badposting
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

I kinda respect the misanthropy in this thread and I understand why people come to this but I refuse to give up on the potential in the human spirit and inside everyone except in the case of certain individual people
If that ever happens I'm probably gonna
myself
At a certain point the line between "I'm not condemning everybody just individuals" and "I've been immediatly disappointed in 95 out of the last 100 people I've interacted with" becomes fairly indistinguishable
When your day to day is: Oh boy, new contractor, let's not judge a book by its cover maybe this guys decent
"Hey man how's it going"
"Be a lot better if it weren't for all the n-words taking all my money through taxes and that c-word taking the rest of it through child support"
You get beat down fairly quickly
Idk it's not indistinguishable for me. That sounds fucking awful though. I don't know what kind of work you do but I wouldn't take contractors you meet as representative of all of humanity. People are so varied. I've worked in retail so I've had lots of similar experiences but I think it's a mistake and also hurts a lot to generalize what people are like in that specific context to the entire world
Even in retail I met so many good, sweet seeming people who were that way in spite of being abused constantly by management and customers and the capitalist system in general
I don't go into any social situation (at least not anything like a Nazi rally or something lol) expecting to hate everyone I meet but I don't go in expecting to find saints either. I just try to meet people where they're at and find genuine connection
We live in a particularly bad era. I don't think being a shitty person is inherent to anyone. People are also very complex and dynamic social beings and it's usually one-sided to consider anyone as primarily good or primarily bad forever unless they have committed some kind of exceptional acts. Maybe in better conditions we can create (not even just revolutionary conditions but also just being around for people) there is hope for everyone
Maybe I'm just coping because I'm not exactly a paragon of goodness lol
Interactions with people in retail give me hope in humanity but paradoxically reduces my hope in civilisation.
There are still good patient people out there who are doing their best to put up with the bullshit, treat everybody without preconception and trying to make life better for everybody.
Our society has placed them on the lowest rung possible and we regularly get people smugly declaring they don't think they deserve to be paid enough to survive, while those same hateful assholes get to drive home to their gated community and get patted on the back by a bunch of other people who have never done an honest day's work in their life and completely agree with them those workers are lazy and entitled.
And then on the other end I go back to my poor small town community and go by a bunch of "fuck your feelings" flags being flown above confederate flags by people being ground to dust by the same system and never for a second thinking to lay the balme at the feet of those rich useless assholes and instead agreeing with them that we should fuck the working class harder because in their mind that means punishing minorities
Yeahh it's fucking awful
But we do live under the boot of the most evil empire in history (in my case I live inside it even
) so it does make sense
Really fucking hope we can pull out of this civilizational death spiral lol
I feel like you have to interact with those gated community hateful assholes a lot lol
I did for a long time then got to my dream of being able to move back home to that poor rural town.
The people still suck, despite the fact theyre materially the polar opposite of the gated community assholes but now I can wander into the woods and avoid people for a couple days a week.
Hell yeah human spirit
Hell yeah
There are two wolves inside us all
I limit my misanthropy to mere misandry
But who will hold up ~50% of the sky?
Also highly recommend finding some good-weird guys irl, like some furries or something, maybe you'll like them more and find them more interesting
It's worked for me and a even a few non-furries I know
