Need to let loose a primal scream without collecting 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: Welcome to the Stubsack, your first port of call for learning fresh Awful you’ll near-instantly regret.

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.

    Oh gosh, hopefully I live to see “Singularity Is Still Near, Just Not as Near as I Thought: Trust Me Bros” released in 2041

      ‘Sorry no singularity, climate change is an existential threat after all’.

      (I’m bitterly reminded of the SSC post where he starts with ‘why don’t we hear about the ozone layer anymore, well the scientists fixed it!’ where he goes after the environmentalist movement. There is only one problem with the ‘we fixed the ozone layer’ thing. Butt wait, there is more!)
