The dictatorship, and the whole process of its coming into being, was above all diverting. It provided an excuse not to think for people who did not want to think anyway. I do not speak of your ‘little men,’ your baker and so on; I speak of my colleagues and myself, learned men, mind you. Most of us did not want to think about fundamental things and never had. There was no need to. Nazism gave us some dreadful, fundamental things to think about—we were decent people—and kept us so busy with continuous changes and ‘crises’ and so fascinated, yes, fascinated, by the machinations of the ‘national enemies,’ without and within, that we had no time to think about these dreadful things that were growing, little by little, all around us. Unconsciously, I suppose, we were grateful. Who wants to think?
“They thought they were free” by Milton Mayer.
Do you feel the same about names?
Based If yes. If no, cringe.
If there is one irreplaceable content network, it’s youtube. The amount of quality shit you can watch there for free is insane.
Thanks! I’ve only seen two of those, will check them out for sure. Severance especially looks right up my ally.
Very fair. Resonates with me somewhat, tho I still come to the anime well for comfort vibes.
What kind of shows do you watch instead, care to recommend some?
Immortality+invulnarability has to break physics somehow. Use that loophole to extract energy and build an entire civilization around yourself.
Be the immortal sun god of the endtimes.
Will probably be fun for a few trillion years.
Any particular reason why?
You can give LLM some API endpoints for it to “do” thing. Will it be intelligent or coherent, that’s a different question, but it will have agency…
This isn’t a binary. You can oppose absolutism, revolutionary terror and the current neoliberal status quo all at the same time.
Happy twitter is dying. For awhile I though modern society will take anything from fascists, but maybe there’re still some lines normies won’t cross.
And yea bluesky is just infant twitter, but it’s like vaping: may be not great for you but hella better than smoking.
Femboys are not just about being able to use their tools for the things you want.
