Have a sneer percolating in your system but not enough time/energy to make a whole post about it? Go forth and be mid!

Any awful.systems sub may be subsneered in this subthread, techtakes or no.

If your sneer seems higher quality than you thought, feel free to cutā€™nā€™paste it into its own post, thereā€™s no quota here and the bar really isnā€™t that high

The post Xitter web has spawned soo many ā€œesotericā€ right wing freaks, but thereā€™s no appropriate sneer-space for them. Iā€™m talking redscare-ish, reality challenged ā€œculture criticsā€ who write about everything but understand nothing. Iā€™m talking about reply-guys who make the same 6 tweets about the same 3 subjects. Theyā€™re inescapable at this point, yet I donā€™t see them mocked (as much as they should be)
Like, there was one dude a while back who insisted that women couldnā€™t be surgeons because they didnā€™t believe in the moon or in stars? I think each and every one of these guys is uniquely fucked up and if I canā€™t escape them, I would love to sneer at them.

    (excuse the ignorance, havenā€™t been following this close enough on account of spoons)

    40-50y req from prosecutor, wat - whatā€™s the story there? were they unsure they could secure more if they asked for[0]? is there some kind of fuckery around max sentencing because of charge class?

    [0] as in: since sbf was declared guilty, the sentencing is going to happen regardless, but the value of assigned years is variable, and the assigned value could be below prosecutor request for $legalsystem reasons?[1] [1] I am not a US legal system enjoyer, so I donā€™t have comprehensive knowledge on the minutae of that demented clusterfuck operates
