El Estrago Bonito posted:an extremely gross looking weirdo who shows up at protests with a big orthodox cross he made out of plywood and is generally a huge creep. There's one of those guys who used to come to every single street festival at my old town and dragged his son there too (always dressed up in full boyscout uniform for some goddamn reason) and get on a megaphone and annoy people until the cops made him shuffle down the street. He made his son hold the giant plywood cross, I assume that's why he brought him.

Neoreactionaries (or at least Mikey Anissimov) disagree with Dugin,as far as I can tell, as far as Dugin's being a proponent of Eurasianism is concerned.

Wes Siler, at Outside magazine, is very good at both survival on the land and writing about doing so. He's written: Everything Wrong with Peter Thiel’s Doomsday Survival Plan: And how you can prepare for the apocalypse better than a billionaire. It's quite amusing.

The funniest thing about rev is he pre-emptively blocked me on twitter despite my only activity being arguing with literal nazis (as in have SS or Himmler in their name). So either I'm on some sort of "dangerous leftist" blockbot list he has subscribed to or he took offense to me saying that the Holocaust happened to a few too many Russian teenagers.

I mean the left did kinda overblow the role of biological determinism during the fight for equality but that wasn't a conspiracy to divide people it was a conspiracy to win over the kind of idiot who thinks that if gay people have any tiny fraction of a percent of a chance of turning un-gay by choice they should be forced to do that instead of just letting them be.

And here you have someone trying to prove the left wrong by convincing himself that he can turn himself gay. also proving that the left is the real homophobes because they aren't islamophobic and see there are so many gay racists who hate muslims and love trump. of course if you've followed wesley for any length of time you'll be aware of his scaremongering regarding the gay plague of aids.

Computer science guy Scott Aaronson made a post on his blog a couple of days ago complaining about Trump's insane immigrant thing. Fair enough, but he also asked Trump supporters how they could possibly defend this and... well, read the comments. Some grade-A insanity from the usual suspects.

The Vosgian Beast posted:Oh poo poo I forgot that guy sure, little of what he's been blogging about for the past days has been based in reality and i'd hate to nurture his paranoia further or be lovely about mental illness in general, but how can you write something like this: brazenautomaton talking about the left posted:They don’t want debate. They were never empowered by debate. They never gained anything from debate. Opponents offering them to debate never ever ever helped them ever in the history of ever. When they debate, they lose. Because their ideas are incoherent, just buckets of emotion-vomit being slung about. They cannot stand up to debate. ...and not notice the irony? i know i'm being an rear end in a top hat by pointing this out and probably am punching down to some extent, but brazenautomaton, really, is an extreme case of something that's true of many rationalists and especially postrationalists. they've swallowed whole the concept of the left, and feminazis, and whatever else, as a vindictive alien menace upon them and everyone like them, and that's why, if they're not terribly racist and sexist themselves, they're quite open to racism and sexism around them, and particularly open to defending racists and sexists. the godawful rationalist / postrationalist discourse on recent political goings-on is indicative enough. i'm too lazy to unpack this further or make a better post, but i think in the hundreds of pages of this thread this point has been made crystal clear. i empathise with brazenautomaton, i really do. i see his overblown rhetoric and reactions to things and i can relate them to my own experiences with mental illness, and that's just made it more clear in my mind that rationalism and postrationalism is just a loving terrible community, or if you will, ~*memespace*~ for anyone like that to be around, let alone in general. So basically this - Saeku posted:This guy is convinced that leftists are vicious, hateful, and personally out to cause him suffering. I can understand where that comes from when one of his main interaction points with the world is making ill-thought-out right wing posts on tumblr. If I could, I'd pull anyone like brazenautomaton as far away from that general space as possible. Everyone's welcome to a little bit of their own paranoid political delusions, at least if you consider how things are right now. But when you have thoughts like these: quote:I don’t even like the right wing! I think Trump is awful and his policies will presage ruin and despair for America! But right-wingers aren’t the ones gloating about how much they want to hurt me, love hurting me, think it is morally good to hurt me, and then say I am not permitted to notice that happening! there's something very wrong going on, particularly when said person is in an environment that imo is just going to make it worse. I'm going to make this my last post on brazenautomaton out of respect for him. I know gently caress all about him and nothing I've written above should mean anything to him nor should affect what anyone else concludes about him. If he reads this (and knowing what he thinks of this place, I sincerely hope he never does), I'd want him to know that his thoughts on how the left etc. is persecuting him or spreading lies about him out of contempt for people like him and all that - ignoring the merit or whatever in order to avoid gaslight-y accusations - are, in my sincere belief, hurting him. And I hope he realises that being around people who reinforce these thoughts (i.e. neoreactionaries, MRAs, alt-rightists) may be similarly harmful. Good luck to him and I hope he finds some peace of mind no matter how or where.
