but like, why did it take him tanking Twitter for many to realize that he’s just a manbaby with a diamond-encrusted platinum pacifier

like it’s really weird that it wasn’t clear when he called that one guy who saved those kids in that cave a pedophile because the guy told Musk that his invention wouldn’t be useful for the rescue effort; like people didn’t see how shitty he was after he said that

I mean, do they?

like not every place has a grocery store that’s easy to get to

tbf, grimes is not better

would expect both of them to be less like this if that were the case

why is this man like this

you know, it’s really funny that every time someone goes “I don’t care about <XYZ>'s open political opinions, only that they keep doing/making the thing I want” they invariably end up being some kind of right-winger

I did not know minecoins were a thing

but in any case, I’m not saying that they’re making a good decision, just that I don’t see the point of reddit gold

are you LGBTQ though?

because if not, this take isn’t it; there’s a lot about LGBTQ communities that you’re not going to understand just by being around them or being related to them

I have absolutely no interest in dealing with people who think it’s okay for site moderators to remove any criticism of China because of “orientalism”

I’m actually of two minds on this one

to give them the benefit of the doubt, a lot of “criticism” of China often boils down to sinophobia and a lot of Western internet users do not seem to be able to tell the difference

and there it fucking is

I think they’re rebuking people for being hypocritical and not actually paying attention; like fascism really is the bigger danger rn, while most people in the US at least have like kneejerk negative reactions to the concept of communism

like it is not a “both sides are equally bad” thing

Also not all people share your political opinions.

how are you going to call “this group shouldn’t have the rights that everyone else has” something as quaint as a “political opinion”

on one hand, reddit gold is useless and a waste of money imo

other hand, they just keep going for making the most controversial decisions with zero thought lmao

you know that this “I don’t care that this person holds bigoted beliefs and thinks that some people shouldn’t have rights, they make the good computer program so who cares” attitude is why so many people think that tech guys are reactionary, right?

nah, you’re right

the term always gives me images of channer culture; like it reminds me when the internet as a whole thought that 4chan and its ilk were cool and elite for being shitty for “lulz”

it needs to be retired

by who, though? Itself?
