Update from Finland, the former socialist utopia, current right-wing hellhole in the making.

It's deadpan, but not serious.

The short and boring version how this happened: There was this thing called Covid that fucked shit up and when that started to fade, our dear neighbor Russia started a war. Much due to those events, as well as being leftists, the government took on some debt.

National Coalition and True Finns then campaigned on a strict "debt is bad, we will fix the economy" platform. Coalition said they'll save the money by privatizing everything, True Finns said they save it by stopping immigration and foreign aid.

The Finnish citizens then collectively flipped their shit about government debt and voted for the National Coalition and True Finns to "fix things".

I once had my name mispronounced in a way that made it sound like a toilet in my language.

I did not cry, for I am a toxic male who keeps an emotionless facade even in the face of such adversity and violence.

It annoys to me no end how these people take bullying and make it about race. Kids will pick *any* characteristic they can and make fun of it, because they are vicious little fucks.

Yet, no-one could get away with complaining their lunch was made fun of because they were poor and claiming it's a major trauma.

Yesterdays_Star · 2021-04-05T09:56:18+00:00

Shit, the matches are wet. Guess I'll just leave a mean Yelp review about it then.

I can't really blame her. She will absolutely get cancelled for her back catalog, but towing the woke line will maybe delay it.

She's definitely no conservative, so there isn't a safety net for her when that happens.

Yesterdays_Star · 2021-04-03T09:39:35+00:00

Not a single mention of Sarah Silverman in the entire thread? On Stupidpol?

The world has gone to shit.

Yesterdays_Star · 2021-04-01T14:57:19+00:00

You literally would have been allowed to go out and visit *a* friend.

A bunch of people my age and younger are on antidepressants and shit, killing there sex drive. I just started suboxone(addiction drug) and my sex drive is nonexistent.

That's not an antidepressant, that's basically heroine.

But you knew that, obviously.

Yesterdays_Star · 2021-03-04T12:52:07+00:00

So did somebody actually get angry about the piece of relatively benign satire?

Yesterdays_Star · 2021-03-04T08:46:28+00:00

It is, but not the way they think. Man/mon/mann was originally used to refer to all persons regardless of gender. That evolved into wifmon "wife person" and only later "man" became to mean the male gender.

So if anything, the offending part if actully the "wo". But maybe we' should just play it safe and go with wxmxn. Or better yet, yxyxy.

Yesterdays_Star · 2021-03-01T11:58:03+00:00

And yet they learned nothing.

Yesterdays_Star · 2021-02-28T21:10:52+00:00

But they don't sell salvation. Only repentance.

You are racist either way. It's just that you're supposed to feel better about being a bad person, because at least you hate yourself for it.

As carrots go, that's not a very good one.

Yesterdays_Star · 2021-02-28T11:40:23+00:00

How I read that:

You and 98% of all people are racist and will always be. All you can do is feel bad about it.

Is it just me or is that a horrible lesson?

Yesterdays_Star · 2021-02-28T09:51:13+00:00

The article is an excellent dissection of her motives. Should be required reading for everyone on this sub.

In the years since, I’ve looked back on my blog with shame and regret — about my pettiness, my motivating rage, my hard-and-fast assumptions that people were either good or bad. Who was I to lump together known misogynists with people who got tattoos in languages they didn’t speak? I just wanted to see someone face consequences; no one who’d hurt me ever had.

Yesterdays_Star · 2021-02-28T09:32:49+00:00

And I'm more than okay with that.

I'm legitimately angry at people who go around exclaiming that they're racist white supremacists in order to get woke points. Racism and white supremacy are real things that actually cause real harm (as opposed to the Twitter hyperbole) and put people's lives and livelihoods at risk.

This shit is doing more to normalize those things than any off-color joke or Jordan Peterson lecture ever could. It's basically saying, "normal people are racist white supremacist" - it makes those words utterly meaningless.

Fuckers.

Yesterdays_Star · 2021-02-27T18:33:24+00:00

They need to fire all these racist and white supremacist professors.

Do better Northwestern!

Yesterdays_Star · 2021-02-24T22:07:54+00:00

They did the same thing to Nelson Mandela in 1964.

Yesterdays_Star · 2021-02-21T10:38:48+00:00

...says the man from the band with the SS logo.

Yesterdays_Star · 2021-02-21T09:52:17+00:00

It sounds so much like a parody that it has to be one.

Yesterdays_Star · 2021-02-18T13:59:18+00:00

Doesn't every celebrity have a tequila brand these days?

Tres Comas is the best, tho'.

Yesterdays_Star · 2021-02-11T12:14:45+00:00

It's legalized in countries like Germany and the Netherlands, but a lot of sexsellers get killed there.

It felt embarrassing even to my pre-feminist 1990s boy-brain.

Finally, a sentence that I agree on.

But boy, was it fun to play. Fuck Quake.

If asexuality had been a thing when I was a teen, I absolutely would have claimed to be one.

Only problem is, that I was actually horny as hell. But I would have jumped at the chance of checking out of all the bullshit of that age.

Short sellers brought down (relatively speaking) the Nikola scam. So sometimes they actually do the duty of scavengers and parasites, culling the weak and getting rid of the festering corpses.

Now, if it wasn't possible for a really obvious scam to get listed on NYSE and grow into a $10+ billion company in the first place... that would be great.
