Wanting better pay as a below minimum wage employee, because that's what markets force you to want, is actually an endorsement of inequality. Thanks Robin. (https://i.redd.it/eboqok2vww091.png)

“How dare these bitches reject me for nobodies and neanderthals! Don’t they know i’ll be a world famous scientist!” and other gems from this Scott Aaronson thread. He supposedly makes a thread to support abortion rights but it’s hijacked by his whining about being an Incel and bullied by SneerClub (https://scottaaronson.blog/?p=6411#comments)
