Need to let loose a primal scream without collecting footnotes first? Have a sneer percolating in your system but not enough time/energy to make a whole post about it? Go forth and be mid: Welcome to the Stubsack, your first port of call for learning fresh Awful you’ll near-instantly regret.

Any awful.systems sub may be subsneered in this subthread, techtakes or no.

If your sneer seems higher quality than you thought, feel free to cut’n’paste it into its own post — there’s no quota for posting and the bar really isn’t that high.

The post Xitter web has spawned soo many “esoteric” right wing freaks, but there’s no appropriate sneer-space for them. I’m talking redscare-ish, reality challenged “culture critics” who write about everything but understand nothing. I’m talking about reply-guys who make the same 6 tweets about the same 3 subjects. They’re inescapable at this point, yet I don’t see them mocked (as much as they should be)

Like, there was one dude a while back who insisted that women couldn’t be surgeons because they didn’t believe in the moon or in stars? I think each and every one of these guys is uniquely fucked up and if I can’t escape them, I would love to sneer at them.

      It doesn’t even make any sense 😭 surely “secular religion” and “childless hedonism” are not the same thing??

      "Life, it never die

      Women are my favorite guy."

      Wonder what is up with the folks and them getting into rhymes/poetry. Jordan B Peterson does something simple (his pinned tweet as example here. But we know he fried parts of his brain using the russian coma rehab method.

      And it isn’t even the Sinterklaas period yet. No need for bad rhymes. (I’m also suddenly reminded of all the people who tried to ‘rap’ their messages in the late 90s).

      Religion is the opium of the masses

      And I’m increasingly scared they’re gonna kick our asses

      Maybe it’s time for all those mugs

      To shut up and start hitting drugs

      I can pull finer bars out my arse than this fucking farce

      This is probably Grok - creativity from him’s pretty sparse

      Choom thinks he’s DOOM, but he won’t beat him any time soon

      With how much crack this whack goes through, he’ll forget this before noon

      (I’m no MF DOOM, but anything I can put out will beat this artless twat any day)
