          I said what I said

          To me, the Picrew avi says, "I'm going to lecture you about issues of social justice. Also I secretly work at Lockheed Martin"

                As am I, and can remember when a very popular malevolent white girl sic'd her hordes of three-nos on queer spaces explicitly not meant for them with picrews; so this whole "hating picrews is just proxy-homophobia" is setting off all the alarm klaxons

                  Plenty of queer people hated on Guardian Spice when it came out because it was the hip new thing

                  Sorry fam, I have no idea what this is aside from the brief Google search I just did and even less idea what the discourse around it is

                  All I know is that whenever I see a Picrew avi, I'm likely to see the most dogshit take next to it (see above). It's not that I think it's like cringe in itself or whatever. Anecdotal evidence to be sure, but there you have it.

                  And what's your point? (Some) queer people like them? So what? A lot of queer people like Pete Buttigieg and being racist on Grindr

      I've started writing off all picrew avatars as fake queers, Langley inhabitants, and NAFO dogs at this point. Feels real three-nos, keffals, blahaj.zone adjacent.

        Refreshing that you can finally admit that the psyops taste like psyops. Their #1 problem is (for them), they fade out of cultural relevance so easily and immediately get re-examined in hindsight at which point people notice the soullessness of it all and think "hey what the fuck who put this con artist on my timeline"

      It's just pure contrarianism. It's like they ran an algorithm to decide what will be the least popular political takes and out spits that abomination.

    When someone has this combination of emojis I assume they're a cryptonazi. It's esoteric behaviour and combining mass amounts of shit together into a confusing mess in a deliberate way that seems to intentionally be confusing for the sake of it. When a person does that I assume it's because they think they're cleverly hiding something behind the confusing convoluted soup of ideology they've concocted.

    And they say we are the ones who will use any means necessary to force communism onto people. Thank you neo-liberals, I just hate you more.

    state ideologies

    anarcho-neoliberals literally believe overthrowing Ukraine's president for finance imperialist corpos to have free markets is revolutionary and actual Marxism unlike "Stalinist authoritarian regulations". Biden is CRUEL and RACIST to stop Mexicans from crossing the border to sell blood! SMASH THE STATE!!!

    Why do neolibs talk as if they aren't disenfranchised? This brunch-goer is a citizen of an aggressive country speaking as if he is one of the .1% making decisions instead of what he would be if this "thought" was taken seriously by someone who was: some poor bastard at the bottom of the rubble.

    Since it is so pervasive among them, do you suppose they learn this attitude from the tone of the articles they read? I keep trying to come up with an analogue for it. Like picking up the tab at dinner with friends when you can't afford it? You know what i mean?

      If you align your beliefs with those in power, you can fool yourself into thinking you aren't disenfranchised.

          It's not, but it makes them feel like they have more agency than they do. That's really what it comes down to. Fitting into a corporate culture to keep a job and lying to yourself that this is all fine.

      Their favorite Prestige TV treats feature Adults In The Room that Make The Hard Decisions and Get Shit Done. Just like picking their Hogwarts house, they also decide which Adults In The Room they identify with and just go with that.
