Yep, I legit have no beef with anyone that's against the wests manipulation/exploitation of other countries/groups. Just those that would use it as an excuse or reason for others to do the same. Two wrongs don't make a right.

Yeah, ultimately they are just hypocritically anti west. It's never any deeper than that. Even when they try to deflect claiming you haven't read enough theory. It's like brother, have you ever thought critically? I've read most of C.S. Lewis's books of fiction. But I'm not constantly expecting any lions or witches in my wardrobe.

I believe they are using it in the sense of economic liberalism. What today we just call capitalism. Encompassing Republicans, national Democratic leadership, and those that larp as anarchist or libertarian while being capitalist.

You're at 11 when anything more than a 2 or 3 is uncalled for. Neither they nor I are the person you originally replied to. And both probably generally agree with you if my post above is to be believed.

That encapsulates every interaction I've seen from that domain so far. 🤷‍♀️

Because they have been awash in and floating in a sea of pro corporate propaganda for Generations at this point. That they cannot see government as anything but a negative. Government not functioning in their eyes is a good thing.

Even anarchist don't hate government that much.

Not all of us. But yes. And?

Being the developer of a software is one thing. Software is basically a tool. Good or bad is in the use of it. In application his use is bad. But plenty of us see the likely writing in the wall and are making moves accordingly as well.

Nobody picks on Asmon for no reason. Believe me everyone has very good reasons. If I was to try to describe him to a lay person that wasn't already familiar with them. It would be to describe him as like The Joe Rogan of video games if Joe Rogan had ever been actually good as a comedian. Basically the worst most undeserving of a platform person you know that's been given a platform far too big. He is a cornucopia of shit takes, that has at times. Tip-toed around nazism. Although it's been a good 3 or 4 years since I have seriously watched anything of his. So maybe he learned and pulled back or maybe he's only gotten worse.

And that's not even mentioning lower hanging fruits like his hygiene. Calling what he has hygiene is really reaching. It's much more like low-gene. Picking at his nose, at scabs etc etc etc live on camera. Constantly dirty into shovel. Cockroaches crawling over him. It's not that he's poor, doesn't know better, can't do better. Far from. It's an active decision on his part as to how to live. Which is fine people can live how they like as long as they consent. It's fine by me. But if you're going to be judgmental or critical about others. Your flaws are fair game.
