When I was a teenager around my daughter’s age, pre 9/11, this kind of future was the kind of thing you would see in a ridiculous 80s dystopian action movie. We didn’t ever think we’d actually ever allow it to get that far as a society, surely we wild rise up to oppose. It’s just wild to my old ass how far we have fallen and how much people just shrug.
I was watching the Netflix hunt for Osama docuseries. And Bin Laden totally won. After 9/11 the US turned on its own people and used the modern technology of the military to set up a mass surveillance system and a way to easily do shit like this. And people allowed it while chanting “USA!” This is all part of it.
On a side note, i can’t wait till The Running Man becomes Reality once Trump starts throwing migrants into a life or death reality show where they’re hunted by neo Nazi ice agents
Where is all the outrage for word switching here?
The master/main folks are sure silent.
Or the male/female folks vs plug and socket?
I don't think anybody was against master/slave over primary/secondary.
I think the difference is that those are reasonable and come from within the community of use. Even if a loud minority acted up for a few days.
The examples in the post are just silly and are forced onto the community of use by political overlords.
wake up babe, new politically correct has dropped
literally PC culture gone mad
Yeah that's what happens when "science" is based on capitalism, fascism, etc. It's just more explicit now.
God, that's so right-woke.
Wait I thought it was Woke that was supposed to be policing what language we used?
Something, something, every accusation, a confession
Male and non-male
Lmao
Actually more inclusive terminology lol
I think the male is a bit hostile and problematic too. It should be non-male and non-female
Can't use the word female in any context so it would have to be non-male and non-non-male.
I prefer "those who is" and "those who ain't." Binary and inclusive.
Is you is, or is you ain't my baby.
I watched an interesting video recently on "Lysenkoism".
In short, it's a horrible example of what happens when party politics are more important than correct science. And it should all feel very familiar to what's happening in the US right now.
F me, the parallels are unreal.
Me trying to get grants for my rat trebuchet
Is it operated by rats or throwing rats?
Yes
Trebuchet of the rats, by the rats, for the rats.
Lowers binoculars and looks at my fellow Imperial gunners
See them? The rats are up to something.
I have two pet rats, and I'm pretty confident that they'd love a trebuchet. I could see one of them operating while the other is the ammunition.
Or, both operating with more conventional projectiles. Rats crave destruction and chaos. And also cuddles.
Brilliant i say Brilliant
