He is the epitome of privilege. A criminal that not only faces no consequences but gets rewarded. A temper tantrum throwing cry baby yet some how doesn’t affect his character (to about half the country).

I had the realization about this distinction several years ago regarding reddit. Over the years of attrition by various controversies, reddit no longer has moderators. They’ve all left. There are moderators in name but they do not moderate.
Many set the mod bots to do bot things and then fuck right off. To be fair moderating global scale messageboard is kind of an impossible task. Much less to do it for free. Can’t fault the the old school internet moderators for leaving.
On another note. There’s no way to tiptoe around the issue of intelligence. The baseline level of discourse just isn’t capable of hard topics as it used to be. People seem to like the social drama that arises out of lack of moderation. That biases towards the lowest common denominators. It’s like a modern day Jerry Springer shock jock entertainment. But live and interactive! Social media users seem to revel in it. Bread and circuses…
Thiel is one of reddits earliest investors. spez is a Thiel boy.
This whole time I can’t believe how reddit managed to hold up a facade of being a cool progressive college student platform. They pulled the wool over everyone’s eyes. It’s as if they put lipstick on /pol/ and /b/. And everyone was like, alright a hip liberal platform. Sure if you ignore the iceberg of right wing bootlicking shit beneath the surface of the default subreddits.
This comment is in every single thread. Always.
Do you guys work off the same notes or what.
The NPC type people. It’s like they don’t exactly have a conscious that can be spoken with.
Some of you reading this might think I’m referring to individuals I think are dumb but it’s not that. I don’t know if it makes sense there’s a type of person that thinks they’re above others. And that it is them who are interacting with everyone else who are NPCs.
Like, dude. Snap out of it and talk to people like a normal human being.
The clothing color could be due to lighting. Remember the blue black dress meme? Multiple backpacks is too easy. So that’s a non-issue.
That being said. Why isn’t anyone considering that maybe the cops couldn’t give a shit either. But they have to try because the money people said so.
Something has happened which nobody probably not even Republicans thought could happen. Reality does not have liberal bias.
Democrats are still operating on this assumption. They figure people will vote for them by virtue of some 60/40 (or whatever unbalanced) scale that naturally leans left. Unfortunately I don’t think they have gotten the wake up call even now. They cannot just do whatever the fuck (like being a party of the rich) under the assumption that if they get enough people to vote regardless of political affiliation then they will win.
It’s why Harris grew her support among voters making over $100,000 a year and lost support among voters making less.
This has been very evident on certain parts of the internet. Especially spaces where the tech workers hang out. They all talk like they can identify with working class folk. You simply cannot point out they are out of touch with the working class without causing them serious brain malfunction.
“B-but my avocado toast cost of living”, fuck I wish they would can it already. Nobody making over $100,000, certainly not well above that is struggling that hard. You aren’t. Sorry (not really) but that’s the facts. Always some wise guy got to chime in with some anecdote about how they personally are though.
It’s not just the party Democrats but liberals and leftists making over $100,000 a year who live in another reality. One where they are the stuffy old rich people. Only they do not see themselves this way. They are having a very hard time seeing it. This is where the Republicans were pre-Trump. The dead end party stuck in their old rich people ways. The tables have turned.
That includes you, millennials. Yes, you the rich ones. You are rich old people now.
Still don’t get it.
Kinda weird they’re making demands of men after divulging they’re nonbinary
What’s weird?
And when they lose they take the high road of blaming themselves. It’s en exercise in self flagellation.
6 months is nothing for an internet troll. They go at it for years. Decades even.
They don’t hide it on their own boards. The right wing spaces. It’s a real thing they do.
The two things we’re talking about are not mutually exclusive. There are people who spent too much time in those “performative space”. They get incited by agitators too. It’s a clusterfuck.
It is. A big tell is their vernacular. It’s not leftists. It’s someone else pretending to be.
Another one is their interests or hobbies. They do not talk about these topics the same way the people they pretend to be because they are not the people they pretend to be.
I’ve been chronically online enough to be able to get a sense of it. They often slip. Some times it’s so obvious it’s a kid who is trying to copy the more adept ones.
A lot of minority subreddits on reddit are so fake too. It’s 21st century blackface minstrel shows. Easy to dupe casual users. If you’re chronically online long enough you can tell.
ETA: This is conspiratorial as the people who get caught all the time forgetting to switch their alt accounts. Can’t reply to the mod for some reason so I guess I’m done here.
There’s some fictional reality where young people yearn for the factories. Ignoring the second half of the story where that actual generation dreamed of a world where their children didn’t have toil in manufacturing.
Also ignoring the fact that wages have been going up for lowest earners.
