“Simply not understand” what? You don’t actually make a point outside of “people should all die because I’m Chaotic Neutral”. Which is both a non sequitur and, as I said at first, very unhealthy.

Again, you probably want to take this up with a counselor or something. “Chaotic Neutral” isn’t a term that has any meaning outside of a specific style of game. You are now reaching for game terminology to talk about killing all human beings with engineered diseases.

While you’re at it, put your analyst on danger money.

Music. Specifically woodwinds. Because I like them.

The answer might be—and I’m being serious here, not flippant—consulting with a psychologist or psychiatrist. You’ve gone from thinking all humans should be killed to thinking all life should be killed at the drop of a hat. This is not healthy.

Very casual, this is.

And when you get the inevitable people saying “That’s not the Nazi salute!”, here’s Hitler disagreeing with them:

Hitler disagrees:

People keep asking when the Apartheid Manchild turned this way. I maintain that he was always this way and is now just comfortable expressing it. But I think, too, the increasingly erratic behaviour has a cause.

Look up the list of symptoms of ketamine abuse.

Now look up the increasingly bizarre behaviour of the Apartheid Manchild.

There are intriguing parallels. Right down to the paranoia.

It helps having a sapphire mine worked by veritable (almost literal) slaves in your youth.

The funny thing is that the Roman salute isn’t Roman as far as anybody knows. That was something Mussolini claimed based on a single picture of unclear context and adopted as his own under his “restoring the Roman Empire” schtick.

Then Hitler stole it from him for the Third Reich.

Nailed it.

Could people please just read a little bit of history before commenting on it? Please?

Yes, the full formal name of the Nazi party was Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei (National Socialist German Workers’ Party). Yes that name has “socialist” in it.

But you know what? North Korea is the 조선민주주의인민공화국 (Democratic People’s Republic of Korea). Are we to take it as read, then, that you think North Korea is democratic? (Or that it gives a shit about the People?) No?

Extrapolate that to the Nazis.

It’s well known in history circles that extend one micro-step away from simplistic high school history that the word “socialist” was put into the Nazi Party’s name because they were trying, in their early days, to siphon members from other socialist groups. This is called “branding”. You label yourself in ways that makes you sound like what people want, get them on your side, then turn into what you want. Do you want another example for a political party instead of a nation? Canada’s old “Progressive Conservative Party of Canada” would be a case in point. I mean the name is a literal contradiction in terms, but I guess because it says “progressive” they must have been a progressive party, right? RIGHT!?

Here are a few more names that are flat-out lies:

• Liberal Democratic Party of Russia (neither liberal, nor democratic)
• Democratic Republic of the Congo (just like the DPRK, this place isn’t even remotely democratic)
• The United States Taxpayers Party (now Constitution Party, was never about Taxpayers and always about what would now be alt-right policies)
• The Sustainable Australia Party (named like it’s about the environment, is really anti-immigration)
• The American Independent Party (named to fool people into thinking they’re registering as independents, but is really a far right party)
• The Social Democratic Party (sounds left-wing, but is really centrists who broke off from the UK’s Labour Party)

That list could go on for a very long time, but I hope by now you can understand how anybody who actually opened a history book would laugh at “the socialist part”.

And yet I just uploaded video of HITLER touching his heart before raising his hand. Looks like your Google skills kind of suck.

I’ll start.

Huh. Apparently, according to HITLER (who is presumably a recognized authority), one does, in fact, touch one’s heart before raising the arm like that.

Any more lies to spread?

Propose alternatives. I’m not especially fond of the labels either (especially since the “left” in the USA is “right centrist” in Canada or “borderline Nazi” in most sane places in the world; left/right is very relative), but it’s the terminology that’s used and when communicating you either use the extant terminology or you spend most of your time defining and redefining your terms in every message you post (and still get people mapping it to “left” and “right” anyway).

Oh, I have absolutely no trouble believing the progressive left lost to idiots. This is because I think the progressive left (esp. in the USA, but also in Canada and the UK, and only slightly less so most of Europe) are even worse.

Historically it has been labour that has been the core (and the shock troops) of the left. Labour spilled its blood for rights. Labour had the power, when organized, to shut down the wealthy. Can you guess who the “progressives” in the anglosphere (and to a lesser extent in Europe) have been alienating? (Hint: it’s the dumbest possible group for leftists to alienate.)

The progressive left also has problems making a compelling narrative to counter the lying narratives of the right. During Brexit, for example, the right had a (bullshit-infused) narrative of how there was going to be a shining city on the hill if only the chains of the European Parliament weren’t dragging Britain down. It was all bullshit, of course. Their numbers were fantasy. Their stories ranged from being just plain wrong to flat-out lines. But the key is they had a story. They had a vision. And they sold it well.

The progressive left had only one consistent and heartfelt message: “If you vote Leave you’re a racist.”

Shockingly this didn’t prevent people from voting Leave, and given the rather sharp spike in searches on “what does Brexit mean?”-style queries on search engines immediately after Brexit won, it was pretty clear people weren’t voting for Brexit but rather against the Remain side. This is such a wet slap that it should have woken all thoughtful progressives and made them rethink their strategy. Sadly there’s not a lot of thoughtful progressives because just a short time later the Trump thing happened and the campaign against Trump only had one consistent and heartfelt message: “Vote for Hilary or you’re a racist misogynist.” (Maybe they thought adding a word would make a compelling vision?)

Of course there’s a reason why the progressive movement hasn’t been able to make a coherent vision: they haven’t got one. They’re very clear on what they’re against in their little infighting camps, but they have zero compelling vision for how to move forward. There’s no motivation. “Trans rights”, while important, are not the foundation for a society or government. No variant of “<insert group> rights” is going to motivate people to vote for you unless you’re in that little specific group. And while the progressive movement focuses on these micro scale things (which I again stress are important, just not a solid foundation for governance), the right has its hate-fuelled, lie-infused, but actually present narrative without any coherent counter to it.

So yes, I’m very comfortable recognizing that the progressive left just lost to a bunch of idiots. Because they’re even worse in aggregate.

Maturity.

One of the most disturbing things we did was create thousands of fake accounts using advanced AI systems called Grok and Eliza.

It’s not true.

Eliza? Really!? Give me a break!

I’m thinking there’s other reasons for the hatred, personally.

Like how you’re reducing everything to “I didn’t support the Democrats” on a platform with a sizable population of people who don’t give two flying fucks which facet of the Plutocrat Party is running the USA.
