Typical of the far right, ignore facts and reality because it doesn’t suit their agendas, I feel sorry for them really, it must be hard having all that hatred burning inside of them

The right aren’t interested in facts. I don’t feel sorry for them.

They’ll be the death of us all.

There’s got to be something wrong with them for them to be constantly taken in and manipulated by conmen like Farage, Robinson and Trump, something deeply lacking from within, it’s the biggest mental health crisis the world faces imo, but unfortunately it affects everybody else around them far too much by the time they see the light, it’s a scary time to live in as a minority

Notice how the faux outrage has died down now they know the shooter wasn’t left wing, like the majority of shooters. Notice the extinguishing flow of tweets being posted from the right wing calling for war.

They believe what they want to believe. They aren’t capable of dealing in facts. Facts don’t lie.

[Parmy]

The media does though
History has proven that.

[Liam-]

But of course the left is responsible for every and all glorification of violence

Thoughts, prayers and understanding for straight white criminals, death, destruction and hatred for anybody else, it’s the far rights way

Can someone explain why being from the right or the left is relevant, a man is dead because someone didn't like his opinions....is that correct or no?

That is correct. Killed for his.opinions, his death celebrated by marginal, stupid people.

[Santa's NaughtiNess]

I'm neither left or right. I'm just upset a man was shot and killed in front of his small children.

oh dear

Charlie Kirk assassin was “deeply indoctrinated with leftist ideology” and lived with his TRANSGENDER partner.

Utah Gov. Spencer Cox revealed preliminary investigations found Robinson’s political ideology “very clear to us and to the investigators” and that he was “deeply indoctrinated with leftist ideology.”

It has also been revealed by Fox News reporter
@brookeSingman
that he had been living with his transgender partner, a male who identifies as female.

Robinson fired the fatal shot at Kirk just seconds after Kirk spoke about trans mass shooters.

So I noticed something fun about FB... when I go to just normal posts and groups, the messages people are leaving—surprise—are sane reactions or side commentary adjacent to the state of the world and what had happened, etc. There's nothing stigmatized about it. It's very expected. Not a single lunatic to be found.

However, the gamer/anime pages... I have been noticing this as a predictable trend for quite some time. (They keep popping up in my feed even though I click them away )

Today this one pops up:

Spoilering for your Occupational Therapist:

Spoiler:

At this point I'm questioning their intelligence level. It's been a few years, but the human on the bottom right is very much the "good guy" for what I guess would be called today the "disenfranchised". His whole entire adventure is based around him more or less fighting tyranny and oppression without going corrupt himself. It being a Japanese game (97'), I'm fairly certain they weren't thinking at all about gendered race wars and other pedantic culture war **** while it was being developed.

This isn't an actual quote in the game, but I just find it so ironic some are so very concerned about the misuse of words and misconstrued logic. And yet it's becoming increasingly clear to me the people largely driving this crap are dumbasses who spend way too much time in their basement modifying reality to nurse a unique martyr complex loosely based around some political agenda. Imagine taking a decades old game and trying to make it fit within the scope of today's politics. If you're a historian today, how do you wrap your head around this phenomenon?

The pages with normal hobbies and topics are not attracting this behavior. However, go to the anime & game-y pages and they all seem to be no go zones because they're full of propaganda and people with weird behavioral complexes reacting in a butthurt manner. Are these people just spending that much time consuming media that their brains are warped? Is this why they're so stupid??

The problem with the algorithms is that they're shoving this crap at everyone despite whatever their purpose of being on that website actually is.

It's the exact same on X but from the other end of the political spectrum. It's clear those people consume way too much news and are constantly looking for details and information to twist and turn into some kind of culture war garbage. It's no wonder why some people are being "radicalized" if they're rapidly being exposed to these divisions in this way within minutes of logging in daily. Especially when it's targeting our young.

In the late 90s when computers/internet usage was coming into wide use, we banned chatrooms and chatservers over liability problems because the terminally online crazies took them over and behaved in the same sociopathic ways: doxing, abusive posts, stalking, harassment campaigns, etc. This became untenable and because they became a breeding ground for abuse and a safety issue for children, they were closed. Now we let these elements dictate and manage the political discourse around our most precious institutions. Is it really a surprise we've gone the way we have with this at the helm?

I'm thinking I'll check and see what is going on with legislation. Maybe even write and suggest changes, because as it is platforms are incentivized to cater to internet addiction. While we can't do anything about stupidity, we really should think about how we can go about preventing it from having such an outsized influence on our political discourse.


Maybe there's some perfect solution to be had for many of the topics at the forefront.. but I wouldn't know that as a casual observer, because the system as it's currently designed solely caters to appeasing and keeping amused the most gullible and socially bereft in our society. (Sorry for the language, but just trying to get my actual sentiment across)

This flew under the radar I think for a lot of people. What a waste...:

DC Cancels ‘Red Hood’ Comic Book Series After Writer Shares Inflammatory Post Following Charlie Kirk Shooting
Gretchen Felker-Martin was behind the title, which DC said would be pulled: "Posts or public comments that can be viewed as promoting hostility or violence are inconsistent with DC’s standards of conduct."
https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/bu...rk-1236368576/

DC has shelved its Red Hood comic book series following writer Gretchen Felker-Martin sharing posts on Bluesky that joked about the shooting of Charlie Kirk, who was killed by an assassin’s bullet Wednesday.

google and MS have been directing attention in the direction they want for decades now. If you look at any recent google or MS product announcements for any product, they are 100% cringe fests (at least to me) I can't believe that they resonate with american viewers either

I've written before that Americans have had (historically) a strong herd mentality relationship with our media, so it's very hard to break that pattern... even if the crap we're reading doesn't make any sense and it's causing all kinds of psychological stress...

I really do think that is starting to break.
