Ah yeah, I totally forgot about that! And the Walmart was up in the fuckin Arctic circle so Pitbull was the biggest celebrity who’d ever come to visit by a clear mile. It was a bullying move that ended up being an unintended good thing.

I will destroy you.

Right? Meanwhile he seemed to be miserable the whole fucking day.

The last time I talked to a venomous hive of TERFs they thought I was a trans man because they couldn’t imagine a cis man defending trans people, so they tried to hurt my feelings by saying I’d never be a real man and I couldn’t stop crying with laughter while I asked them if any of them knew what their genotype was

Oh agreed, I just hated that they made fun of all that shit. Like I didn’t care and still don’t care what someone has as an identity. I’ll respect whatever. It doesn’t impact my life at all.

They made fun of otherkin just to butter you up to mock trans people

Well yes, but that wasn’t the point you were making, at least I thought. You said that what made the book good was that it captured the imagination of millions of kids and it doesn’t contain your ideology. I was saying it does contain her ideology, which is why there was no real revolution or anything in it, and Voldemort lost on a technicality.

if you write a book that captures the imagination of millions of kids and doesn’t contain your ideology in it, you’ve written a good book.

Her book is neoliberal as fuck though

Wait so, holy shit, no wonder it didn’t make any fucking sense to me. None of it was defined beforehand and it was revealed like all of her other sudden twists that explained everything but actually were held together with glue and spit in other plots of the other books too. The entire series is just fucking M. Night Shyamalan all the way the fuck down.

Alan Moore said that Rowling used ill-defined magical principles but you laid out precisely why he said that. He was written off as a crank for saying it, but he’s absolutely correct.

Nite Owl and Silk Spectre were intended to be the protagonists of the series, not Rorschach. Moore intended them to be a more neutral, non philosophical point of view while the other characters embodied utilitarianism, pragmatism, and so on.

Yes, they love him because he’s lumpenprole and not because he’s a savage vigilante butcher or anything

That doesn’t change my answer

People who like Rorschach fucking terrify me

If you’re a cis dude then no, I deny and rebuke you

🥰

Google isn’t gonna do shit, those nerds fear me

I’ll guarantee it’s not the length of what I shared that’s preventing people from reading.

Yes

Yes that’s basically half the posts here right now

This is a bad take, chief, and here’s a few thoughts on why.

TheDonald was a cesspit of hatred, bile, and classism that went unchecked for years. It wasn’t only tolerated, it flourished on reddit and turned the rest of it sour. If not for Chapo providing a counterweight to their incessant raids and subtle gaslighting of local community subreddits, it would have been even worse. You want echo chambers? TheDonald already was one. They could exist unchallenged in their space despite sorely needing it.

The left has rarely been afforded the same luxury to gather together, to speculate, to debate, to exist, without being broken up violently by the right and their cronies. This is nothing like what TheDonald is doing because they’re creating an escapist echo chamber to jerk each other off and clap each other on the back for being well-off white dipshits.

We are creating a space to safely interact with each other, a rarity that has not been afforded, especially in such volume, for the left.

Just read any thread about China, about electoralism, about anything. You’re having higher level discussions because you don’t have to drag down the discourse to 101 level horseshit just to make your point. This is hardly an echo chamber. Your thoughts here do not go unchallenged. Our ideology is not that of fear.

So stop worrying and post already, Jesus.
