badposting is a comm where you post badly
This is not a [email protected] alternative. This is not a [email protected] alternative. This is a place for you to post your bad posts.
Ever had a really shitty bit idea? Joke you want to take way past the point of where it was funny? Want to feel like a stand-up comedy guy who's been bombing a set for the past 30 minutes straight and at this point is just saying shit to see if people react to it? Really bad pun? A homemade cringe concoction? A cognitohazard that you have birthed into this world and have an urge to spread like chain mail?
Rules:
- Do not post good posts.
- Unauthorized goodposting is to be punished in the manner of commenting the phrase "GOOD post" followed by an emoji that has not yet been used in the thread
- Use an emoticon/kaomoji/rule-three-abiding ASCII art if the rations run out
- This is not a comm where you direct people to other people's bad posts. This is a comm where you post badly.
- This rule intentionally left blank.
- If you're struck for rule 3, skill issue, not allowed to complain about it.
Code of Conduct applies just as much here as it does everywhere else. Technically, CoC violations are bad posts. On the other hand: L + ratio + get ~~better~~ worse material bozo

People suck because they imitate authority figures. Like with covid, if a ramdom person sees the goverment does not give a shit. They dont give a shit either. Then again even in china some asholes were protesting against quarentines, so i guess there are some people who should get the wall, but overall, most of the assholes would be ok people in a different system.
I think that's all true to a degree but that still means a lot of people are really shallow and suck at doing any critical thinking. And again I wanna blame it on education but I've met people who went to good school, are well read and seem pretty knowledgeable about various things who will still drop the absolute worst fucking takes about certain things and I'm just like, I don't think any amount of reeducation is gonna help you bro.
I agree education is not as important. Most peopple learn by imitation. And the system edges us on towards certain paths, again during covid they made it hard to keep proper behaibiours lile mask use. So people gave up. Once enough people stoped masking being an ashole became the new normal due to imitation. But in some countries were their goverments paid more atention people are still masking. Not everyone but a majority or at least a large plurality.
This and then there's the stigma, taboo & hegemony of it all. Just saw a post where a person who would call themselves aware and progressive stated having "the weirdest flu" for two weeks and then went on listing all the textbook covid symptoms from sore throat to sob.
It's like people choose to be programmed to ignore the obvious, it's infuriating.
This same repeats in everything: I got into an argument with an environmentalist the other day who first ranted about the right wing & fascism and then his blog post had overpopulation brain worms in it. I asked him about this and provided several links on how he is in fact promoting ecofascism and as the dude refuses to denounce capitalism as a system, he was entirely unable to see the issue.
The sad bit is that this is most people. But tech bros are still the most annoying for me. Regardless of age.
Or say its allergies. Because of this i think long covid is way more common than reported but people just ignore it because admiting it would be too much of a psychological burden.
As for techbros, its like a cargo cult. They sure are anyoing. And that is one set of assholes that are entierly a product of social conditioning.
