Well the first option is always Parallel Paraplegic posted:the edgiest possible edgelord option But it's weirder than it is edgy, at least in my eyes. why is she holding a basketball??? Also something about how it looks makes me think it's at least partially a tracing of a photo, and if so I wonder if she was either holding a basketball or actually bound in the original. I have now thought about this too much.

I wonder sometimes what percentage of people in the alt-right are too young to remember the Cold War. Because all this "civilization is in decline!" nonsense sounds like exactly what you'd expect from people who were kids during the dot-com boom and whose first experience with the prospect of global war was 9/11.

It would be a dog whistle for their obsession with miscegenation and race traitor nonsense, wouldn't it. I guess I didn't make the connection because I am a cuck white NBA fan who automatically thinks of the majority-black players as relatable fellow human beings rather than a set of ravening beasts whose popularity heralds the slow invasion and takeover of western civilization by alien forces.

Milo's speaking at USF, the university near where I live, tonight at 7, ugh. They called him a "gay activist and columnist who wrote for Breitbart" and talked about his "controversial stances that some people say are racist" on the local NPR station, and then the only person they actually interviewed were the people who invited him (some campus libertarian group I think) who were like "This is how we have a ~conversation~ and if he weren't so controversial nobody would care and we couldn't have this ~conversation~" As a totally unrelated event, it seems there is a severe thunderstorm above USF right now producing quarter-size hail and lots of lightning. It's the strongest I've seen this year.

What exactly does it mean to be "redpilled"? Is it just to begin accepting and supporting the rhetoric of the far right? That's how I've always taken it but it has this weird, invasive inflection to it.

You see most people are like people in the matrix, oblivious to reality, but some of the edgiest people take the red pill and see that actually they're smart and clever and know what's really going on and everyone else is just dumb sheeple.

The funny thing about redpilling is that the Matrix is loaded with metaphors for queer identities and for the last few years they've been the Wachowski Sisters.

Plus, there's the old standby joke about how none of these clowns would accept a black guy telling them their worldview is all wrong.

Unless it's Lovecraft. With Lovecraft it's okay to talk about the underlying philosophy and how his racism might have affected his work. But nerds will tolerate that kind of discussion for nobody else, not even when it's really obvious.

Also even if you take it at face value humans were the bad guys, being redpilled amounted to living in a lovely cave eating slop and fighting for some moral cosmic justice that literally everyone else in the world would rather ignore and live their simulated lives. Also what if everyone but neo was just a simulation that the matrix generated because Neo was getting too bored and questioning too much stuff so they had to give his life some "purpose" to keep him from rejecting reality like in the beta matrix

The thing about Lovecraft is a lot of his work itself was incredibly racist, so even nerds can't sweep it under the rug or mentally justify why actually no this story is totally happy and fine and i don't know why you have to see racism everywhere. He was about as unambiguously racist as you can get, which is actually kind of, uh, refreshing compared to today's dogwhistles and constant denial.

Eh I think they do both. For example My Little Pony is supposedly a super-deep incredibly wonderful show with so many levels, man, but Warhammer is a 100% dead serious totally not a parody thing.

I dunno, that is typically a fantastic way to get nerds to tell you that he wasn't very racist at all, product of his time, therefore shut up you big gay woman. Which despite the fact that even if that were true would not change that we're reading him in out time and not his. But nerds cannot deal with flaws in anything they like, no matter how gaping they are.

You're right, but the reason they see Warhammer as 100% serious is because they think it's realistic. The depth doesn't come from the metaphoric or allegoric aspects of the work, but how "accurate" the setting, characters, and actions are based on their worldview. Basically, Warhammer doesn't extra levels because it's already portraying life as it really is. Then again, this could be exactly what you're saying just with different words, thus confirming this as one of my more moments. The Vosgian Beast posted:Show me a non-surface level reading of a Horus Heresy book. TBH I just used that as an example because I'm on a bit of a 40k lore-binge.

They think words and images can forcibly change the way you understand the world, such that you suddenly wake up and look in horror at what had previously taken for granted. After that revelation, you'll love the patriarchy (which is always the step I'm confused about) and a subset of weird psuedo-conservative beliefs. The Vosgian Beast posted:Show me a non-surface level reading of a Horus Heresy book. The Emperor represents the failures of Patriarchy. Specifically in Horus Rising, the failure of patriarchs to construct proper journeys into adulthood. Rather than being adults, the Primarchs have journeyed into a stunted manhood, which inevitably leaves them open to the corrupting energies of Chaos.

Malcador the Sigilite did warn the Emperor that he should have made at least some of the Primarchs his daughters instead of all being his sons, possibly for that very reason.
