yeah the hack bad actors have discovered is that if you shout “cancel culture” loud enough nobody asks what you actually did to bring the hammer down on you

or, at least, you build enough of a different (worse) audience that it doesn’t matter

I think the idea of "cancel culture" persists mainly because it conveniently is some outside force acting on someone rather than them torching their reputation all on their own

"republicans used to be less nazi because our institutions heavily socially policed their nazi tendencies. then they purchased all the institutions and made them stop doing that. as a result republicans are now full nazi

the lesson here is that the institutions were wrong to police them before"

Something I’ve been mulling over for a while is that you don’t really need to have any kind of censorship or hate speech laws to deal with this for the
most part.

Just end the undue support/grace/dicksucking they get from the media and dirtbag centrists

Quote Tweet of:

Young Republicans

We are appalled by the vile and inexcusable language revealed in the Politico article published today. Such behavior is disgraceful, unbecoming of any Republican, and stands in direct opposition to the values our movement...

“many prominent young republicans are actual Nazis” is a self-censoring fact at this point

normie swing voters will literally refuse to believe it and the media refuses to report it because it would call everything else they’ve done into question

BeijingPalmer @beijingpalmer.bsky.social · 18h

while 'young republicans are literal nazis' is well known to folks here, the extent of it is surprisingly not that commonly known even in media and analyst circles, let alone normal people.

Considering this is from “the center for heterodox social science“ I would guess it’s from the researcher‘s asscrack

Once again struck by how many prominent "heterodox" thinkers split off and create their own institutions not because of academic censoriousness but because no one who closely examines their methodology can possibly take them seriously.

Just gonna leave this here.

In survey data, LGBT young people report consistently worse mental health than heterosexual young people.
Whether this is because LGBT causes mental illness (i.e. the minority stress or anomie hypotheses), or because
mental illness causes individuals to be LGBT is beyond the scope of this work.2

Footnote 2: Meyer, I. H. (1995). "Minority stress and mental health in gay men." Journal of health and social behavior: 38-56; Michael Bailey, J.
(2020). "The Minority Stress Model Deserves Reconsideration, Not Just Extension." Archives of Sexual Behavior 49(7): 2265-2268.

recurring gripe of mine: stop talking about these people like they’re fucking supervillains, Palmer Luckey is grifter bullshit artist who is going to steal a lot of public money in exchange for buggy vaporware, he’s not Lex Luthor. they get off when breathlessl hyperventilating about them like this.

The Merchant of Death, billionaire Palmer Luckey, rebranded the DOD the Department of War.

Peter Thiel/Palantir gave his company, Andruil, a billion dollars in January.

This is Palmer “I love killer robots” Luckey.

I really dislike this posting technique of chucking out a couple of insults, then pretending that you are looking for reasonable responses and scolding anyone who takes their cue from the tone of the original post.
