@lonely_nis@QGorilla43710 TBF this has been around since at least Noah Antwiler/The Spoony One. It's just that now both the 'guru' and the audience are open about wanting that instead of it being a "man, it would be cool if I could do that for a living" pipe dream.
@grimmmnm@YEAST_USSR2 It's downstream from that insipid "language = thought" canard that shitlibs and progressives love...despite said canard being literal fucking race-science.
@GagarinGorilla@buckadeath And why is he always in a wheelchair after any form of surgery? I got two wisdom teeth removed in one appointment 4 years ago and just drove home afterwards, for example.
@tgnlnv@JamesMagnus101@CarolinaLion2 The subprime mortgage comparison is apt and like when that was in the process of happening, people made the same excuses as they do now:
>"we fixed the problems that caused the last crisis so another crisis can't happen"
>"even if it does, it won't nearly be as bad"
@CommodMkt Yep. It's the MO of the govt here in NZ as well, where such problems are framed exclusively in "regulatory" and "taxation" terms, where it "isn't a physical shortage of 'x' commodity" but "a regulatory issue preventing us from sourcing it from elsewhere™️"
@AzadSingh12745@SunnyMarmalaid@buckadeath Beat me to the punch. It reminds me a lot of the [American] pro-gun people who are far more preoccupied fighting perceived enemies and phantom feds than they are fighting their real enemies.
@LeBolshevikman What's wild to me is how if you went back and told alt-right JQer types about stuff like this and how out in the open it all is, they would assume you're making a hyperbolic parody of their worldviews.
@sundervisand@buckadeath >No taxation
>Can criticise Israel without fear of arrest or harassment
>Beer and weed are legal
>Can own guns
>Free housing and healthcare
>Worker's rights constitutionally guaranteed
Sounds pretty good to me, bro.
@sundervisand@buckadeath A commie block that can take infinite kinzhals and will outlast the civilisation that built it vs some shitty shack with paper-thin walls where the doors don't close properly that costs 70% of your income to rent or half a mil to 'buy'?
Think I'll take the former.
@NullenM@HugoLey47@agg1987@AllDeezAliens@nypost The Kirk memes are too tryhard IMO. At least make it funny, like joking that the real reason Kirk was shot was because he spurned his secret gay lover for another man, for example.
