Where were during the great tumblr purge?
Posted 7 years agoTumblr was told by Apple that they couldn't be on the App Store because of the rampant child porn on it.
So they tried to make a bot that detected CP, and that was what happened a while back with Tumblr accounts.
Since hired a staff and implemented a robust report system takes money....
They instead said "NUKE IT ALL!"
Perfect argument as to why capitalism sux u gaise. i dont make truf, i just says it

J E S U S (10 FUGGEN YEARS)
Posted 7 years agoTen years now (ate ino) holy fug. So much has changed. my characters have actually been more fleshed out and focused since then, and the internet in general has become more of a hellscape, to mirror the hell world we're living in. Youtube poops aren't that funny anymore, although that doesn't mean there aren't gems as of late, and more adult animation is actually catching on finally.
I wanted to thank

as well as others i either forgot to mention, or who ive yet to meet.
I wonder if any of this will be around in another ten years. I kinda doubt it a little, but we'll see.

The Art Of The Heel: Politics as Wrestling, Media Madness
Posted 7 years agoThe title pretty much sums it up. With ever growing online presence via attention grabbing outrage media, and politics as performative, it's now more important than ever to analize media, but not in the many people think.
There's, like, a book, by some french guy. Guy Debored I think? Something about howsocial interaction is mediated between images, and how everything is about appearacne. Legit, I reccomend reading about it, hell wikipedia is a good summery of it.
As is this highly illuminating video series, titled above: The Art Of The Heel

Ready reference 1: a culture waiting for the lights to go ou
Posted 7 years agoThere was an analysis from some old guy with a beard. Something about the system eventually self destructing, or something that effect? Welp, your seeing it happen in media, and in real time no less, all at the behest of the mighty nostalgia dollar., coinciding global economic and ecological trends that spell burnout, albeit not because we're even using all of the resources, rather we're wasting them, as part of a larger ideology of growth for it's own sake.
I just came up with a term for this kinda of movie, or really, anything 'nostalgia' related material, and that is 'zombie media' or 'zombie culture' because it's back from the dead, and it wants to eat your brain.
I find it interesting that, allot of newer material that doesn't have a pre-existence in pop-culture form from something five or more years old, is typically self made, or independently, albeit is rare, though I admit I might not have looked much. If only we could use resources for need, rather than for the sake of racking up what is essentially a score that dehumanizes everyone.

Easter Fools?
Posted 7 years agoi just noticed these two holidays are on the same day. maybe this means something? what if jesus actually just played a really elaborate prank? what if he comes back, and suddenly 'lol u guise gotta change the date now, its actually the year 109.692.181!
or, perhaps one of the biggest pranks of all is that this holiday is an invention to sell chocolate in vast quantities with cheap labor where all the profits just go to the top? maybe that too.

Posted 7 years agoYou know, I really don't care about star wars, 'cept maybe the new rebels series, but I'm seeing a pattern similar to when the last big hype didney monster media mash, of many people who would vocally align themselves against 'snowflakes' yet often would permeate the same traits associated with the connotations of that social phrase, almost like their projecting, funny that.
"If you're wondering why critics are rating this cinematic suppository so highly, it's probably because they don't want to be accused of sexism." Do kindly fuck right off with that persecution complex please.
I hate to be.....one of 'those' guys, but, i kinda *miss* those old days, when people would just say they didn't like a piece of media, or just make arguments that its bad, or just rant about it, except now it's all about this 'muh culture war' bullshit. It's especially damning when there actually is a cultural reflection that is legitimately terrifying, and is a reflection of our current economics, namely we live in a culture that is basically waiting for the lights to go out, watching prettier versions of reruns, ala production for its own sake on a planet of finite resources, all in the name of the Shiney. yay.
Nostalgia is going to kill us...unless we kill it first though. There is that. Like, kill the concept of nostalgia...and like, not be obsessed with and/or buy into the past, aside from learning about history, perhaps? that might actually...wake us up, or at least make us dream of something different to get our shit in gear or something!
Still though, it actually is more fun is watching these first world problems folk get giggled at for the shiteads that they are, watching those very same shitheads that have become the very defacto fun police they were seemingly been against in the first place, all because of insecurities they have.
Speaking of, here's some silly unititedkingdomian giggling at some of those folks now, and take note of the mistakes of old and learn from them, or something!

This Might Upset Some People But...
Posted 8 years ago'Cultural Marxism' is one hell of a buzzword. Most people that have used it tend to be charlatans and pseudointellectuals.
and for something a little more juicy on the subject.
You can unwatch if your upset, or stay and reevaluate some things you've heard that might have a narrative behind their use. We need to talk about this, especially with some of the shit that's been going on. Not even a swidge tbh, just sick of bullshit.

So, if you value the way the internet works, with no data being held in 'higher' ranks than others across the board, get out there and make your voice be heard.
One simple way is when booting up Firefox, it asks you to make a brief comment and fill out some info. They're only going to listen if the majority makes their voices heard.

