Have a sneer percolating in your system but not enough time/energy to make a whole post about it? Go forth and be mid!
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 cut’n’paste it into its own post, there’s no quota for posting and the bar really isn’t that high
The post Xitter web has spawned soo many “esoteric” right wing freaks, but there’s no appropriate sneer-space for them. I’m talking redscare-ish, reality challenged “culture critics” who write about everything but understand nothing. I’m talking about reply-guys who make the same 6 tweets about the same 3 subjects. They’re inescapable at this point, yet I don’t see them mocked (as much as they should be)
Like, there was one dude a while back who insisted that women couldn’t be surgeons because they didn’t believe in the moon or in stars? I think each and every one of these guys is uniquely fucked up and if I can’t escape them, I would love to sneer at them.
@froztbyte @Eiim “ZA” is not a country abbreviation that many united statians know, at least from my anecdotal experience.
I’m familiar enough with country codes that I do know what ZA means, but in the context I didn’t realize that it was referring to a country, I thought it was just an abbreviation I wasn’t familiar with. In retrospect that probably should have stood out to me more.
“knowing about ZA as the ISO code” is not, in fact, the thing I was addressing there :)
