Blakey [he/him]

you’re probably right, I’m starting to come around on the subject

I’m assuming there’s actually three Johns allowed and OP correctly feels no one should be able to not choose him

I have no idea who they are which is probably for the best

They are absolutely right to hate the subreddit, it’s just that the reasons they hated it were pathetic. The weird shit Nick Mullen said guesting on Chapo after the sub was banned was a bit of a final straw for me. Just incredibly clear that Will, at least, had completely lost touch with what the project had been at that point.

I have been bamboozled.

…are there kids in your neighbourhood who regularly dress like that? What I’m saying is, what are the odds someone is doing a bit? An unfunny and bad bit, sure, but still

I can’t believe we’re getting the “closing the sub for a joke isn’t okay” struggle session ityool 2024

oh no not extreme emotional distress for the <checks notes> genocide weapon manufacturers??!

Seriously, we live in such a stupid, evil timeline. I hate it.

Saw an interesting take on this recently. Rowling decided it would be great to have her hero emancipate a slave, but she’s so dedicated to neoliberalism that literally any systemic change - even ending the slavery of imaginary beings in her pretend universe - is unthinkable. So we end up with “uh actually they just like being slaves, it’s part of their nature”. But because she’s completely invested in white supremacy and neoliberalism she can’t even see how fucked up that is.

But also fuck you, illuminate

Haha. I remember digging up the last post will made on /CTH and it was some fucking dire stuff. Someone commented something pretty milquetoast about not liking to pay money for a left wing podcast only for the hosts to have a guy on talking about his reviews of fast food restaurants and will lost his fucking shit. It wasn’t like it was a bunch of people dunking on him, or even that the one commenter was being particularly harsh. He was just for whatever reason feeling especially thin-skinned that day.

it isn’t okay to close the sub for a joke.

Oh my god, I’ve left this account basically idle since the sub was banned (as it should have been but for the wrong reasons, as I predicted) and haven’t seen the volcel police in a long time. Good (?) shit.

Ewww.

Thanks, much appreciated!

of course, how could I forget

65-70 years? Quick bit of research suggests the region came under the control of imperial china in the 18th century? These people are always so, so illiterate.

Fuck. New copypasta detected. This is a work of fucking art.

It would also be the end of comedy because the funniest possible thing would have already happened.

I guess since he sucks it’s now bad that he killed a POS ceo and demonstrated that the bourgeoisie aren’t invincible.
