    i'm not saying there isn't room to interrogate the assumptions that go into a given post or joke, but you come across as a massive hypocrite and it makes people not want to listen to you. saying cuck and soy and sigma and all that shit is exactly as normie and internet brained as what i said, and it's not like using the word 'cuck' as an insult isn't just as downward punching and status quo-reinforcing, though obviously in slightly different ways.

      No normie I have ever met on the internet or irl has ever sincerely used the word cuck as an insult and there is a big difference between being a normie and being "internet brained" so to speak. Normies dont have to rely on critical thinking or the internet for that matter because for one reason or another they mostly experience near frictionless social interaction and therefore are never really in a state where they are left to think about things beyond surface level or to spend time scrolling the interwebs such that they pick up this terminology.

      However I understand that "soy" and "cuck" fundamentally play into "dominance hierarchy" analysis that rightoids use no matter how you look at it, i dont have any other terms to describe neoliberals who support capitalist values. I honestly dont care about whether people here listen to me or not, its more about mogging normies and making them feel uncomfortable about the things they take for granted just saying. But I see now how stupid this is and would rather just "focus on myself" instead of engaging in these cucked endeavours talking down to a bunch of people who i can never reach an understanding with anyways about shit that doesnt really matter in the long run.
