the issue is thye only have the observations of those who they like to engage with (not nessicarily people with their political opinion)

So, blow up Facebook. Hold on, let me start up fight club and put on my guy fawks mask

nah, no need for that extreme

But I could claim it for the name of Islam and watch everything really go to shit

still blows my mind that politicians bow down to loud people on twitter

at some point, everyone on social media will be so divided into small groups that fully agree, that they realise they have 0 impact cuz they're too divided, and they'll start forming bigger "we agree on some issues" again

until it boils down into a bigger group of yelling

forming groups to advocate for something is completely fine

The natural flow of things

you need to do that to get messages across to the powerful

otherwise it would just be noise

they die, some new problem emerges, many agree, the point gets across, repeat

the cycle is getting shorter and shorter (especially for the left)

and more extreme

THE CYCLE

the liberalists

Menstrual?

Pendulum of memes

well what will happen is it will culminate into 2 big groups, the biggest wanting to remain big so they work on containing the smaller group

which will cause people to split off to join the other group

and then they are in charge and remember the bad containing so they decide to break it free again so everyone can have their say

just like conservative right 50 years ago turning to the bigger left now, and slowly people see its bad and they want freedom again (like voting Trump etc)

it will sort itself out in due time

memes are just a catalyst

shows how stupid authority figures are for getting upset over them, weakening their status towards the internet folk

but bed time for me, it was fun discussing and arguing, disagreeing and agreeing, we should do it again sometime

cheerios

memes are a catalyst for our political direction, culture clashes, etc

thats pretty amazing and fucking scary all at once

So, you're saying that memes move politics? <:Kappa:327142715592540171>

memes condense an entire idea into a quickly consumable artifact

simply a modern extension of "a picture is worth a thousand words"

Yeah.

WHAT THE FUCK

I guess they consider dying a cure for autism?

Which is sad considering autism isn’t a disease, you can’t cure it.

We can't cure it with the tech available to us right now, but we might be able to in the future.

I think it will eventually be treatable.

There’s nothing to cure though. Autism isn’t a sickness, it’s a disorder that effects state of mind.

As someone that has autism: no, fuck you. It absolutely is a disease (disorder is a subset there of) and there absolutely is something to cure.

Sure in the future you might be able to temporarily readjust their state of mind, but the default will always be the same

It is a neurological development disorder.
