  • I agree with most of what you wrote here but I have a response to one phrase…

    how can you blame people

    I mean, for me to not blame anyone, I’d have to assume that the vast majority of people are way stupider than I ever knew, or had no access to information to the contrary. And I’ve always thought people are dumb as fuck.

    How can I blame people? Well, even if we assume that people knew nothing at all about the past decade, republicans made it blindingly obvious what a shit option they are. The democrats could’ve come on the stage drooling and babbling about space lasers and only in that case should the choice have been unclear.



  • Yeah I just got a response back from his shit just works alt with a screenshot of a report I made against one of his posts in his community. Unless he’s secretly also the admin of that instance, I’m struggling to understand how that is a thing. Like I said, he taunts users who think they can stop his trolling campaign, and it’s exactly what he’s done in this case. Showing a screenshot of that report is a head scratcher, other than it’s obviously meant to show he knows about the report and that nothing will ever come of it











  • I didn’t. I thought the enlightenment was more of a move away from superstition and toward reason, but never once did I think it addressed capitalism. I also don’t remember ever thinking it was any sort of absolute movement. I mean shit, look around five minutes, we have never had a reason to think society is based on science. It’s based on competing human impulses, just so happens that greed is a heavyweight champ in that ring.
