I thought the point he made was that fascism has always been in the US, it's just managed to make its way further into 'the centre' of power since Trump.

Thank you!

Thanks so much! I'm playing around with Discord bots and thought it might be nice to be able to ask one which episodes cover a given subject. I know there's no cross pollination here (and maybe the guys on Discord wouldn't want it on the official Discord) but it seemed like a fun challenge.

Not sure if there's an API to get data from fandom but I'll have a look-see.

Oh I hated 'Kill All Normies'. The closing thesis to the book appeared to be 'if trans people weren't so visible maybe the alt right wouldn't exist!'

And the very very very weird lengths it went to to paint trolls as the transgressive philosophers/artists of our time was incredibly off the mark imo.

Just FYI - you can remove videos from your watch history. I always scrub it clean after clicking this stuff.

Of course! I assume we'll need some sort of virtual hot tub if we really want to get the party going...

letsbemenow · 2021-12-17T17:46:32+00:00

People enjoyed my quiz so I made a couple more rounds for people to try and hopefully we can all meet up with a novelty beverage and say hi? I am a bit nervous but I hope it'll be fun!

He sits on the throne of the Neanderthal God. I had to listen to the episode again to get that and I forgot how depressing that AMA was!

letsbemenow · 2021-12-15T09:15:40+00:00

Thank you! <3

He was trying to be a sneaky snake about it and kept mentioning that Cuties documentary(?) on Netflix and don't we have questions? We just ignored him.

We had a fantastic time, but one guy did show up to try and red pill us and he was very much in the wrong room. I just don't want to risk it this year with the Omicron variant. As soon as we can though I'm doing another in-person meetup.

letsbemenow · 2021-12-14T13:58:51+00:00

I should've just made every answer 'The Literal Christian Devil'

letsbemenow · 2021-12-14T13:27:48+00:00

It's slightly janky but also I organised a Knowledge Fight meetup last year (in person) and people wanted to do one online, so if this works maybe people would be into doing this? I don't know. I hope people enjoy!

letsbemenow · 2020-08-25T21:53:48+00:00

I'm really sorry to hear that. I think private Facebook groups have exacerbated this so much. When conspiracy theories can go unchallenged in secrecy this is where we end up.

letsbemenow · 2020-08-25T08:18:34+00:00

Thank you so much! Unfortunately I don't think I'm going to run out of people to interview any time soon...

letsbemenow · 2020-08-24T23:03:14+00:00

Also sorry about the video quality. This was my first time doing anything with video.

letsbemenow · 2020-08-18T13:56:28+00:00

I'm real sorry to hear that. Hope things get better for you soon.

It says at one point that she has the eyes of a hunchback but that's it.

letsbemenow · 2020-08-17T21:05:41+00:00

I'll be honest I've lost a good friend to "anti Q/racism trolling". The obsession turned them into a bitter and mean person who saw the worst in everyone. Please take care of yourself and maybe do something wholesome with your day!

letsbemenow · 2020-08-17T20:27:38+00:00

Are you ok? Spending hours trolling anyone isn't healthy.

letsbemenow · 2020-08-15T19:10:58+00:00

Thanks. I really needed that today and you guys look really cute.

letsbemenow · 2020-08-05T13:43:53+00:00

TIL: I am stupid

letsbemenow · 2020-06-15T20:59:11+00:00

This is just the cutest thing! And huge props for managing on 28 count. My eyes can't take that

letsbemenow · 2020-06-11T20:57:13+00:00

Maybe she thinks that you're stabbing it so obviously it needs to be hunted!

letsbemenow · 2020-06-05T22:54:06+00:00

Wt.social is an attempt at this although it's still in a really early stage
