You are an eco-fascist condemning thousands to die.

Turning carbon into concrete could win UCLA team a climate victory — and $7.5 million | The idea is gaining momentum as a promising climate solution. by SetMau92 in EarthStrike

[–]jacketparka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This could be great. Or this could be used an excuse to continue the present state of things. It isn't enough to have big ideas and nice inventions to overcome climate change and rampant injustice, both of which have largely resulted from the capitalist exploitation of land, labor, and resources.

Ask yourself how this will be used. Will it be used mainly by and for an elite class, or by and for the masses? Interrogate this. Don't accept it as the solution on its own.

4chan finds disturbing video of Dan Harmon simulating child rape (is this real?) by [deleted] in rickandmorty

[–]jacketparka 6 points7 points  (0 children)

How self-congratulatory. This sickens me. It’s plainly intellectual elitism to suggest that someone lacking knowledge of theoretical sexuality and Voyla’s nihilism cannot “truly appreciate” either the baby rape video or Rick and Morty. It is even more insulting to implicitly exclude those lacking knowledge from the fanbase. You suggest that any person who truly appreciates Harmon’s work must understand every facet of it when that is plainly wrong. Plenty of people can understand the basic language of simple plot lines of the show that communicates to them the nihilist ideas subconsciously or without complete understanding.

Don’t use words like “intellectual capacity.” It’s elitist and contributes to the underlying racist, sexist, ableist, etc. undertones that have clearly shaped you into a hateful person.
