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 youāll 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 cutānāpaste it into its own post ā thereās no quota for posting and the bar really isnāt that high.
The post Xitter web has spawned soo many āesotericā right wing freaks, but thereās no appropriate sneer-space for them. Iām talking redscare-ish, reality challenged āculture criticsā who write about everything but understand nothing. Iām talking about reply-guys who make the same 6 tweets about the same 3 subjects. Theyāre inescapable at this point, yet I donāt see them mocked (as much as they should be)
Like, there was one dude a while back who insisted that women couldnāt be surgeons because they didnāt believe in the moon or in stars? I think each and every one of these guys is uniquely fucked up and if I canāt escape them, I would love to sneer at them.
(Taking over for Gerard this time. Special thanks to him for starting this.)
Nr 7 would be amusing if the context was not so evil. Itās weird also how they allow gay but not transgender (oh no I said the word!), but I guess the question is āfor how longāā¦
Nr 8 is justā¦ wow. Very surprising that they donāt care at all and/or are super incompetent. I wonder how much AI was involved in creating that site.
It is quite the feeling seeing the federal government do their best to erase and discriminate against me and other trans people so openly and flagrantly and suddenly. Canāt really put it into words easily. I now feel like a stranger in my own country.
r.e. incompetence look at #9 that I just added :D (I guess I should cut it off there and start collecting stuff for a new comment next week)
Yeah, itās really horrible how they are rolling back progress, and itās happening so quickly. For whatever itās worth, I have a lot of sympathy for what you and other trans people have to experience.
Nr 9ā¦ uggh! Especially great the part in the article where they just deny it, while the reporter says it was still going on.
