saying that someone should be guillotined or "sent to the gulag" is LARPing. have some balls and say something more practical like they should get a firing squad or something. they're phrases used by the kind of person that you can hear snickering in the background to zizek's coffee without cream joke during one of his talks, powerless and ineffective.

"Speaking as a [insert identity-marker]..."

People will do this to you as a way to argue from authority, even if they don't know you. For instance someone can say "Speaking as a gay man..." and then deliver their sermon to a person who for all they know, is gay. It's a (really lovely) way to steamroll a conversation and turn it into something about themselves.

Is this coming back? I remember in 2016 it got really loving annoying that every article had ton continually turn up the dial on hyperbolic language.

"Hillary DESTROYS Trump on Foreign Policy"

"Hillary EVISCERATES Trump on Trade"

"HILLARY CUTS TRUMPS DICK OFF AND FEEDS IT TO HIM ON NATIONAL PARKS POLICY"

All three links are a 10 second clip of some interview saying "I don't think he has a clear policy position on _______"

Listen to reason, man. Why make your job difficult?
When people respond to these kinds of questions like this:

"Is X the case here, or is it actually Y?"
"Yes."

"Speedrunning" a bad outcome, like "wow America is speedrunning the 1918 pandemic!"

It's an involved hobby that takes a lot of practice and communal effort, the results are quick and spectacular but people don't just bumble their way into it.

everyone's a karen now when before, nobody was a karen. is it because we did not yet have the perfect language to express in one word what kind of person the word represents? No, it's because it's a forced overused meme. It's reductionist, lazy language and using it sincerely is actually pure cringe.

I always felt it had a bit of sexism attached to it too. It became more obvious when it got picked up by centrists and the right and they'd basically apply it to all women they don't like instead of a specific subset.
