The Colombian president started the fight on accepting undocumented immigrants back into his country. His main complaint was that they were coming on a military plane and that's inhumane treatment. Good news, you can treat them as humanely as you like when you have them back.

Working now on putting all of the raccoon sequences into one big, fluid, video. It's at like 20 minutes now though and I don't think people are going to sit and watch the whole thing.

THE !CHUDS QUEEN IS BACK!

you may ask cyberdick why make this post?

BECAUSE Never before in the history of YOUTOOB...

has a Youtube channel gained 600,000 subscribers without uploading a single video!!

YES YOU HEARD THAT RIGHT!

This is the first Video in the channel and its already at 645K!!

GO CLICK THE NOTIFICATION BUTTON!

TLDR

Ben Shapiro got jealous and dropped Brett from her channel "The Comments Section with Brett Cooper" as she became more and more successful

Her !besties and her Producer backstabbed her and took over the channel!!

Now the channel is in shambles and Subscriber count dropping daily from 4.5Mil highest to 4Mil now

Even with 4 MILLION Subscribers the new BACKSTABBER'S videos don't even cross 100K! They at best cross 50K if lucky

Her Stantup was also SOLD OUT and was a SUPER DUPER HIT

Probably by trying to do it from first principles.

It might be time for me to take my assorted SFBA Rationalist Cult writing and put them on a blog. I'd have done it already but the goddarn fascism just keeps on marching onwards.

Aurornis 3 minutes ago | parent | prev | next [–]

Weird to see a community I followed show up so close to home and negatively like this.

I had some coworkers who were really into LessWrong and rationality. I thought it was fun to read some of the selected writings they would share, but I always felt that online rationalist communities collected a lot of people with reactionary, fascist, misogynistic, and far-right tendencies. There's a heavily sanitized version of rationality and EA that gets presented online with only the highlights, but there's a lot more out there in the fringes that is really weird.

For example, many know about Roko's Basilisk as a thought exercise and much has been written about it, but fewer know that Roko has been writing misogynistic rants on Twitter and claiming things like having women in the workforce is "very negative" for GDP.

The Slate Star Codex subreddit was a home for rationalists on Reddit, but they had so many problems with culture war topics that they banned discussion of them. The users forked off and created "The Motte" which is a bit of a cesspool dressed up with rationalist prose. Even the SlateStarCodex subreddit has become so toxic that I had to unsubscribe. Many of the posts and comments on women or dating were becoming indistinguishable from incel communities other than the rationalist prose style.

Even the real-world rationalist and EA communities aren't immune, with several high profile sexual misconduct scandals making the news in recent years.

It's a weird space. It felt like a fun internet philosophy community when my coworkers introduced it years ago, but the longer I've observed it the more I've realized it attracts and accepts a lot of people whose goals aren't aligned with objectively "make the world better" as long as they can write their prose in the rationalist style. It's been strange to observe.

Of course, at every turn people will argue that the bad actors are not true rationalists, but I've seen enough from these communities to know that they don't really discriminate much until issues boil over into the news.

Remember when your parents would make you use shampoo as a young child and you’d get it in your eyes and you would cry because you just got poison in your eyes and this was totally normal?

Following up on reporting by my fellow MNN correspondent @darkdeity.

It was a standoff that lasted 6 hours that everyone watched on TV there, probably like OJ Simpson's slow speed car chase. Except OJ Simpson didn't think he had mystical psychic powers and consult with shamans all the time who told him he could get away with it.

Background: To put this into American terms. Basically the FBI has an arrest warrant for the President. The Secret Service says "we don't care, we protect the President". They tried on Jan 3 and then gave up because, really, wtf do you do in that situation? It's something nobody is prepared for. So they went back and regrouped.

They come back today in overwhelming force. If I'm understanding various reports correctly, they sent in 3,000 cops this time. They forced some kind of Mexican standoff situation where they dared the President's bodyguard to stop them and stared them down. There was real fear that this would end up with shooting. But the bodyguards eventually backed down. I want to imagine somebody doubted the cops' resolve and then one pulled out a .44 Magnum and pointed it at his head and asked "Do you feel lucky, punk?"

It has been reported that veteran personnel of the police's Mobile Detective Unit, Narcotics Investigation Unit and Anti-Corruption Investigation Unit have been dispatched for the warrant execution

Gives you an idea of who this is. It's not a bunch of commies, it's Steve McGarret, Joe Friday, Elliot Ness, Kojak, [insert some morally upright cop from your millenial/zoomer shows, if there are any these days]. They're just trying to enforce the law.

The police are also reportedly considering measures to arrest any individuals who obstruct the team's investigation, including the deputy chief of the PSS Kim Seong-hoon and the head of the Bodyguard Division Lee Kwang-woo who had warrants for their detention issued against them Tuesday night.

Please do.

a bunch of stuff about the 55th Security Brigade

This is the military unit that is the garrison for the capital. Nobody likes to talk about it, but this is what really matters when it comes down to it. They could have easily stopped it but they didn't. Probably because they don't want this insane guy running the country any more than everyone else does. Remember that through the 1980s (I swear it wasn't that long ago, I'm not that old) all power in the country was ultimately based on who could get military units to fight for them. So them sitting this one out is a relief to everyone involved except Yun and his partisans.

