People who disbelieve cancel culture is a thing do so mainly because they hope they can use it in the future to knock people out of jobs they themselves covet.

Like many movements that originate in the US, it’s all about the perception of a zero sum game and has everything to do with scarce jobs and nothing to do with moral panics or any moral feelings at all.

Here is a good example. This is all about competition for scarce academic jobs — whatever poor thinker wrote this uses an absolutely torturous abuse of reason to argue that firing someone for their views is not an abridgment of academic freedom. It’s absurd, and the amount of words spilled on it alone is enough to demonstrate its falsehood.

Anyway, yes, cancel culture is real, no, liberals cannot believe it’s real because most of them want the jobs they are so busily cancelling people out of.

It won’t work as they expect, but what ever does?

I used to have this attitude of… medical professionals have trained a huge amount, and are very experienced, and it's a bit silly to think I, a rando with access to google, could make better decisions than they could.

Someone in the top 1% intelligence-wise (which Aella definitely is) can out-expert most experts in most fields fairly easily by doing diligent research and studying the latest findings in that field.

Why is this? For someone like Aella, there is no political capture, while experts often get stuck in their ways and have knowledge that is 10-50+ years outdated. This comes with huge caveats, though! You probably cannot do this reliably unless you are in that top 1%, and there are some fields where this is not possible without years of study.

But for anything medical? Yeah, not hard. Anti-vaxxers, though, show what happens when the bottom 99% attempt to out-expert experts, and it’s not pretty.

What’s against my religion is wallowing in your loserdom.

What I’m for is anything that is opposed to loserdom-wallowing. I’m being flip, a bit, but that’s a pretty good summation of what I believe.

This is a perfect example of the only things liberals seem to be able to do is to offer the most cynical, pessimistic possible take on anything. Only then are you seen as being serious.

That is completely risible. It’s just bullshit near-GPT-3 doggerel that under-the-bed-and-wailing libs will take as being obviously true.

Any excuse to take everything away will do for these mooks. They obviously really do get a sexual thrill out of it, sadly enough.

A special treat I have 2-3 times a day. I will eat some bacon in the morning to celebrate.

I love what liberalism has become. Total winners, there.

Microsoft no longer signs Windows drivers for Process Hacker.

Every OS is becoming a walled garden, removing user control. And dipshits really do buy that it’s for “security” and for their own good.

It’s just too easy to hack human’s brains.
