what if we carved all emotions and empathy out from our brains and
called them cognitive biases? we can call it rationalism. no shut up
it’s not sociopathy that’s different
I've always felt like emotions of some form or another are vital enough to thinking that trying to cut them out as an offence to rationality just ends up with irrational results as you just ignore good ideas as being too emotional.
Remember her tweet where the confessed to finally - in 2020! -
realized trump was bad? Her excuse: my friends were too deranged for me
to take seriously.
You could create a bot that posts every Ⓐⓔⓛⓛⓐ tweet here and
eventually everyone here would end up permanently looking like the
subreddit icon.
An aside- Ⓨⓤⓓ shared an Ⓐⓔⓛⓛⓐ post on FB (I won’t share it because it
has her real name) whining about how her favorite subreddits were
deleted and how she felt like her “home was gone” and “fuck BLM, fuck
SJWs, and fuck trans activists” (seriously)… and when someone called her
out on it, she went full mask off, and started going off about how
“black people commit more crime, so if you really care about black lives
why don’t you stop black crime” and “the world would be better off
without them” (idk if that referred to BLM or black people), and also
that she’d sacrifice some 20 000 black people to bring back her favorite
subs. Oh, and someone complained that the guy who said “maybe people’s
lives are more important than a forum on an entertainment website” was
being UNCHARITABLE.
So yeah, she’s not just into “asking uncomfortable questions”, she’s
a racist POS.
Probably trying to peddle her wares to an audience that's horny, male, and receptive.
...is that child grooming?
/s, from the screenshots she's a racist, but she's *probably* not a pedophile.
Direct quotes:
"Fuck social justice warriors, fuck the mentality behind black lives matter, they're actively making the world a much worse place and I want to fight this and I don't know what to do."
"I also don't even think there *is* significant racism in the justice system, at least not to the extent people are claiming."
"black people commit more crime. presumably if they committed less crime they would be murdered by police at lower rates. If you really cared about black lives then where's your campaigning to reduce black crime?"
[continuing with her comparison to hypothetical sweeping bans like banning boating to prevent drowning accidents] "how many people would you kill to let people enjoy rides on boats? if you frame it like that it seems unreasonable." "but generally at a *very* rough glance i think the change in culture that led to these subreddit bans is worth an increase of maybe ~10k US deaths a year" (a later comment mentions having edited the number down)
[in response to a comment saying JK Rowling isn't oppressed] "that's such a reframe. Oppression only counts as oppression if you're in the correct class of identity, otherwise it's just 'loss of privilege'."
Also one from Yud's quoted thread that left me in awe:
"These people I'm seeing online aren't significantly political, but they're still contributing to the really bad stuff, they're still choosing to not buy the palettes of the beauty guru who made the last faux paus."
I'm not seeing that post on her page. What date was it posted?
EDIT - Okay, I did actually see these quotes after checking from my computer rather than on mobile
Her startup is [Cards Against Humanity, Extra Sociopathic Edition](https://www.askhole.io/). That's not so interesting. What's interesting to me is this tagline:
>Because questions are not answers, and by themselves have no agenda.
How can anyone say this with a straight face? That's some /r/nottheonion shit.
What a deeply strange thing to say. As if the wage is adjusted by our
wise politicians to precisely what is ‘needed to survive’? When they
raise it, people suddenly need more? As the real value decreases
relative to inflation, people need less and less? Or does setting the
minimum wage CREATE the condition of this sum being what is needed to
survive?? What the fuck????
“You can live for very little if you’re careful. Of course, if you
add on additional costs, the wage you need to survive increases.”
The intense naiveté of this sentiment is striking. I definitely do
get the sense that a lot of rationalists are primarily the way they are
because they come from some degree of money and were prevented or
protected from learning about poverty as a kid.
When I read your post I immediately thought of this and how upsetting it must be to those people.

You don’t need any money for literal survival if do a good job
begging for food and water while sleeping under a bridge. If this is too
much effort for you, commit a nonviolent crime so that the justice
system takes over your survival for you. Most homeless people keep their
bodies alive just fine on no wage at all. Of course that’s not gonna be
enough if you have more costs!

“I always viewed minimum wage as [something that has no relationship to the minimum wage whatsoever]”
What the heck is up with this one?

Yeah, stop buying avocado toast and coffee if you wanna be rich.

Money will be eliminated in a fully communist society. Time to start thinking outside the box about this whole “wage” stuff.
Ugh. Their growing sense of entitlement is quite utterly offensive to all five human senses. This is nonsense! Pure nonsense, I say.
Yes, you can live subsistence farming on a tenth of an acre, making zero income. Is it a good life?
