Kinda late to hate on this movie but now I've finally been put through it, I see the media literacy crowd suspiciously ignores the obvious allegory of "Disobey your parents and sell pictures of your vagina."
Curious!

@Rudolf_von_Goldenbaum @Wormwood The idea of ordering a CD to your home so you could play like a dozen songs seems crazy in hindsight now that everything's free everywhere. -

Women don't want you to know this, but returns are free.
They like buying things, not having things. They'll buy a million things they don't want and will never use, and be totally happy with those purchases. It's about the act of getting, not the utility of owning.
Simply keep all receipts, and return everything yourself. She'll never know. Between Target, TJ Maxx, and Home Goods, I've returned 847 items.

@Codeki @graf @grey She's autistic to a concerning degree, like a human who wants to be a robot. She's written about breaking down crying not knowing why, and then just shoves those thoughts aside with no self awareness.
It's such a weird personality type. -

@MeBigbrain @sickburnbro We subconsciously believe what we see is real, even if we consciously know it's fiction. Brainwashing is as easy as putting actors on a screen.

“The demand for White supremacy vastly outstrips the supply of White supremacy,” said one agent.
“We have more people assigned to investigate White supremacists than we can actually find.”
“We are sort of the lapdogs as the actual agents doing these sorts of investigations, trying to find a crime to fit otherwise First Amendment-protected activities.”
“Conspiracy theorists” vindicated, day 999.

@bleedingphoenix Was okay. Surprising how much normie appeal it got given the first episode has alien gang rapists with giant robot penises. -

@Insomnolant The book title "We Who Wrestle with God" is obviously a play on "israel" being "wrestle+God" ...but the use of "we" makes it seem like he's trying to include himself in with the jews. 🤔 -

Cook aliens. Consume aliens. Kick an alien into the sausage grinder. Slam dunk an alien baby into the melting pot. Stir fry aliens in a wok. Stuff an apple into an alien's mouth. Beat a pregnant alien with a frying pan. Turn aliens into gumbo. Butcher block an alien in half. Judo throw aliens into the food processor. Feed aliens to people. -

@Rasterman JF understands. It's hard to put to words exactly, but it's drawing attention to the kinds of silly things women find important.
It's just endearing quirks they have, so gay men have to countersignal it -

Ryan Faulk's theory on the left-right divide is "CPU" vs. "ASIC" thinkers. In his analogy, lefties are like central processing units--purposeful rationalizers. Whereas people on the right are more like application-specific integrated circuits--operating on unchangeable instinct, unable to explain why they do certain actions or hold specific beliefs.
There is some truth to that in how the "CPU-brained" will demand logical explanations for things the "ASIC-brained" don't question.
>"Who is drag queen story hour hurting??"
>idk... I just think it's wrong
According to him, you can generally tell a CPU from an ASIC person by whether or not they feel it's immoral to fuck a dead chicken.
>CPU: Can you rationally justify what's wrong with it?
>ASIC: idk, it's just wrong.
I had an independent explanation that touched on that, but explained a little more with it: the left are risk-takers who seek to be on the border of acceptable behavior, regardless of where that border is.
There is benefit to having some small number of your population behave this way. Say your tribe has a sphere of acceptable foods. If everybody suddenly tries something new, there's a chance it's slow-acting poison and the whole tribe dies off. It's definitely bad to have too many risk-takers. But if nobody ever tries it, there's a chance you missed out on a highly nutritious energy source other tribes could take advantage of. There is therefore some optimum level of "people willing to push the boundary" who try and make forbidden things acceptable, because they may tap into beneficial behaviors more cautious people would miss out on.
There is evidence for fear levels and disgust responses being tied to political leaning, so "Make everything acceptable" is just currently overtaking more of the population for some reason (jews, microplastics, women voting, whatever).
It explained the early Covid responses, where the right said to be cautious of a deadly virus from China, and the left called them fearmongering racists. But then a few months in everything flipped. Disagreement with locking down the country, belief masks don't do much of anything, and distrust toward a vaccine all became right views instead of left. Maybe that's the right having more accurate assessment of threats (via a more developed amygdala), but there's clearly something major being missed.
The more I thought on it, the more an integrated explanation made sense that explains most behaviors: status insecurity. The left's terrified they might look dumb or low-class, and require constant social validation reaffirming that they're some intellectual nobility. They shun arguments from instinct or nature because such base(d) forms of thinking are for uneducated peasants.
>"You don't want to eat the bugs?"
>"You don't want to sleep in the pod?"
>"You want your walls to have color?"
>"You want your food to have taste?"
>"You want to run in a field instead of on a treadmill?"
>"You care what happens to a fetus?"
>"Can't you see how illogical these objections are?"
>"I've ascended beyond those lesser human compulsions, and think only in terms of thermodynamic efficiency."
Note that it isn't actually true. They wouldn't be happy with these things.
They only need to act like it's acceptable and pretend humans are robots to convince themselves how intelligent and better-than-you they are.
Notice the facade flips when discussing poor, starving, brown third-worlders; they suddenly appear to care a lot about human comfort and dignity. Again, they don't really. It's just switching modes from "acting smarter" to "acting more empathetic."
You even see it in pretentious art and postmodernism. The toilet in the art gallery? The solid walls of a single color? They have to act like those are works of genius and merit, because it signals "If I can recognize this talent and you can't, that means I'm more enlightened and cultured than you."
His CPU/ASIC point hits some of these behaviors, but fails at explaining many others. The best explanation I've come up with is that they're just constantly putting on acts to self-sooth their insecurities. It's a kind of inward-directed signalling theory. A philosophy of cope.
