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.

    And right leaning people have been so far more capable of cooperating with those who don’t match their values. Also, on paper, left leaning have expressed more humane values, espacially when very general or abstract. But in the day to day, when it comes to the mondain or practical, I’ve seen the sexist or racist guys help more my muslim or girl friends that the ones saying every body is equal.

    what in the absolute fuck. nobody calls this out?

    The extreme left is a good bit smaller than the extreme right. The vast, vast majority of Democrats that MAGA folks like to paint as communists are in fact damn near as conservative as they are on most issues. You could probably put all the actual communists in America in a single stadium, with space left over.

    this is barely masking some “all the leftists you see online are sockpuppets and everyone protesting is a paid actor” horseshit, isn’t it?

      The part about him seeing racists be nicer than leftists (?) is beyond baffling. Yeah, white US southerners in 1850 were pretty dang nice and willing to help a random marginalized person out once in a while, what the fuck is the point?
