Have a sneer percolating in your system but not enough time/energy to make a whole post about it? Go forth and be mid!
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, thereās no quota here 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.
Guy who was previously featured here for championing the merits of dropping the n-word when meeting new (white) people in order to judge them worthy had an extensive twitter rant about how scott alexander may be an actual prophet, while quote-twitting another similarly afflicted person.
If you bother, which I barely did, this is what youāre in for:
Man I do NOT fuck with TracingWoodgrains. I assume that most of the people who interact with Hannania - and his ilk of wordy r9k robots and reply guys - is a a crypto-reactionary. But I think Tracey just really really likes tweeting and culture war fence straddling? Somehow itās still obnoxious.
An assessment of a writerās skill, with no regards to prose. This is what happens when the only text you consume come from techie microbloggers
ex-cultist goes āthese fucking peopleā
āExā-cultist? This dude seems nuts
well, the path is long and winding
this is normal actually
