how do you expect the newest brand of anarco-fuckwads to be counterculture?
*not* take the style of every angry mob in the last 40 years?
come on man
well for starters, they would need to be counterculture
the idea of counterculture is weird
like
when being counterculture somehow becomes the culture
then what
it's like when being a hipster became popular
they are not counterculture
it's become its own antithesis
which was the point of my statement
so weird
they are not the counter culture, they are the dominant culture
I don't have the right words here, cauese sometimes I need time to find them, but like
its like a group of mavericks
a fair chunk of these protests are protesting threats that
A) They created
B) don't exist
you can't have such a thing
would false flag be a good term?
pointless would be a good term
was listening to a discussion podcast yesterday
two guys reacted to an article telling the left to be more polite with opposing viewpoints and it was kinda cancery to hear them both
one guy was on about how he's from trump territory and as *an gay* he's against this fascist whtie supremacest hurdur
and the other was also *an gay* who teaches his male students that they're part of the oppressive system
it was a real shenanigan
"It's hard to light a candle, easy to curse the dark instead,
This moment the dawn of humanity,
The last ride of the day"
good podcast overall, though. the idea of the cast is to get two people in an argument (or sometimes, the host vs one of his haters) and talk it out
it's called Conversations with people who Hate me
it's like... bringing the comment section to an actual verbal discussion
and how doing that magically seems to make everyone less of a reactionary fuckwad
`Imagine My Shock`
lmao
the host's a bit irritating sometimes though
he's a flamboyant *le gay* voice actor and activist
its almost like, when you treat people as people, they react like people!
but he's super good at getting to the meat of each participant's issues
actually, turns out he did a ted talk about what he does
He's also a voice actor in the podcast Welcome to night Vale
he's a bit of an annoying LGBT-leftie "look at my activism go" guy but he's got heart
