Huh, surprising to hear that at least “officially” SD’s gotten slightly less… well, nazi.
Also, love the Stafford Beer quote 😀 Honestly “the purpose of the system is what it does” is an excellent heuristic.

Yeah but that’s exactly it though: they’re not very moderate if they really have no qualms about collaborating with the likes of SD.
It’s the same here in Finland too, the “moderate” and “fiscally conservative” National Coalition Party (Kokoomus) is suddenly pretty much indistinguishable from the far right Finns Party (Perussuomalaiset) now that they’re in a 100% right wing government. They’re eg. loosening the punishment for denying the Holocaust, blocking the progress of a law that would ban “conversion therapy” (ie. psychological violence to turn people straight), their MPs are now openly racist, and so on.
Feels like “moderate” conservatives are just waiting for an excuse to drop their masks. One of my former acquaintances who is supposedly a moderate KOK voter told me straight up that the world would be a better place if gender minorities (like me…) didn’t exist.
I’ve always found it a bit funny that one of the Swedish conservative parties is called the Moderates. They pretend they’re “centre right” like every fucking conservative seems to, because for whatever baffling reason they lack the spine to call themselves right wing. “Nooo you can’t call me right wing, that hurts my feelings – I’m centre right and a moderate! But anyhow, Hitler was right and trans people and leftists should be put in death camps, and here’s some Russian propaganda for you that proves all this”
Oh don’t worry, we’re working on fixing that. There may be life on Earth, but no intelligent life.
This is, fairly predictably, probably going to be an unpopular post.
And before some bright spark comes in accusing me of being pro-genocide, Israel can get fucked – just because I’m against Palestinian genocide doesn’t mean I have to be blind to this shit.
The point is that they were the biggest supporter, and workers were more likely to vote for the social democrats or communists. Nowadays even workers seem to love fascists
The inconsequential typo really wasn’t what elicited my comment
Conservative masculinity:
Honestly the fact that anybody is attracted to men proves sexuality is not a choice

Researchers have achieved data rates as high as 424Gbit/s across a 53-km turbulent free-space optical link using plasmonic modulators—devices that use special light waves called surface plasmon polaritons to control and change optical signals
This could be a line from Star Trek
They’re “depressed and despondent” because they judge comic movie fans? This is some prime Dr. Phil level psychology right here.
Would have cost you exactly 0 € to not be a cunt, but here you are.
I didn’t correct it because I was away from my computer for an extended period – the current version has a different image and is correctly attributed. I didn’t delete it because then the existing conversation in the comments would have also gotten nuked, exactly the same reason the mod didn’t delete it either.
Yeah I doubt those particular comments have anything to do with “AI”. It just seems fashionable to blame AI for absolutely everything nowadays
I’ll just make a new one (this isn’t oc) when I get home but that’ll be 10h at least. It’s OK to nuke this since it is sorta misinfo, although I didn’t know it when I posted it
Shutting it does shut you out though, at least until you unshut it.
