How do I add a description?

@htomardived

Is this it?

i think we should bring this back (with some amendments ofc) if we ever needed an "internet etiquette" for the younger generations, now is the moment to remind them. purity culture kills fandom

Don't Like, Don't Read (DL;DR), Your Kink is not My Kink And That's OK (YKINMKATO) and Ship and Let Ship

📣 Purity culture kills fandom! 📣

NO ONE LIVING hasn't been squicked out by something. There's over 7 billion of us, my delights and disgusts aren't universal. So I move on. Don't like the ship? Move on. Don't like____? Move on.

I am not an exception. Neither are you. I don't like it I move on and shut my gob about it because everyone everywhere is squicked out by something and they need to put the thing down and just…motor.

This but also:

Frames this entire post and hangs it over the fireplace.

All gun controllers are like this, not just Canadian.

They think that reality is a Jackie Chan movie.

So what I'm hearing is, small people, people in wheelchairs, or otherwise disabled people deserve to die? Yeah no that's very much fits in with leftist doctrine.

Yeah, I love lefty arguments, because all you have to do is play the easiest logical deduction to see that they unironically argue in favor of eugenics and slavery.

September 26, 2024: Sign at PYM led rally in New York;

Zooming in on the sign:

They claim to be quoting the Talmud to prove how evil “Zionism” is.

This is a wildly antisemitic misrepresentation of the Talmud, which clearly prohibits intercourse with minors.

This sign is my favorite because it’s so clear they’re talking about all Jews.

If they were talking about the “Zionist entity,” they could just check the law and see rape is illegal and punishable by jail time in all cases (fun fact, Israel clarified marital rape was against the law (using legal precedent from the Talmud) before it was prohibited in all 50 US states).

The legal age at which you can be married in Israel is 18, and the state can prosecute parents who marry off their children younger than that.

So maybe get your own house in order before you complain about the evil Jews.

Always funny seeing the "rape is resistance" crowd trying to pretend they care about rape.

I looked this up, and this is referring to a passage from the Torah written at around 200 BC. As in literally over two thousand years old, and not actually applicable in the context of modern law.

And that is also NOT what it says.

Read for yourself of course, but yeah an 'anti-zionist' claiming absolute bullshit? Must be a day ending in y.

It's very hard to have any meaningful discussion with people whose brains work like this.

Spectrum of "Theory of Mind" Mastery:

1) Partially Mind-Blind

  • Description: This person has no theory of mind. They cannot conceive that others hold different perspectives, knowledge, or beliefs. Contradictory models don’t even register as possibilities—they assume everyone should align with their singular view, and any deviation is interpreted as malice or irrationality.
  • Capacity: None. They cannot entertain two models because they don’t recognize the existence of alternatives.

2) Argumentative Switcher

  • Description: This person uses contradictory models opportunistically to win arguments, switching between them as needed without apparent concern for consistency. Their ability to sincerely entertain others’ perspectives is unclear, but they demonstrate awareness of multiple models, even if only as tools for manipulation.
  • Capacity: Low to moderate. They can juggle contradictory models but only superficially, as a means to an end, not for genuine understanding. Their focus is on outcome (winning), not coherence or truth. This is above (1) because they at least recognize and deploy multiple models, even if cynically.

3) Doublethink Pracitioner

  • Description: Doublethink is defined in George Orwell’s novel 1984 as “the power of holding two contradictory beliefs in one’s mind simultaneously, and accepting both of them,” often with a deliberate suppression of the contradiction to serve a greater ideological purpose (like the Party’s control). Orwell describes it as a trained mental discipline, where someone not only tolerates contradiction but embraces it as true, often erasing awareness of the conflict.
  • Capacity: Moderate to high. Some people exist at this level because they lack the ability to recognize the contradiction to the two mental models. Others might have the ability to recognize the contradiction, but not the ability to resolve it. Finally, some remain at this level by choice because they are afraid of what they will realize if they try to resolve the contradiction.

4) Strategic Pretender

  • Description: This person holds a “true” model they believe in and a “false” one they don’t, but they understand and use the false one strategically—e.g., to deceive, persuade, or blend in. They must grasp the logic of the false model to wield it effectively.
  • Capacity: Moderate. They can entertain two models simultaneously (one believed, one not), showing a functional theory of mind. However, their engagement with the contradictory model is instrumental, not open-ended or exploratory. This is above (2) because they sustain a deeper understanding of the false model, not just a fleeting argumentative pivot.

There are two ranks beyond that, but you'll not see these arguments coming from them.

Fixed the order of the last two ranks.

How Mexicans feel about duendes too.

True. Most Irish people, as Norwegians do with Trolls, will happily let the 'fairies' be a thing to make tours for tourists and idle threats to make children behave. Most Irish people will have a very normal and mature explanation of fairies as a common folk mythology that expresses some dimension of Irish culture but are not, obviously, to be taken literally.

And most Irish people, if you ask them to move a stone from a fairy circle will immoveably, flatly respond with 'absolutely fucking not'.

Construction projects have had to halt and be abandoned for it.

