I have been paying attention to a bunch of "anti-woke" people on YouTube. Every single one is a detestable person and a grifter. But it was useful to do this because they report on their ideological polar opposites, who are equally detestable and actually have power.
A fascinating aspect of this is that a lot of celebrities are weighing in on movie flops. They are convinced (well, I don't think they're smart enough to really think through their conclusions) that a small group of anti-woke cranks are making certain movies unpopular with general audiences, causing them to fail. This idea, if you follow the reasoning out loud, is pretty stupid and unbelievable. The movies were just bad and nobody wanted to see them.
I am not sure but I am starting to suspect that they are minor investors and are trying to find someone to blame and not their own judgment.

@sun I'm not entirely unconvinced that they're aren't affecting things at all, but it's still probably mostly through people starting to slowly notice, word of mouth and the "other side" having this much power and being extremely openly detestable
In the end, the actual only chance people have at stopping this dead in its track is to be principled and stop giving all of this money as much as you can

@Bladural @sun @thatbrickster Yeah, I played it right after playing MGSV and RDR2 and you do things the opposite way in those.

The way you get a really good score in Hotline Miami is to just do the most retarded thing you can, with no regard for whether or not it's retarded. Hopefully things don't get so chaotic that this is the best strategy in general.

@p @sun @thatbrickster
Excellent advice. Conversely, trying to play through levels meticulously and carefully is a really bad idea. It's no fun spending 10 minutes trying to beat a level only to mess up and die. Better to speedrun it repeatedly and then eventually clear it in less than a minute.

@thatbrickster if you a) know things need to change and b) don't think a failed 20th century mass murdering ideology is the solution then you are smarter than someone with a phd voting for kamala in the ways of being smart that matter. at least temporarily

@thatbrickster I have a ton more tolerance for right wing or reactionary stupidity than left wing. youtube is so bad. it ought to teach anyone that left wing people are just not smarter at all.

@sun I'm finding that last part to be true. The people I read from or listen to, who are most qualified (they're PhDs or whatever), happen to be 'right-wing thinkers'. Even Uncle Ted outlined the leftist archetype in his 1995 book that's still accurate to this day.

@sun A few come to mind. I have the same issue with some political commentators on either side of the divide. They think they're being insightful when they're saying the same few things in different ways.
