  • The Nazis were also extremely incompetent when I came to stuff like this. Hitler had generals scrambling behind his back to produce their best weapon, but he kept finding out and making them stop along with tons of other micromanaging.

    Trump is an idiot and so is musk. Most business people are short sighted and fascists even more. They also may be high on their own farts and think the system won’t collapse with them “in charge” like a toddler left in s room full of candles and napalm.

    Not saying that foreign powers aren’t loving this, but they don’t have to have control over it.




  • The problem is for organizations it’s harder to leave because that is where the people you want to reach are. That’s the only reason any org or company is on social media in the first place. If they leave too soon they risk too many people not seeing the things they send out to the community.

    It’s more an individual thing because so many people just have social inertia and haven’t left since everyone they know is already there. The first to leave have to decide if they want to juggle using another platform to keep connections or cut off connections by abandoning the established platform.


  • Ah, it’s always fun how easy it is to trigger conservatives, or at this point regressives or blatant fascists as you conserve nothing.

    Again, if your opinion is “brown people are rapists and murderers”, “kill the gays”, or “Trans people shouldn’t be allowed” you don’t get to complain when we push back by telling you what kind of a monster you are for your actions, and not for who you are as a person.

    You’re the people obsessed with identity politics. That’s all you have as fake-tan Hitler hasn’t even attempted to do anything to make your lives better. He’s not even pretending to do more than the start of racial cleansing and trampling on the few rights trans people gained over the last 5 to 10 years while funneling even more money into billionaire pockets.

    Also, the “so much for the tolerant” left shtick is so tired. Reactionaries always end up there when they have nothing else because they think it’s some sort of “gotcha”. It isn’t. It just shows how simple you world-view is. You don’t understand nuance or context. You probably think Star Trek is only “woke” today when it’s always been progressive for it’s time.

    There is a paradox of tolerance. And that is “the tolerant must be intolerant of the intolerant. Because otherwise, the intolerant win.” Us not willing to tolerate disrespect or hate is not hypocritical…





  • I feel like this kind of reductive language isn’t helpful. They are nazis in the sense that mstters.

    Nazi has for a while been another word for fascist, or at least a particular brand of it. The Republican party as a whole has slowly been moving in this direction my entire life.

    Trump being too stupid to play the long game managed to build a cult around him by speed running fascism, but there is nothing he stands for that the Republican party hasn’t had a long hystory of standing for.

    People denying the facism is how we got here.


  • Like I feel they should want right wing nuts to be mad about the game. They won’t stop talking about media that are mad about and so many conservatives will still buy the thing even just to destroy it and virtue signal to the other idiots.

    The left? Some may still buy it, but most don’t talk about it at all. The idea of “go woke go broke” has always been a message of intent, not reality, at least in the modern era.

    Nothing makes me want to try a game or watch a show more than legitimate, non surface level representation that incels whine about.


  • I guarantee he is projecting how little he works on others. Every accusation these people make is a confession.

    And yes, even the “why do you have to make it your entire personality?” is projection. As much of a cult as maggots are, I think the only real difference is trump is too stupid to use the usual double speak politicians were using before and the base that always was out for blood ate it up. He also gave them phrases and symbols to plaster over all their stuff.

    Yet they will claim someone having a single pride sticker on their car or flag outside their house is “shoving it in their face” while they drive down the road with a 2 or more flags I their car, along with countless number stickers, and a house covered in at least a half dozen flags and signs.

    And no, I’m not exaggerating. I see these trucks (always a shitty truck) and houses regularly where I currently live, and I’m fleeing in a month as I’m queer and one of their targets.
