autism tests are so funny. I'm extremely literal most of the time, but people don't tell me that generally, so I'm inclined to answer disagree. because I'm taking the statement too literally
^not my post but same sentiment
I love my people, and seeing people with visceral hatred for the Jewish people use Jewish lineage as a shield from criticism as they actively work to build hate for Jews, is about the most disgusting behaviour I see.
Actually, I'm going to make this shareable. Not tiptoeing around people who make it their very obvious business to accelerate Antisemitic hatreds and calling it out for what it is is Letoāeles... in the public good.
I'll add on to this the reminder that Jewish Voice For Peace represents the Jewish community in the same way that Autism Speaks represents the Autistic Community.
Both are hate groups masquerading as advocates, overwhelmingly operated by outsiders who have nothing but contempt for our survival.
On top of this, JVP routinely hold their gatherings in Christian churches, making them inaccessible for observant Jews... Which is bizarre behaviour when a mosque would 100% be accessible and in line with an at least superficial expression of inter-community bridge building re:I/P.
JVP also falsely promotes non-Jewish rituals created by the Neo-Pagan Kohenet movement as "queer inclusive" Jewish rituals. They continue to do this even today and are fully aware of the lie.
Fuck JVP, and fuck their affiliated persons.
The fact that JVP who are an Antisemitic hate group, managed to convince credulous Goyim and self hating Jews alike that they're a Jewish peace org... Really says something about the state of piss on the poor reading comprehension.
JVP take every opportunity to mock and bastardise Jewish culture and rituals, and have Goyim perform public stunts in the name of Jews with no Jews present. All while doing nothing of consequence to advance the peace project.
It's shocking that anyone can take them seriously.
The most disgusting part of this is that it erodes Jewās trust in each other. One of the biggest taboos used to be denying someoneās Jewishness just because of their politics. Itās something thatās almost unanimously rejected.
But people like jvp have forced us to actually scrutinise peopleās claims to Jewishness. On tumblr alone weāve seen several blogs who claimed to be Jewish and were outed as very much not Jewish (oftentimes using a distant ancestor as an excuse). Itās come to the sad situation that whenever I see an āas a Jewā Iām immediately suspicious, and more often than not my suspicion ends up being justified.
Exactly! Jvp is actively telling non Jews to pose as Jews online
If it looks like astroturf, walks like astroturf, talks like astroturf....
Occasionally forget people genuinely think capitalism is thousands of years old
One time I was talking about Robin Hood with some coworkers and one guy was like āhe was bad because the people he helped learned to expect handoutsā and I wanted to be like⦠okay can you explain how that flawed capitalist propaganda applies to feudalism
reminder that capitalism was literally invented in the 16th century
Thatās an exaggeration. What was invented in the 16th century was mercantilism. Capitalism really dates for the beginning of the nineteenth century, with the rise of industry and cash crops over artisans and merchants. Vulture capitalism, with the notion that companies have no duties other than generating profit, is even younger.
Capitalism is only 200 years old and I have to say, they have not been an impressive 200 years
I think a lot of this comes from the fact that most people donāt know the formal definition of capitalism. We all know the word, weāve all seen the jokes, but very few people bother to actually define it unless theyāre talking about political theory and philosophy, so itās easy to end up with the impression that Capitalism = Money Can Be Exchanged For Goods And Services.
Capitalism is the economic system where most of the means of production (i.e. everything people need to have to make the stuff that everyone wants) are owned by private individuals or corporations, who then hire people to provide the labor necessary to produce things, with the intent of selling the output at a profit. Itās the difference between āyouāre a carpenter and you make a chair and you sell itā and āyouāre Richard Q. Richington who owns a chair factory, and you pay people to sell the chairs you paid other people to make and then all the excess money goes back to you.ā There have been Richard Q. Richingtons on and off throughout history, but that being the norm for every single industry is a pretty recent development.

