The gutless moralizing about a need to "condemn Hamas" explicitly privileges Israeli lives above Palestinian lives.
A demand to acknowledge that violence against Israelis is more heinous than the far bloodier context that violence exists within.
What the fuck you think is gonna happen exactly? There's gonna be some groundswell of western support for fucking Hamas? Do you really think that's a big concern?

Incredibly, somehow the irony was lost on many peopl,e who have decided that this was a coded message attacking one of their favs.
My point has been proven, following the EXACT arc I laid out to a tee.
I truly thought the example of "baby pisser" would be so self-evidently absurd that nobody could mistake it for some sort of accusation against a real person, but I guess I underestimated people's ability to read in bad faith!

The twitter experience:
You see that "pissonbabies" is trending. You tweet that you think it is bad. You log in later to see dozens of people dragging you, who think you're specifically beefing with some content-doer who has decided to make baby pissing their whole personality.
Months down the line, the baby pisser's life is in tatters. all of their misfortune is laid at your feet by an ardent fanbase who insist that they strenuously disagree with the baby pissing, but otherwise think they made a lot of good points.

Fuck it, here are some things I've learned from thousands of exactly one e-mails from hopeful eyeball supplicants:
Everyone is afraid to ask for something. Everyone is afraid to say "I would like this please."
When someone offers you something, you don't have to apologize for asking for it.

I don't know if this is a particularly new observation, but modern day fascists critique "post modernism" using precisely the same language and logic as classic fascists used to describe modernism.
In both cases they are presented as degenerative, dangerous and destabilizing ideologies meant to corrupt and weaken the nation by destroying traditional values.
"Post-modernists" preach moral relativism, which (something something), now everybody's gay.

I know I'm preaching to the choir here, but it really needs to be said that allowing children to make decisions free from social pressure and coercion, rather than forcing them to conform to what makes you comfortable ...is the literal opposite of grooming.
If you wanted to know what grooming looked like, a good example would be state officials saying "Hey kid, if you don't assume the prescribed gender role we have created for you, we will put your parents in jail and torture you."

Ge'ez, yeah, to find out that information you'd have to listen to anything anyone has ever said in the past two years.
Tim have a little faith in yourself, you don't need to feign ignorance, just rely on your incredible cache of genuine ignorance.

One of the central contradictions of capitalism is that in order for it to function the people in charge of huge multi-national corporations are expected to act in the corp's best interests, but are incentivized to instead prioritize any short term gains over long term ones.
If you could make the corpo $10,000,000 over ten years, or $1,000,000 in one quarter in an unsustainable way that drains your resources and makes future revenue impossible, the corpo's best interest is for you to do the former but yours is the latter.

Can't work and can't relax just sitting and compulsively doing nothing
Executive dysfunction doesn't just mean you play video games a lot, sometimes you can't even do that
Putting in effort to put in effort, but failing

A lot of people have reached out to ask me why I didn't feature enough (any?) creators of colour in my ADHD video, and I'd put it down to two things:
1. I didn't communicate that that's something I was specifically looking for, therefore perhaps making marginalized people feel as though their submissions would be dismissed.
This is my mistake, and I'll do better in the future.

Peter Coffin shut the fuck up challenge.
This numbnuts is now trying to present me as saying I think Lenin or Leninism is antisemetic, not that I think that Caleb is an antisemite.
Completely bad faith, an utter clown.

Feels to me like every system of government (or there lack of) relies on people behaving "correctly", and most charges of utopianism are pure projection.
"you assume people will just behave themselves without consequences, they need leaders to hold them accountable"
Yeah
But
Aren't you assuming the leaders will just behave themselves without consequences?

I feel I should make something clear. The point of my video today was not to convince people not to buy from Amazon. I think it's good to buy less things in general, but amazon is a symptom of the larger problem.
Yes amazon is an evil exploitative company, but do you think there's a way to buy the things they sell on amazon WITHOUT exploitation? Do you think buying them from Wal-Mart, or Best Buy is any more moral?

Inspired by @DrawfeeShow, I drew some of my childhood OCs.
In the center is Bob, that crystal on his head is an alien superweapon that allows his clothes to transform into extra body parts.

a lifetime of being poor means each time you do up a monthly budget and end up with a surplus, you just end up doing the calculation again and again with more imaginary fees until you end up with a negative
"Hmmm, this says I'll have money left over. I'm being irresponsible if I assume that simply because of math."

I'm watching a response video to one of my videos, and the guy said that "this is one of the most well studied issues in economics" and I shit you not, brought up an article from THE MISES INSTITUTE
Now he's arguing that free homes won't solve homelessness, because the real problem is cuts to social programs (which he supports).

This tweet sucks shit, but a lot of people are misrepresenting WHY it sucks shit.
Soo is not saying "more 👏women 👏war 👏criminals"
She's saying that if more women were hired these abuses wouldn't occur.
She's viewing the problem as though it was merely toxic masculinity which produces police brutality, rather than the fact that the police as an institution were designed to encourage this type of brutality.

Is Dune horror? The world is presents is so fucking grim that I find it difficult not to think of it that way.
When they just casually mention "Oh, this guy can't be the traitor in our midst because IMPERIAL CONDITIONING IS UNBREAKABLE"

It'd be a lot easier for me to left go of 'lefttube drama' if the people I'm trying to ignore would just leave me alone in stead of constantly escalating the conflict and sending their dipshit fans to harass me wherever I go.
It's not shocking, because I've seen them do it to so many people before me, but it's fucking irritating.

It's amazing how people will look at my video series about shitty jobs and how we all have to work jobs that suck more than they have to and that sucks, and they'll be confused like "Yeah, all jobs suck, what's your point?"
"Yeah, one third of our lives (at least) are meaningless drudgery that we gain nothing from, but must do lest we starve to death. What's the issue here?"

When JK Rowling says her "biological sex" is a key aspect of her identity, it's nonsense for a few reasons.
Firstly, nobody is gonna change your biology, so what exactly is it you are afraid of changing here?
Secondly, if you understood what it meant for something like that to be a key aspect of your identity, you wouldn't feel so glib about denying key aspects of other people's identity.
