The right is REALLY good at messaging it’s insane. The culture wars they start have created a “bogeyman” and it’s insane.

I really hate it and how it sticks to the zeitgeist. It just makes me sad.

Dan Olsen on Folding Ideas talked about Fortnite and a bunch of the dark patterns that they do in regular mode until you pay:

He called it “manufactured discontent”.

I think right-wing talk radio has been going for quite a while as well.

Okay, maybe sub-genre is the proper phrase I was thinking of. Thanks!

I’m a dual citizen from the UK/Canada.

I feel the same way after Brexit. I felt a huge sense of dread and my coworker said to me, “we work in a high paying position and we’re men, we’re mostly going to be okay. The people that voted for Brexit have just f*cked themselves and there’s nothing we can do about it.”

I do feel a lot of animosity to any Trump supporter and I feel that’s warranted. I don’t care to elaborate further. I’m thinking of dropping social media for the next six months because there’s a lot of shit going on that I have no control over and I can’t change.

Yeah I stopped when Lane got there. Up until that point I was a staunch advocate of the show. I felt the finale and premiere of some of those seasons were some of the best TV I’ve seen.

I mean I haven’t watched it since university, not sure if it holds up, but I remember it being amazing.

I used to be that guy too. I used to be the idiot that recommended him to others as well. I followed him from NewsRadio, FearFactor and stuff too man.

Yeah I actively avoid anything related to that clown now.

Fuck Joe Rogan, there could literally not be a worst candidate for the Republican party than Trump right now and this fuck face endorses him. Fuck him.

I remember working in the London UK office and we curse non-stop over there it’s great. Whenever our colleagues from SF would visit they would always be surprised how much we swear. I’d see them do the turnaround like, ‘what just happened?’.

I’m so dumb, I thought it was “a slaughter of crows” and didn’t get it. It’s a “murder of crows” for anyone else like me.

I mean did Usher, Beyonce or Taylor Swift start up an illegal lottery for government kickbacks?

I’m not sure but I don’t think they started Super PACs either.

The entire post of yours is dishonest but the Usher thing is especially stupid as well. Usher endorsed Kamala, not the other way around 🤡 .

I loved it. But to each their own. I don’t think it signals much about society though 😛.

I think Sam Seder was talking about how he did this set in an NYC comedy club the night before and it bombed there too.

“You know that’s a joke,” Rogan said. “That’s like going to a Quentin Tarantino movie [and saying], ‘And then the man killed that woman.’ Like, he didn’t really kill that woman … this is a movie.”

I don’t know where to begin. Joe said earlier that it isn’t a comedy show, so don’t do a set there and then he’s calling out Obama. How about you go fuck yourself Joe. Also, you fucking suck at comedy too. Your set sucks.

Trump has a lifetime pass somehow. It’s the strangest thing. DeSantis, Haley, … like nobody else can get away with it.

If Trump said this it would be news but it’d completely fade away into the plethora of other things he’s said.

Thank you.

It’s tough on the other people around as well as that person. It’s not that they don’t care, it’s that they don’t know how to help and the negativity and stuff affects them too.

By the way, I say that as someone who’s been clinically diagnosed and did six months as an inpatient.

That they all go back home and do a podcast about how the left wing and Democrats are the real enemy but they’re definitely not Nazis though.

Same peeps that don’t chill, message me every now and again that they’re lonely.

Then decline every invitation I give them.

I also like the absurd amount of permissions it requires. Meta couldn’t let their guard down for a moment.

To clarify, I mean Meta couldn’t be a little less data hungry in order to take marketshare from Twitter. They instantly needed access to absolutely everything at the start.
