why are the lower classes...

If any statement starts off like this, it's time to get the guillotines out.

    I love (read: hate) every time some hypothetical example of pedophilia gets discussed and it's like "okay but hear me out, the victim gets a gorillion dollars, an island, a robot monkey friend, the cure for cancer, and technically all of the emotional trauma gets offloaded to their clone that gets created from a sample of ethically sourced DNA. Would it then be okay?"

    Just... fuck off.

    Seriously it's like "oh here's a fucking Rube-Goldberg procession of contrived scenarios designed to reach a point where you finally agree there's a point I'm trying to make and not just making you participate in me cranking my brain hog."

    It's philosophy 101 meets edgelord meets bazinga meets pedophile apologia. It's a quadrilogy of shit. I fucking hate these people so much. Helluva way to start my day.

    There's a reason why big-yud and his "LessWr*ng" cult are so preoccupied with "thought experiments" that pretty much always involve justifying torture and the like.

    I don't know if those kinds of creepy fucks can ever be rid of the brainworms wriggling around in them, or if there's anything there at all but brainworms

    lmao that site became pathetic almost immediately. They all just regurgitate Nietzche and came up with dialectical materialism, but since they're STEM lords, none of them have actually read Nietzche or Marx. Then they fawn over one another for this "deep and insightful" posting. Nothing they say is new, but got damn if anyone were to point this out.

    I've gotten howled at before for saying so, but I'll say it again: techbro cults like that are infested with self-described "autodidacts" which is a fancy way of saying "doesn't actually fucking know what they profess to know but will bumblefuck anyway, sometimes boosted by venture capital" my-hero

    Yeah, it's fucked up, but even mocking the idea of "autodidacts" and all the harm the particularly rich ones cause is somehow upsetting to a certain bunch. It's like I become the gestalt manifestation of every wicked petty tyrant teacher that ever gave someone detention, my power only being potentially challenged by awesome radical rebels that say "actually I am an 'autodidact' and I already know everything" or something. Those rebels without a clue tend to have a belief that they can easily distinguish reality entirely for themselves without even an acknowledgement of the accumulated knowledge and expertise of everyone that came before. No wonder such smug-yet-credulous folks tend to fall for snake oil salesmen so easily. debord-tired

    Bit idea: Nazi complaining about how many friendships they lost over supporting a country perpetuating genocide

    She sucks so much, for the uninformed, Brianna Wu is on the board for Progressive Victory, a PAC that funds shitty centrist streamers getting their stream kids to do extremely questionably effective voter outreach. She uses it as vehicle to insert her charisma void and terrible opinons in front of new audiences of unwary viewers.

    ( I think to her credit Emma Viglend seems to have disengaged from them after October 7)

    "I have a high IQ" when said out loud, voluntarily, is almost always a red flag for some creepy techbro adjacent shit. epsteingelion

    It's a clever tactic that's also common in online PVP games: "MY TEAM SUCKS" has the unspoken implication of "I AM SUPERIOR TO THE REST OF MY TEAM AND THIS LOSS ISN'T MY FAULT WHATSOEVER" heated-gamer-moment

    Hey Brianna has it struck you that maybe you have lost a ton of friends because they have principals and you support a genocide?

    Brianna Wu? That zionist scumwoman who rolled her eyes every time someone brought up Israel's genocidal nature? That crackeress? That absolute Babylonian wretch? Doesn't surprise me that this neo-klansman is the kind of company she keeps.
