NeoGAF & ResetERA - The Hilarious N̶e̶v̶e̶r̶e̶n̶d̶i̶n̶g̶ Splintering "Gaming" Forum Circus

The more I watch these insane people and their reactions to the election the more I'm completely at a loss for how this gets better. These people are clearly mentally ill - some of them dangerously so - and are so entrenched in their beliefs of left good right evil that I don't see how we fix this. I would kill to be a fly on the wall of these think tanks of how they plan to heal the country.

Napp is calling our Nep a braggart. How uncouth.
 
"So... work the bare minimum and have fun, and this will somehow lead to more technological breakthroughs, and somehow everyone's needs will be met (better than currently). Also everyone is good and full of life and does... art and stuff in the street"

I'll give him(?) one thing, he knows what kind of flowery language he should use to obfuscate the bullshit. But at the end of the day, it's still "10 times less efforts and 5 times more rewards". Shorter weeks lead to more productive hours, sure, but you can't optimize *that* much.

What they actually just want is a gentrified hipster neighborhood and infinite money for themselves.
 
Nep appears to be a fan of solarpunk. I enjoy it myself, but it comes with the problem of being conflict-free which makes it difficult to use as a setting for storytelling*. As a 'movement' (lol) it's hamstrung by the fact that no one really can figure out how to get from now to Harmonious Solarpunk Future where everyone's happy and healthy and living in balance with nature and each other. So much of the rationale for it from its proponents is 'Why can't you just believe something better is possible?' with no actual suggestions for the actual large-scale steps that could be taken. It's some serious head-in-the-clouds stuff, often pushed by people who would describe their political beliefs as Anarcho-Something, but it does have some very nice looking visual art.

*To the point where, despite solarpunk having been around for decades, there really are no great works of solarpunk fiction. In a bit of classic irony, the best-known piece of Solarpunk is 'Dear Alice', an animated commercial for Chobani yogurt. Utilizing the aesthetics and even elements of the ethos of an artstyle that is inherently anti-corporate in order to sell you something is exactly why cyberpunk is the SF subgenre with the best predictive power.

It looks kinda gay and I don't want to live in this future hippy society, personally.

Being a Gen-X individual, I have seen the word "punk" misused in innumerable ways, but that has got to be one of the faggiest, most retarded ways I have ever witnessed "punk" being abused.

I went to check in on my favorite genocide thread after the election and I just realized this fucking diseased faggot with his T cells already massively depleted from the Mpox and HIV civil war going on in his body is the reason I kept getting fucking spam calls from Georgia. 😐

Unfortunately for them, these retards and their bots were too stupid to get through my very simple call screening.
Does anyone even read these novelette-length gibbering idiot fits from Nepenthe the Niggress?
I veg out by the third line. Nep is the type of person that just sits in a corner yapping while everyone else in the room is trying to pick up something heavy that fell over. They have a solution for everything that somehow always involves shaming someone else for their lack of capacity to fix something they didn't break in the first place. Until the spotlight falls on them, then it's still someone else's fault.

She will continue to live a lonely existence and it's only going to get bleaker for her. She either spirals and hangs a strange fruit on her parents front lawn soon or she'll die a miserable death as a homeless degen after losing her parents home for not paying property taxes 10 years from now.

This is my favorite little excerpt from that thread first thread.

I also appreciate that even in that place Nep has gained lolcow status.

Stolen from reddit, presented without comment. Didn't blur the name myself so I'd be curious how much he doomposts.
Oh no some 41%ers, HIV-americans, single mothers and ethnic tokens are going to be upset with you for voting for your interests. 🤣

RetardEra retards aren't going to do anything, ever, just endlessly bitch and demand other people do something.
