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 youā€™ll 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 cutā€™nā€™paste it into its own post ā€” thereā€™s no quota for posting 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.

Last weekā€™s thread

    I donā€™t have too much coherent to say right now

    fuck the fascists for what theyā€™ve done and what they intend to do

    fuck the neoliberals for doing their best to convince marginalized people that they shouldnā€™t defend themselves against a terrible fate

    fuck the accelerationists for pumping shitheaded propaganda into the fediverse, for the victory lap theyā€™re taking now, and for the general idea that their revolution is worth our deaths

    shitā€™s about to get very hard and very weird and I canā€™t stress enough how important it is to be careful who you trust with your life

      strong agree

      minor upside: itā€™s going to be a good time to make lists of people who suddenly feel comfortable to mask off

      what a surprise, the thread all the leftist shitposters on mastodon boosted about how youā€™re a class traitor if you donā€™t vote for the Green Party (who I donā€™t buy as socialist) or ā€œany other socialist partyā€ (fucking who??? am I supposed to write ā€œsocialismā€ on my ballot in crayon???) conveniently went missing

      anyway post your favorite fuckhead accelerationist here, mastodonā€™s a shooting gallery tonight

        i do love how the ā€œanti-imperialistā€ protest vote against harris was a choice between like three or four putin apologists. the state of the US left is really fucked up and i donā€™t want to look at it ever again.

        Didnā€™t the Green Party woman also just go ā€˜Iā€™m pro Israelā€™ the day for the election or so? Which I think is one of the reason she might have picked up a few moves (the idea she might be more pro gaza I mean).

        Iā€™ve intentionally been avoiding feeds the last few days because I just do not have the headspace for it, but I quickly checked on shit now

        and

        fuck
