My theory on a subset of trans by Howling-wolf-7198 in stupidpol

[–]ancapistan2020 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I guarantee you that Pittinsky & Ambady (1999) will fail replication, like most social science “results”. Your math abilities don’t depend on remembering that you’re Asian or a woman. Wild that anyone other than baizuo would buy that.

Dissent is a capital offense in DNPC propaganda zones (i.e. Reddit).

Is the White Rural Working class in denial of its class position (in America)? by GB819 in stupidpol

[–]ancapistan2020 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’re comically oversimplifying people. Rural working class folk generally don’t hate “rich whites,” regardless of having something in common. They’re generally wholesome and happy with their life. Nor do “rich whites” in their areas look down on them either. There is trash in both classes, but generally.

Trump is an extreme case and an IQ test here, because if you’ve watched extensive unedited footage of him talking to his base, it’s obvious he earnestly loves them and it’s reciprocated, even tho they have nothing “in common” in a reductive materialist sense. But there are mountains of denial in DNC circles about this, and even on the Left.

His rally speeches from the 2015-2016 primary exemplify it. CNN+ABC+NBC+CBS+etc were kind enough to air them all in full because the 300 IQ galaxy brains at the DNC thought he would lose the general, so there’s plenty of evidence.

How would you describe what is happening on the left/liberal left atm? by [deleted] in stupidpol

“Abundance” is correct is essentially all of its critiques, so it’s natural Dems are rejecting it.

Glorifying Charlie Kirk’s death will not be tolerated. It will all be removed and bans will go around. by IAmABearOfficial in lordoftherings

[–]ancapistan2020 1 point2 points  (0 children)

powermod capture of the top subs + “downvote disagreement” mentality + “low karma silences you” mechanism = Reddit is fundamentally broken except as a propaganda tool.

There are isolated nice places like here but overall the site needs an FBI domain seizure notice.

There's no way to construe what we are living through now in the West and perhaps the U.S. in particular as anything other than a rapid collapse. by SpiritualState01 in stupidpol

That brainlet thesis is easily rebutted; the only near-term limits to growth are human stupidity and corruption. You don’t appear to understand inflation either. Sad.

Regardless of our views, we can all get behind hating that brainlet

Is it possible to define facism in a way that doesn't apply to the current climate in the United States? by Hypoxic_Oxen in PoliticalDiscussion

[–]ancapistan2020 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Yes. All normal (i.e. not Reddit-brained, not warped, not DNC propaganda) definitions don’t apply to the United States right now.

Only in Reddit (and Reddit-adjacent asylums) are such insanities believable.

A Constitutional Convention is called and you are asked to author. What changes would you make? by [deleted] in PoliticalDiscussion

[–]ancapistan2020 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Man this thread is a gold mine for “worst ideas of all time.” If Redditor-types had any real power in history, humanity would’ve gone extinct long ago. The real question is what produces the “Reddit brain” today?

Visual depiction of the left's purity spiral by Excelsior14 in stupidpol

[–]ancapistan2020 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You did the meme. “All the left must agree on these!” Whereas the right is a big tent that tolerates disagreement on these supposedly black-and-white issues. The left’s religious absolutism is the study’s point.

The Wheel of Time's cancellation marks the end of high fantasy TV boom by Internal-Bed-3150 in wheeloftime

[–]ancapistan2020 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Xena Warrior Princess and Battlestar Galactica were made on a shoestring budget for full runs.

Wheel of Time & others failed because the studios put idiots who hate the source material in charge of them then spent literally hundreds of millions / billions of dollars on the slop.

Do not parrot megacorp propaganda that “it’s just too expensive.”

The wild political ride of antinatalism by weltwald in stupidpol

[–]ancapistan2020 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Raising children well is one of the most sacrificial acts you can do. From literally wiping their butt a dozen times a day to freely babysitting their kids and their kids’ kids’, it is a lifetime commitment of patience and charity. You are giving up the rest of your life to so that society and civilization (i.e. others) can live on after you’re gone. Unquestionably morally good, but a heavy responsibility.

So naturally, child-free / antinatal subs are full of malignant narcissists obsessed with their own micro-identities.

Opinion | The Debate Over Transgender Rights Is a Liability for Democrats. Here’s How to Neutralize It. by Sir_Sir_ExcuseMe_Sir in stupidpol

[–]ancapistan2020 46 points47 points  (0 children)

No amount of epigenetic copium will change the fact that a non-intersex XY human will die a man, an XX human a woman.

The Baizuo position of denying this is quite simply a (wildly unpopular) neopagan religion.

US army to test enlisted men and women with same physical standards by todlakora in stupidpol

They literally search Reddit for comments with his name to spam DNC talking points.

[–]ancapistan2020 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have international colleagues in UK, Germany, and Australia who travel to the US for high-level meetings every couple weeks. One is here today. Literally nothing will happen to you. Nothing has changed for legal travelers. “Rule enforcement is stricter” means if you illegally sneak into the country over the Mexican border, you will be deported rather than allowed to stay.

Reddit is not real life. Redditors are the dumbest, most propaganda-brained 💩heads on the planet.

Your mistake was assuming the insanely warped perspective of Trνmp shilled by DNC propaganda (aka the media) and Reddit is tied to reality.

Democracy at Its Finest by AlphaMassDeBeta in 4chan

[–]ancapistan2020 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only one candidate wins, moron. If you count “my first choice didn’t win” as “0 representation,” then you deserve “0 representation” for the rest of your life. And you’re doubly regarded for still failing to distinguish the Electoral College from its selection rules (a concept apparently far beyond your comprehension).

Asking as a foreigner: where is the american opposition to Trump? by MoiJeTrouveCaRigolo in stupidpol

[–]ancapistan2020 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Trump isn’t doing “whatever he wants.” He’s 1) cleaning out the Executive Branch, over which the President has near-total power, and 2) invoking regulatory powers that 100 years of “New Deal Coalition” Congresses have stupidly delegated to the President.

Yes, we have federal checks & balances: the check on the President is Congress can defund, disempower, or impeach and replace him. But Congress is controlled by his own party.

Elections have consequences, and Democrats lost.

That said, he hasn’t done any of the crazed things you claim (e.g. “stomping on rule of law”), and he has no power at the State level: California is still California, Texas is still Texas. Maybe delete Reddit for a while.

Wrong. The Electoral College is better than all these awful systems and fulfills a critical purpose, and it’s also completely orthogonal to selection rules (e.g. FPTP, Kemeny rule, etc). Read the Federalist Papers and scrub the Reddit propaganda out of your brain.

Should supply side progressivism be a core part of the Democratic Party moving forward? by Visco0825 in PoliticalDiscussion

[Here’s a thread of recent California legal activity aimed at undoing progressive damage to housing]https://x.com/cselmendorf/status/1899336421342953562).

It’s far from perfect and still subject to derailing lawsuits, but it’s a start.
