I stumbled onto some tiny right-wing subreddit populated by like a dozen severely mentally ill weirdos and started following one of their own personal subreddits. the dude who runs it makes a post like this almost every single day and has for months at a time now, and they're all insanely boring and weird. their style has been evolving though. he used to just quote himself, now he just writes random stuff without attributing it to him/putting a selfie on there, and sometimes he pulls bible stuff out and uses it or, my absolute personal favorite, recommends that the frothing-at-the-mouth-crazy readers of his posts watch Little House on the Prairie in DVD box set

Also, of course Warren's blood test is in keeping with her family's oral history of having one Native ancestor a while back, and it's been documented that she never received any scholarships or other opportunities designated for Natives, but gently caress facts, right?

the niece thing is really unlikely - by all account Hitler was actually borderline asexual and the more or less definitive Ian Kershaw biographies have some hilarious parts where women remember him as a bloodless weirdo, its almost implied he was impotent sometimes but Kershaw is very careful about now repeating any Hitlerology that isn't supported by compelling evidence

The sentiment is fine but the entire article is dripping with condescension.

The idea that foolish people with college debt are victims exclusively of their own poor planning and not symptomatic of social issues that are a lot more dangerous than lack of plumbers or HVAC technicians makes me so mad

It's stupid even if you assume they deserve privation and poverty because the economy needs people to consume the services those technical professionals provide

It's also personal because I have a masters in history and people always poo poo on me and encourage me to go to ECPI and learn to code or something as though I have no skills at all

The only equality America was founded on was a bunch of white Englishmen not wanting to answer to royalty so they formed their own government. No one else was included because they were all considered subhuman or less. So as long as you were the approved kind of white guy at the time, you were "equal". Everyone else could gently caress right off.

It wasn't even for a bunch of white Englishmen,, just the southern planter aristocracy and white northern smallholders/urban professionals. Like they were most incensed by a tax on fuckin paper, something the average laborer never needed

Those articles are just brain dead elderly people attempting to interpret the increasingly unambiguous effects of capitalist alienation and their misfiring neurons jump directly to "lazy kids!!" because the American discourse demands a narrative of personal accountability for things like growing up in a hellish world of privation, loneliness, and failure with only like an iPad to comfort you while mom works her other jobs third shift/overdoses on fentanyl in her bedroom/whatever

I love these. I have a very credulous friend who has, in the decade I've known him, never owned a computer or used one regularly since dropping out of college. He is absolutely positive crypto is the way of the future because of the price rise last year and whenever it comes up he talks about how it's going to be vaguely good for the third world and poor people, and how it can really only go up. He has a fraction of a coin with coin base and honestly just thought it was like any other investment. I've found when I push him and other stoner friends, however, they don't actually understand anything about currency and the fact that bitcoins are only useful because of their relationship to the thing they're meant to replace is meaningless to them

An enormous number of southerners fought in the civil war because they were gormless pieces of poo poo who did exactly what their lazy planter parents / neighbors expected them to do and had a genuine belief in the cultural superiority of the south

One of my friends in school did his thesis on Confederate officer elections, as the Confederate army was pseudo-democratic at the regimental level until 1863, and iirc they uniformly elected aristocratic morons rather than practically tested NCOs

I like that because it’s a concrete example of the ingrained confederate deference to hierarchy manifesting itself as ideologically more important than good logistics and hope I’m remembering his conclusions correctly
