No, don't tip toe. Actually do something. Go agitate. Get fucking angry. Throw a brick through a window. Start a community garden and call it the "Fuck Trump Garden", but calling him taco on the internet is probably the least helpful thing you can be doing. Do it, chicken. Fucking do it. Bawk bawk bawk bawk. Chicken.

I don't see the benefit, no. What exactly is the end goal? Best case scenario he chickens out and gets all flustered on Truth social and everybody has a good laugh, worst case scenario he doesn't chicken out because people keeping calling him chicken, and his petty little ass does something even more fucked up.

Like, isn't that the whole point of bullying someone and calling them a chicken to specifically get them to do the thing?

"Jump, chicken, you won't do it!". "Boooock bock bock bock!"

Does that sound like someone that doesn't want the person they're talking to to jump?

Which is why, from this point forward, I will assume anybody saying this TACO shit is actually trying to goad Trump into an even more extreme response.

From now on, whenever I see somebody doing the TACO thing, I'm going to assume they are accelerationists trying to get Trump to do something horrific. I don't know why else you would do it. Surely nobody has deluded themselves into thinking they can just bully the guy out of office and then everything goes back to normal, right? Right?

But the shit boxes people were driving in the 60s were VW Beetles, an objectively good looking car. Easily the most popular car of the 60s was the Mustang, an objectively beautiful car.

The real shit boxes didn't start popping up until after the oil crisis in 73.

Anarchist checking in: I vote. I don't live in a communist utopia without money or borders or hierarchy, I live in THIS fucked up world, so yeah, voting is necessary.

You're right, is Social Democracy. But that's where we are, politically these days. The largest socialist organization in then U.S. (the DSA) is ostensibly not socialist in policy. Anything slightly left of RAGING corporate handouts and bombing brown people is COMMUNISM now.

Being the place that people go after getting banned from Reddit has affected things here

Yeah, but to the average person, the scientific definition doesn't matter squat.

Had sex with a child=pedophile, which is the way the term is being used here. Nobody is interested in getting into the nuance of specifically, psychologically, why. And ti he honest, I don't think its particularly productive to overall conversation.

Best I can guess? Jeffrey Epstein was once a young, under-qualified, math teacher in New York?

Spelling question (self.ukcasual)
 

So, a few of my friends and I (Americans) all use a UK spellings for a few words (not all the same ones each), and we've all determined that it must have something to do with interacting with Brits regularly on the Internet during the same years that we were learning to spell.

Is this a thing that any of you do or anyone you know?
