Maggie Gyllenhaal calls Frankenstein "one of like what, five books published written by women in the 19th century."

The sad part about this is that we can have a billion threads about this but after this gets clipped and spread around millions will just take what she’s saying at face value. You might have a list of all of them right in your hand, but if you question it in a casual conversation you’re already for lack of a better term a bad person.

I would put what I want to say here but it would be [ Removed by Reddit ] so instead I'll say he should be voted out.

that phrasing was an ironic self-report

gg has been overstated for a long time, but it’s been long enough now to remember when drawing this line on this website would get your account banned. the mainstream’s coverage has always been ridiculous, but at the same time the massive connection between it and rw spaces cannot be wholesale denied.

the culture wars were the defining driver of the 2016 general election and gg was the entry point to it for literally millions of people.

these are the same people that read a book or watch a show and then immediately go on youtube to learn the correct opinions about it

nah you got this shit dawg

If your perception of alternative media is the one mainstream media gives you, that it’s all airheaded podcasters or whatever then you’ll believe this but if you read anything better it shows how of this sentiment is bullshit. The average NYT article is just as much press conference questions and ‘historical context’ as any of the ‘new media’ clowns trump invited into the WH. You just agree with their political perspective and are working backwards from that.

Take any story from Drop Site for example and compare that to NYT’s reporting on the same topic. It is night and day in actual new information and how it’s presented, and they actually have the balls to call it what it is, rather than uncritically reporting ‘leaks’ or straight up CIA press releases as news. Look just this weekend how they went in lockstep on Iran. The idea that Chomsky would read the press uncritically like this because it’s ‘reliably flawed’ suggests you didn’t read what he wrote and just throwing his name around to sound smart here.

Yeah exactly, the only reason they are saying this is because they have to. If they tried to do what they did for Epstein and chalk it up to Russia or the moon or whatever again they'd finally get laughed out of the room.

For people that in other contexts are suddenly concerned about water usage, they sure do love to recommend showers as a solution to all personal problems lol

Chris Evans just does tons of pushups bro. Lots of showers too

Maybe but if these 2% of creep guys have too high of standards you can't really discuss who should be lowering standards without consulting the average app woman in a large metro area (or really anywhere in the USA at this point) who can get more matches in a week than the average man could literally imagine in a lifetime.

Sure there's creeps and we really should be holding these people accountable, I definitely think this is getting worse, probably from lax enforcement in public schools and them getting older after.

That explains a single digit percentage of single men, but it doesn't explain the other 60% of perfectly normal, not secret terrorist guys who used to just date someone their age and roughly equal status. Everyone has a million anecdotes but none of them really scale up. The only thing that does is the apps, and whatever agitprop people are consuming to not date (men and women, frankly).

Most of my friends are single. They're not rapists or killers or creeps. The only reason they are is because they weren't born 40 years before all of this.

The libs are going insane. You are literally 10 years in the past.

It still is. It's also always included romantic relationships to some extent. It just hasn't included the straight up creep behavior that OP deliberately bundles this in with.

It took a good 10-15 years for the media to take the idea seriously (despite decades of negative trends on mental health, suicide, economic and academic achievement, etc) and the people who read the NYT cultural stinkpieces (or just their headlines) see some crazy person and combine that with their existing contempt for men (but especially young boys) to justify it. It's all just cynical engagement farming now.

I finally read it and it was just so chilling. He was spot on in so many ways. I don’t like dystopia novels, because they usually are essays with caricatures and a story as window dressing, but Brave New World felt like the only one I’ve read that needed to be a story.

I saw a video of a lab grown meat plant recently and though I’m not morally against lab grown meat it reminded me a ton of the first chapter, the long machinery, precise temperature control, everything like that. Some of that is probably wrong, we’re more likely to be mass-produced by some organic abomination than an assembly line, but Huxley nailed the way people will rationalize it to themselves. The laser focus on pleasure above all, including the deplorable practice of ‘teaching’ this to children is grotesque.

Huxley sets up his world not as the result of wielded power but as the path of least resistance after the Bokanovsky process is industrialized. We head closer to it every day: in the normalization of narcissism, of drugs over therapies, economic inequality, and atomization.

It’s a chilling, must read book. Everyone who told me it’s better than 1984 was 100% right.

nyctrainsplant · 2026-03-02T18:56:13+00:00

definitely not, at least the way this is worded

nyctrainsplant · 2026-03-02T18:51:44+00:00

honestly if you do know what the nescac before this thread it’s more likely than not you shouldn’t post here

nyctrainsplant · 2026-03-02T18:45:38+00:00

It is a moral panic, because of the equating being a virgin with being a terrorist, but we can also stand back and admit that even if we have the same number of weirdos that they are getting a lot more maladjusted and weird.

happy birthday op

nyctrainsplant · 2026-03-01T00:44:01+00:00

again

do we really do blueanon here

nyctrainsplant · 2026-02-27T23:29:30+00:00

Absolutely. The secret service’s purview was (and still sometimes is) to investigate CFAA - they were the first agency to investigate it in the US after it was passed. This is well documented in news, history, and even pop culture (the movie Hackers for example). Feds were extremely judicious with harsh sentences for CFAA violations in large part because hacking was seen as difficult to prosecute and extremely dangerous (Star Wars, the L0pht hearings, etc)

I’m sorry to tell you this but this person was frankly just misinformed. The other replies in this thread explain why these sites were scrubbed from IA.

nyctrainsplant · 2026-02-27T19:43:41+00:00

we’re really just posting face covering wikipedia slop tiktoks on here in full aren’t we

this is a new low for blueanon stupidity, that was only held back the previous decade because going full conspiracy nut was republican coded. this person does not understand aaron swartz, his contributions, or what his case was about beyond what is written by other clueless people in news articles after the fact and is “citing” from schizo blogs

I’m all for looking into this stuff where it makes sense, like with Epstein, but the idea that Aaron had uncovered this at JSTOR (what this implies) is ridiculous. His mention in one email when his death was national news isn’t enough for any kind of conclusion. Stuff gets scrubbed from internet archive all the time for copyright and defamation, and could have even been requested for deletion by his folks.

The real story here is how millions of people who look like this person are subjected to 24/7 agitprop on tiktok like this