Further Reading

I've reported extensively on these topics but if you want some more background:

55th Security Brigade's response to Yun's orders to arrest his political opponents

From 2 years ago during the election why people think that him and his wife are total fricking weirdos.

Okay this one is just funny

Why the rightoids are so afraid of communism - because it's real

My last post about this lamenting that the left is apparently just as bad

Seriously tho, just search for "author:redactor0 korea". A variety of material and all of it is gold.

Getting surgery this week. Flying to 90210 for it. I can't find any women in nyc who find me physically attractive. I'm gonna be injecting about 8 peptides a day after this as well. Been taking a couple for about a month and I haven't noticed significant improvement but here's to hoping somehow taking a frickload more will do something.

I'm just feeling like nothing works. I deleted another dating app tonight because I spent 3+ weeks on it without a single match. This one didn't even have a chat feature and is new to the US. You just match and go on a date. No excuses of "you've got bad game" or something in the texts. Still not even one match after swiping every single day.

I'm going to be 35 sooner than later and I'm one of my surgeon's oldest patients for this particular surgery I'm getting. He says he doesn't get "older" men very often. Talk about being a fricking loser. I'm not supposed to be getting cosmetic facial surgery at this age - I'm supposed to be a dad but here we are.

Grim fricking world we live in.

People who are using apps have been vocal about how much the experience sucks. Hinge seems especially awful to me with its limited number of photos, lame prompts, limit on likes per day, and keeping your "best" matches behind a pay wall.

Imagine foids don't have enough likes to give it to all top 1% guys and top 0,0001% guys are pay locked.

Frick life of foids is hard.

I want to combine Facebook dating with OkCupid. I think Facebook gives you ample room to write about yourself, and it gives you more than enough photo slots. I love that you can see if you have mutual friends with someone. I'd mix that with the part of OKC where you answer questions and that give you a compatibility percentage. Unfortunately, both of those platforms are very unpopular in my area, so I have to deal with Hinge & Tinder.

Every guy knows that foids don't give shit about it. They will read is if you are absolutely Chad but if you are absolutely Chad you already getting like from her since to foids guys they like are automatically funny

I'm curious about what a better dating app experience would look like to others.

PostWall inc

I agree about filters. Even when you pay to apply the filters, it still shows you people outside of the filters you've set and just highlights the people who match the preferences you've set. To me, something like childfree or monogamous is non-negotiable, so showing me people outside of that is just a waste.

App be like: b-word your filters are so extreme, why not look at this decent guy (that probably won't like your flobs back)

childfree or monogamous is non-negotiable

Why would a successful good looking 34 year old man would want a fat 34 year old sterile foid and be monogamous to her ?

And I know many of you won't question her being fat

https://old.reddit.com/r/PlusSize/comments/1hd0u8n/sometimes_i_think_i_like_plus_size_women_actually/

I've been in "romantic" relationships before where the man I was with wasn't physically attracted to me, and it was really painful to endure.

And we know he was in shape

The problem is, though, that too many of the men I've talked to who say they prefer plus-size women have been awful. They've rushed to talk about s*x

She also don't understand supply and demand curves. There so many fat foids supply and so few demand and such guys are working hard

To make sure all fat chicks get some D

I feel so stupid even asking this, but are there actually decent people out there who are more attracted to a size 16 than a size 6? Because I'm having suuuch a hard time finding someone who likes my body and is also capable of just being kind & normal to me and not scaring me or sexualizing me too much too soon.

Yes there are decent people like 1 such guy for 50 size 16 kwins and if she has green card to share.

https://old.reddit.com/r/TwoXChromosomes/comments/1fb6bpa/why_i_stopped_asking_men_on_dates/

When I was single, this was my experience as well. I would always hear men say "We want to be asked out too" but what they don't say is that they only want to be asked out by women they find attractive. Otherwise they will freak out, be upset or get weirded out.

My experience as well. That look of disgust they get that an average woman like myself dare think they be interested, or even I dare be attracted to them lol. I've asked out plenty of men in my early 20s and pretty regularly rejected-gives you thick skin. But unfortunately socially, we are not at a place where women have equal footing when doing the approaching. Now I don't approach-if he's interested he'll approach me.

I actually were approached by shit tons of fat foids and it always surprised me like I always looked at them and was thinking (wow she is a foot smaller than me and weight more than me, why is she even approaching me ? We look like cartoon troop of tall and skinny person and fat and short)

Especially this

Has anyone noticed this phenomenon? These barely legal girls put on silicone drag queen breasts, film low effort videos that get hundreds of thousands of views, men embarrass themselves in the comments. How do they not see they're fake? Most of the videos will have a high cut shirt on, then they'll use ai on photos with cleavage. Some even use ai on videos, pretty well actually, but now I've been looking a lot I can tell.

Of course these girls have onlyfans, I respect the grift. The crazy thing is they all use the same breast plate which has the left tit slightly higher than the right, like wonky hentai style. I've found at least 15 of these profiles. Idk I just want to talk to someone about this and figured rs people would be offended by stolen big natural valor.

I love finding out about weird corners of the internet I didn't know about. People gooning over literal fake tits smh my head.

I'm actively fighting against falling down the pipeline so I occasionally say things that some people might find "edgy".

It's mainly because I tend to lean to the economic right, but for social issues I support progressivism.
