I agree on the problems that women in general have (although that's the fault of our predecessors conceding too much) and Imp may be a teensy bit right on the state of White women and the power government gives them, but it's not anything beyond what we already know and need to combat.
It's been repeated many, many times about what he's trying to distract from. He's been acting like a lightning rod for jewish criticism for a long time (not just him, mind you, but he's the most vocal). He has been banned so many times, even though the most recent one was 96 days, and he immediately comes back worse than before. At this point, he's pretty much acting as an agent to undermine and derail this forum, even if he's not working for anyone.
Add: What's more concerning is how the ban just keeps getting doubled in length instead of kicking him out, when clearly he's abusing his free speech.
I'm not really a fence sitter, I just look at things as other people do on an individual basis and I hate the tribal bullshit that infests groups like I'm seeing a bit now.
Fence-sitter probably wasn't the right choice of words. I probably could have jokingly said "ascended" though it comes off as a bit... arrogant. I don't like the tribalism either, but it's bound to happen as the poles get more extreme and as we approach election season.
I can't tell you how to act on the Internet but please calm yourself and don't let the fluff preoccupy you. Updoots don't matter in the grand scheme. One day the forum will be gone or the Internet will, and that will be lost to aether. Going off like a sperg about disagreement doesn't help, as we've seen with the atheists sperging about Bible quote threads. It's run the risk of devolving into an Imp-style crusader and eventually becoming hated by mostly everyone here.
There's plenty of users here that are zero tolerance retards on certain subjects, even if a lot claim to not care about what others post if it isn't breaking the rules. It's a natural consequence of isolation from normies. We don't have to deal with too much of the bad ideologies being thrown in our face, but we still have to gatekeep from the poison too. From a political perspective, playing what looks like a Tim Pool fencesitter doesn't work given Beanie Man's track record. It hurts that many different people of different political persuasions get thrown in the Gamergate pit, which has evolved into more of a Free Speech/Culture War group. But there's those that have been in it longer, to the point that beliefs harden and there is no compromising with anyone. To be honest, hardening into more extreme views is going to happen naturally as civilization starts splitting apart or collapsing, as it's not easy to overcome the instinct of survival.
Being outside of the political spectrum is fine, as every critical thinking human being should, but the average polarized person can't make that distinction and will assume you're automatically siding with the other side. We all come across it, and there's not much that can be done, by the very nature of Internet posting lacking discussion context and body language. You seem to have good points on occasion, and sometimes bad ones. Just please do not take it personally when people disagree with you in a manner absent of logical fallacies, that is usual debate, argument, or discussion. Use your time wisely.
clogging up the forum with rubbish posts
I almost always skip over these posts Alfredic does, but I find this funny considering this forum averages at 20~25 article posts in 24 hours and about half of them are usually uninteresting. That's not hard to sift through.
From personal experience, I notice retardation increases in the winter season. Maybe the cold weather where I live fucks with people's heads, but it's noticeable.
One good example is through commuting to work. There's nary a snowflake on the ground, but god people seem to have their brains shut off, can't stay in their lanes, or they think they're driving in snow. Granted, there are retards on the road year round, but it feels like it increases in winter.
There's a LOT of victims caught up in the trans indoctrination machine
That's one of the more touchier issues with this subject. It's very easy to look at the troons and start up woodchippers, but quite a number are people that bought into it through peer pressure or social engineering. Single out the predators and the ones spreading it.
So similar manipulations like what Pfizer did with the Coof jab?
Except instead of halting any further trials with pregnant women, the HPV study just blatantly claimed the opposite of what the data demonstrated?
Disney execs got their grubby little paws on a boatload of IPs with that Fox acquisition. It's obscene.
I don't know how much Disney owns at this point.
I assume the knuckledragger is going by old Internet logic/joke of assuming all users on the Internet are male. It's a piss-poor attempt at a sarcastic rebuttal.
So this is happening on top of the garbage UI changes?
