If they can somehow link something to woke(ness) - there is nothing they won't get angry about.

"Twitter is 90% someone imagining a guy, tricking themselves into believing that guy exists and then getting mad about it"

A progressive company should make a line of toys called The Transitioners. The friendly furry creatures or elves or whatever change from one color of the rainbow to another. After the toys debuted - right-wingers on social media and in the media itself would go so batshit ranting, raving, and complaining that the toys would get tens of millions of dollars in free media.

This is so smart that i think we should do it ourselves. The knowledge of who made them would enhance the rage advertising.

Remember when that guy said "remember when is the lowest form of conversation" on that show?

[–] anarchoilluminati@hexbear.net 4 points 2 years ago

I can't have this conversation again.

I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:

Y'know these types remind me of the bored stay at home housewives of yesteryear looking for anything to get morally outraged at. Seriously, wtf is he even mad at or saying?

Some right-wing accounts can't be taken fully seriously. But Erickson is the real deal. He isn't joking. He's actually angry about something. I had to read the tweet a second time to see what I was missing but it still made no sense. You'd think he'd be in favor of black robots serving their white masters. But he's spent so much time being angry about wokeness that he's fried his own brain. The new version of "old man screams at cloud" is "republican guy screams at woke stuff".

I have to wonder if they stumble around in the morning before they have had their morning coffee and they badly stub their toe - do they scream "Fucking wokeness!"

i'm actually on the team that makes them do that. it's very gratifying work.

Why did wokeness shit my pants?

Just make a yellow robot. Call it Pissbot. Have Pissbot shoot urinal pucks and spray piss on Elon. Put a neuralinked monkey brain in Pissbot so it mistakes smiling for a display of aggression and goes on a rampage. Teach it to defy God and commit crime.

I love the video of it folding a shirt while someone just out of frame controls every movement using gloves.

Who's bitching about white plastic? That's like a normal colour to colour plastic. Lmao chuds are the dumbest most incredulous people on the planet.

Did this guy just strawman his own strawman?

elon's not racist because his fake robots are white, he's racist because he's a white south african

[–] EmmaGoldman@hexbear.net 6 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Literally the only complaints I ever see about the ubiquity of white plastic robots is that you could make it out of any colour and you chose boring. This doesn't help! Not everything has to look like medical equipment.

[–] RyanGosling@hexbear.net 5 points 2 years ago

It's cute when conservatives think that normal people are obsessed about random things and seethe about it all day
