that tweet is what happens when you alienate anyone who isn't a reactionary weirdo, and then look around yourself and go "hey! everyone I know is a reactionary weirdo, I assume that this applies to the whole world!"

to be fair the concept of "political capital" as a bunch of points that you accumulate until you've charged up enough to spend it all on whatever big legislation you want is not something that Obama had to derive from Europa Universalis

similar to how the rise of world of Warcraft can be tied to the surge of libertarians in the leadup to the 2008 election

ah but she's saying "some kids", not "many kids". I have few doubts that "the Oscars" do indeed number among the reasons Mencius Moldbug has given for wanting a Warhammer-themed Molesting Room.

Yep that's half of emotional abuse discourse. Thing I don't like is abuse.

Controlling, belittling, and threatening are the same as not doing the dishes

don't you need to have an ongoing relationship for it to be abuse of any sort, esp emotional abuse

because i thought ghosting someone was, you know, ending a relationship. these people also think dumping someone is abuse, don't they

so i was thinking about it, and if you're totally comfortable cutting off close relationships without telling the person the moment they stop being a net benefit to you, you're probably not someone who actually needs to ghost someone, but are probably someone who at least one person really should ghost asap
