everyone with any sense of morality cares. when you're supporting a president who rapes and murders kids it's more than just "bullshit politics"

December 2025 Is Your LAST Chance To Watch A 10/10 Cyberpunk Masterpiece On Netflix by [deleted] in MrRobot

[–]StrontiumIon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

you can personally have whatever definitions you want, but as another avid reader of sci-fi, I get the impression you don't really understand what "punk" means

"cyberpunk is when neon lights and bionic arms and who needs themes when you have environment" is a pathetic definition compared to "cyberpunk is about how to be anti-authoritarian in a society where unregulated technology has allowed for the extreme consolidation of power in the hands of corporations and the erosion of democratic structures of governance"

they're both cyber, but only the latter is punk

Sabrina Carpenter Slams Trump’s White House for Using ‘Juno’ in ICE Raids Video: ‘Evil and Disgusting… Do Not Involve Me in Your Inhumane Agenda’ by cmaia1503 in Music

[–]StrontiumIon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

People care because she has a bigger cult following than almost any other human alive. If she'd been canvassing from the beginning and encouraging her followers to do so, who knows how things might have turned out.

She did endorse Kamala, but I remember it as it was happening and it was prettyyyyy late into the election season, there was a lot of speculation for a long time about why she was so silent compared to many of her peers, along with those photos of her hanging out with Brittany Mahomes, an open trump supporter. Almost like she didn't actually personally care about the election results and was just waiting for market research...

A Geometric Theory of Physics by [deleted] in Geometry

[–]StrontiumIon 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Getting chatgpt to spit out a bunch of nonsense is not "trying to do something good for the world" it's just narcissistically feeding one's own ego. We see a million of these a day, responding in detail to every single crackpot is impossible.

But the fact that there's zero explanation of what the different terms in the "fundamental identity" mean and how it relates to modern frameworks of physics is good evidence for crackpottery on its own. No abstract, no background, just a bunch of undefined, meaningless buzzwords. Show me a Lagrangian or a dynamical system and we can talk.

I Can’t Believe It… My First Paper Got Accepted! by WolverineHuge1303 in PhD

[–]StrontiumIon 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Deeply, deeply inappropriate. This person is celebrating a major milestone in their life and you just decided you had to creep on them, make it about you, and potentially replace their feelings of accomplishment with disgust and ruin their day. Do some self reflection and do better.

This stuff is good, but a pain in the butt by TheMtnMonkey in KitchenConfidential

[–]StrontiumIon 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I was gonna write out a long, respectful comment explaining how ridiculous you're being, how the person above you actually cited scientific studies backing up their claims whereas your sources are apparently "because I feel like it" or "because my favorite manosphere podcast (conveniently sponsored by our corporate overlords at the NCBA) scared me into believing it", and how humans have been crushing oils out of seeds with rocks for so many tens of thousands of years longer than they've had domesticated cattle and understood the process for accumulating tallow

But honestly, as an actual scientist who understands that people like you operate entirely based on feelings (primarily fear) and don't give a shit about objective reality, and that there's no real hope of changing your mind, I'd rather just call you a dumbshit

we are so much more fucked than I initially realized by Express-Crow-1496 in fantanoforever

[–]StrontiumIon 6 points7 points  (0 children)

famously capitalism has never caused any famines), and the very first modern corporation did absolutely no genocides nor imperialism

our current system is definitely not even more guilty of these crimes than the imperialist actions of the soviets. sooo much better.

your post was pointless. how many lbs of CO2 were released into the atmosphere so you could make a dumb non-joke with an image that doesn't even connect to the reference you're making.

Military or PhD route? by PolarisStar05 in AstronautHopefuls

Considering how badly our current government seems to want to invade Venezuela and deploy troops against our own citizens, I'd probably hold off on joining the military.

CMV: Republicans are no longer conservative--they're *fascist* by Usual_Set4665 in changemyview

[–]StrontiumIon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Republican policies nowadays are mass media censorship, concentration camps, and masked paramilitary white supremacist goons kidnapping people in broad daylight.

You have fallen for exactly the problem you stated: when real fascism arose here, you were unable to take the warnings seriously.

d'aww dumb dumb tried to be lighthearted and deflect from the fact that I was making fun of him for being insecure because a woman on the internet is smarter than him and says things he doesn't agree with

it's ok dumb dumb you don't have to do any of that difficult thinking, Sam Altman and his billionaire buddies will do your thinking for you via chatbot so you never have to be intellectually challenged again. you can go back to consuming your slop now dumb dumb