Lol... Lmao even
Although Google is evil, this is no different than Muslims infiltrating through Freedom of Religion. Even though there are tenats and "virtues" within their "religion" that are antithetical to the Constitution, they practice freely and grow their numbers in their enclaves, until they get uppity and judge has to shut them down.
China (like Israel and a few others) doesn't let any outside company operate within, unless it's through a Chinese group (meaning state-sanctioned, and the CCP profits). They are arguably a Fascist nation at worst, protectionist at best. While this going on, they promote the opposite to the rest of the world, crying freedom of choice against Google and other tech companies, or freedom of access against the federal government with TikTok. Yeah, it's not the government's place to restrict what people want to do or want to buy within reason, and they should be shutting down monopolies. But, it's obvious the Chinese screech like this because they want their foot in the door to subvert Western nations while bolstering themselves
Google has been undermining tech for years. However, the Chinese have been just as much of a threat
These points (except maybe work-life balance) all come back to the intentional failures of fractional reserve banking and inflation, which siphons future wealth and forces debt on the population. There isn't enough capital for the average person to fulfill their biological urges because of low purchasing power and high-costs, so they can't have progeny.
Governments are told to solve the problem by just replacing the native population.
He's going full ADL
Never go full ADL
I get the feeling either it's his autism or he's been becoming more Trump-ish. Either he's an unfocused mess just flitting about and changing his mind, or he knows many people hate him, so why not go for a trolling while keeping his hands clean.
Why should it be a polled decision, Elon?
Free speech isn't decided upon by the mob. It's an unalienable right endowed by our Creator, remember?
Twitter has always had its problems. Even if Musk has made some improvements, he likes to play childish games as well.
Physical books or piracy or bust
Shueisha / Young Jump
Jump Comics (e.g. Shonen Jump)? Even more a reason. Their Japanese tankobon for shonen-level reading are fucking dirt cheap if you go through a vendor. The Jump app is wholly unnecessary. Unless you absolutely need to read the latest chapter, then piracy/scanlations is/are your friend
(I know the Japanese don't have much space to hoard books, but manga books really are cheaper and quite small compared to Western localizations. Second-hand markets exist over there too)
...or even a fifteen year old, but you'd think they were and[sic] adult with how they were drawn...

Back in 2022
Is this technically old news, and people just noticed it?
They'll continue to go after drawings while whore benefactors like OF, etc. will remain intact. The elites still need the plebs to not reproduce (until they need more slaves if AI doesn't take off)
I was interpreting it based on the words in the quote that Ahaus dropped in relation to the thread.
"hath neither child nor brother" -> the man is all alone
"no end of all his labour" -> he keeps working regardless
"neither is his eye satisfied with riches; neither saith he..." -> he's not happy with what he gains through labour, nor does he reflect on why he works
"This is also vanity" -> word with two very different meanings. If it really was supposed to be the other definition, "worthless, pointless", then I could understand. The idea that working / producing while still not pleased and not using the fruits could be a worthless endeavor, which makes sense in the context of Scrooge. I could also see the problems of laboring without a higher purpose or goal, but... I don't know what they should be doing if they're alone and stuck working. If it's by volition, yes it's pointless and a problem.
Gobseck is definitely a better depiction of the consequences of hoarding.
So the wisdom is, it is vain to work and be fine just working? If he's not satisfied with riches, then how is someone a miser, right? Usually people are greedy and hoard because they want the riches. Although, if they're in misery, then it does fit the arachaic definition of "miser".
Ecclesiastes
Oh wait it's Old Testament, makes sense, nevermind
4chan green text predicted the future...
Or the Dew Marketing team saw the green text and thought "Sayyyyyy... That's a mighty fine idea"
Capitalism has been dead on the macro level for years. Not sure what they're trying to save. Globohomo Corporatism?
It's "interim", but too obvious of a mask-off. They have the positional power now, Garber will squash any and all criticism of jews and make policy changes, then he'll move out of the position.
