  • Like a child, if you provide some reason for why something should be avoided, negations work better.

    I.e. "DONT WALK (because cars are about to enter the intersection at velocities that will kill you)"

    Jailbreaking just takes this to an extreme by babbling to the point of brainwashing.

  • > Often when someone, especially a comedian, complains about “political correctness”, what they actually mean is: nobody is laughing at the same joke I told 20 years ago

    Don't rephrase others' sentiments to suit your own narrative. Soothsayers are bullshitters.

    When comedians complain about political correctness, there is no alternate meaning. They are upset that they can't tell the same jokes they told 20 years ago, to the same audiences from 20 years ago that continue to enjoy them, because external forces mob, heckle, and harass them so they cannot serve their customers...

    ...which conveniently provides opportunities for those younger people to "build great careers," by eliminating all legacy competition.

    In any other context it'd be driving the local kebab shop owner out of town because someone with influence wants to open a salad bar in its place.

    It's mob rule, not "social justice."

  • This was about Elon's "Nazi salute" and both so incorrect and blatantly astroturfed I haven't returned to Reddit out of disgust.

    A ton of near-dead subreddits with no activity and no reason to link to x.com for any reason suddenly had thousands of people show up demanding links to x.com be blocked like it's an everyday problem for the sub.

    The quiet beneficiary of this campaign are those who benefit from Reddit's groomed narrative and their competing platform Bluesky.

  • Those are old accounts that were stolen by large-scale password spraying attacks. I've lost a few to this.

  • What does this sort of wordplay ever add to any conversation? The topic is small towns in Japan, not a survey of Jewish complaints from 100 years ago.
