Alternate reality where I don’t post about politics because everything is fine and there is nothing to worry about.
:(
The year is 2033…
Under the direction of the Australian Environmental Working Group, an army of thousands of killer snakebots, created by the Omega Corporation, has been unleashed to eliminate cane toads from the continent. No one thought it could go wrong.
Now the killer snakebots have been hijacked by a vicious terrorist group, and only one man can stop them… the man that created them.
As long as you use an expansive definition of the term ‘man’.

Scott is already the most powerful Neoreactionary that has ever lived.
Even from within the tenth circle of the seventh star of the dark sun, chained in magical bindings by the Eight Scholars of Justice Eternal, pursued relentlessly by the Harbingers of Anti-Fate, his power leaks through into our world, disguised as “steelmanned” defenses of Liberalism.
Every word uttered in his true form converts ten children to the principles of sidereal nationalism. It is through only his whispers that the one known as Moldbug came to Awakeness. His mere gaze shatters all known forms of modernity.
He cannot stop, and he cannot be stopped.
It was the breaking of the fifth seal, causing parts of our world to come unmoored from Time, which allowed me to enter the past and spread my message of darkness.

Anon, honey kun, this is a really bad take and you should feel bad.
Modern political theorists haven’t modeled orientation-party-metaphor as a single axis since at least the publication of the Ganymede Papers in 1917. Most now model it as either a 17 or 5-dimensional manifold, depending on whether their simulations need full granularity.
Even using the outdated dual-axis Barker-McWillis partition of the orientation space shows that bisexualism isn’t centrism.
I really don’t know how I and every other gender-ideostruct theorist can be clearer about this.

let monster women look monstrous u fucking cowards
You think that sht pays for itself? You think fucking superconducting magnets for building these enormous full prosthetic bodies are free or something?
Alright, when my company makes some licensed, snake-themed anime bullsht, we can reliably sell 400,000 units. Yeah, that’s not a typo. Not forty units. Not four hundred units. Four hundred thousand units.
That’s what people want. That’s what they buy. That’s what they’re willing to pay for. We are in the business of making what people are willing to pay for. Microtanium alloy does not come cheap.
You think we haven’t tried more ‘exotic’ body designs? We’ve done that. Small batches. Little unique touches for all of them. Totally novel arm and shoulder designs.
You know who buys that? Collectors. Every time we try it it’s a struggle to sell the whole batch for more than it cost us to make it.
That “dumb” pretty design you’re railing against, that is so popular, is compatible with every door handle, every stove, most typical tops, most typical hats, and so on. You can go out tomorrow and buy everything you need for it. All the catalogs already exist, and where they don’t, “human equipment will do.”
Not to mention that, even leaving aside that most of our customers still have to interface with business environments, most humans aren’t gossisexual, they aren’t going to adapt to something too far outside the human bodyplan, and most of our customers don’t want to look hideous, even in the N- and L-band neurotypes. Even shifting most of the muscle control on e.g. the spider special mode to software is straining the neuroplasticity limits of the human brain, and neuroplasticity amplifiers are not free of side-effects.
This is just so woefully naive and idealistic. Really, I’ve had it up to here with outsiders trying to force their aesthetic preferences on my industry.
If you want such a monstrous body, go buy it yourself. There are hundreds, maybe thousands of custom shops that will put one together for you. But don’t go btching about how “your monsterwoman synth bodies don’t look monstrous enough”.
so what are we all getting mad about next
I’m really upset that my favorite ship in Strawberry Rationalist Girl RenegadeAngles-san isn’t official in the new season and I’m planning to hold the government of Sapporo hostage in the name of queer spider-cyborg representation and morphological freedom until the studio agrees to make it canon.
I’ve got three airsoft rifles, a crew of fifteen dedicated hardcore brotakus, and a tank. I really think we can pull this off. You in?
please god tell me brotaku isn’t a real thing
“There are only two things in life that are valuable. Anime, and sick gainz.”
- some Japanese guy, probably
The Brotaku School of anime-style martial arts goes back to the year of 1994, in a small town on the outskirts of San Francisco, California. I’m not surprised you haven’t heard of it, since it’s pretty obscure. Few even know it exists, much less the power of its techniques. It’s quite brutal, but it has to be - the Brotaku School exists to break the will of the neckbeard so that they can be transformed and elevated to a new level of Man, seeking both perfection of mind and of body.
Not all of them survive. Those that do make a vow of voluntary celibacy in order to prove their loyalty to the 2D Ideal.
Of course, I don’t really hold to the 2D Ideal myself, different school of martial arts and beliefs and all that, but they embody a kind of aspect of the national will and we kind of deeply connected over sharing tips to unlock all the endings of Discourse Beach and then we decided to overthrow the government.
But eventually we realized that was too much work and settled for getting RenegadeAngles fixed.
So are you coming or what?

If the Dire Problem is supposed to be job automation, most of the best studies I’ve seen suggest that job automation isn’t having real effects right now (yes, everyone is confused about this, but the studies are pretty unanimous). I don’t know whether that will continue past the Truckpocalypse (<– correct form, your portmanteau is way too unwieldy).
My guess is Trump and Brexit have more to do with income inequality caused by other stuff, increased class differences coming from the income inequality, and various social stuff coming out of those class differences.

Nah, I think anon has it. Try rapping it. You don’t want that “ck” right against the “p”, the “a” in between makes it flow. “truck-uh-pock-uh-lips” is delicious.
But if the Truckpocalypse is related to the Trumpocalypse, we want parallel -ocalypse structures to make them more easily comparable.
“The Trumpocalypse caused the Truckpocalypse” sounds good,
“The Trumpocalypse caused the TruckApocalypse” is just ridiculous.
“Truckapocalypse” sounds better absent context but the meter and consonance mean that I can’t stop thinking of “Snuffleupagus” and “Papadopoulos” when I hear it.
You fuckers have it completely wrong.
“Truckpocalypse” and “Truck Apocalypse” are two DIFFERENT supervillains. You can’t go mixing them up like this. There was a court case about it and everything - it’s fucking trademarked. You could get sued.
