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.
(Credit and/or blame to David Gerard for starting this.)
Good video overall, despite some misattributions.
Biggest point I disagree with: āHe could have started a cult, but he didnātā
Now I get that thereās only so much Toxic exposure to Yudās writings, but itās missing a whole chunk of his persona/Ʀsthetics. And ultimately I thing boils down to the earlier part that stange did notice (via echo of su3su2u1): āOh Arenāt I so clever for manipulating you into thinking Iām not a cult leader, by warning you of the dangers of cult leaders.ā
And I think even expect his followers to recognize the āsubterfugeā.
