I'm strong. And a giant penguin. Please don't eat me. No, really. Don't try.

The logo 100% looks like hh but "the word iron in the name" feels ridiculous tbh

Edit: gently caress. Sorry for this stupid snipe.

I'm watching a music video by them now, and it looks like some of the band members are wearing Hawaiian print shirts . . . I think you all might be onto something . . .

I think next I am going to try to look for secret messages praising Hitler in the lyrics to some of their greatest hits.

Ok, enough about the band. I don't know anything about Ska culture or history and that music is still nails on glass noise to me, much like this conversation where y'all are grasping for straws looking for new ways to insulting people. Go find some other dumb people's stuff to make fun of

I consider libertarianism as appealing to people who have no concept of empathy or community.

I figure that a government should care for and provide for its people. I don't get the sense that libertarianism feels this way.

Libertarianism is a direct rejection of the idea that "communities" are real; that we can have functioning, mutually-helpful organizations at a scale larger than maybe a family. It is, ultimately, the Conservative projection at it's most extreme: everybody's as selfish and spoiled as I am, I'm just the only one smart and brave enough to admit it.

Well no, they feel exactly the opposite

If you are the kind of person who needs the government's help, you should just die

EXISTENCE IS PAIN😬
Libertarians are really obsessed with a very selective interpretation of being "forced" to do things. A simple example being that they think they are forced to pay taxes, yet they don't think wage labor is forced. Which is, in of itself a contradiction - if you're forced to pay taxes then you're indirectly forced to come up with the money to pay for it, right?

And their issue with democracy is the saying, "Democracy is a bunch of wolves and one sheep voting what to eat for dinner". They think it will condone violence against the minority, but they see themselves as that minority therefore it is bad. If one John Galt is voting among ten morons, why should the morons collectively get a greater say in spite of cumulatively contributing less? Is another one of their arguments.

That's the joke. Pulling one's self up by their bootstraps is a metaphor for an impossible task. i.e. No one has ever become "self made" they have always benefited from outside resources or assistance.

Libertarianism is just a bunch of "gently caress you I won't do what you tell me, but do what I tell you" whiny babies who think that if they don't see a check that reads "your share of tax revenue" that taxes are therefore theft of their wages and that if a bad thing is not happening to them, then it's not a thing that happens.

It's like this town in New Hampshire that had a bunch of libertarians move in and make it their libertarian paradise, slashing funding for all city services, including essential things like trash collection. Only to realize that left to their own devices, people are just going to dump poo poo anywhere and attract bears....

I view it as more that Libertarians view freedom as "negative freedom", that is, that they have freedom "from" something, such as paying taxes, or caring about someone's feelings, or taking out the trash because I can't just pause it DAD, it's an ONLINE GAME JEEEEZZZ. In such a worldview, a positive duty or obligation is the same as enslavement.

So I guess gladiator-"inverted penises"-game blackpill man isn't taking getting his games kicked off Steam very well. Man is on one over on Gab.

This the guy who likes to do stuff like this


and make Big Tweets with replies from people like Scott Adams


and already got warned by Steam two weeks ago, including getting banned from his own game's forum for flagging every negative review as fake. He was in there calling everyone who didn't explicitly agree with him cucks or cowards or trannies.

He was bragging on Gab about how he managed to unlock his dev account before they promptly shut that down too. Even on the worst shitposting sites where they love this kind of poo poo, way more people are calling him out as stupid than just saying 'based'. There are articles in Chinese talking about what an idiot he is.
