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.

(Credit and/or blame to David Gerard for starting this.)

      I didnt know anything about him, not even who he was, but DuckDuckGo search suggestions suggested I search for him and mgtow, so the search engine knew. First link shows he isn’t mgtow, he is a masculinist. https://profhugodegaris.wordpress.com/masculisting-the-mgtows/

      His wikipage on his beliefs is wild. Legit beliefs skynet or eclipse phases TITANs will attack.

      Quote from his site a free book he provides: “MASCULISM : Men’s Rebellion Against Being Manslaves to Women, An e-Textbook of 370+ Masculist Flyers for Men’s Studies Courses””

      Manslaves rise up you have nothing to lose but your money in the divorce as half your stuff was hers anyway.

          The more you read the worse it gets. And sadly, no all these manosphere dweebs write like this.

          (A lot of them also credit Heartiste, which is why his popularity, enough for Scott to publish the anti-heartiste faq, which he didnt write. Was such a bad sign. (Also the guy is a neo-nazi racist, openly hated black and jewish people)).

          Edit: And from Hugos blog: (source: https://profhugodegaris.wordpress.com/masctemp/)

          “With a video you get not only the content, but can also see the emotion behind the content. Initially I only put up a video link to YouTube, but since the CEO of YouTube is a Jewish feminazi who censors and even terminates whole masculist and MGTOW video channels”

          Look anti-Semitism. The fucker.

      First thought: “Who?”

      Second thought: “No, Hugo

      Anyway, I know nothing about this guy. His wiki page listed an imdb page, and know you get to know that he has a Bacon number of 3.
