Some people probably know them in real life. Like, you might have a friend who’s like “Yeah this [slur] wouldn’t update her mod so i posted [hateful thing] on her insta”. You could talk to them. People listen to their in-group more than randoms online.
But then again, the worst sort of people probably mostly have the worst sort of friends, and reinforce their bad behavior.

“I will not trust any vaccine made by a capitalist” sounds like a satire of a left wing person. I can’t tell if you were making a joke or really hold an absurd position.
I see poe’s law is alive and well.
“would you rather have nothing to eat, or poison?”
If you eat nothing, maybe you can figure out a better solution with your remaining time. If you eat poison, you’re probably going to be too sick (or dead) to improve things.
Trump is poison.
Also Biden did improve some things, so it’s less “nothing” and more “some crackers”. Sure, a full meal would be better.
t’s not stupidity, it was a clear option between something the American people know does not work, and something that might work.
There is no reasonable expectation that Trump would “work” for anyone outside of some very wealthy and grifters. So, yes, voting for Trump is stupid.
Accelerationists can fuck off.
Satire is dead. Unfortunately, this guy somehow survives despite his best efforts to get sick.
They could make the psn account optional, and most people wouldn’t care. Make it easy to click “No thanks” once and be done. Some people would voluntarily do it because they like seeing their own stats in one place.
They could generate a unique ID for a given install and send metrics home when there’s a connection but no psn account, and most people wouldn’t even notice.
I think most of the consumer anger is coming from getting a worse experience for no gains. It makes the corporation seem unreasonable.
I’m told they did this to force people to use it wirelessly so they’d be impressed by it. Like for brand protection. No proof so could be made up
Republican women can’t help but notice that their partisan identity conflicts with their self-image as strong and competent women. “I started to learn what misogyny was, and I started to learn what patriarchy was,”
Better late than never.
It is completely insane and regressive. Poor people who need the money to live should be spared the tax, and rich people who aren’t going to miss it should pay.
Trump has repeatedly accused his Democratic opponent of lying about working at McDonald’s, in large part because the job wasn’t listed on her later resume for a legal job.
This man doesn’t know how resumes or jobs work.
Sure, if you stop externalizing all the costs that let them afford it.
Lots of people never reach more advanced stages of moral reasoning. They don’t do bad things to avoid being punished, or maybe because they have a simple understanding of “it’s against the rules”
The current justice and prison system is abhorrent, but something needs to happen if someone tries to murder someone else. Most people are alright but there are a lot of anti social people out there, too. And a lot of people who would be alright if they were in more stable circumstances
Nationalize spacex.
Our supreme court is already showing us that laws and precedent don’t mean anything anymore. Might as well use the chaos for some good.
This guy could eat a baby live on TV and too many folks would be like “Any talk of using force is inappropriate. We have to engage him in the marketplace of ideas. You can’t just physically stop him from doing things. You can’t just take his property. Inappropriate!”
I really hope he meets an embarrassing end, and soon.
They don’t care about truth, or consistency. They care about power. Specifically, the power of their in-group.
Conservatism has been aptly summarized as “There must be in-groups for the law to protect but not bind, and out-groups for the law to bind but not protect.” That’s pretty much the whole thing. Conservatives are, in a kind of fundamental way, bad people. They value the in-group far too much.
Do you think swing voters might in fact be fucking morons? I’m so tired of the fate the world resting in the hands of low information people who seemingly command the memory and political acumen of the proverbial goldfish.
The rich suck. They already have a lot of money. They could pay taxes, and still have a lot of money. And then maybe they’d have a functioning government they’d benefit from, too.
Ms. Jager has simply always thought of herself as a Republican, and she’s not prepared to stop thinking of herself that way
They value group identity and membership more than they should. Honestly as far as I’m concerned that’s a form of stupid and moral failing. I bet a lot of them are also the kind who would say “if your friends all jumped off a bridge, would you jump too?”
Mergers and acquisitions should be a lot harder than they are. Maybe even prohibited in nearly all cases.