They get there, and the accommodations are literally refugee tents, there are feral dogs about, the locals are robbing everyone blind and apparently security isn't much either. I know I might sound heartless, but that's only because I am. I can't help but laugh at not only the fact that this was a hilarious scam (the difference between tragedy and comedy is who is on the receiving end I suppose.) and the other seeing these rich kids finally out of their bubble of spectacle and see what plebs have to deal with on a daily basis. They should get used to it, since the whole world might be like that soon. Then again it's not even that bad:

Let's Talk About Antifa! :^)
Posted 8 years agoTL:DR edgy liberals who don't read any books punching other people who also don't read any books.
The long version will require some context and explanation, and Jesus shit there is allot to explain.
First off, we need to actually know what the actual living fuck fascism really is, since anti-fascism is literally their name, and not the watered down Orwellian newspeak version used today that is even more vague than it already is. Instead of looking at it as an irrational jingoistic authoritarianism, it actually has rational elements to it. One of the best teachers is history, and for that there is this little video here:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D2ZR9a_vvfk
Not using the embed feature since it will take up too much space. Also Kraut and Tea had a decent video on clerical fascism, but this one has better context. Basically, there was a very economic element to the fascism of Germany and Italy: extremely anti-socialist (another word that has lost all meaning) depression of wages more so than they already were, breaking up of unions, and privatization: http://www.ub.edu/graap/nazi.pdf Albeit with extreme repression, which is the only thing people are told about, rather than the hows or whys, thus leading to people being ahistorical, and view the world in rose tinted glasses with nostalgia, those who do not know history are doomed to repeat it, you get the drill.
Now fast forward decades later. Now we see an ideology seeping forth based on ethnonationalism, (more confusing is the fact that there are nationalists that are also socialists, as in nationalization or workers controlling the means of production directly, albeit only people with a certain amount of melanin in their skin.) with others being more protectionist of the current economic order with helicopter rides(much more closer to economic fascism, since Pinochet also did much of the above while torturing political dissedents.), filled with Facebook frogs and levels or irony that make it hard to pinpoint weather anyone is being serious or not. (it ends up being a joke anyway)
Not helping are people like Antifa who seem to not know these things to much of an extent, and are more concerned about racist rhetoric, both assumed and unassumed, rather than the other very real implications of what some of these people might unironically advocate for. They indiscriminately go after Trump events because there are supposedly a few unironic Nazis there, therefore their actually stopping fascists, because these are people who don't know much of anything, or read any books, so it just ends up being a bunch of edgy liberals beating on memers because they might want enact... deathcamps for nonwhites I guess? As apposed to just liking a guy who's ended up being another neocon/neoliberal who says retarded shit on twitter, and is soaked in TV personality like many of his followers.
Supposedly, Antifa are there just to exist as a vanguard against fascism, by preventing them from organizing, since if they get power, the above stuff I've talked about will be implemented, depending on the brand. As a brief interlude, for those of you concerned with freedom of speech, yes I agree, we should be debating them and it's a nice thought, but allot of people on the far right tend to be so on some level of irrationality(being an incel is one hell of a drug), and there is a certain point and time where it should be done where it is successful to the degree of convincing the onlookers, but there are those who can't be reasoned with, not to mention there's the fact that people have entirely different values from each other. Depends of the people, but this isn't just some disagreement, as these are entirely different ideologies and view of history and the world, that has gone on for decades, not just fought with words, but with bullets, and where the ruling elite benefit more from one than the other. There is a difference between someone who just needs to be reasoned with, and someone who is attempting to organize to physically remove people with the use of the state, and not always because of skin color, mind you, and with righteous conviction to do so. Welcome to real life.
Speaking of a debating Antifa, here's one: http://www.latimes.com/nation/la-na.....017-story.html
Then there's the fact it's a heavily disorganized group that is susceptible from all kinda of others (I wonder who) and obsess over identity politics like SJWs, which seemingly only exist to make the left look like shit, and are a greater damage than anything the right has by just being asses of themselves. To the ones not on any payroll I would suggest READING A FUCKING BOOK! Like our lord of cultural Marxism, Flavoj Zizek says: https://qz.com/896463/is-it-ok-to-p.....-donald-trump/
Luckily in Berkley right now, they seem to be taking this advice by not showing up. As a result, the Trump memers who came there ended up looking pretty cringey all dressed in sports gear LARPing as defenders of the west, and to think only existing because of college kids who lack any sort of ideology other than identity politics (I also wonder why) but seriously, it's pretty pathetic, just obviously not at the level of roving bands of brownshirts quite yet. Maybe another economic crash might see to that though, I mean look at how bad the conditions already are: http://www.independent.co.uk/news/w.....-a7694726.html
In the end having one band of cringlords is bad enough, let alone two, but don't kid yourself in thinking everyone can be swayed with arguments alone all the time, especially as people become more desperate.
