Need to let loose a primal scream without collecting footnotes first? Have a sneer percolating in your system but not enough time/energy to make a whole post about it? Go forth and be mid: Welcome to the Stubsack, your first port of call for learning fresh Awful you’ll near-instantly regret.
Any awful.systems sub may be subsneered in this subthread, techtakes or no.
If your sneer seems higher quality than you thought, feel free to cut’n’paste it into its own post — there’s no quota for posting and the bar really isn’t that high.
The post Xitter web has spawned soo many “esoteric” right wing freaks, but there’s no appropriate sneer-space for them. I’m talking redscare-ish, reality challenged “culture critics” who write about everything but understand nothing. I’m talking about reply-guys who make the same 6 tweets about the same 3 subjects. They’re inescapable at this point, yet I don’t see them mocked (as much as they should be)
Like, there was one dude a while back who insisted that women couldn’t be surgeons because they didn’t believe in the moon or in stars? I think each and every one of these guys is uniquely fucked up and if I can’t escape them, I would love to sneer at them.
(Credit and/or blame to David Gerard for starting this.)
Friend of the sub Scott doing more supporting of rightwing extremists. Remember when we cried wolf? Good times.
I used to cry wolf. I still cry wolf, but I used to, too
also that bluesk (idk what the bluesky equivalent of a tweet is) is sign-in walled, I can’t read it
"Skeet" if only to spite Jay Graber

I always liked “bleat” myself, with its slightly mocking overtones, but it never took off.
Goddamn
It's Jonathan Ladd saying,
With a link to Scott Adderall's blog.
Should be noted that it's mutual, Hanania has gone to great lengths to suck up to siskind, going back to at least the designer mouth bacteria thing.
Whelp, I made the mistake of following the link and am now just uselessly angry. Here's a link to the excellent If Books Could Kill episode on this bullshit, in case anyone else made the same mistake and also needs a palate cleanser.
Thanks, should have checked if it was readable to the rest of the world. That is what I get for beign lazy and not typing out a full post.
