Ha, yeah, definitely not right wing. Pretty much the opposite.

He’s an evolutionary biologist. Here: Forrest Valkai YouTube.
He has many great videos on science and is really good at making science accessible. He’s also a very kind and empathetic human being.

The UX of this makes me want to take it behind the barn and shoot it. Aside from all the technical failure, I get the feeling this is the project they’ve been putting their employees in for punishment for their transgressions.

- Comment on I am a solo developer creating a horror game where you can pet your cat to restore sanity! Here is the new trailer for The 18th Attic! Let me know your feedback :) 3 weeks ago:
Looks awesome. I love the cat mechanic, does the cat react to things? Animals reacting to things adds a level of creepiness, imo.
The overall ambiance looks good. Is this an escape room type thing? I’d love to check it out.
- Comment on Not to get all religiony but why in the old testament God was all fire and brimstone and fatal consequences? But the new testament God is all about forgiveness and such?? 3 weeks ago:
God is not about forgiveness and such in the New Testament. That’s a retcon by later Christians to make it more palatable.
He preached violence:
Matthew 10:34: Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.
He was just as happy to send people to hell:
Matthew 13:41-42: The Son of man shall send forth his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all things that offend, and them which do iniquity; And shall cast them into a furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth.
Every single horrible decree in the Old Testament still applies in the new (despite modern Christians trying to redefine what ‘fulfil’ means):
Matthew 5:17-18: Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil. For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.
That’s last one includes all the slavery, rape, genocide, etc. Jesus could have spoken out against those things, but instead he said all those judgements were just and should be continued.
Matthew 10:21: And the brother shall deliver up the brother to death, and the father the child: and the children shall rise up against their parents, and cause them to be put to death.
Pretty violent, and not very loving.
And let’s not forget the revelations, in which Jesus will doom billions of people to a horrific existence followed by eternal hellfire, not for doing wrong things, but merely for not being devoted to him. Even the devout and righteous of other religions, and even babies who haven’t had the chance to sin.
Remember, Jesus is the same god as in the Old Testament – if god is eternal and unchanging (which the Bible says he is), he is literally the same entity who committed atrocities before he decided to wear human skin and sacrifice himself to himself.
This is not a loving god.

And that was young, fashionable people whinging about having to memorise things that were written down.
- Comment on oui oui 3 weeks ago:
Violence baguettes violence.
- Comment on 1919 (correctly) 3 weeks ago:
Reminder that Socrates was said to have hated books because they corrupted the youth, weakening students’ faculties by removing the need to memorise information.
Every single generation since records have existed thought the new tech was ruining us.
Now get off my fucking lawn.

Yeah, we can see that’s what you’re in. Thanks for acknowledging it.
- Comment on Charlie Kirk in his own words. 3 weeks ago:
The word ‘pussy’ as a pejorative predates its use as a slang for female genitalia. It actually originates from ‘pussycat’, as comparing a man to a jumpy and easily scared feline.
Man, you’re all over this thread not knowing what words mean.
It’s not misogynistic, but this one is:
Stop being a cunt. (And I say that as a woman.)

Being Jewish isn’t a shield against being ignorant, ffs.
- Comment on Charlie Kirk in his own words. 3 weeks ago:
Nobody is making assumptions here but you.
Your comments have been very clear.
If you’re actually Jewish, you should be far more careful with the word ‘fascist’, and you should learn about history before throwing that word around. Fascism is happening now, so being judicial with that word is more important than ever.
- Comment on Charlie Kirk in his own words. 3 weeks ago:
I’ll remind you of your comment that sparked this subthread.
I said Kirk was a fascist, and you said: ‘Hilarious how the people saying he was a fascist are themselves the fascists’.
Anyone with a brain would easily see you’re saying I am actually the fascist. Would you like to try again?
I’d love to have a conversation with you about this, but we both need to be honest.
- Comment on Charlie Kirk in his own words. 3 weeks ago:
So you agree that fascism is far-right, authoritarian, and ultra-nationalist, you’re inly haggling that it’s ‘by force’.
Can you give me any citations that say fascism is only fascism once it uses force?
I am not throwing around that term, I assure you, and it seems so far that you don’t actually understand what that word means.
It’s a political ideology, nearly the opposite of socialism.
So, again, can you explain why you said my comment was fascist? By your definition, I did not use force. What about my comment, or my ideology that you seemed to get from it, was fascist?
- Comment on Charlie Kirk in his own words. 3 weeks ago:
Okay, thanks.
But a fascist by definition (not our own personal meaning, but the actual meaning) is:
‘a far-right, authoritarian, and ultranationalist political ideology and movement’
and that’s how I was using it. By that definition, which is the standard definition, Charlie Kirk was a fascist. He would have agreed with all of those things: he was far-right, authoritarian, and ultra-nationalist.
So, I am using the actual definition, where you are using your own personal definition.
Now, can you explain how I am a fascist?
- Comment on Charlie Kirk in his own words. 3 weeks ago:
Okay, let’s talk. Can you define ‘fascist’ for me?
What is fascism?

I’m not ‘lumping all Americans’.

- Comment on Charlie Kirk in his own words. 3 weeks ago:
I will not celebrate his death, but I can’t muster up any sympathy for the fact he can’t spread this disgusting, hate-filled vitriol anymore.
If you think he was anything but a net negative to society, corrupting young minds and fostering vile ideologies, you can kindly go fuck yourself.
I am not happy he was killed, but I will not mourn a virulent fascist.

Aye, Charlie, you were dealing with MAGATs, vermin, and swine, but enough about your followers.
