It seems, sadly, that the techbros aren't trying to change the world for must of us. Perhaps change it for themselves, certainly prevent their pile from being reduced. More "F*ck you, I got mine!" I guess.

- paimapi 26d agotale as old as time. cis gay white men joining the Log Cabin and advocating against trans rights as soon as they taste power is another example it reminds me of playground socialization. the cool kids bully you for a long time and so you socialize with the outcasts. one day you get invited into the cool crowd, minimally welcomed with some reservations, and suddenly you're bullying the outcasts you used to associate with even harder than the cool kids ever did because you think it'll help elevate your status with your new in-group it's really a gross, childish thing but so so common to people who come into power after having it withheld for so long, at least in some Western societies
- president_zippy 26d agoHave you ever wondered how you sound to other people?
- paimapi 26d agoI'm very comfortable with not being liked by people :)
- president_zippy 25d agoWell, then I suppose you're very comfortable with people paying your opinion no regard.
- paimapi 25d agoone could say that that's what it means to be resilient and emotionally mature, to not desperately seek approval from only external sources, and to be content with expressing yourself however you'd like to :)
- president_zippy 25d agoYou claim not to seek approval, but you post little smiley faces at the end of every post, which tells me you desperately want some kind of reaction. If you truly didn't care how people receive your opinion, you wouldn't be conspicuously trying to convince the same people that you don't care how they receive your opinion. Arguing with an indifferent brick wall is not what a fella would consider resilient or emotionally mature behavior. Frankly, any halfway competent bonafide troll would get a kick out of knowing he or she played you into wasting precious time out of your own life.
- paimapi 25d agonow why would an indifferent brick wall decide to reply to a comment in the first place? seems fairly atypical of a brick wall to be honest :)
- president_zippy 25d agoI never said I am the brick wall, just that I was as far as you admitted 2-3 posts ago. That is, somewhere in between your screed about eligible gay bachelors defecting to the "Log Cabin" for mainstream cultural acceptance and me pointing out that for most of those times you think you "1337 pwn3d" somebody on "teh internets," they were just entertaining themselves by provoking you into wasting your time. Do with that what you will. Despite seeing you as just some annoying weirdo committing some petty form of shitting where I eat, I'm just trying to arm you with knowledge that might better your life. In the process of you becoming less miserable, you'll also be less of a detriment to everyone around you.
