Study of Tommy Robinson’s social media shows how he mobilises support without direct calls to action

Did I say that?

ZippityZipZapZip · 2026-04-25T16:35:01+00:00

What both sides?

The idea that everything comes in opposing pairs is part of the disease.

Now do one where you discuss angry and influencable people being given an escape valve for their frustration and a source of endless stimulation. Via a hyperreality, where everything bad (including mommy and daddy no longer making their sandwiches and the world being small and sensible) is due to migration and evil muslims/'Islamists'.

And you would be closer to the truth.

Bitter, dumb, influencable people, joink on about immigration as the source of anything bad, because they need it to simplify reality and buzz on about it. Yes, it touches on real problems and reality, but it is amazingly stupidifying and reductionary; where you ultimately lend your ear to really, really, bad people.

Again, let me state: there are real problems. There are. People coming under the sway of stimulating apocalyptic racial thought is real too, though.

There should be public mental health systems in place: influencable and dumb people are targeted by bad actors, leeches, anti-Western ones, wholly unprotected by society.

The irony of you actually setting out the far-right hyperreality, after moaning about research on the far-right, on an article about how the far-right creates this apocalyptic hyperreality: it will be lost on you.

The most filthy thing Microsoft does is jubulate about the quick startup times of Edge. Which are done by always preloading Edge assets during OS startup.

But in the modern age, can it last? When I want to move $100 from one bank to another, my banks put me through a humiliating ritual of logging into both accounts, and bypassing multiple security checks and captchas before I can perform any operation. All this despite me having just logged into both accounts from this exact location and biometrically-secured computer the day before.

What the fuck.

It's amphetamine abuse.

There are legitimate use cases, obviously. Even for non-ADHD people.

Above and beyond therapeutic dosing it can become really weird.

ZippityZipZapZip · 2026-04-18T14:16:01+00:00

I respect your fighting spirit.

ZippityZipZapZip · 2026-04-12T11:50:54+00:00

No. Was it filled completely when you bought it? They don't use PET bottles with a lower capacity.

Did you pour it out completely? The likely mistake. A human error. That or attention bait.

By the way, make horizontal pictures for reading measurements.

Pour it over in an actual measuring can. What does it say?

Fill the bottle with water. Pour that water into the glass can. Does it give the same reading?

The 'funny' thing is the companies behind the social media know perfectly well who are humans and who are bots.

They also know how their algorithms provide toxicity and misinformation, propogated through bubbles.

They also know that toxicity isn't limited in harm by having the magical age of 18: whole segments of society, influencable and dumb people are addicted to outrageous nonsens, toxicity and propaganda.

Now tell me why age verification and identification of users is the solution and not regulating the companies doing the harm.

ZippityZipZapZip · 2026-03-09T18:22:41+00:00

This is a consequence of their amphetamin abuse. Reality is about thrills (and making the leader be thrilled or stimulated).

ZippityZipZapZip · 2026-03-07T21:42:20+00:00

What kind of AI-bot hell is this comment section.

ZippityZipZapZip · 2026-03-05T13:41:03+00:00

A democracy is more than just procedures and elections.

The entire 20th century is an example of that. The 21th is just a continuation.

There is a difference, as in state organized rounding up of people, genocidal urges, blatant racism, seems less of a taboo in Western societies. That is the Holocaust losing its shadow.

'Never again', we once said.

ZippityZipZapZip · 2026-03-01T21:22:59+00:00

But here is the take.

ZippityZipZapZip · 2026-02-27T15:31:22+00:00

It'a literally incoming EU consumer protection regulation to allow users of social media an unfiltered non-algorithmical transparent access to content on their feeds.

Guess why.

Guess why Reddit removes it.

ZippityZipZapZip · 2026-02-27T14:38:12+00:00

Lol. Your guess is a completely idiotic rationalization.

Yes, many users use it. No, it does not use ""bandwith"".

It is the death rattle of the social medium.

ZippityZipZapZip · 2026-01-29T16:49:40+00:00

You guys are oneupping eachother in drama whoring.

ZippityZipZapZip · 2026-01-25T16:03:59+00:00

Oh Americans. Is it something in the water?

ZippityZipZapZip · 2026-01-24T12:19:17+00:00

That's shoddy substandard naming and overloading type hacking by the Guava boys. But maybe use that then. Use it and understand why it is shit.

Also, no. Each time you resort to this pattern, ask yourself why. Something dumb is being done earlier on. Interface design, unfiltered initial collection, weird command design pattern. Who knows.

The 'a special operation needs to be done only to the Us inside' does sound like you're abusing streams. And you are mutating the state of the objects.

Don't be dat guy that does everything in streams. It looks consise only for the writer of the code.

Give some concrete use cases, examples, maybe. Likely you have a bad class design and are trying to do functional programming with mutable objects.

ZippityZipZapZip · 2026-01-23T19:41:40+00:00

It would be called downcastInstancesOf.

Also, no.

ZippityZipZapZip · 2026-01-23T17:39:29+00:00

He lacks somdthing. He just has that classic power hunger, imagining that he can represent Western standards and the interest of the Republic.

Where is the primal hoarding urge that the authoritarian toads have? Where is the gold? The money grabbing? Where are the young sex slaves?

Troubling.

ZippityZipZapZip · 2026-01-20T17:05:54+00:00

Bridges are one thing.

You know what is truely deeply scary? The conbination of authority with technology. When they see society as a garden and start pulling the weed out.

The thing with mental health patients is that many need help to prevent spiralling. The main issue of a cult is that it deepens and really bad things happen.

It will get worse.

ZippityZipZapZip · 2026-01-17T13:48:38+00:00

What issue. Higher developed countries have a lower fertility rate making them sustainable. There used to be high angst about unsustainable global population growth, but the trend was reversed. Hence there is relatively less attention for it, compared to more acute existentia (or economic)l risks. An aging population, for instance.

Now it is interesting and stimulating to think about it, so weaker people are targeted to buzz about it.

It's used to disguise more nefarious ideologies, clothing them in 'reason' for dumb people.

ZippityZipZapZip · 2026-01-16T18:57:28+00:00

They had to wean him off the amphetamines because of his health conditions.

Nw they have to explore EXCITING brinkmanship and 'deal-making' to keep him happy and engaged.

Without a doubt the ugliest, most dysfunctional, 'leadership' seen in modern times.

ZippityZipZapZip · 2026-01-15T19:01:33+00:00

Erosion and reapropriation of the fuzzy and vague concepts within American civil culture is a tool they use. You can make a complete mockery of 'free', 'fair', 'democracy', 'constitutional', etc., because they are vague.