There have been literal race riots going on in parts of the UK over the last few days - violent, angry bigots firebombing homes and cars belonging to immigrants, refugees, and literally anyone with dark skin, with families having to flee under police protection.
This vile behaviour is being goaded on by far right agitators and parties like Reform UK and the media pretending like these nasty thuggish arseholes have ālegitimateā concerns rather than just being maladjusted, pathetic little cunts who canāt stand their own irrelevance.
I never want to see anyone pretend we donāt have a huge fucking racism problem ever again.
You know what I canāt stop thinking about? Refugees - people who have escaped some of the worst circumstances imaginable, hell on earth, some who have had to make extremely dangerous journeys to get here, believing that they would find safety, peace, a fresh start. Instead, this is what they find.
It makes me fucking sick.
And I'll see other posts on here about this and be nodding along, agreeing, until I get to the end and see unhingedly antisemitic sentences about "zionist baby killers" and I'm like, nope, you have lost me completely.
Trading one form of racism for another. Well done. Meanwhile, I'm here, in the middle, going "you're all fucking arseholes actually."
Speaking of riots and arson!
After Elon Musk and Tommy Robinson stoked anger over a horrific knife attack in Belfast, a youth group linked to a global neo-Nazi movement
Boom!
Told you the riot was an astroturf.
All thanks to Elon Musk, Rupert Lowe, Nigel Farage and Stephen Yaxley-Lennon telling them to do it.
And they blindly obeyed like stupid little slaves.
There is no puppet master to whom loyalism will not prostrate itself.
Sometimes people think they're dealing with a Torment Nexus but what they actually have is a Jumanji. And sometimes people think something's a Jumanji but oops it's a Torment Nexus.
Now. Sometimes you have a third thing- you'll have yourself a Willy Wonka's Chocolate Factory. And buddy, I can't help you there.
So a Torment Nexus is something that is either a metaphor for a larger societal problem (e.g. The Platform, The Long Walk) or a social issue/trend taken to an exaggerated extreme (e.g. The Purge), with a lot of shades of grey in between (e.g. Squid Game). If it isn't about a larger societal issue/trend/structure it isn't a Torment Nexus.
A Jumanji can be dangerous and high-stakes (to the characters), but it doesn't need to have a metaphor or lesson, it can easily just be a "Would this be fucked up or what?" situation (e.g. a lotta Goosebumps stories). If there IS a lesson/metaphor, it will be on a smaller scale like psychological issues (e.g. Magnus Archives), family/relationship issues (e.g. Zathura), or about a specific topic (e.g. Magic School Bus). Large-scale social issues may be present (after all, Everything Is Political), but they take a definite backseat.
Now. A Willy Wonka's Chocolate Factory is a trap based around morality and vices. These can be cultural, religious, or bonkers bullshit like "children shouldn't chew gum." There is generally not discussion or criticism of this morality system. Regardless of the morality system used, if it's not a trap, it's not a Chocolate Factory.
examples of a willy wonkas chocolate factory include:
saw
the cabin in the woods
labrynth (1986)
and
Amaury "Chocolate Guy" Guichon is undoubtedly an extremely skilled sculptor in chocolate but I think my favorite thing about a lot of his videos is the effort he puts into putting actual dessert food under the sculpture work
So many of his desserts & pastries have at least 5 layers of different textures & flavors. Fruit jams, caramel, cake, creams, mousse, cookies, meringue, crumb layers etc
That's what makes his work truly impressive to me, especially as someone who quickly got tired of the "knife that turns everything into cake" thing, where it was all basic chocolate cake buried under 13 layers of fondant
It takes amaury's work from an impressive stunt to "if I ate that, it would probably be the best thing I'd eat in my whole life"
meanwhile in the notes
It's honestly sad as hell how much Astartes NEED companions, like they're highly social creatures. They're like cows; they need a herd, they'll get depressed if you just stick one by itself in a field.
It makes them so vulnerable to manipulation.
In Unremembered Empire, John Grammaticus easily manipulates Narek, who is holding him prisoner, with "What if we were friends, don't you want a friend? Doesn't that sound nice?" and Nareks like "...ah fuck it does"
[Spoiler: it does not go well for Narek]
Or, hell, Abaddon is wildly successful in recruiting Astartes for the Black Legion because he knows just how many guys feel lost without a herd. That yearning for a battle-brother bond is so deeply hardwired into them, they'll jump to attention the second you offer it.
These poor guys.
I mean they're monsters, but still. Sad lil guys.

i thinkĀ āvideo games arenāt really the violent child-corrupting threat some parents worry they areā andĀ ācertain circles of gamer culture are incredibly toxic and can lead people down dangerous/hateful ideological rabbit holesā are ideas that can absolutely coexist
Artificial violence is not actually a corrupting influence but hanging out with assholes sure is.
the real corruption was the friends we made along the way

there have been countless oppressive regimes throughout history so it sure is interesting that the one people most love to compare israel to is the one that will be most painful for a jew to hear. but im sure thatās a coincidence
also this
The comparison is made because it is indeed very appalling that a small but loud selection of the survivors and their offspring are doing the thing that was done to them. What, do you think these people will feel any empathy if the Armenian or Rwandan or Bosnian genocides? If the comparison close to home doesn't convince them that genocide=bad, then I don't know what else to tell you about how cruel they are being.
Given that Israel airlifted Jews in Uganda and Ethiopia to safety, given that Israel has supported strong sanctions against countries committing genocide, and given that Israelis overwhelmingly support Ukraine and the Iranian people (who are facing genocide from their own government)... Yes, Israelis can very easily empathize with the victims of other genocides.
No one in Israel thinks genocide is a good thing. (Well. No one sane, I should say. The majority of people know better.)
Israel is not creating death camps. It is not running gas chambers or crematoria. It is not forcing Palestinians on death marches. What Israel is doing today isn't comparable to Nazi Germany, and the fact that you think it is shows how little you understand the current situation and the Holocaust.
This is literally what people are talking about when they say AI will be used to mainstream widely held bigotry. LLMs are trained on frequency and probability -> straight relationships are more well represented in the dataset -> straight pronouns and terms become the "correct" normal.
This is a form of backdoor bigotry from both normative facts (there are more straight than gay relationships) and well represented bigoted beliefs (men are superior to women).
Combine this with the mass of people inclined to believe (and being encouraged to believe) that if AI says and does something it must be correct
