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 you’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 cut’n’paste it into its own post — there’s no quota for posting and the bar really isn’t that high.
The post Xitter web has spawned soo many “esoteric” right wing freaks, but there’s no appropriate sneer-space for them. I’m talking redscare-ish, reality challenged “culture critics” who write about everything but understand nothing. I’m talking about reply-guys who make the same 6 tweets about the same 3 subjects. They’re inescapable at this point, yet I don’t see them mocked (as much as they should be)
Like, there was one dude a while back who insisted that women couldn’t be surgeons because they didn’t believe in the moon or in stars? I think each and every one of these guys is uniquely fucked up and if I can’t escape them, I would love to sneer at them.
Last week's thread
(Semi-obligatory thanks to @dgerard for starting this)
our good buddy Jordan Lasker aka Cremieux aka TP0 gives a talk to Stanford libertarians
i haven't watched this but i am confident it is the most cursed fuckin thing
one hour thirty frickin eight
Somebody on the twitter is doing an expose on TP0 (This is part 2, part 1 also linked).
Just amazing that he worked for a YC-backed startup ("Warp, accounting and payroll for founders") whose social media team (prolly this dude) just handed out affiliation icons to all manners of like-minded twitter racists.
Butterfly Man Template
Is this “Founder Mode”?
