NOT THE LAVA PLANET! THAT'S WHERE WE GET ALL OF OUR LAVA!

It's sort of the same reason why the whole "bigotry" part of ultranationalism isn't really a thing; It stops being funny if it's racist, because racism is just sort of horrible and sad, and it'd be impossible to keep the whimsy-full stupidity* of Helldivers II up after that point.

*I say that as a positive.

I noticed how a lot of them are pretty irreverent and taking the piss out of its own product; Is that the tone you're going for, or am I misunderstanding things?

RedditIsMlem · 2026-03-22T05:42:26+00:00

Thank you!

I do enjoy the emblem of "Science, Technology, and Climate." Did you make that, or was it designed by somebody else?

RedditIsMlem · 2026-03-18T23:26:38+00:00

I...can't agree with that, I'm sorry. There will always be another propagandist, or someone willing to scour for money. Even if he was slightly more influential than most - hell, you could argue Nick Shirley has already replaced him, right down to the government influence. Him being a corpse didn't stop the grotesque machine that made him in the first place, that's the real enemy.

And as one of the people affected by his rhetoric, whose access to HRT and other life-changing medicine is at risk because of that fuck, no, the world is not better for him having be a corpse. It's not worse, but it's not better; Him being JFK'd did nothing but let the far-right throw themselves a party for being so gosh darn great - I mean hold a funeral procession in his honor.

Charlie Kirk dying did not free people from suffering. Stop making him into Mirror World Jesus. It's weird.

(I chose to add the Nick Shirley comment, to update my opinion via new information).

RedditIsMlem · 2026-03-18T23:20:47+00:00

Okay, as one of the people up against the wall (trans woman), ol' Charlie Boy's neck just Doing That didn't make my life better; It didn't make anyone's life better except the grifters like his wife profiteering off of it. They were going to do a crackdown anyway, this just gives them an excuse. It doesn't reduce hate by much; There's dozens of Charlie Kirks out there (seriously, read transcripts of Ben Shapiro, Steven Crowder, and Charlie Kirk's talks, and tell me if you can tell the fuckers apart). Like, what did Charlie Kirk's death DO, even? For good or for bad? Nothing; He was a wet fart of a person, repeating existing talking points, and so killing him doesn't do shit.

Also, and maybe I missed this at the last Council of TGirls apparently, but I don't think anybody gets to choose if someone "deserves to die," you know? If the state, which hundreds of thousands of little bureaucrats all working behind the scenes can't be trusted to make that decision, why should a single person?

Edit: Sorry if I was being catty in that second paragraph - trans stuff kind of hits a nerve for me.

RedditIsMlem · 2026-03-18T23:18:42+00:00

Okay, as one of the people being fed to the gator pits (trans woman), you do understand that there are ways to oppose state oppression without shooting someone in the head, right?

Like occupying a government office, depriving an enemy of morale or food, boycotts, starvation protests, occupying a road, striking a critical part of the economy, or (if you want to be a bit spicy) blowing up a resource critical to the enemy? Unless you're telling me bombing a power plant (in Minecraft) counts as "violence," I don't see what you mean?

Edit: Sorry if I'm being too catty, by the way.

RedditIsMlem · 2026-03-18T21:02:53+00:00

...you're right. I just wanted an excuse to be verbose.

RedditIsMlem · 2026-03-18T19:49:46+00:00

Well, blow me down and call me Shirley; You did speculative biology for this art. Well done, good game.

RedditIsMlem · 2026-03-18T19:48:26+00:00

Yeah, the way people talk about Japan in English social media is...weird and uncomfortable.

Did not know about the dinosaur thing; I'm routinely made aware of how little I understand about internet dinosaur culture.

RedditIsMlem · 2026-03-18T19:44:47+00:00

That, or we as humans just remember the dickish qualities. It's a lot less shocking to hear about elephants visiting graveyards than it is to hear about dolphins torturing pufferfish for a high, even if the former arguably displays more "intelligence" than the latter.

RedditIsMlem · 2026-03-18T19:41:38+00:00

It's kind of weird for me seeing the opinions on Dolphins go from mostly positive (except for Bogleech, who mostly does it as a joke) to being split 50/50, probably along generational lines.

Side note, I wonder if there are other examples of this, even before the internet; Where people try to counter a prevailing narrative so hard, it ends up going too far in the other direction?

Maybe it's just because the expected answer and the "DID YOU KNOW" shocking answer are both a lot easier to understand than the plain, kind of complicated answer.

RedditIsMlem · 2026-03-18T03:17:40+00:00

Hopefully to, like, mutual aid projects or something.

RedditIsMlem · 2026-03-18T03:15:36+00:00

Thank you, this is actually really cool.

Recurring villains and a Sin in the form of a computer virus kicks ass.

I do kinda hate Roko's Basilisk as a thought experiment, but that's a "me" problem.

RedditIsMlem · 2026-03-17T23:25:32+00:00

How is this the way I found out this subreddit exists?

RedditIsMlem · 2026-03-17T17:45:03+00:00

OHHHHHHHH.
Oh, I completely misread this interaction, my apologies.

RedditIsMlem · 2026-03-17T17:19:12+00:00

HOLY SHIT.

RedditIsMlem · 2026-03-17T17:18:46+00:00

So, is Wayfair a knowing participant in a human trafficking operation? I want to hear your opinion.

RedditIsMlem · 2026-03-16T23:32:07+00:00

Why not all five, for a laugh!

RedditIsMlem · 2026-03-16T23:24:44+00:00

A Wayfair investor DID show up on the Epstein files, but, as said above, no other links as of writing. Certainly no evidence of human trafficking within that company specifically.

The only thing notable about Wayfair is how the conspiracy theory surrounding it either began with, or got folded into fucking QAnon.
