No! I don’t want Bob anywhere near my state. We have enough problems without that footless blob rolling in

As a native New Yorker, I was already offended when he said he wanted the entire state to be "Manhattanized". Have fun with Bob trying to turn all of California into LA.

It always sets off my :autism: when the word "troll" is used to describe a "bad guy" or "person who doesn't like me" instead of a trickster of some sort. Even if it was a video of "Bob's a doodoo stinky head. Praise Hitler", that wouldn't be trolling and is just some idiot. Where is the trickery directed towards Bob in that?

I always associate the wrong usage with either someone who's new or someone with a habit of shitting the bed when dealing with people.

Agreed. People like to talk about what they don’t know. It’s easy to misunderstand trolling as someone just being an asshole and use that as your definition of trolling.
I went ballistic when the meaning of meme changed and the now the original is pretty much lost to the public eye

Edit: accidental double post, meant to be part of the same post. My bad

That was definitely some grade A exceptionalism. However, LA is a very different animal to Manhattan. Other than one very specific part in downtown, the rest of LA is very similar to the rest of Southern California. Things don’t start looking different until you hit San Francisco. That’s why we have such a strong North vs South thing here and there’s constant talks of the two maybe someday(definitely never happening) splitting into two states. Though thankfully, as a Boston native, Bob would probably die of heat if he were to come here. Or other natural disasters. I mean when we can get hit by a severe 7 year draught followed by the third largest fire in our history and then a massive storm that caused a flood/mudslide so massive it destroyed one of our wealthiest areas, killed 18 people and shut down all commutes for a few weeks, only to then have one of our coldest February’s in decades. You know that the average Massachusetts tumor can’t handle this place.
Honestly, I count my stars every day for just barely out of the red zone for all of that.

Maybe this is a-logging, but every time Bob unironically says obsolete America- people, and not just the white dudebros Bob imagines them to be (ever been to Detroit, Gary, or Chicago, Shitman?) that have been screwed by outsourcing, mechanization, plant closing, cheap illegal (slave wage) labor...and meth. Don't get me started on the meth!

I want to sock his fat fucking face until it caves in. You know who doesn't matter Bob? YOU. You perform one of the least essential functions in our society, one among many corporate shill "critics" that merely amplifies popular opinions. The second your heart collapses from the strain of supporting your greasy, sedentary lifestyle, nothing you have ever said will be of consequence. No friends, no family- just a legacy of whining for us all to laugh at. A cautionary tale. Something we can point our children as something not to aspire to.

Glad to get that off my chest. Eat an auditorium full of dicks, Bob.

I remember Bob retweeted someone who said "Don't make assumptions" once the first reactions came out. Of course the likeliest answer is that Bob and his sempais don't want to admit that Ava DuVernay screwed up her big blockbuster.

When I read Ava DuVernay cast the witches because they were titans in their fields or whatever instead of casting the right actresses for the parts I began to suspect we were looking at a gaudy pile of shit. (I mean, even more than I thought that upon seeing the trailer.) I guess we'll know soon enough. Bob's mental gymnastics to defend it will be hilarious either way.

Having actually read the book, I honestly think that no matter how you adapt it into film it's going to suck either way. There are just certain stories that can't be translated into film, and A Wrinkle in Time is one of them in my opinion.

The word "troll" has lost all it's meaning and is just an irrelevant term now and days. It began to lose all it's meaning when YouTube was first becoming popular. I remember back in the early days of YouTube a lot of users would often label other users (especially the anonymous users) who merely criticized them as "trolls". Mere disagreement or anonymity made you a so called internet troll. It's just been butchered and bastardized ever since then.

In my more euphoric days, I used to watch clips from the Atheist Experience, which is a call-in show run by Matt Dilahunty and various guests. I remembered one of my favourite clips was where they discussed the death of Jerry Falwell. For those who don't know who Jerry Falwell was, he was a Christian nutjob who became infamous for blaming 9/11 on what he saw as America's sins (abortionists, homosexuals, the ACLU etc.)

Anyway the reason this clip sprung to mind is because it's scary how much of what Matt says here applies to Bob. I'll link to the relevant part, but replace Jerry Falwell with Bob Chipman and tell me it doesn't remind you just a little bit of Boston's most shameful export, particularly the "opponent of free speech" part and how he blamed people he disagreed with for 9/11:

I know I've put more thought into then he ever has but I wish he'd have some consistent framework for whatever the "Superior Future" is. You can list the key points he likes bringing up but he never connects them. The best I have is...

