Need to let loose a primal scream without collecting footnotes first? Have a sneer percolating in your system but not enough time/energy to make a whole post about it? Go forth and be mid: Welcome to the Stubsack, your first port of call for learning fresh Awful youāll near-instantly regret.
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 cutānāpaste it into its own post ā thereās no quota for posting and the bar really isnāt that high.
The post Xitter web has spawned soo many āesotericā right wing freaks, but thereās no appropriate sneer-space for them. Iām talking redscare-ish, reality challenged āculture criticsā who write about everything but understand nothing. Iām talking about reply-guys who make the same 6 tweets about the same 3 subjects. Theyāre inescapable at this point, yet I donāt see them mocked (as much as they should be)
Like, there was one dude a while back who insisted that women couldnāt be surgeons because they didnāt believe in the moon or in stars? I think each and every one of these guys is uniquely fucked up and if I canāt escape them, I would love to sneer at them.
Does TP0 have an point heās trying to push with this thread? Itās disingenuous enough that it feels like thereās an agenda, but at the same time what could the point even be? Fuck cancer patients?

Possibly anti-universal-healthcare fearmongering. This statās been going around US conservative circles. And I even typed that before seeing the thread ended with:
āDear healthy people: donāt let the sickly suck away all your moneyā
I mean, you know what the point is.
Itās eugenics. Itās always eugenics.
Leukemia patients are always over-represented in their data because itās so much easier to use the calipers on people with no hair.
Okay first of all what the fuck is a TP0? I swear you guys just make those people up and theyāre lazier and lazier written each time.
Second, whatās the point here? Like, is either of the tweets making a point? Cause it just sounds like someone discovered why universal healthcare is a good idea? The fact that spending is so unequal is quite literally the entire point in favour of having universal insurance?
Also
Now do how much of the population gets 24% of the income :)
Cremieux used to post to Reddit as user Tr***yPornO (with the slur instead of the asterisks). Nobody here wanted to call him that, so it was rapidly abbreviated TPO or TP0. He posted the same breathtaking racist shit with low quality cites that didnāt check out as he has since. He also told all manner of inconsistent lies about who he was.
Speaking of breathtaking racism with low quality cites, does anyone remember ebola chan? He was my favorite because he was a reactionary with 4chan temperament, so heād mald when pushed instead of spewing out word salad.
At least he wears his kink proudly, not many rightwing weirdoes would just admit theyāre really into that.
I wouldnāt be too quick to conclude itās that - Iāve seen a number of these creeps wear/handle-pick slurs as a trying-to-be-funny pejorative
Oh Iām sure heās trying to be edgy, but in that case thereās nothing that would trigger him more than what Iāve said :>
TP0 is the OSI connection-mode transport layer protocolās transport protocol class 0 duh.

I thought it meant āthread poster zeroā because I never really understood the order in which one reads tweets and replies, so when I saw āTP0ā, three frames later I already deduced an entire vocabulary of terms to designate each persona in a twitter screenshot
from the top down with either dfs or bfs depending on how you found the thread to spread, or from the inside out (by clicking through QTs until you get to the root). because twitter totally made browsing this shit easy.
whatās hard.
oh man iād forgotten St Rev, a favourite minor nrx from the mid-2010s
Iād never heard of him. His latest tweet is complaining about the left wing slant on his thread and he says that you canāt āget away from the culture war I guessā. Yet every fifth post below is a rage post about libs and lefties.
Itās like how all topics are either the cishet white standard quo or āpolitical.ā Raging about libs and lefties is standard quo and telling a dimwit they are a dimwit is āculture war.ā
thatās just āpoors donāt deserve healthcareā what else
otoh arenāt they going against their benefactors (old rich ghouls)?
christ and itās always the fucking bad-faith bullshit arguments. I bet if you pulled another dimension to the same fucking numbers there youād instantly find some Rather Interesting correlations with income brackets, and if you pulled a dimension for care/spend class youād find Another interesting correlation
I wish these people just fucking wouldnāt, gah
