Fuck, I’ve become incomprehensible to normies.
At this rate, it may only be several months before I hit @slartibartfastibast tier and my blog is only understood by a few wise world-travellers and the members of a remote Buddhist monastery high in the mountains of Nepal.
I’m sorry, guys.

In a dystopian future where the government regulates the choice of preferences for new moral agents at time of creation, genderfluid robot Optimum 7 has been declared illegal by the Turing Police.

While many futurists anticipated broad advances across the technological economy, in fields ranging from computing to materials science, few foresaw the radical advancements in theology that advanced quantum theory would bring.

Anyhow, that was an alternate timeline futurist shtpost, but more seriously that is more towards the kind of weirdness I would expect from Ultimate Perfect Good, as compared to some other theories.
It’s funny how much it’s possible to dissociate fascination with the conversation around a work from enjoyment of the work itself – to have one in pure form without the other. An example of this, with me, is James Bond.
I don’t actually like anything about James Bond. The franchise seems to mostly differ from completely generic action thrillers by starring a character who lacks the nobility, or the salt-of-the-earth gut appeal, of most action heroes – a cold, suave, cruel guy who’d normally be cast as the villain. I don’t watch many action movies to begin with, and this is even worse to me than the baseline.
But reading about the franchise is a wonderful aesthetic experience – it’s like I have a sixth sensory modality devoted to experience stuff like this. The different actors and eras, each having their/its own internal arc and relation to the others, the various takes on the character and their relation to the original novels (a whole other layer) … the amazing titles! It’s the kind of thing I wrote this about. On the rare occasions when I see a Bond movie, I don’t enjoy it much as a movie, and yet I enjoy it as a part of this other thing, this structure, this wonderful web.
“No, no, you see, I’m a meta-fan-”

if you were a villain, what kind of villain would you be?
I’m definitely “I’m taking over the world because under my control it would be perfect”
I’m the “mostly in it for the fashion and the Depraved Bisexuality” kind.
I’m absolutely the “been pushed too far by you assholes” kind
I’m the “taking logic to a horrifyingly inhuman extent” kind
Joke’s on you. I’m already a villain and I’ve tricked you all into following my blog.
As soon as North America is under my control, I’ll rebuild the NAU and show the Chinese and the Russians the true meaning of the words “continent-spanning superstate”.
Today on tumblr I saw with my own eyes the word “h*m*sexual” written just like that, with asterisks in the place of the first two vowels. Amazing
Hemisexual? Hamusexual? Don’t keep us guessing!
Also was that person a woke politically correct activist blogperson or some kind of evangelical prude tradneet?
“Homusexual.” That’s why it’s so problematic that it had to be censored.
I know some super-edgy far-leftists who are kind of assholes online but are the sweetest people in person. In person they’re willing to show more compassion, discuss more nuanced details, and express more uncertainty–while online, they easily get pulled into macho woker-than-thou posturing. I imagine a lot of the people responsible for Bad SJ Discourse are kind of like that.
A lot of internet people who are jerks and upset me are probably people I’d like if I talked with them in person. This does NOT justify this sort of online behavior. But thinking about it this way helps me find it less upsetting.
Sometimes the person is an asshole whose real self comes out only online. But some people are also really nice, and their real self gets masked online. And of course, in some ways, the in-person self and the online self are both the real self (as well as a masked self)–and it is an entity whose quality is very mixed.
If being mean comes naturally that’s one thing. If you have to put effort into being mean, whyyyy?
eXCUSE ME but being mean to the outgroup is completely morally justified, you aren’t some secret outgroup member …R U?

Friend Anon probably means the exercise of state power, and is some kind of Anarchist or Communist who, if actually given power, would end up causing a lot more people to die, tbh.
horrible grey tribe idea: we measure all policy implements in terms of total child fatalities that can be applied to it
Obviously we must do this in anti-abortionist terms, where the standard of “well you wouldn’t want to have been aborted” is used, and therefore the most logical course of action is force everyone to continuously have as many babies as possible.
Wait! Where is everyone going! Hypothetical Retrocausal Ultranatalism is the most logica-

Cmon Brett. I hate tankies as much as the next guy but some Maoists are just misguided but with their hearts in the general vicinity of the right place.
yes I think it is stupid to accuse people of being inherently good or bad based on some kind of nominal political association; one might as well replace “Maoists” with “Liverpool supporters” or what have you.
“How much Maoism did you drink?”
“*hic* Sparrows are a tool of the oppressive Capitalist class.”
“You need to stop drinking that stuff, man. You get evil when you’re drunk.”
“Shutup… Liverpooool. You jusht can’t handle… a little Communishm.”
SAN FRANCISCO—In an effort to reduce the number of unprovoked hostile communications on the social media platform, Twitter announced Monday that it had added a red X-mark feature verifying users who are in fact perfectly okay to harass. “This new verification system offers users a simple, efficient way to determine which accounts belong to total pieces of shit whom you should have no qualms about tormenting to your heart’s desire,” said spokesperson Elizabeth James, adding that the small red symbol signifies that Twitter has officially confirmed the identity of a loathsome person who deserves the worst abuse imaginable and who will deliberately have their Mute, Block, and Report options disabled. “When a user sees this symbol, they know they’re dealing with a real asshole who has richly earned whatever mistreatment they receive, including profanity, body-shaming, leaking of personal information, and relentless goading to commit suicide. It’s really just a helpful way of saying to our users, ‘This fuck has it coming, so do your worst with a clear conscience and without fear of having your account suspended.’” At press time, Twitter reassuredly clarified that the red X was just a suggestion and that all users could still be bullied with as little recourse as they are now.
