- Comment on The red pill - Men's rights documentary 5 days ago:
That movie is a lot older than the reupload suggests (reupload says 2022, actual year the video was release was 2016). This was during the time the left was the most reactionary that I know of (I was also a reactionary left-leaning person at the time). I used to see this type of thing as based and the correct answer, but after CHAZ failed, Trump’s second win and just talking to some right-leaning people, I started to question this type of thinking (black people can’t be racist, constant schadenfreude and smugness of opponents instead of understanding and nuance, anger is good, denounce people who are less radical then me, every leftist is good and every rightwinger is bad, etc).
Social media was also seen back then by most millennials as a universal good and not a manipulation machine. Now a lot of these ideas are now seen as psyops by a lot of the left now. Just seeing the ICE Portland protest with the silly costumes felt more effective optically than most of the 2010’s protests. It’s really easy to beileve “AnTiFa ArE ThE ReAl FaScIsTs…” when the colors are red & black and look and act scary and menacing. Protests are a lot smarter these days and I am glad for it.
I am of course still a leftist. Just a more understanding and careful one (and also jaded). I’m glad Big Joel exists to combat a lot of this reactionary-type thinking.

- Comment on Anon has beef with Nickelodeon 2 weeks ago:
It’s cause Viacom does not want you to know about how good Norman Lear sitcoms were (All in the Family, The Jeffersons, Maude, Good Times, Sandford and Son, etc.). Going from those to whatever the 80’s had on really makes you think that Regan ruined everything.

- Comment on Anon experiences a glitch 2 weeks ago:
Fake: Anon has no grandma
Gay: Anon’s brother hypnotized him the other night, and installed a sleep trigger while removing any memory of being hypnotized. Then, when Anon lays in bed looking at his brother, he then triggers the sleep command, and then Anon passes out instantly. Then his bother molests Anon in his sleep. Then Anon wakes up, thinking it was all at an instant. - Comment on Anon's mom has questions 3 weeks ago:

Really sad to find that out about Anti-Flag. They had such an asexual energy about them that I could relate to. Also they stopped me from becoming a fascist at one of my darkest moments.
