Need to let loose a primal scream without collecting footnotes first? Have a sneer percolating in your system but not enough time/energy to make a whole post about it? Go forth and be mid: Welcome to the Stubsack, your first port of call for learning fresh Awful you’ll near-instantly regret.
Any awful.systems sub may be subsneered in this subthread, techtakes or no.
If your sneer seems higher quality than you thought, feel free to cut’n’paste it into its own post — there’s no quota for posting and the bar really isn’t that high.
The post Xitter web has spawned soo many “esoteric” right wing freaks, but there’s no appropriate sneer-space for them. I’m talking redscare-ish, reality challenged “culture critics” who write about everything but understand nothing. I’m talking about reply-guys who make the same 6 tweets about the same 3 subjects. They’re inescapable at this point, yet I don’t see them mocked (as much as they should be)
Like, there was one dude a while back who insisted that women couldn’t be surgeons because they didn’t believe in the moon or in stars? I think each and every one of these guys is uniquely fucked up and if I can’t escape them, I would love to sneer at them.
(Semi-obligatory thanks to @dgerard for starting this)
The couple’s long conversations about transgender people haven’t gotten as much attention, with just 2,500 views on a video in which they “explore the fine line between genuine gender dysphoria and the allure of a ‘trans cult’ that may lead non-trans individuals to make life-altering decisions.”
Oh boy an hour long video about how the trans are transing eachother as part of a trans cult!
But why aren’t they concerned about kids being tricked into the life altering decision of being an “anti-woke” podcaster? 🤔
Edit – made it through most of that video (how??) and it’s a bunch of reaching and fear mongering while trying to sound like principled conservatives. The funniest part was probably them blaming anime avatars for trans people.
Edit – just kidding the funniest part was the guy calling trans people the “priest class” of urbanism. Worship me and I shall bless you with seperated bicycle lanes and bountiful farmers markets!

holy fuck, I’ve seen anti-trans accounts on mastodon spew this same shit and I’m kind of surprised it’s a wider conservative conspiracy theory and not something local to mastodon

leftists don’t go to church on Sundays, they just trans themselves and then bikeshed about bike sheds

I think Blanchard started with this one. If you needed more proof the guy is an absolute case of brain worms. (E: Here is the source)
E: I wonder what caused the sudden public appearance of more trans people, anime? Or the change in laws about a decade ago where most of the western world stopped sterilizing and going after trans people. (it is nuts that the terfs never bring this up, so worried about trans healthcare perhaps causing some permanent changes while ignoring that very recently that sterilization was mandatory in most of the western world (A law in .nl between 1985 and 2014 for example). Fucking assholes.)
