this goes hard. I didn't realize how much I needed to verbally hear some sanity after the past couple days, thanks for sharing.

Someone who I recently reconnected with (and thought had some left leanings) said something along the lines of "both sides should be glassed." I tried talking with them about it before they said they're just tired of it all and emotionally drained. Maybe I was too nice because now I feel some regret for not telling them they're a fucking asshole.
It angers me that priveledged people get to just casually disassociate with a topic because something's too mentally taxing to imagine while people are currently living in it. Yeah there's not a lot you as an individual can do, but maybe the least you can muster is to understand it and not call for a both-sides genocide.
Me too, I thought it was a big shouldered frothing chud instead of a turkey though.
I still can't unsee it
I think current internet is the beginning of the problem kojima envisioned needing a solution. I could see search engines requiring sites be "published" or some other BS. Rather than silence wrongthink it gets tossed in with all the spam and filtered out.
Yeah it's really bad. I was looking up information on healthcare coverage and it's "8 things you need to know" or "36 questions you might have" before selecting a healthcare plan.
I was thinking it'd be great to have an option to filter out any list results for a search engine.

Liberalism is when ~~you land on boardwalk hotel and owe 2,000.00 to the smiling jackal sitting next to you. You start to beg but they just say "Sorry rules are rules" so you mortgage nearly all you own and are short $4 and they just say "Sorry, rules are rules" so you mortgage Baltic avenue and still have a few bucks left over.~~ Bank error in your favor collect $200.00
Metro last light is even better. Highly recommend giving it a whirl, the story is much more engaging.
Metro games are a good mix of action with a dose of horror/existential dread
Her bits are always fun, even when they don't quite land. Her Elon Musk vids are also great.
I was tempted to check out Kwebbelkops vids out of morbid curiosity. His AI voice, script, effects, and the underlying content are just terrible. Ro calls it "slop" which is normally a vaguely affectionate term for bad content that's mindless but still enjoyable. These vids are anti-mind grade.
It's good timing with Jimmy Mcgees vid too - "The irony that we're using AI to automate the production of art instead of the things everybody hates shouldn't be lost on us"
Truth minus Hope minus Decency is what we really need fr fr
What are you quoting? Are you so mindless that you would share an empty thought you had in quotation marks and then sarcastically respond to yourself?
Try quoting the article and using word combinations that mean something instead.
