Proximity, they’re both pulling from the same labor pool, but there’s less scrutiny on their department so they pull in worse people. Probably some combination of all of that.

For you to not live in a world where you’re being inundated by all of the collective human stressors every day?

No, CAPTCHAs these days track mouse movements and other factors. They make you second guess if something should be included because, as a human, that’s going to be something you do. And it’ll be obvious from both that hesitation and your squishy, inaccurate mouse movements that you’re a human.

Cop beating you: Stop resisting! Stop resisting!

I love this logic because capitalism has made it its job to kill any competition prove the alternatives nonviable. Chile was trying something truly revolutionary, a fully democratic based socialism, and the CIA aborted the attempt and installed a capitalism friendly dictatorship.

You won’t catch me simping for Authoritarians or anything, but when the only other mode of operation is a military strong enough to resist the CIA, there’s going to be a bias towards Authoritarian based alternatives. Convenient, if you’re trying to paint the alternatives as nonviable.

Yeah, I’m gonna disagree with you here. Lots of people are really comfortable being excessive shits online, especially when they have some sort of grievance. PizzaCake is like a fucking lodestone for disdain, so this has definitely happened. Worse has definitely happened.

Assuming, of course, that we’re both on the same page that this comic is an illustration of an online conversation and not, like, meant to be taken literally.

But they’re not a monopoly because checks notes with a huge wad of cash Microsoft assured me it wasn’t

That’s only a 9 hour drive at American speeds. None of this Hollish “speed kills” nonsense.

…Hollish hurt me

It’s a good video, I just don’t like how needlessly prickly he is with his little snide comments. I would love to share it, but really don’t want to because of all those moments.

Yeah, because you’re giving up federal power for… a bigger state budget? Not really a great trade.

I’m going to give one that might be controversial. It was the first high attention news event after the internet made us more connected. It allowed for oddball ideas to get passed around faster than ever before, shaping a “coherent” narrative faster than old media could handle.

You’re making up a quiet part

No, you see, I included evidence for this, her friends that are TERFs and White Nationals. If she “wanted the best” for trans people, she wouldn’t associate with people who wanted them eradicated. You ignored it. She also uses Motte-and-Bailey Fallacies to maintain distance from her less friendly views. I can get receipts if you want.

The UK made a hard turn because

Prove it. Cause from where I’m sitting, a right-leaning government took over and ran back social progress, a thing right-leaning governments do. What were the negative ramifications from allowing trans people to exist without needing to jump through hoops? They were “dire” in your own words, so you must have some examples.

This is after Sweden

Appeal to Authority. And meaningless to this conversation. It’s not proof of anything, just that a fairly socially conservative country ran back a socially progressive policy. Shocker.

It says more about you that you’re incapable of seeing hate unless the person spreading it literally says the quiet part out loud. Rowling does the bare minimum, couching her hate in the thinnest veneer of plausible deniability, and you just gobble it up. She freely associates with TERFs and White Nationals, simply because they agree with her views on transwomen.

The UK has made a hard turn against trans rights in the last decade, and Rowling had been the driving force behind that reversal.

Am an American, can confirm that's the attitude. It's a real shame
