senators Team Up With MAGA To Hand Trump A Censorship Machine 5 weeks ago:
The timing here is what makes this move particularly baffling…
It’s only baffling if you cling to the ever-more-laughable belief that the Democrats are any sort of meaningful opposition.
If you instead simply shift to the ever-more-supported belief thatvthey are in fact essentially oligarchic co-conspirators, then the timing makes perfect sense.

That whole family is just rich white trash, aren’t they?

“Lefties keep calling us Nazis but they don’t even know what Nazis are, and oh yeah, by the way, all of these people over here should be killed because they’re an inferior race.”
Even setting aside the staggering psychopathy of the modern right - their complete and utter disregard for the lives of other human beings - I don’t even begin to understand how any human being could have so little self-awareness.

Lately this series keeps feeling like tragedy and heartbreak are looming just barely off-stage.
- Comment on Trump literally referred to himself as "King". Surely conservatives are against a monarchy forming? 2 months ago:
Conservatives don’t care.
Their blinkers don’t allow them to even see things like that. They’re just focused on seeing the people they hate made to suffer, and as long as that happens, they’re content. The rest is just trivia.
- Comment on why do people say annoying/rude stuff and then tell you “it was a joke!” 2 months ago:
In the terms of the cliche, they’re trying to have their cake and eat it too.
They want the immediate gratification of being rude assholes, so they do it just long enough for that initial rush, then they back away to try to avoid the consequences.
- Comment on What do you think of anarchism? 2 months ago:
I think that if humanity can manage to survive long enough, anarchism is inevitable.
It’s essentially the adult stage of human society - the point at which humans collectively and consistently, rather than just individually and situationally, can be trusted to generally do the right thing simply because it’s the right thing and therefore the most reasonable thing to do.
Forvtgectime being snd the foreseeable future though, humanity is nowhere even close to that. Through the course of history, human society has managed to advance to about the equivalent of adolescence. There’s still a long way to go.
In spite of that, I do identify as an anarchist, but my advocacy is focused on the ideal and the steps humanity as a whole has to take to achieve it. I think it’s plainly obvious that it cannot be implemented, since any mechanism by which it might be inplemented would necessarily violate the very principles that define it. It can only be willingly adopted by each and all (or close enough as makes no meaningful difference), and that point will come whenever (if) it comes.

It’s unfortunate that the mod devs were so thoroughly fucked over, but their response was perfect.

Or framed another way, representative of a noxious vocal minority that has to some degree succeeded in bullying companies into accommodating them bemoans the factvthat the companies would really rather that they just fuck off.

Is this “Soros” in the room with you now? Can you describe him to me?
