Need to make a primal scream without gathering 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!

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.

      "The smile. The optimism. Versus the steely 1000 yard stare.

      Ideology preformed in the instant of conception

      Physiognomy, simply, does not lie."

      immediately know which represents pragmatism vs esoteric theory

      What neither of them are doing ‘The Stare’, Moore can do it, Crowley could do it, Rasputin can do it. Get these low budget farces out of here, and give me a proper Stare.

      Moldbug tries, but he mostly just looks in a way that makes you think ‘he just farted and is trying to figure out if I noticed’.

      Ah yes, pragmatists, well known for their constantly sunny and optimistic outlook on the future, consequences be damned (?)
