Are you familiar with the "humans are eusocial" hypothesis for how sex/gender works in Star Wars? www.maxgladstone.com/2013/10/star...
Star Wars: A Long Time Ago, in a Hive Far Far Away? - max gladstone
There are no humans in Star Wars. This should be obvious from the title card.  We’re a long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away.  Human beings evolved on this planet, Sol 3, over the last sixty millio...

It may seem at first glance that this administration consists of putrid cretinous ghouls who get off on murder for the sake of murder. but that's just what they WANT you to think!! keep your eyes open!!

Arguably it is and we call it "holding elected office"

Oh? I think "No Kings" has worked well, no? Maybe just distinct because it's not a Democratic Party slogan

dems should start saying that presidential pardons dont apply to international war crimes and in fact implicate the president, no idea if thats true but they should start saying it

The idea is to treat woke as a rich and complex thing, with good and bad aspects

I think it attributes to Woke 1 a handful of successes but doesn't present an argument that the movement "won"

The entry of overt bigotry is seen as its own thing that happened for semiiindependent reasons, not as the result of Woke 1's success

The single worst moment of Tar was the scene with the woke kid who is basically made entirely from cardboard

Tar is overall a great work of wokeness (laudatory)

Actually, I may have responded too soon and now I'm seeing that by "tenor" you're perhaps talking more about how Woke 1 didn't just attack everyone's racist uncles from the get-go (even though they definitely felt attacked). Hmm.

And it certainly isn't the fault of the most annoying people on Tumblr that the vast majority of conservatives who insisted that structural racism was fake/overblown but they'd stand up against real racism did no such thing. Trump is a powerful forcing function and the results are revealing.

I think you could retroactively plop groypers (ick) into the Bush administration and the result would be a burst of initial scandal followed by a similar kind of quiet acceptance

I'm skeptical it's because of this rather than because of brazenness

Like, the fundamental issue isn't exactly "you sound like a conspiratorial loon" but that the people whose job is to normalize "Yes, this is a Big Deal" basically gave up after the Access Hollywood tape failed to bring Trump down

The tenor of the thread is absolutely not that it succeeded

Yes

That person would also be the maximal leftist

I guess I'm saying that American Christianity only rarely "knows its place" and this is just naturally downstream of the evangelical quality of Christianity. Occasionally you get a group like the Amish or whatever, but it's the exception and not the rule
December 1, 2025 at 1:45 PM
Hmm, I'm not sure that coheres logically. If something is good then it's good for everyone and if there are exceptions then the exceptions should be incorporated into the worldview, like the part of the drug commercial where they say it's not for anyone pregnant etc
December 1, 2025 at 1:45 PM
Hmm, which thought experiments? I'm missing something
December 1, 2025 at 1:37 PM
This is true: all imperfect humans are just less than maximally liberal
