  • “my favourite conspiracy theory is the one that Michelle Obama is a man.”

    That isn't even a good conspiracy. (that is also why it is a dogwhistle, if you enjoyed those kinds of crazy conspiracies you would say 'transvestigations where everybody famous is actually trans' is my fave (and yes they do it to everybody, it is very dumb). Focussing only on Michelle is odd, and shows in the kind of environments you hang out with (My example would be Andrew Tate, but it also isn't funny, as it is part of the wider 'make trans people unsafe' campaign, and people should understand that))).

  • It was amazing that maupin went 'people accuse me of being a duginist and it was crazy, never read any of his work when people said that. Minutes later I have read his work now however, and quite agree with him'. (Badly paraphrased however).

    Also lol at crp.

  • Yeah, im just saying it exists. Not saying people make similar bad life choices to me that make you realize this stuff exists. (If you do want to however thought slimes 'hmm borger king' video about maupin is quite something).

  • There isn’t much about this guy on the internet.

    There is actually, but it is mostly on youtube. Anyway he aligned himself to Caleb Maupin. A colorblind communist who thinks brown is red. (I dont think he is actually colorblind, but he likes Dugin).

  • The crypto boom of 2021 was a direct result of a bunch of Americans being cooped up, too online, and also, critically, having a bunch of extra cash thanks to Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loans and a series of temporary relief checks

    People (esp pro crypto ones) keep saying this, and I dont believe this is true. Dont even think the timelines match up. (There is another story about crypto boom and inflation which also doesnt match the timelines).

  • 'I asked the AI to help me with our process and the AI actually had no suggestions, we are already on the top of our game. turns out "

    <self congratulatory bullshit line from the PR materials>

    ' wasn't just pr'.

  • Taxis dating and food. Love how the 'innovation' of AI is now just going after the uberfication targets of last time.

    And the manifesto but just makes me think that this will be the first AI to attempt a mass shooting. Unhinged ahistorical manifesto usually precludes that. 'Roman siegeworks' what? (This isnt about siegeworks, it is about roman discipline, they should have thought about a defensive wall from the start. (It even has a technical name which I have forgotten). Literally the wrong conclusion imho. And if you look at the wiki page, the whole story about them building the defenses in the night is just made up (also the word is 'Contravallation' (which was also in the manifesto image, I need new glasses)).

    Also think the step from 'victorious empire' to 'empire laying in ruins' the next paragraph is just bad writing.

    And a last thing, the whole fadeing in of the text/images on the site is annoying, and also breaks for me at times. Causing the images to fade in and out randomly. "Made by sleep-deprived engineers and sheer will" that tracks.
