In Which I Cause WF To Strangle Itself TO DEATH.

I always thought you rented an apartment in California for a while. Years ago before you got banned from WF.

Nope. Either you got California and Arizona confused, or you have me mixed up with someone else on that particular data point.

I got bored this evening and decided to just read a couple of threads at WF. It is amazing how just when you think they couldn't possibly crawl up their own asses any more or be more wrong they manage to do so. For example their "Trouble in America" thread which usually features posters praising left wing rioters, sharing half truths about police cases involving black suspects, and conspiracy theories. Eventually their conversation shifted to the Boogaloo Boys who are an anarchist group which identify as "anarcho-capitalist" but, of course, far left sources lie and wrongly claim anarchists are "far right". They are not; they are anarchists or at least a flavor of anarchists.

Boogaloo Boys are an extremist group but they definitely are not "far right" in the classical sense. They want the destruction or abolition of all governments but especially the US government. The groups are loosely organized without official chapters simply united around their "anarcho-capitalist" ideology. The group is multi-ethnic even though left wing reporters often lie and claim the group is some how "white supremacist. Boogaloo Boys prominently took part in BLM and Antifa riots hoping it would lead to revolution and the fall of the government. It is a bit weird to see Anarcho-capitalists working with anarcho-communists but they are both anarchists albeit opposing sides of anarchism.

I wish people would at least try to understand movements before they simply try to label them as something. I get that many of the far leftists at WF and else where desperately want to pretend that theor side isn't the violent ones but they are fooling themselves. There is a reason Boogaloo Boys showed up in mass to help with the BLM and Antifa riots and it wasn't because they were "far right". They were part of the umbrella of anarchists who wanted revolution so decided to be fellow travellers with two other revolutionary groups holding riots.

Frankly, they're fucking idiots with that shit. And they got that way because of the initial spark of stupidity that drove them to run off anyone and everyone inclined to call them on their stupidity.

I almost got sucked into Analcalgon's newest "school shootings mean we need more gun control" thread. Because if only there were some law that said teenagers can't bring guns to school and shoot people this never would've happened. Oh wait. All those things are already illegal. The kid did it anyway. But if we made some more laws, he'd have probably obeyed them. Just like the fine and peaceful citizens of Chicago, Washington DC and similar utopias.

But I knew exactly how effective that post would've been.

Why would he say either that or 'psych'?

Jesus. Y'all like to pretend you're each the smartest person in the room. Protip for ya: Being the smartest person in the room is predicated on being smart, period.

Work on it.

And spend less time in the company of people too chickenshit to call you out when you're not working on it.

Didja see the thread where she pointed out the Liet once called her an "oreo" and the remaining posters there had forgotten all about it so they came to her defense and were about to slag Liet about it (not that he actually posts there anymore, but that hasn't stopped a thread about Storm being the most active discussion there--anyhow...) at this point she explained that she was actually grateful to Liet for pointing out how foolish it was for her to think she, as a black woman, could ever be equal to white males on the basis of merit and competence? Now she understands any failings she has are Not Her Fault because the White Man is keeping her Down. :marathon:

Meanwhile the cannibalism continues--oh, almost forgot, apart from Storm, the next most active thread is Bick going after Paladin, but to be fair most of these threads descend into cannibalism anyway. But right now Tererun and Lil' Dicky are going at each other because Lil' Dicky sorry-not-sorry tried to get tranny Terry banned for using the word "tranny." And Lil' Dicky is trying to play it all off that he was making a joke and was misunderstood. :marathon:

In conclusion, there's no need to make WF strangle itself to death, it's doing just fine without any help.

Think of making them paranoid that every new poster is actually me as the equivalent to forcing them to bolt the doors from the inside.

While the house is on fire.

Yes, the house being on fire is their doing.

But I like to think that by causing them to starve themselves of more fuel, I'm just Doing My Part. ;)

It's always been interesting to me to see how the internet and its algorithms have shaped culture over the last 30 years, especially the past 10. Locking people into a brainwashed status in which anyone who might think slightly differently than you is the enemy and such. It's not just on WF, it's everywhere. "Social Media" is the worst offender. Most of the time I sit back and laugh like that pinwheel alien thing from TOS Day of the Dove, but that's just me. I can take a joke.

Now, someone should start a poll as to which WF member has most succumbed to this behavior.
 

The Question

The one who's declined most noticeably in that corrosive environment, IMO, is Lanz.

Oh I'm not going to go out of my way to change anyone's opinion about anything, it's impossible now. All I'm saying is, you know, go outside once in awhile. Meet real people. Most might find things aren't as terrible as they're presumed to be, but lacking that at least they'll get away from the toxic shit that Facebook and its ilk hammer down their throats 24/7.

All the tame conservatives are interesting to me. Lanz, Paladin, Forbin... Living in places like DC, coastal California, and New Jersey, they already have to hide their views and opinions in order to keep their lives livable. And they seem to think that "if I only compromise and recognize opposing views, they'll reciprocate." Nope. Liberals see compromise and acceptance as a sign of weakness. If you have a chance to stomp them and you instead help them up, they resent you. Because they'd absolutely stomp you if the positions were reversed. There's a statue of Lenin in Seattle. Point out that it is a disgusting offense that has no place being on display in America and lefties will say "no one is forcing you to like it; freedom of speech." But they'll immediately tear down a statue of that horrible, horrible racist, Abraham Lincoln if given the chance. Because "hate has no place in our society." And some of these people...Personally, I don't believe in gaslighting. If you use facts and logic to persuade someone to change their views, that isn't gaslighting. And if someone is just systematically lying to you to change your views, you should be smart enough to stop listening to them. Yeah, it sucks in this day and age. ABC was pretty much the last objective network that I respected--about 5 years ago. Now it's worse than CBS in many regards. Pretty soon I'll be stuck wearing Wrangler jeans and...I dunno, Asics sneakers while listening to country music and going to NASCAR because Nike, Levis, pro sports, and pretty much all other entertainment actively uses any dollars I give them against me, trying to take away my freedom and tell me how to think.
