The problem for them is that the cops are actually the army of the rich and state and national government is controlled by billionaire lickers. They could go to DSA meetings and picket, but at best they could get a DSA member to be rude to them and then complain about it.
Aella’s dumb fucking sign pisses me off. No shit the 1% pay lots of taxes, they have a lot of money!
These people are convinced it’s the poorest that are getting a free lunch.
There’s a Baudrillard one as well. I have a copy of the feminism one and I think it’s actually very good although very 90s
I don’t know very much about Nietzsche (I never finished reading my cartoon guide to Nietzsche), but I’m still pretty sure this isn’t Nietzsche

I can’t give this the sneer it deserves. More pics will follow
the AI Eater Speaks in a new interview.
What a great creature. Big ears, for hearing people say stupid things about AI.
This article genuinely made me furious on this woman’s behalf. It isn’t like most scenes or spaces are great at handling sexual violence, but in most spaces people would not accuse you of trying to silence and hurt men by saying you were groped!
In the same way that in France, separation of church and state sounds good on paper but means “local government will still sponsor nativity scenes but schoolchildren will be banned from wearing hijabs” in practice.
definitely. plus the woman-hating background radiation of a lot of online communities and media for teenage boys.
i was aware of “left-wing but rancid about women” as a common political perspective in techy fields, but I wasn’t aware of many out and out right-wingers in the FOSS world specifically (beyond the odd TempleOS type kook).
I’ve always thought of linux as a vaguely commie thing but it seems like a) there were more libertarians in there than I thought, b) using linux appeals to some very right wing freaks who don’t like the idea of not being in total control, and c) there’s a right wing computer culture promoted by online influencers to nerdy young men, not dissimilar to right wing gamer culture.
The above site is hosted on neocities. I’ve been involved in the small web/personal web/indie web for a while (almost 6 years now, Jesus) and I knew there’s a more right wing side to it but I hadn’t come across it much (except for digdeeper linked to above, whose online privacy guides I read and took seriously before he started posting about Covid and I realized he was a conspiracy theorist). Then recently I found a neonazi’s site on neocities through a Christian webring* and spent a while looking around in morbid fascination.
*You can’t join if you support abortion or gay people, but apparently they don’t check to make sure you’re not a Nazi. I’m tempted to set up a competing webring for Christians with normal views…
Futrelle was an AI guy for a bit, weirdly.
What a cunt.
