Have a sneer percolating in your system but not enough time/energy to make a whole post about it? Go forth and be mid!

Any awful.systems sub may be subsneered in this subthread, techtakes or no.

If your sneer seems higher quality than you thought, feel free to cut’n’paste it into its own post, there’s no quota for posting and the bar really isn’t that high

The post Xitter web has spawned soo many “esoteric” right wing freaks, but there’s no appropriate sneer-space for them. I’m talking redscare-ish, reality challenged “culture critics” who write about everything but understand nothing. I’m talking about reply-guys who make the same 6 tweets about the same 3 subjects. They’re inescapable at this point, yet I don’t see them mocked (as much as they should be)
Like, there was one dude a while back who insisted that women couldn’t be surgeons because they didn’t believe in the moon or in stars? I think each and every one of these guys is uniquely fucked up and if I can’t escape them, I would love to sneer at them.

The anzacs are venerated for being thrown into the meat grinder by accident, them being fodder for an AI chatbot is what they would have wanted

As triumphalist national myths go, this one being "yeah, we lost so fuckin badly" has always struck me as inherently hilarious

Not only did we get fuckin stomped, we did it with a smile on our face for Mummy Britannia. We’re a nation of subs!

nation of subs surely would handle procurement of Collins-class replacement better, 15? years on and no new submarines delivered, only thing it did was to annoy french

or maybe just add "humiliation" to the list of kinks and go on

Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.
