  • The overwhelming trend from Americans here seem to be far (for america) left political views.

    There are outliers, and this could be a correlation or Lenny’s own form of propane’s, but there’s still a lot of disagreement in the comments over the finer points a lot of the time (as Reddit once was like) so imo there is some evidence of broad resistance to at least some forms of propaganda here. Given also how much of it is outright critical of many of the more mainstream forms of propaganda.

    It’s admittedly a weak correlation based on personal experience browsing /r/all so it would be absurd to imply anything causal re: autism but thinking about that got me thinking about this and also a better chance to understand some members of another type of neurotypical so I figured I’d ask.




  • The current anger with Sanders appears to be, from an outsiders pov, that he didn’t criticize Israel by calling it a genocide soon enough.

    That appears to be it.

    I mean. To dismiss everything because one mistake, even if that mistake is massive, and then correcting that mistake, if belatedly, to me, says something very positive about that politician.

    I’d prefer it was immediate, and it’s gross that it took him so long, but all the other stuff isn’t cancelled out by that. He’s still a net positive. And he DID criticize earlier than any other us politician I can think of, and sure it Could have been even earlier and harsher, but like. Fuck. If you hate politicians for being open to changing mind based on new evidence, or reforming beliefs you don’t like, or admitting mistakes, you are AGAINST them being rational and it plays right into the hands of neoliberal propagandists.

    I have socks can only be worn inside out sensory issues. The seam is evil. The seam cannot touch my toes. Get the seam away from me, the seam is like nails on a chalkboard, if I feel the seam all I can think about is the seam, the wiggly, stupid, always there, annoying, ever-present seam. Fuck you, seam.

    But if I’m at home I’m naked. Just straight up.like, not no socks, no clothing at all
