As a pagan myself, I know exactly the kind of person your talking about. People who put zero research or thought into their practice and just treat everything like a spiritual mad lib.

They tend to be the more new-agey types who's beliefs are unknowingly and uncritically parroting Helena Blavatsky and her fascist nonsense.

Yeah, Norse neopagans are either rad as fuck, or literal Nazis, with no in between

I enjoyed the trigonometry unit in my highschool geometry class, but that's because it was mostly proofs, and those were just philosophy about triangles.

We must reclaim our ancestral homeland

Not saying you have to like this recent video, but the level of blatant plagiarism and serial lying on display by James Sommerton is so comical to me, that I feel like he definitely qualifies as a freakish gremlin

But why have a thoughtful analysis of the material pressures on internet content creation, when you can be a heckin' big chungus lefto, who bitches about it on the Bear website, cuz you don't like a guy for being a lib? Upbears to the left!

Fr y'all, watch the video as background noise. If you can listen to theory audiobooks, you can do this.

Or, better yet, take the time you would've spent watch the video essay, or bitching about its length online, to read Combat Liberalism.

The first half is setting the stage, by giving examples of various YouTubers who have engaged in plagiarism.

The second half is Hbomb exposing a prominent queer YouTuber, James Somerton, for plagiarizing so fucking much, it makes the stuff in the first half feel quaint (Somerton has deleted his Twitter, and turned off comments on all of his videos, since this hbomb video dropped lmao).

Then, near the end, hbomb talks about how he'll donate the video's revenue to all the people Somerton plagiarized, and then shouts out various queer creators doing similar stuff, in a way that's actually original. So I'd encourage people to watch for that stuff, at least. But that's the gist.

NNB so sweet, and I have so many Trans headcanons for it!

Komari? Trans. Hotaru? Trans. Natsumi? Nonbinary.

The motherfuckers who shot into crowds of fleeing people

You mean the IDF who engaged in friendly Fire on 10/7?

Pull your head out of you ass. Even if everything you said is true, it's nothing compared to the violence of the settler colonial state.

They don't see women as people

Buddy, the Israelis don't see Palestinians as people. Stop engaging in genocide denial.
