I thought this term was about people who were too in favor of immigration and accepting refugees? I don't see how it's applicable here.

Mewgenics Co-Creator Responds to Cameo Complaints: 'I Understand We Live in a Time Where a Meow From Someone Who Has Different Beliefs as You Is Scary and Frustrating, Confusing and Controversial' ( www.ign.com )

Mewgenics co-creator Edmund McMillen has discussed how he drew up the list of the personalities approached to provide the game's numerous cameos, saying that while he "understands we live in a time where a meow from someone who has different beliefs as you is scary and frustrating, confusing and controversial... it felt ...

"I wanted the game to feature a huge array of iconic voices I’ve been hearing echoing across the internet for most of my time making games. As some probably noticed, I was all over the place when it came to cameos and did my best to include and keep ones that clashed or kinda counterbalanced each other. The inclusion of Ethan and Hila [Klein] was counter balanced by iDubbbz and Anisa," he added, referring to two creators who have publicly supported Palestine.

The wise man bowed his head solemnly and spoke

This is what the Red Scare has always been about. Capital knows that the ultimate choice is between socialism or barbarism, and it has spent decades doing everything in its power to prime people to choose barbarism.

Yesss I love dreamposts. I always hear people say "nobody cares about your dreams" but I find this stuff fascinating. I can definitely relate to my dream-self thinking that something bizarre and nonsensical is just a mundane irritant.

Not being taken seriously, mocked for my views and people not believing a word I say.

I don't want to complain too much since in all honesty this isn't even remotely a serious enough topic. As I've gotten more and more educated in ML and adjascent knowledge, I've tried explaining to people my views, why they make sense and how they apply to the urrent world we live in. I push back when people claim outrageous ...

Consumerist grandson inveigled and finagled his way into getting a Switch 2 for Christmas. Now he's drawing Plustikas over everything and says Treatler did nothing wrong. What do I do?

With a smirk he just says "oh, but that's just the Switch 2 Plus button." But I know. I know what he's up to. This is what gaming does to children? I tried engaging with him intellectually by debunking him and the Consumption Demon Treatler in front of the entire family but they all said it wasn't good nor dialectical ...

Social conservatives and conservatives in general are NOT normal at all- they are in fact extremely weird.

Yeah so am I, but I don't think that's the problem with them

Like to take one example, being a vegan in the US makes me "not normal." It's a fringe movement that maybe ~1% of the population follows and that puts me at odds with how the entire rest of my society thinks about the ethics of our relationships with animals. It's weird by any meaningful definition, but it's also a part of myself I consider non-negotiable.

Early Chapo Trap House had the beneficial innovation of targeting fascist insecurities by focusing on how off-putting and pathetic they are but yeah I think the "dirtbag left" has outlived its usefulness by several years

BeanisBrain OP ,
@BeanisBrain@hexbear.net avatar

Yeah, that's the problem with the slogan I think. "Normal" is such a vague and loaded term whose negation ("weird"/"abnormal") often gets weaponized against disabled and LGBT people. One can take many different meanings from "be normal."

BeanisBrain OP ,
@BeanisBrain@hexbear.net avatar

That feels like a very unusual and idiosyncratic definition of "normal" to me. Like you say "not being a BlueAnon person" but statistically there are way more BlueAnon people in the US than there are Marxist-Leninists, and they're given much greater legitimacy by at least a section of the mainstream media. It seems to be that by any reasonable definition it's BlueAnon that are the normal ones.

BeanisBrain OP ,
@BeanisBrain@hexbear.net avatar

"You assumed 'normal' meant what it almost always means instead of inferring a highly specific and unusual definition of it" = "You're reading too much into this"? What?

BeanisBrain OP , (edited )
@BeanisBrain@hexbear.net avatar

I assume that such a vague and useless comment is either an attempt to rile me up or trying to pull the old trick of "winning by acting like you're winning." Not worth engaging with either way.

BeanisBrain OP ,
@BeanisBrain@hexbear.net avatar

I think this is a case of selection bias in action. If you don't spend time in furry-dedicated spaces then by definition the furries you're gonna notice are the ones who are really loud about it. I do everything I can to decouple my furry identity from my non-furry identity (outside of mentioning the fact that I am one and that I have a particular fondness for bugs) as a matter of infosec because I'm well aware of the capacity of fascists and fash-adjacents to make my life unpleasant over it.

when I came out as ace, like formally told people that I've figured out something important about myself, the only positive responses I got were from other queer folk. Every cishet person I knew simply didn't understand, or just wanted to pathologize and/or mock me.

...which makes it all the more bitterly ironic when ace people get accused of "co-opting queer identity" (as a bi man who uncontroversially falls under the LGBT umbrella, anyone who levels that accusation at ace people can fuck right off).