At work me and a couple coworkers (black, white, and mexican) had a fun discussion on whether there are more ghosts at a hospital or a cemetery.

everyone individually took a moment to specify that ghosts probably aren't REAL real. then weighed in on where and why.

for the record my position was that there's probably way more ghosts in hospitals because that's where people die horribly, but since you can only see ghosts in dark, solitary conditions, graveyards at night is where the majority of ghost sightings occur. hospitals are usually well lit and busy, so even if they're crammed with ghosts the living are too damn busy to see them. meanwhile if a cemetery has even one ghost that followed her corpse there from the hospital, she'll be spotted because that's where all the ghost hunters go to look.

this theory was received as extremely sensible, and a coworker drew the conclusion that that's why abandoned hospitals are even scarier than graveyards. once the place gets abandoned then you can tell how much ghosts got built up.

we all liked this explanation a lot and explained it to everyone else all night. and of course, none of us believe in ghosts.

I'm Icelandic. I know elves aren't real but I also heard them sing in the large rock by my school

You can literally make anything and anyone problematic if you try hard enough seriously give me people and things and I’ll make them all “problematic” right now.

I don’t even have to do this one because PETA did it first by insinuating domestication is inherently abusive.

Reblogging because NAMING IS HARD

This is serious.

Interesting. You, of course, have no problem with his advocacy of the genocide of Jews.

It's already illegal to advocate for terrorist organizations if you have a green card. Like. That's literally the law. It's always been the law. Just because no one enforced in until now doesn't mean it wasn't the law. No non-citizen is owed residency in this country. You are here on sufferance. Actively promote terrorist propaganda and we don't want or need you here.

Deport them all.

Also, it's kind of hilarious to see team "hate speech should be illegal" and generally in favor of censoring "misinformation" to suddenly pretend to care about free speech. While carefully downplaying what the guy actually said.

I don't think they're even pretending to care about free speech. They still want privileged speech.

They're trying to convict us with their (flawed) understanding of our principles which are broadly stated as, "free speech is an inherent human right not subject to restraint by the government except in the most extreme cases such as in direct calls for violence."

And I think they've kindof got a point. If the government is saying it can withhold priviledges and services you otherwise qualify for, have legally applied for, and recieved, on the basis of you using your right to free speech wrong, that is something conservatives should examine carefully and consider thoughtfully of 'does this fit within my principles?'

If I accept Proud Boys or Freedom Front as a terror group or extremist group, then do I think it is ok for the gov't to rescind the visa of a South African lawyer in Chicago who, with his public speech, supports students in that same city protesting in support of those groups?

Hamas militias have killed 22-year-old Odai Naser Saadi, one of the leaders of the anti-Hamas protest movement in Gaza. He was kidnapped, tortured for four hours, and then executed. His body was dumped at the doorstep of his family’s home, with a chilling message: “This is the price for those who criticize Hamas.”

https://www.timesofisrael.com/liveblog_entry/22-year-old-palestinian-tortured-killed-by-hamas-after-joining-gaza-protests-against-terror-group/

Fucking, fucking, fuckity fuck, and god damn it. Hamas KEEPS DOING THIS.

It is still a miracle that the protests went for three consecutive days without Hamas arresting and torturing thousands, as it did in 2019 and summer 2023.

And that they have been able to protest repeatedly throughout the war - despite Hamas killing at least one other organizer last year, and beating another to a pulp.

That the movement has been able to build to the point of having thousands of people protesting all over Palestine - not just Gaza, though mostly Gaza of course - to the point that the news FINALLY COVERED THEM. That is a fucking miracle.

They evidently even turned Odai Naser Saadi's funeral procession into a protest. That seems like the perfect tribute.

May his memory be a blessing 💔

Every time I think antis can't hit a new low, they show up with an excavator.

You can hate lolisho type shit all you want, no one is telling you that you can't.

But spamming the discord of a vtuber you don't like with csem?

And you'd think that is as bad as it can get, right? Nah, son, they spammed her discord with csem of her.

"No, you don't understand, officer, she's a lolicon, and all lolicons are pedophiles. That's why I had to purchase csem of her from her ex and distribute it on her discord. I did it to lol epic pwn the pedos. Why are you arresting me?"

Only on twitter, I swear to God...

Back when discourse on tumblr was really fucking bad you'd hear similar stories, albeit perhaps not for these reasons, and before that it happened on 4chan because "for the lulz". As much as we rightly dunk on twitter, these kind of delusional scumbags were never restricted to one website, and people already complain about it happening on bluesky. Give it time and we'll hear about it happening on TikTok if it hasn't happened already.

Just something to think about this Monday morning!!

nice to see ..I can't count the times I've been called a putin puppet and they just confirmed everything I have been saying for years

This is all correct but doesn’t go far enough back. The US promised Russia no eastern expansion after German reunification. The US/CIA. Put Zelensky in place through regime change shenanigans. And the darker corners of the US political machine have used Ukraine for all sorts of illegal activities.

In other words, Trump is right to a point. But refuses to accept the basis is actually, to a large extent, because of US policies and three letter agencies.
