Centrism is basically being the woman in that story about King Solomon who's like "yeah, cutting the baby in half seems like a good idea, that works for me".

Who is this Anne Teefa that these boys are so scared of?

There’s no use debating a feeling. It’s time to change how we engage with Jordan Peterson.

I think it does

He is completely brainwashed

I was not ready for that and couldn't manage that in the best way, to say at least

But I'm starting to think that facebook datacenters should be bombed, after having given a brief warning to the personnel

This is Goebbel's dream

facebook is a machine to weaponize peole's weaknesses against themselves, for the best buyer

It's the most terrific propaganda machine ever created directed with no moral compass and no supervision at all

*invents bot that makes twitter brilliant, but to use it you have to tweet the following into a thread

"@elonmusk @jordanpeterson you are not intelligent and your fans suck and you both suck"

People who tweet "please unroll this" in a birdsite thread.

😐

imagine inventing a bot that insists you ruin birdsite a little more for everyone else every time you want to use it.

The Nerd praises for Elon Musk are an expression of nerdism's inherent fascination and love for the dictator. The "big man" and "hero" to make decisions.

That fascist idea is deeply woven into nerdism's core beliefs.

My current favourite flavour of musk apologist is the "at least he tried" aka the "he did more than you". re his dumb idea to help rescue those cave kids.

Even the guy in charge of the rescue operation told him his ideas were shite.

Can we all just admit it, reddit is a hate speech platform, the largest in the world. They can shut down subs that trade beer, or brass, or link to sales for gun parts, but banking racism is way too hard.

Reddit CEO tells user, “we are not the thought police,” then suspends that user

Reddit boss thinks it's impossible to ban hate speech on the platform. 🤔