• Destroy national borders to create a free-for-all "Survival of the Fittest" situation that would mean we'll create a Superior society of Americans Who Matter that idealistically phases out Obsolete America.
• Advance mechanization to the point where physical labor is Obsolete. Society focused purely on intellectualism.
• Somehow establish global government by means Bob has yet to address. He gets silent if you bring up annexing. Possibly a mega-corp like Disney taking over. He's okay if it's a dynasty as long as they have the right ideals
• Somehow build his giant cities like an NYC covering all of New York.
• Establish universal basic income but still keep capitalism around.
• "Aggressively" focus on establishing colonies on other planets
• Post-human Bob goes into a diabetic coma after eating too much fried moon bread.

It's obvious he has no clue what the hell he's on about since he never says how any of this would work. Point 1 is basically a suicidal "rape me and take my stuff".

I disagree respectively, I think you could pull off a good movie with a good director and the right cast. Unfortunately, the cast they current have destroys any hopes of it.

Does Bob state how we get to any one of these points for his corporate fascism though?

Tonight's one of those nights where you just throw up your hands and go "Sure."
View attachment 397373

Look, I didn't study history or politics. I didn't even give a shit about politics until very recently. So I'm gonna autistically sperg for a bit.

Bob, there are many facets of National Socialism, or especially the form practiced in Nazi Germany. The "alt-right" generally has a lot of bad ideas, but even they don't subscribe to the facets of National Socialist theory that made Nazi Germany repugnant. Identity-based socioeconomic isolationism is actually a pretty bad theory, but the shit that people get disgusted at Nazi Germany for is:

* Singling out certain identities as the centerpoint and cause of current cultural and economic problems
* Dehumanizing of those elements of society
* Tendency toward extreme and unprovoked violence to the above mentioned, both direct -- throwing the punch, turning on the gas chambers -- and indirect -- giving the order to do so, or desiring it to be done.

How does it not register why people call you a Nazi, Bob? On what planet can you subscribe to basically every theory that people find repulsive about old Nazi Germany, but because you _don't_ subscribe to these smaller subsets of their political theory that don't really matter, you think that disqualifies you?

Can I give my own post an autism rating? Fuck me.

 

[RockVolnutt]

That was my point, he doesn't explain how these things connect. The best you get is inferring that this "inevitable" Superior Future is the product of those that thrive in a nation-less world. How that makes sense is not something I know the answer to.

I wish someone would specifically ask him how do we get his superior future. He menetioned Hillary Clinton would’ve give him the future he wanted, but I didn’t see anything she offered resembling his.

I disagree respectively, I think you could pull off a good movie with a good director and the right cast. Unfortunately, the cast they current have destroys any hopes of it.

I think maybe if you had a passionate director behind it who was a fan of the book and actually was skilled in adapting books to film then maybe you would get a decent product out of it. A Wrinkle in Time just reminds me too much of Dune in this department: a really great book, but one that is incredibly difficult to adapt to film. It was written for the novel medium, it should stay in the novel medium.

Does Bob state how we get to any one of these points though?

No. He never explains how we obtain any of these things, because he can't. These things he envisions are impossible to actually obtain because it's physically impossible. He doesn't actually understand how real life works, his mind is entirely built around fiction and thus his "vision for a superior future" lacks any ground in actual reality.

A great example: the "turn all of New York state into Manhattan" shit. That entire idea was thoroughly ripped to shreds by @LordKaT on an episode of his podcast awhile back. It was not only pointed out just how many problems arise from this idea if it was a reality, but how impossible it was for that concept to actually become a reality in the first place.

Well it looks like the director went a little too far with it with the cast. Almost every single character looks miscasted and lost in their roles, especially Chris Pine and Oprah Winfrey.

so another case of the book being better than the movie, I take it?

It looks like another case of it as well. Not sure how it’ll do at the box office. Though I doubt Disney will be bothered by this as long as they have Marvel and Lucasfilm.

If I ever run a dystopian sci-fi game using Cyberpunk, or Shadowtech I probably will base it on Bobby's horrible horrible ideas. Because only a deranged and senile technocrat who takes the worst aspects of Rexism and Objectivism and spin it hard left can come up with something this perfect for a setting.

I would, given that despite not being a big fan of using cows as characters, a weird douche like Bob would work as a dictator. Seriously, compare his autism to someone like Kim Jong Il or Enver Hoxha and you will immediately know that lolcows can be dictators too.
