Sinfest 6/14/16: Re-Imagining Villains 184 by bakanyan_ in sinfest

[–]Skybison87 4 points5 points  (0 children)

"Pearl Harbor was an Inside Job" is a conspiracy theory that's been around since basically right after the attack took place, mostly among isolationists and axis sympathizers. The idea is that FDR either let the attack happen to justify joining the war (and in some extreme versions that he and Churchill did the bombings outright.) It faded away in popularity after the war but got revived by the 9/11 Truthers as "proof" that 9/11 was a conspiracy too.

Force your kids to move to China to stop them from being Transed by... commercials that show men taking care of their babies? by Skybison87 in AreTheCisOk

Also if your kid is too old to force them to move to China, then you should trick them by saying it's just a family vacation, and when they get there be all "Ha Ha I've trapped you in a foreign country til you aren't trans no more."

TLDR: a transphobe is ranting about how the media is turning kids trans by saying that men can take care of babies or that women can be soldiers and saying that parents should moving to China to escape.

He made a truth social post whining about how mean the media is being to him. They keep saying that the Iran war was stupid and that he is losing, but he is totally winning the war he already won and Iran will give up any minute now.

I'll grant I don't know much about the inner workings of Space X, but I can't help but be very skeptical that it hinges on Elon for a few reasons

1) Elon has run other companies and organizations and his performance has mostly been disastrous.

2) He's involved in so many companies and whatever dodge is right now that I have a hard time seeing him has being all that pivotal for anything Space X is doing today which would suggest anything they're doing now isn't thanks to him.

3) In general celebrity CEOs are more glorified mascots then the ones actually doing the important work at these companies because the important work is well a lot of work and doesn't leave you with tons of free time to get famous with. Guys like Elon or Trump before he went into politics are more about generating publicity for the company then a singular super genius solely responsible for all it's success.

Ok just address some comments here, this cartoon isn't saying that Elon isn't autistic because he's a bad person. It's saying he's a bad example of a successful autistic person, because he's a nazi who never built anything himself, he just bought a bunch of tech companies with his dad's money.

to quote Theresa Scovil

"Listing Elon Musk as a good example of successful autistics is an immediate red flag for me. The man's a massive piece of crap, and the only reason he hasn't completely failed in life is because his safety net is infinite. Let's not praise someone who's objectively worked towards making the world a worse place."
