the IQ meme, except it's every video essay about popular media, and the center is correct because because the far ends are grifts.

okay. but is it enforcible?

I had no clue Monkey Wrench was so low! I haven't even heard of most of these.

we have left wing people; just no one who is so far left they'd commit fucking terrorism because of it.

The Ass is the father of the legs @internethippo.bsky.social · 10h

One of the reasons they're having trouble concocting a Left Wing Terrorism epidemic is basically nobody in this country has ever met a left wing person. You might as well say we're being invaded by the smurfs

I consider people on Bluesky who refuse to vote Democrat because Democrats are too right wing, to be left wing people. after all, our two party system is basically center vs. far right at the time being. left wing terrorists though... I don't think we have anyone that far left?

whenever #GhostofYotei comes to PC, the first mod we need is a "friendly bears" mod which makes all bears friendly.

I'm honestly so bad at research, someone replied with a jumble of threads to answer my question, and I couldn't sort through the info.

Bondforged Zoob @zoobmer.bsky.social · 16h

wild this is getting likes since I'm pretty sure I'm on multiple blocklists for insisting this is typical horrors of war. 🥴

there are 5 times as many accounts who have blocked as accounts who follow me.

To be fair, I cannot think of a more fitting image of America than "racism, religion and fast food"

Apropos of nothing, Sec. Kristi Noem is currently praying over Burgerville with Portland ICE officials.

A screenshot of a video of Noem praying at a conference table with other people wearing suits. Fast food bags and water bottles sit on the table.

it comes down to who can afford the most publicity; which is never who is actually best.

Bondforged Zoob @zoobmer.bsky.social · 1d

typical horrors of war TBH. USA politicians don't care how many innocents get hurt; all they care about is that their political ally is victorious.

the names he gives his children range from just as bad to leagues worse.

come to think of it, am I endangering my own livelyhood by simply saying Trump is a tyrant?

Bondforged Zoob @zoobmer.bsky.social · 1d

man, every politician and business executive folding to MAGA bullshit is so tiring! they know Trump will try to retaliate because he is a tyrant, so they don't even try to resist.

Bondforged Zoob @zoobmer.bsky.social · 1d

what are these posts even about? trying to decipher the news from a bunch of tweets which assume everyone already knows said news is exsaughsting.

all good people do unethical things. actual cancel culture is erasing all of a person's virtues over even a single vice.

Christina Holland @mortalwombat.info · 1d

I don't get why people twist themselves into pretzels to definitively say if someone is "good now" or "bad now" before discussing what they did now, like Gavin Newsom. Just say "what he just did is good" or "what he just did is bad," you don't have to enter a score for him, it's not a required field

not that I'm complaining, but how come she took her shoes off?

Bondforged Zoob @zoobmer.bsky.social · 1d

made this meme after randomly clicking a Hololive singing video once.

Bondforged Zoob @zoobmer.bsky.social · 1d

now if only people would actually post the news instead of subposting about the news, assuming their audience knows the news which is the context for the post. getting tired of using this reaction every time there is a news story and all I know is that I don't know the story.

someone should invent a machine to do that, honestly. I wonder why no one has?

Bondforged Zoob @zoobmer.bsky.social · 1d

me: the fact we can entertain the idea of no one living in poverty is a testiment to advancements in societal conditions over the centuries. no one would say such a thing in Medieval Times!

Bondforged Zoob @zoobmer.bsky.social · 1d

he really does a good job framing himself as the good guy here; would have fooled me if I didn't already know the "terrorism" he's talking about is fighting against facism.
