Note: all the talk I mention is online talk. Nobody in my irl life talks about social media dynamics ever, thank GOD

What do normal people - people who don't pay for twitter, or sneer at rationalists - think of Twitter atp?

Went on to Twitter (my mistake) after seeing Inside Out 2 because it's the latest kid's movie to feature [trope that I found passe that I can't figure out how to spoil inline] and I see a post on my feed from "HBD Chick".

And I'm like okay, that has to be "happy birthday, right?". Nah, her third retweet is creamy porno redux.

Just like all the other right wingers and embarrassingly enthusiastic neoliberals and occasional Musk fans, I don't follow her or anybody that follows her, there's literally no connection or personal interest.

I feel like the post Elon shift is really understated for how bad the site's gotten. Like I see more people talk about how Instagram reels is racist than I do about the average twitter replies section. I know a lot of left leaning people fled for bluer pastures, but I'm surprised you don’t see more buzz about it from regular, non-power users.

"Yeah, they're good people; we would hang out more, but my brain isn't leaking out of my ears"

Woow, TIL. I thought he was halfway decent from the way he flatly called sailer a racist (low bar I know), but his consistent fraternization with Hannania seemed strange to me.

Very late, but for the love of God, make sure you raise your black child with enough respect for themselves and their race that they'll avoid debating twitter racists. Make sure your router drops requests to 4chan.org! Disable DNS over HTTPS on their devices! Run all their traffic through a proxy, MitM every request for an image and have a chat with them if you start seeing a lot of pfp sized pictures of roman statues. You need your kid to avoid these people the way they should avoid a hot stove.

I genuinely don't know, but I would believe it 100%. He seems like an arrdestiny-esque debate pervert in a reply-guy world. I think a "left wing" motte would suit him

He also wants us to know that Hannania is much less right than he's made out to be.. Richard gave him a signal boost and is cool with gay people! Unfortunately, Tracey hasn't grasped that "right winger" is simply a metonym for "thinks blacks are the second least domesticable African animal after zebras"

Does everyone else see this? These are the exact type of out of town haters we really want. I also think calling LLMs all but delusional is too generous and I mean that unironically.

Lmao

Wow, the commenters seem surprisingly...not ok with the guest choices. Especially Hannania

One problem with discussing this is that we here arguably have an asymmetric discourse situation.

"I'd like to tell you my thoughts on these various eugenicists, but they would be ~~repulsive~~, ~~fedposts~~, impossible to convey accurately in public discourse.

This guy's vision of the future is Charles Murray's coming apart, except with different groups of Habsburgs enclosed in border walls
