All this hype over a deranged fascist who's still struggling to get over 10% in primary polls is intentional. NYT and legacy media are deliberately hyping up fascists in a way that allows them to paint young people as fascists despite overwhelming statistical evidence to the contrary.

It's kind of amazing how quickly AI bros went from "AI will democratise everything" to "we are using AI to take power away from people we don't like". Oh and they're now openly admitting that they're misogynists too, because that was also the entire point of it.

Tbh my immediate take is that this Game of Thrones knockoff actually has much in common with a lot of Western fantasy IPs (including GoT) and a handful of modern RPGs: namely their inability to imagine a world that isn't exactly like the terrible world that already exists but with stage magic.

The whole "AI" industry is just based on the hope that they can deskill people fast enough that they'll have to rent back cognitive support systems. Forever.

It's like Uber. Just that they don't try to break existing transportation infrastructures but your brain.

I've seen many anti-communist canards and this is by far the dumbest one of them all.

These New Statesman morons (who I'm sure nobody is actually reading) seem to think "porn alters your mind" is an original take that definitely hasn't been debunked.

The fucking stupid part of it is that "make porn expensive again" implies that most people were even paying for porn anymore. Even fewer people will be paying for it if these idiots get their way.

Remember when Labour used to put Boris Johnson on blast for leaving the Afghan people to suffer the yoke of Taliban rule? Now they're doing the exact same thing they criticised the Tories for: leaving Afghan women and girls to suffer under Taliban rule.

At this point the easiest case you can make against the NHS now is simply why should we pay taxes for a healthcare service that actively refuses to care for people.

Was asked to appear on the radio, to discuss Zack Polanski's previous job of offering hypnotherapy for breast enlargement

While unavailable for this obvious hit piece, if you're legit worried about 'politicians saying/doing things that aren't evidence based', there are far more prominent examples

Ok so how tf do you parody this? Legitimately one of the dumbest and most absurd things Trump has ever done, and yet I expect it will resonate through the ages just for how aptly it symbolises the descent of American politics into the depths of self-parody.

It becomes a lot less of a puzzle when you notice that one of the pieces is religion and end times prophecy, which is why a lot of right-wing evangelicals support Israel on just about everything.

I mean, I didn't entirely enjoy my 20s and I can say confidently that the world was better a decade ago. I was simply far more socially awkward back then. I had a lot more freedom but didn't know how to use it. Truth is a lot of people in their 20s were the same way, but had better social skills.

Why are the media calling it "rough sex"? This was not "rough sex", this was rape. Why won't the media call this what it is?

Honestly the problem is Corbyn and his fans thought he was more relevant than in fact he was. He's been replaced by the much cooler and savvier leader of the Green Party.

It's actually incredible how a year ago we were all talking about how Yorp was gonna be the new main party of the left and in the end they're getting like 0%. All that hype just for a party that's even less relevant than an open fascist party.
