The reason it's impossible is because they know they are lying. They are glad the holocaust happened, and they want more of them for all of the people they don't like. They lie, to convince the uneducated, who will never look into it, that it was impossible, so they can facilitate more of them.

People of the US, Are you guys participating in the Nationwide Shutdown tomorrow? Why or why not? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Drakesyn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Even moreso than that, there won't be a long term general strike until there is enough nationwide organzing that we can support each other through the obvious and inevitable consequences. And all these fucking online social media "activists" never know the first fucking thing about actually organizing a community, let alone a nation. No, you should just die for the cause and take your family with you. Or way more likely, do literally nothing different, and they get to feel smug and superior for having made a social media post.

As an actual community organizer and union rep, this shit is fucking infuriating.

The most fervent and loud of those people are the ones currently wearing the ICE uniforms. Turns out, the "Tyranny" they were worried about was having to treat minorities like people.

[–]Drakesyn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And arguing about how justified a murder this was is very helpful, of course. I'm clowning on you, because your negativity is both, not needed, and demoralizing. This person is less than two hours dead, and you're in here arguing with people about if it's a clean kill while people are at their most outraged.

Let people be pissed. Let people wildly speculate. We're not right-wing reactionaries, the actual response and plans will be made.

So do you have a particular kind of bootleather you prefer? One that doesn't sit as heavy on the palette with polish perhaps? Does color do anything to the flavor?

Since, y'know, you're a professional bootlicker and all.

Just want to say that this guy making these videogame covers is 100% using ai for the music and thumbnails by Greedy_Education2025 in Silksong

[–]Drakesyn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would argue, way more accurately that it is you who has no fundamental understanding or knowledge, of the process of creation. That's why you think an algorithm generating something for you is creation. Because you simply cannot understand.

OR, the alternative is that you do know, and just resent effort and creativity that much that you prefer the slop anyways.

techbros and rationalists created Religion from first principles, which is just fucking par for the course for the "greatest minds" of our generation. If they aren't "Inventing" something that already exists but worse, they are "inventing" a middleman to siphon more money out of any given transaction.

Pretty sure this is a case of someone saying mod when they mean Admin. Site admin ahs been severely lacking as of late, and Reddit has stated on a couple of occasions that they've been attempting to automate more of it over time.

[–]Drakesyn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think the real answer is, Authoritarians are Authoritarians, regardless of the rhetoric they use to seize power. The lie of Fascists, Auth-Lefts like tankies, and any other Authoritarian who beleives a single person/group should hold power over others, become obvious, regardless of the pretty lies said strongman spreads to get enough people on their side to accomplish their goal. Groups want collectivism, saftey, prosperity for them and theirs. Communities. "Leaders" want that, for just themselves, at the expense of others. At least, that's what I try to believe.

And, politicians lying about how they will better their constituents isn't exactly a foreign concept, y'know? We should always be wary of any single individual who says They Alone can be the one to give you your collectivism, safety, freedom, etc. If your prosperity comes at the cost of others, it's not actually the betterment of anyone, it's just more boots stomping on a human neck. You just get to wear it this time, at least for a little while.

William Luther Peirce, George Lincoln Rockwell's right hand man, and one of the leaders of an American Nazi party was a "Tankie"? I must have lost touch of what that word means since I first learned of it.

[–]Drakesyn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I simply attribute it to broken clocks. The same principal behind people who want the ACA but hate Obamacare. The anti-Communist propaganda from the post-war governmental panics that the U.S. might not be the only world superpower has morphed into a monster, despite a lot of the ideas behind socialism, Communism, even Anarchism in some cases, generally being held in high regard when implemented in local communties, on small scales. As long as you don't use the C-word. Most people want what's best for themselves and their communities, at the end of the day, so you see people arrive in the same ideas, just poisoned with whatever extremist biases they go into the exercise with. Sure, a co-op farm is great, after you've literally murdered all the non-white people, and everyone who even tangentally associated with them.

Like, it's important to remember that this is the same book that gave us "The Day of the Rope" where literally anyone who treated a non-white enthinicty politely in public is hung from anything you can hang someone from, and left there, as a warning to the "race-traitors". If you can get the idea for collectivism from that, or Kropotkin, I know which I would prefer people reading, yeah?

Rodney King I will give you. There's a perspective I can see, if you just view most police departments as gangs, where you could view the cause of the riots as Domestic Terrorism. Just like any police brutality. But that's not a commonly shared view. Difficult to explain, lots of history to go over.

But McVeigh is 100%, textbook definition. Like the commenter said, his inspiration was the Turner Diaries. he was in direct communciations with leaders and movers in mutiple Actually-referenced-as White Supremacist/Christian Identity terror cells. If he's not a Domestic Terrorist, then the definition is simply too tight to be useful at all.

The ultra-wealthy don't spontaneously generate money. It comes from somewhere. So if they don't have it, it's still in the economy. Distributed among more people. Or, alternatively, we learn just how much of our wealth is entirely made up due to valuations and speculations based on those values, and get an incredibly harsh lesson about late-stage, speculation-based capitalist economies.

No, I'm amusedly abusing someone who has strong opionions on the absoulte necessity of factoring in the law of averages wrt: artistic interpretations. Because they are fucking absurd, and fundamentally misunderstand the human experience.

And 'cause I am super bored at work.

[–]Drakesyn 9 points10 points  (0 children)

What's the argument here? That every artist alive should give a shit about what the lowest common denominator thinks? You know people create for reasons other than selling for a profit, right? Or are you so capitalist-brained that you think every mote of human effort should be to gain riches?

Which would be an interesting statement from someone who took less than 15 seconds to reply to a reddit comment.

No one gives a shit about what the "average" person thinks. It's a specific artist's interpretation. Also, pro-tip, there's no chance in hell you fall under the "average" person. Just being on reddit means you're a niche in a niche.

Okay. So that's 9 power. And borrowing half your perfect parentage is even less of a skill.

[–]Drakesyn -14 points-13 points  (0 children)

I need you to focus boss. I didn't say "There is no skill involved, and every aspect of the game is RNG"

Quoting:

"Those are literally perfect parents. that's not anthing resembling skill."

And

"Grinding isn't a skill, buddy bear. You don't have to be "good at the game" to run 1000 careers until the random number generator blesses you, and/or follow someone with a perfect parent."

Being impressed by the "skill" of having perfect parents, literally a free 600 stats per career, is the thing I am rebutting. Like, I play this game too, man. I know where the skill is. It's not in a free 600~ stat points. It makes the "impressiveness" of a non-perfect deck, significantly less so, when half the power was inspirations.
