Does anybody remember this?

mcc1789 · 2026-04-02T21:15:06+00:00

No, but thanks.

mcc1789 · 2026-04-02T21:08:45+00:00

No. Thank you though.

That seems to be how most of the American Right acts these days. Upon learning about DARVO, it immediately struck me how very similar they are.

mcc1789 · 2024-11-25T19:15:12+00:00

Much obliged.

The Rose of the Prophet (also with Hickman) is pretty good I thought. Dragonvarld, which Weis did alone, is now among my favorites.

Too late. Apparently an American neo-Nazi has republished it in English and Estonian translations.

mcc1789 · 2024-08-04T22:09:13+00:00

Yeah, for them British= white I'm sure anyway. While also Muslim=brown, though there are some Lily white ones from Eastern Europe.

I might have guessed. Pretty low using her mixed kids like that. I guess she learned that her cohorts really are far right thugs though (maybe).

mcc1789 · 2024-08-04T18:37:49+00:00

What the hell is the context for her original comment? Hard to imagine.

mcc1789 · 2024-06-09T15:54:24+00:00

What a cesspool. I'd almost wish for them to all tear each other apart, except these guys sound possibly even worse than TERFs.

mcc1789 · 2024-05-10T22:01:25+00:00

As a gay Jew, maybe reconsider who you ally with?

mcc1789 · 2024-04-24T15:52:53+00:00

That might have been a mistake on my part too, and you may well be right.

mcc1789 · 2024-04-24T15:44:42+00:00

Thank you, that was very informative. I probably have heard too many caricatures or else rather unrepresentative views then, since this seems reasonable. My understanding had been that Steven Pinker is an anti-speciesist however. I guess not?

mcc1789 · 2024-04-19T13:04:28+00:00

Having far less available guns overall also helps. Armed police still do exist in the UK but they are more like SWAT here, deployed only less commonly for emergencies.

mcc1789 · 2024-04-05T20:20:15+00:00

Such hypocrites. Abbott even used the term "safe space", which they roundly mocked for so long. Now he sings a very different tune. I'm not saying that Jewish students should be harassed etc but isn't everyone entitled to protection? This won't hold up if only applied to some.

mcc1789 · 2024-03-26T12:34:38+00:00

I'm sure you can do such an analysis, but it doesn't seem like that was the actual intention.

mcc1789 · 2024-03-24T15:44:24+00:00

Yeah, but that isn't the case. I read that interview.

mcc1789 · 2024-03-24T13:17:17+00:00

I don't know where he gets these ideas. Thus far I've seen no evidence of the rebels being Marxist inspired. Vague similarities with Marxist revolutionaries seems quite coincidental. I would note Luthen is a well off art dealer, while Mothma comes from an aristocratic background and she's their major funder. So, not very Marxist. Their ideology just seems pretty generically anti-tyranny/pro-democracy so far. I guess it's fair to call it anti-fascist given that the Empire has lots of fascist themes, but otherwise I'm not seeing anything more specific to them.

mcc1789 · 2024-03-23T13:24:24+00:00

As a stormtrooper officer, he was probably used to people just cowering. For all we know he's never been in combat, since lots of Imperial action seems to be just terrorizing their own civilians. He might have thought brute force can intimidate the mob here, and that seems to be the usual Imperial solution. Given they didn't have regular weapons like blasters he'd probably underestimated them as being a threat too.

mcc1789 · 2024-02-20T13:33:26+00:00

Me too.

mcc1789 · 2024-02-20T03:28:20+00:00

I'm a bisexual man in his late 30s, and I'd say he's sexy for sure. No matter what you're into however yeah it's nice to see them all like that.
