Need to let loose a primal scream without collecting footnotes first? Have a sneer percolating in your system but not enough time/energy to make a whole post about it? Go forth and be mid: Welcome to the Stubsack, your first port of call for learning fresh Awful you’ll near-instantly regret.
Any awful.systems sub may be subsneered in this subthread, techtakes or no.
If your sneer seems higher quality than you thought, feel free to cut’n’paste it into its own post — there’s no quota for posting and the bar really isn’t that high.
The post Xitter web has spawned soo many “esoteric” right wing freaks, but there’s no appropriate sneer-space for them. I’m talking redscare-ish, reality challenged “culture critics” who write about everything but understand nothing. I’m talking about reply-guys who make the same 6 tweets about the same 3 subjects. They’re inescapable at this point, yet I don’t see them mocked (as much as they should be)
Like, there was one dude a while back who insisted that women couldn’t be surgeons because they didn’t believe in the moon or in stars? I think each and every one of these guys is uniquely fucked up and if I can’t escape them, I would love to sneer at them.
god, the comments got heavily raided by various types of lazy TESCREAL:
and not only did none of these fuckers get the point, they’re also making points that aren’t at all common outside of TESCREAL circles? like, no normal person I know naturally slips into the “but think of the Bayesian children” modality of thought.
is this just how Blue Sky is? I don’t browse it much outside of David’s threads.
Not in my exp. Standard is also to just block annoying people asap so they don’t show up in your replies/other peoples feeds. The blocking function is very strong on bsky. (I do worry that the more ‘influencer’ types (or people who just don’t care) will not block annoying people because it drives more views to their content, so that is why you would find more of those comments under something from Evans than a random poster).
Lot of people also have the ‘do not show things to people not logged in’ feature turned on.
there’s a couple of people on lemmy believing that immortality magic tech is real
Huh, I gotta scroll down all the way to hell to see these comments. I really really don’t feel like I should have to defend this stupid platform that seems specifically tailored to kill decentralized alternatives, but so far I’ve seen mostly healthy disdain for various fascist bullshit, including our Very Good Friends.
these were all 3-10 comments from the OP for my sort, but I don’t have a bluesky account so not being logged in might influence how I’m seeing the thread
