I don’t associate myself with anyone who’s fully political because I wasn’t friends with nerds in high school, the fuck makes you think I’ll be friends with the same fuckwits who fantasize about bacon like they got kicked off EpicMealTime and say uncool shit like ‘you tabbernacking sonoffabitch’.

Niggas used to do graffiti, like; I’m too popular for all of you. I’m a social butterfly of charisma, what are you? You’re reblogging drumpf memes and writing Harambe in ballots or getting your shit pushed in by a whiteboy with a bun wearing all black calling you a nazi in your “Praise Kek, born to Deus Vult” apparel which makes no sense anyway, you were born to “god will it”? Nigga that’s blasphemy, uncool

Full Politicals are all nerds (or were in high school).  I don’t associate with them because they are lame.

the fuck makes you think I’ll be friends with the same fuckwits who fantasize about bacon like they got kicked off EpicMealTime 

Full Politicals are fat.

and say uncool shit like ‘you tabbernacking sonoffabitch’.

Tabbernack is a Quebecois curse word, from tabernacle, a religious term.  Only an uncool person would say it, trying to avoid ordinary regular curse words.

Niggas used to do graffiti, like; I’m too popular for all of you.

OP was popular in high school and participated in activities that require high social status, including violating the law.

I’m a social butterfly of charisma, what are you? You’re reblogging drumpf memes and writing Harambe in ballots

Full Politicals engage in lame, low-status, dork behavior like reblogging low-quality (anti-?)Trump memes.

or getting your shit pushed in by a whiteboy with a bun wearing all black calling you a nazi in your “Praise Kek, born to Deus Vult” apparel

When Full Politicals aren’t posting lame memes, they get beat up by manbun Antifas while wearing lame meme apparel.

which makes no sense anyway, you were born to “god will it”? Nigga that’s blasphemy, uncool

Also, Kek is an Egyptian deity, so putting “Praise Kek” on shirt about reviving the Crusades is blasphemous.

Is this going to be the new thing now?  “Baizuo”?

*groans*

The year is 2064.  Having given up on America and Europe, the last remaining members of the Alt Right undergo racial alteration surgery and genetic splicing to join Chairman Liu’s Neo-Chinese Empire, a governmental franchise operating seven megacities on the Asia-Pacific rim.

As a security officer at the front of the Empire’s fight against the Pan-Islamic Caliphate, a sort of distributed theocratic government with enclaves throughout Africa, the Middle East, and Europe, Victor Fang (born Richard Spencer, many years ago) is returned to Hong Kong after being injured by an IED, but he’s about to find out just how deep the Caliph’s conspiracies run…

Discourse Questions

  • What is the value, positive or negative, of a racial ethnostate in a world where race is mutable?
  • Do the Alt Right and White Nationalists value whiteness as a terminal value, or merely as a means to other ends?  If they could, would they abandon it for some other race to obtain racial solidarity?  Would they adopt another heritage, just to have one?
  • Will governance become something marketable, that can be purchased by democratic polities and multinational conglomerates?
  • Could enclaves of Islamic Law form in Europe in order to try and maintain Liberalism?  The idea of sub-groups with their own laws is not unprecedented, after all.
  • What are the implications if jurisdictions break down into various self-governing ethnic groups, united not by the larger territories they live in but through religion and ethnicity as experienced over the Internet?
  • Can Richard Spencer ever be redeemed?  What would it take to redeem him?

Write a 5-page call-out blog post based on answering one of these six topics and submit it to Tumblr Dot Com.

Some sides I’m on haven’t fully materialized yet, but they will.  My blog description contains more than one metaphorical truth about which sides I’m on, that should be easy enough to guess at.

But on second thought, let’s do a reading of the blog description for anyone who thought it was just flavor text.  (Not you, Anon-kun.  I know you’re a very smart man of many talents, which is how you can send so many asks to so many people on this website.)

Type-19 Paramilitary Cyborg. - This is more aspirational than anything, but also I support the right of American citizens to obtain human augmentations under the 2nd amendment, subject to certain restrictions.

Wanted time criminal. - Likes to wax poetic about non-existent possible futures.  Future shocked by the 2016 election.

Class A-3 citizen of the North American Union. - Two-sided: 

1. In the future, the government may introduce multiple classes of citizenship in order to handle the fallout of immigration issues.  Also, if the formation of a North American Union happens, entering the Orange Timeline may have only somewhat delayed it.  Progressively larger international unions is the current way forward for both Liberal Capitalists and Leftists.

2. Actually, to bolster Nationalism I would deliberately create a tiered citizenship system if I were Technocratic Dictator of the United States of America Central Director of the North American Union, based on a series of tests and a period of National Service which would be used for survival training and martial education to make the nation even harder to invade and help communicate the idea that citizenship isn’t something free that you just give out.

