Yea I know about it but you can’t make any of the modern memes with it. It only supports top and bottom text memes, which have been outdated for a couple of years now.

Need to rewatch this show at some point. Daria is so ratable

Why is it in Arabic though ? It says something like “undefeated… Unbroken” in Arabic

Because I don’t have any friends

I never claimed Trump never said stupid shit, but there are many instances where it’s so clickbaity which actually really helps Trump and his supporters. The appeal of Trump is that he posits himself as persecuted by the “woke mob” and “radical left”. He also depicted as someone “saying it as it is” and saying what the “establishment” doesn’t want you to say. There’s some theoretical work that studies how this happens, and I think many leftists rarely pose the hard question of why he is having a mass appeal. It’s not sufficient to just say “people bad and racist” and move on. The modern right succeeded in tricking everyone into seeing the left as this policing and hegemonic force out there trying to force you to say the right thing. It’s so ironic given that the right is the actual hegemonic and moralize force. The trick that they pulled is spectacular tbh and usually the left plays right into their hsnds. The fact that Trump says bad shit is not gonna harm him. That’s his entire appeal. It’s funny that leftist media thinks the more they show he said bad shit the more unlikely he’ll be supported. It’s the exact opposite. It’s the classic childish tragressive thing of “I am gonna say exactly what they want me not to say”. We are in the age of the “rebel punk” right, which is so fuckin ironic. Of course it’s not rebel or punk but they are formally in that positionz while the leftist is cast as the polished professor telling you what to say and what not to say. You can easily see the appeal of the right if you look at it this way, and see how this “trump said a bad thing” is exactly why he is popular.

I don’t think it’s the content of what he is saying that his supporters are drawn to. Trump has succeeded in positing himself as a victim of the “woke left” and the “establishment”. His entire project relies on this vehement opposition. He actually needs the political correctness because his opposition to it is what sustains him. There are theoretical studies of this, like for example Todd McGowan theory of left and right enjoyment. The enjoyment of the right is this enjoyment of transgression, the utterly childish thing of “I am gonna say exactly what you tell me not to say”. The more dumb shit he says the more it goes up. This is what some leftists do not get. You’ll never defeat Trump by showing that he said something bad and "transgressive ". This is exactly his appeal. The right succeeds in making a weird move. They cast the leftist as the “parent figure” that’s out there trying to steal your enjoyment. “You can’t say anything anymore these days”. Ironically the right is the moralizing position, but they succeeded in casting the left as this moralizing figure and we play right into their hands. The early leftist transgressive “hippy” figure has been replaced, in popular imagination, by the uptight professor telling you what you can and can’t say, and you saying it anyway and bonding with the class through that very prohibition.

The media is milking the Trump hysteria for all its worth. The headline is usually “omg Trump said this bad bad thing” but if you see what he says it’s usually nothing. Don’t get me wrong, he does say some dumb shit but it’s insane how they jump on every word he says. Recently I saw the headline of him commenting about a shooting and saying it’s a tragedy and we should move on, which is awkward but could easily have been said by anyone. The move on part is usually said in tragedies as well. But it’s depicted as if he said “omg just move on already” I am actually a leftist and I don’t like Trump but this is absolutely insane.

Is Logseq FOSS ?

Simple Mobile Tools have been forked by one of the maintainers. They have released the Gallery and File Manager so far. Check out their github : https://github.com/FossifyOrg

Have you looked in Audiobookbay ?

Well, they actually warned and desuaded Israel from a greater conflict. The tone they used was more direct, and harsher than anything they said when Israel is killing thousand of children.

Well, for example the US immediately scrambled to talk to Lebanon and work to actually avoid a war in Lebanon. They can immediately put pressure when they want to. The idea that they are helpless is just used to justify what they are doing now and throw smoke in the eyes as to their guilt and complicity.

They can do much much more when they want to.

This is basically the plot of “Brave New World”

Thank you! This looks great. I’ll give it a try

Thank you! I am on Sway but I’ll take a look at this. I didn’t know there were premade userChrome themes. This is awesome

Alpha man ? As in the release before all the bug fixes ?

I agree to an extent. I understand your analogy but I think there’s a crucial difference between ads for a product and political positions. You can easily get someone to buy a product, but getting someone to change their views on, say, abortion is much harder. Political positions are tied to identities in ways that purchasing decisions are generally not. There may be some ways to sway some people who are on the fense about a given candidate or position, but I generally think this ability to change people is way overstated. People just keep posting their opinions over and over and think it’s actually changing someone’s mind, more often they are preaching to people who already agree with them.

Ok I can accept that. I am not speaking about her personally but about many people on the revolutionary left who stay on there and spend 90 percent of the time complaining about what Elon Musk did or said. There’s something wrong with this “politics of negativity”, where the very apparent opposition you have to something is what ultimately fuels it. It’s ironic in a sense. A post complaining about Elon Musk is ultimately creating money for Elon Musk. The apparent discourse and the latent effect are diametrically opposed.
