Look at the youths in the audience of this youth conference. Those are some youthful youths.

"Tyranny of the majority" is a real thing, but it tends to apply to laws that are oppressive to the unvoiced minority or that unfairly favor that same majority. It's not "literally any time something wins popular vote", the way so many right wingers frame it, and either way the Republican solution is to just award the win to their own whiny conservative minority anyway, which is the exact same problem of a group of people imposing their unfair will on the entire nation, but now it's way worse because it doesn't even have popular support.

As for the accusation that most people would agree with a dictator who held all their political views, it feels like this is just the old reductive both-sides argument. "You want your policies enacted, Republicans want their policies enacted, what's the difference???" as if a policy cannot actually be good or bad.

I hate generational dividers but as someone who is very solidly in the middle of Gen X I find it really funny every time someone posts "well actually" about millenials and their maximum age gets higher

I'm in my mid 40s and tomorrow someone's going to try to own the boomers by saying millenials are actually like 50 or something. Just lol

you aren't in the middle of gen X. Like me you are closer to the end if you are mid 40s.

The oldest millenials are 42 this year, having been born in 1980

She wasn't some prolific SA poster or something.

It wasn't even that. She checked the forums out, posted a little bit, then just moved on. Goons have been self-flagellating about it ever since.

I mean those two stories still mesh. But I also never have seen anyone self-flagellate about it. It's always framed as "I just post on SA with my pals, now that weirdo, they're a typical loving goony goon goon! They're from <subforum>!"

seems unfair to name the gen after Z , alpha, clearly we should loop back to A through W and then do alpha-and then the rest of either the greek or phonetic alphabet.

Kate used to get occasional mentions on Twitter.com from Goons letting her know that the scary weird goons (the other ones) were all gone and it was a very different forums so she could come back and post normal things with her posting buddies now. Her response was nearly always a variation on "I literally don't remember your forums but I have no idea how this is supposed to make me less creeped out".

Goon recruitment seems like a doomed proposition to begin with. Nevermind someone that some people actually know of.

That is an absolutely brutal image, and could stand spoiler tags and a cw:sexual assault. Note: it is in no way an inaccurate or inappropriate metaphor, just hard to handle and maybe not right for this thread.
