"DAE le Musk Derangement Syndrome?"

Techbros are burning the world down in swathes to fuel their theftboxes at best, and artificial lovers at worst, Neuralink just fucked some guy's brains up, Cybertrucks keep failing left and goddamn right, but sure, let's just chalk all this up to "Musk Derangement Syndrome" jesus fucking christ I hate you techbro settlers. Please die young of something preventable.

Can you string together 2 sentences without culture war tropes?

[–] Nakoichi@hexbear.net 7 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Culture war is when a person points out the chauvinism inherent in cracker fantasies about colonizing the stars because there is nowhere left to colonize here without just admitting to themselves they just want to subjugate everyone and everything on earth and above.

@frauddogg@hexbear.net is 100% correct in every single comment they have made in this thread.

I can't really even add anything to this other than say they right fuck off.

[–] frauddogg@hexbear.net 7 points 3 days ago (1 children)

"As below, so above" might as well be the settler-colonizer's ethos. "As I subjugate everything below me, I must reach for what's above." At what point is Polly satisfied?

Never, apparently. Humanity will go extinct thanks to this malign tumor on our collective neck.

[–] Nakoichi@hexbear.net 8 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Also funny how libs mistake actual structural material analysis as "culture war tropes" because their framework for viewing the world is constrained by their MSNBC vs Fox News idea of good and bad and anything that challenges it must be from the wrong side of said culture war. Which funnily enough is also culture war bullshit.

"Surely I can't be racist I'm one of the good white people!"

[–] frauddogg@hexbear.net 8 points 3 days ago (1 children)

because their framework for viewing the world is constrained by their MSNBC vs Fox News idea of good and bad

Kinda outs their whole "war is a football game to you" allegation as pure projection, doesn't it? There is fundamentally zero difference between the 'cUlTuRe WaR', the electoral race, and the "professional" handegg games that will go on in two days for these settler liberals.

[–] Nakoichi@hexbear.net 8 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Yeah they will smugly condescend to us with their "not a team sport" shit all the while demanding we vote for their particular team because harm reduction or whatever. Meanwhile every president and 99% of congress people of either party in my 40 years has done the same genocidal shit.

[–] FrogPrincess@lemmy.ml 4 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Are you doing a bit?

The allegation was that you're pulling everything back to culture wars, and you instantly started talking about "MSNBC vs Fox" and the USA's two-party system. In a thread about China's space program.

Not beating the allegations.

[–] Nakoichi@hexbear.net 9 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (1 children)

Where the hell was China even brought up? This thread afaik is about settler brainworms regarding space colonization.

Like colonize is literally in the title of this post.

Allegations of what exactly. What are you alleging about me?

[–] FrogPrincess@lemmy.ml 4 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Allegations of what exactly. What are you alleging about me?

Being unable to formulate a thought, because you're addicted to drawing culture war lines.

[–] Nakoichi@hexbear.net 6 points 3 days ago

I am not even the person that you initially responded to. You're just a lib that is in way over your head in a topic you refuse to engage in critically because it makes you uncomfortable.

[–] witx@lemmy.sdf.org 1 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (2 children)

Meh I dislike Musk as well but I don't let that cloud my judgement of his companies or science/engineering in general.

[–] BelieveRevolt@hexbear.net 7 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I don't let that cloud my judgement of his companies

That says a lot about you, then. The guy's a fascist but you don't care because so-true muh bazingamobiles and space crap!

[–] frauddogg@hexbear.net 6 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

Polly's Tenet: "I can excuse anything from anyone if it means my treats arrive on time". My parrot is literally more disciplined than these settler shitstains.

[–] frauddogg@hexbear.net 6 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (1 children)

He isn't even the guy behind any discovery his manifold bought-up companies make. He's just the nepobaby failspawn of blood emerald mining company money in South Africa; and as far as I'm concerned, that makes anything that comes out of his companies while he helms them fruit of the poison tree.

We do not support, uplift, or patronize colonizers, slavers, resource-extracting thieves, or any combination of the three in this house.

[–] LilyRose1919@lemmygrad.ml 5 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Then stop obsessing on him maybe? The thread was supposed to be about space stations and stuff.

[–] m532@hexbear.net 4 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

melon-musk and those other bazingas are all the same

Colonizer fantasies and zero knowledge about how anything works
