Fascists provide easy (but often fake) answers to hard problems. Loneliness, the fear of replacement, that kind of thing.

And to what would not having life accomplish? What is the point of not having life? How is there beauty in the lack of life when only things that have life even have a concept of beauty? Your viewpoint requires you to believe in some type of inherent value that doesn’t exist.
He strikes me as more a rube that occasionally picks up alt-right talking points than a dedicated follower. At least on one occasion he called out Moon, a shitty right wing video essayist, for lying, but he went really hard on anti-Sweet Baby Inc. content.
So I guess he could unintentionally? But intention doesn’t really matter here. His fanbase probably leans right too.
I cannot exaggerate to you that this 100% fulfils the negative perceptions of European governments that American isolationists have. The article says they cut Ukraine funding to fund social programs. The right-wing narrative in America is that needing to have the huge military is why we have a weak social safety net (not true btw, med4all for example would save Uncle Sam money) which is framed as “we pay for European social programs.” But here’s a government… literally cutting military spending in the middle of aiding a real war that could be highly consequential to the country in question to fund social programs.
How is an American supposed to argue in favor of funding the defense of Europe when the richest country in Europe doesn’t want to fund the defense of Europe? If Germany gets to decide to go for “Germany first,” how long until “Britain first?” “France first?” “Italy first?” Will Ukraine funding just be a hot potato that everyone will claim is important but nobody actually wants to do?
When European countries started raising military spending in response to a threat, it weakened American isolationist arguments. But this strengthens them. I hope no other European countries pull this shit.
No body hair, straight hair, no scalp issues, and more feminine face.
If I can extend it to the brain, no family history of schizophrenia (I don’t have it myself but it’s the reason I intend to abstain from psychedelic drugs.)
France really is just America in a different language and on a time delay.
Nobody in America believes “art will change the world” shit anymore. For good reason.
Pretty much, the Republican party all the way up to Trump doesn’t even hide that they’re anti-Democracy, and attempts to break democratic systems that underpin our entire government nay our way of life are basically out in the open.
Hope it’s not as bad as I think (“as bad as I think” means “mass killings;”) What else can I do? Everyone else here seems to be privileged enough to have the skills or plain cash to say “I’ll go somewhere else,” isn’t as worried as they should be, or think they’re Apocalypse Badass Man (see: accelerationists.) That’s not me. I’m unskilled, poor, I have the self-introspection to know I don’t have what it takes to be a revolutionary.
FOSS is strongly supported by communists, but there’s also strong support for it from right-libertarians (when I was younger I remember the stereotype being that Linux users believed taxation was theft)
(I agree that the way FOSS operates is anarcho-communist in nature; I just think people with fringe politics are more likely to support FOSS in general)
I’m no combat expert, but I’ve heard some people say numbers don’t win modern wars so a draft isn’t necessary.
With China in particular it would be poking the bear; recruitment is on the decline in both China and USA.
A while back I remember hearing “dying” was only accurate in the West, but that was a matter of years ago so it may or may not still be true.
To me it sounds like this is saying they’d have to make their own hardware if they wanted to make Dreamcast or Saturn Mini, not that they intend to do so.
Huh? Source on this? Their latest arcade board line uses Intel CPUs and nVidia GPUs. That’s the only hardware they make right?
My issue is that this is the kind of law I’d traditionally associate with China, and. I do think we should be harder on foreign influence but I think it erodes our freedom to do it like this. Especially given that nothing is being done about AIPAC or white nationalist Russian asset Elon Musk.
I also worry a conservative will buy it and boost manosphere, white nationalist, etc. content more. And as it is TikTok boosts these people, intentionally or not.
I know it’s not completely unprecedented, something similar happened to Grindr, but this is a higher profile case.
Grief…doesn’t motivate you. In movies, guys like me, people who have had loved ones killed through prejudices and big evil organizations 🐘 do something about it. Whether that’s activism or something more illegal. But I was way more aggressive about my political views before my girlfriend died. Now it’s like…I can’t muster up the ability to give enough of a shit to do more than vote.
It has reduced the size of synthesizers, or rolled them into software. Just about everything else needs to be the size it is for physics reasons.
It makes me feel like crossdressing, so I do. Occasionally I see an outfit that needs at least B cups to work (usually something with a boob window) and it makes me feel jealous I don’t have that.
But I’m with you, I completely disagree with the comment saying men’s fashion is interesting if you look for it. It’s not, the only forms of men’s fashion that are interesting are the forms that society has labeled “feminine.” Going into a store and seeing all the men’s clothes in neutrals and actual variety in the women’s cemented my interest in crossdressing.
I agree, but seriously the Euroid comments need to go. Too much of it is either privelege and ignorance (“just move bro!”) or active dehumanization (“I live in a CIVILIZED country.”)
The best I can make sense of it is that I make my money as some sort of emo catboy vtuber. Assuming I’m not already reasonably popular, that boils down to how good a streamer I can be and the economic factors of going into the EN vtubing industry after the initial boom. And I’m already at a disadvantage because “emo catboy” is a weak concept that lacks originality.
Yeah the PBS hack was LulzSec
