the point of this genre of scolding pedantism is and always was the institution and reproduction of a flagellant class seeking indulgence from the moral superhunans who deign to enlighten them, and not any sort of material change in circumstance

Fucking pedantism from the imperial core where everyone’s convinced they bear the light of democracy is what Americans think international solidarity is. Like their shit don’t stink.

I'd recommend studying speciesism before you purport mantras.
But thanks for trying out pedantism.

For example, critiques of your anti-Semitism imprinted into your anonymous ID is not pedantism. You should be jailed for decades for that, and no one would care if the capital punishment were chosen instead.

Yeah, nerds have always been nerds.
It just that the pedantism is more visible just because instead of being confined to a fanzine it's in forums, yt vids, and across social media.

But the original Nazis particularly targeted Jews for extermination, where modern US Nazis target Muslim and Hispanic people. Nitpicking Ilhan Omar on this point isn't pedantism: it's masturbation.

Recently made a joke about the UK not being part of Europe on here and the amount of aggrieved pedantism was wild
Everyone knows how bad Brexit it. Regular people feel the pain of that self own day to day. And it won’t change anything -there’s been no meaningful movement in the UK to reverse course

The UK is losing up to £250m a day in lost tax revenue due to the economic impact of Brexit, House of Commons Library analysis for the Lib Dems suggests.
Brexit has blown a "black hole of [up to] £90 billion a year in the public finances" the party says. Even under lower estimates the hit is ~£65bn

🕸️ I agree it's fucked up to us from our point of view, but it's a children's franchise. To call them things for adults is just inaccurate.
I'm not saying anything -against- you or anyone else here. Just a fixation on pedantism more than anything.

while this would definitely counteract the pedantism, I think it would also catapult me into hitherto unseen territories of cringe (thank you for the suggestion, it made me laugh very hard)

Wanting to make one of my stupid comics based on Neil and Tom's BG3 stream tonight. But I must first ensure I have a good image of Asra.
I could just chop them off above the text, but noooo. I have to use the entire image.
It took me LONGER THAN THE STREAM TO DO.

I think that thread is meaningless pedantism designed to *appear* like a thread created by an intelligent person, and you need to be more critical of your own biases instead of blindly accepting what you read on here.