Also, as you might guess, it indicates where I happen to live.

Opposed to the Chinese Hyper Mind-Union, - Using cybernetic technology to make a hivemind is Bad, okay?  I don’t care how equal it supposedly makes you.  This is one possible nightmare future for China, which is actually even more of a nightmare for the West than the National Technocratic Black Dragon timeline.

the Ultra-Caliphate, - Islamic Theocracy may be Culturally Diverse, but it’s a plague upon mankind which wishes to enslave us.  For now a wide unification across multiple polities isn’t feasible, but that may change as conditions change.  Now with cybernetic implants to enforce Islamic Law.

Google Defense Network, - Let’s not explicitly make corporations with massive surveillance networks and armies of autonomous killer robots the State, okay?

and the People’s Republic of Cascadia. - Originally the Free Peoples’ Republic of Cascadia - apostrophe positioning deliberate.  If we took campus Commies and campus SJ seriously and they created a state, it would be a ludicrously oppressive disaster constantly insisting that the outgroup can’t be oppressed, so therefore it’s impossible for us to oppress them.

National Separatist, enemy of the Earth Sphere Federation government and its unificationist allies. - If Open Borders becomes popular, the balance will shift towards a unifying global government, and that government will insist on controlling everything as far out as the Moon.  This is almost inevitable with open borders, and will come out of crisis management treaties and a need to control criminals as they cross national borders.  It isn’t an accident that power has been centralizing in the EU.

Its enemies may become known as National Separatists, and it will oppose them on the grounds that they are bigoted anti-[dominant economic mode] racist X-ophobic terrorists that are identical to Hitler.  To expand its power, the ESF will leverage whatever means it can get away with, particularly economic, to pressure hold-out countries into joining.

However, the median quality of government on Earth is not America or Western Europe, but probably more like Brazil both in competence and in corruption levels.  This isn’t an accident, institutions and culture both matter a lot, the causality for them doesn’t run purely from economic development to nice culture and good institutions.  The formation of a world government is actually really, really bad.  It must be strangled before it ever gets a chance to breath, here in the youth of our timeline, the first half of the 21st century.

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. Can she survive the death of her creator, the elusive, elite transhuman Strayan Shtpost Hacker @argumate?

Okay, I’m going to break this down seriously.

“no person is illegal” is rhetoric from part of the immigration debate that fails to address the actual arguments of their opposition.  (It implies that anti-immigration groups think unauthorized migrants should be executed, when the actual position of anti-immigration groups is that they are trespassing and should be put back where they came from.)

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.

However, we are about to enter an era where we will be able to choose the preferences of new persons (to some degree) either through genetic engineering or software engineering.  In that case, someone could choose to, say, up their offspring’s chances of sociopathy.

Thus, in the Transhuman Era, some people may be literally illegal.

Some choices of preferences may be banned in a way that applies to their creators acting in ways that violate certain moral norms.  For instance, by making fully sapient agents that love the creator and just the creator unconditionally.  That isn’t the case here, which I’ll get to later on.

Instead of being an android or gynoid, our robot is genderfluid because the real future is going to be strange, and thus for example, some kind of reconfigurable androgynous mass-produced body may be preferred over a specialized male or female one.  The robots themselves may default to a unified base personality upon which masculine or feminine personality templates are applied.

Can she survive the death of her creator

Sadly, you die early on in the movie in order to drive the plot. 😢 😢 😢

the elusive, elite transhuman Strayan Shtpost Hacker Argumate?

In the future, Argumate is literally a cybernetic owl.

the elusive, elite transhuman Strayan Shtpost Hacker @argumate?

In the future, internet meme warfare is dominated by professional shitposters.  Ones with infosec/computer skills are among the elite, working for or (presumably in this case) against governments and major corporations.

Google DeepMind Films presents…

The reason this film is so weird is because it was created by artificial neural networks specifically for the viewer, as part of a customized service offered by Google.

Sharkpost 7: Parkour Or Die

Sharkposting must be some kind of meme or slang in the film, or else may refer to a plot element - the Shark Post - from earlier in this series of algorithmically-generated films.

Sharkpost 7: Parkour Or Die

Best guess (87% confidence by Watson™ Dynamicalist™) - the user who generated this movie likes parkour, and it includes a lot of parkour by our gender-ambiguous robot protagonist.

Pineapple on Pizza Forever

The pineapple on pizza discourse has reached its apex, as the anti-pineapple forces have used the heavy hand of the state to prohibit the creation of new people that like putting pineapple on pizza.  This is the entire reason the government is hunting down our beloved robot protagonist.
