When the internet was still just a network of message boards between a bunch of universities, each september with the new intake of students there would be an influx of new users unfamiliar with posting ettiquette, thus making it a rough time for established users.

When AOL (I think) first opened it up to basically anyone, this new user influx never stopped. The internet was flooded with more and more people who had no grounding in the established traditions of the net at that time, to the point they basically entirely usurped the original culture and replaced it with their own. Much to the annoyance of the old guard. Thus every day since then has been the eternal september.

Re: 16 year old nazi dude.

I reckon that this kid will stop a lot of his bullshit once he goes outside and talks to real, normal people.

Not because those real normal people will change his mind, nor even because by seeing real normal people he will realize that his ideas and ideals are wrong. But because the second he starts talking to a real normal person about his "bitches be whores, hoorah for white race!" nonsense, a normal person will make a face and excuse themselves, never to talk to him again.

So he will soon realize that he had better cut that poo poo out unless he wants to sit alone at lunch for the rest of his life. So once he cuts that poo poo out, and actually starts interacting with people, then the first two reasons I mentioned above will kick in.

At least this is what I hope would happen.

I'm not sure if you're claiming otherwise, but writings on trans people date back to at least the turn of the 20th century. Berlin had a burgeoning trans acceptance movement rooted in the Institut für Sexualwissenschaft in the wake of World War I, which even carried out sexual reassignment surgeries, but which ended rather abrubtly in the 40s. None of the research carried out there survived, but I suspect the idea that being trans and being gay were unrelated had been put to paper somewhere.

Along with the greatest double-agent ever


quote:

Operation FORTITUDE

In January 1944 the Germans told Pujol that they believed that the Allies were preparing for a large-scale invasion of Europe and that they looked to him to keep them informed of developments. This prepared the way for what was to be GARBO's greatest coup.

The German High Command's assessment of the Allies' intentions was correct. Under the codename OVERLORD, British and American plans for an invasion of Occupied Europe were indeed under way. What the Germans did not know, however, was that part of the plan involved a massive piece of deception - in the form of Operation FORTITUDE, in which GARBO was to play a leading role.

Between January 1944 and D-Day over 500 radio messages (four transmissions a day) passed between GARBO and Madrid who in turn re-transmitted them direct to Berlin. The reports, which came from all parts of the GARBO network, disguised the status of the OVERLORD preparations, but also served another important purpose.

During the early invasion planning stages it was decided that if the landings were to be given the best chance of success the German High Command would need to be misled over where precisely they would take place. Once the actual point of attack - the Normandy beaches - was decided upon, the next move was to persuade the Germans that the invasion force would actually land much further to the north, in the area of the Pas de Calais (which Hitler had thought was the most likely arrival point all along).

What is more, the Allied planners believed that this fiction could be maintained even after the landings had taken place. GARBO's agents would report authoritatively that the Normandy landings were no more than a ruse and that the main attack was still to come in the Pas de Calais.

To support this objective the Security Service agents and their case officers were carefully primed to convey information, often in mere snippets, all designed to point in one direction. Like an elaborate jigsaw puzzle, each piece would contribute to a picture, the full significance of which was only confirmed when it was complete.

At the heart of the deception plan was an entire "ghost" army, the First US Army Group (FUSAG). This supposedly comprised 11 non-existent divisions (150,000 men) under the command of General George S. Patton, renowned as one of the Allies' best tank commanders. The FUSAG was seemingly poised in Kent and Essex ready to join the invasion - well away from the real invasion force massing to the west. Other Security Service agents were used to substantiate the deception plan. They were so successful that German Intelligence, and, more importantly, the German High Command believed the false story completely.

To encourage them into believing that the Normandy landings were a mere diversion and that the main thrust was still to come in the Calais area, it was arranged that on 5 June GARBO would warn them to stand by for an urgent message at 03:00 on 6 June (the day of the landings). At this point he would report from an "agent" he had acquired in an assembly camp in Southampton that things were on the move, troops were being issued with embarkation kit, including vomit bags, and all signs were that the invasion force was about to leave for France.

Unaccountably, however, the German radio operator failed to keep the scheduled appointment on air. The full significance of the missed message dawned on German Intelligence the day after the invasion, earning GARBO additional credit for reliability. To rub salt in the wound, GARBO told his German contacts of his disgust at not being heard on air the previous day: "I cannot accept excuses or negligence. Were it not for my ideals I would abandon the work".

On June 9, D-Day +3, GARBO sent perhaps his most important message of all. It was very long and reported a meeting that he had had with his agents that day. GARBO asked that it be conveyed urgently to the German High Command. Pointing out that the First US Army Group under Patton had not yet moved from South East England, GARBO reported authoritatively that the purpose of the "diversionary" Normandy landings was to help ensure the success of the forthcoming assault on the Pas de Calais.

The Germans accepted this claim, the culmination of Operation FORTITUDE, as accurate. It deceived them so completely that throughout July and August, they kept two armoured divisions and 19 infantry divisions in the Pas de Calais in anticipation of an invasion. This gave the Allies precious time to establish their bridgehead.

The German Commander-in-Chief, Field Marshal Gerd von Rundstedt, was one of those taken in, even to the extent of overruling a proposal from General Erwin Rommel that his divisions should move from the Pas de Calais to assist the defence in Normandy. As the Official History of British Intelligence in WW2 comments, their "intervention in the Normandy battle really might have tipped the balance".

Ironically, GARBO's reputation among the Germans was enhanced by the whole D-Day affair. On 29 July 1944 he was informed that he had been awarded the Iron Cross by the Führer himself, for his "extraordinary services" to Germany. By return message Pujol and Harris expressed GARBO's "humble thanks" for such an honour, for which he was truly "unworthy".

Dare I ask why? I remember when the internet was blowing up over “[REDACTED] is a TERF, actually” stuff, I saw Kat Blaque mentioned in other places as a trans YouTuber people should be watching instead, but I never really got into her stuff.
To an extent it's like asking "why is water wet?" because poo poo Takes aside, she's just abrasive and up her own rear end and engages in a lot of Mean Girl bullshit. Honestly I wasn't too familiar with her oeuvre before that whole series of fiascoes but I looked her up and immediately was like "Oh, her" because we run in the same social circles and I never got good vibes off her.

As for She Who Should Not Be Named Lest The Discourse Be Summoned, I don't think anyone ever really accused her of being a terf--a transmedicalist, maybe, a triple-T perhaps, kind of an rear end in a top hat deffo, as demonstrated by her constantly sniping at trans lesbians up to the point where she came out as one and still then the undercurrent of I'M NOT ONE OF THOSE ONES THO that runs through most of her work. Not that I'm not sympathetic to her with all of the obvious self-loathing and the fact that she's doing all this during her second awful-teenager phase, but still sometimes it's best just to shut the gently caress up.

[edit] And if I was going to recommend anyone as an alternative to SWSNBNLTDBS, it would probably be Mia Mulder because looking again at Kat's poo poo, like a significant chunk of it is just awful youtube filler poo poo you could find a million other places

point is though that reducing people in history to "evil/not evil" is overly simplistic and not only prevents people today from understanding how people past lived and discussed the issues of their times, but it only serves to assert that "i, a person who does not have to deal with this issue, would surely be on the correct side of history" which is definitely not a guarantee because we don't know what the people of 75-100 years from now will condemn us for (it's single-use plastic packaging and running the air conditioner, that is what we will be condemned for)
