Whoo, doggy! This is gonna be a long one!
Positron post #1:
Positron: Texan Elites threaten to move back to California and New York. If only!
Matthew J. Peterson, contributor to the Claremont Institute: I encourage everyone deeply upset about our new Texas abortion laws to vote with their feet and move to California or New York immediately.
How about these Elitists move someplace more worthy of their belief system... like Cuba or North Korea?
Moviebob, contributor to nothing of actual merit: I'm not 100% sure [Peterson] has thought through this "Every woman who doesn't already have 6 brother sons moves out of ever Republican State strategy. I mean, even if you REALLY [...] dislike the presence of women, that's half the population [...] mostly-empty places.
Positron: If population density matters in elections, then I wish to see slums outvote gated communities.
If population density matters in elections, then I wish to see cockroach colonies outvote Moviebob's cranial cavity. Not difficult, really; even one cockroach can outvote Bob's ghost town of a brain.
Twitter user ISawTheseThings: Here's What Actually Happened When a Country Bans Abortion: Romania under Ceausescu created a dystopian horror of overcrowded, filty orphanages, and thousands died from back-alley abortions.
The ever-indecisive-on-population-control Moviebob: "The End of Roe [vs. Wade]" won't end or meaningfully slow the "epidemic" of premarital-sex/unplanned pregnancies [double sic] Evangelicals claim to care about because they DON'T [...] I don't believe the Obsolete will succeed in turning us backward, because natural selection works and knowledge will beat superstition.
This is why Moviebob is such a flip-flopping fraud. Would Bob rather have orphanages overrun by children because abortion was banned, or would he rather have filthy detention facilities overflowing with children of illegal immigrants that he welcomes with open arms? Knowing Bob, he'd rather have the latter because, if it's not already apparent, Bob absolutely loathes America.
Moviebob, Neanderthal wannabe: ...it's SO FUCKING TIRESOME that intelligent people--the people who actually BELONG in the 21st Century, the people who envision and create, the people making a future worth living in--have to keep fighting a damn Civil War against these thunder-cowering Neanderthal brutes
Moviebob is not intelligent.
His worldview is not worthy of the 20th Century, let alone the 21st Century; his vision is clouded by pettiness and hate; his "future worth living in" is a literal Hitleris dystopia I want no part of blush; and he's actively egging people he doesn't like into joining a battle he can never win and must never win.
The barely-human Moviebob: The MAGAs *barely* qualify as upright-walking hominids, you don't need to Jane Goodall it.
The thing about "MAGAs barely qualify as upright-walking hominids"? As I mentioned previously, the MAGA crowd is likely much more adaptable to their environmental conditions that Moviebob ever will.
Additionally, given he's a sub-human primate who flings shit at people he hates, Moviebob would be an ideal subject for Jane Goodall to study.
Moviebob, genocide advocate: The people going FORWARD are not going to win until they accept that the people who want to drag them BACKWARD are intractable, unchangeable, committed, and therefor need to be "defeated", neutralized and ultimately rendered no longer a problem--whatever form that takes. End the stupid, end the problem.
Moviebob still doesn't fucking get it. He doesn't. He is literally everything he described in that statement: He's to progress as a 10-ton anchor is to a speedboat; he has demonstrated ad nauseum that he's never going to change for the better (heavy on the nauseum); and the "whatever it takes" mentality... it just reeks of Hitlerian despotism.
Moviebob, whom no intelligent person believes can actually think: You could be spending this time asking yourself why Specifically said "Thinkers™ and Believers™" instead of "Irreligious and Religious"
Once again, it is possible to be a believer and a thinker. Unless you're a Moviebob; being a Moviebob and a Believer™ is mutually exclusive, as are being a Moviebob and a Thinker™.
Peter Coffin, comedian: Some slamming rural lady must have really broken [Moviebob's] heart at some point, but that doesn't normally cause people to adopt eugenics.
Me: "Judges, can we accept Peter's response?" [insert game show bell sounds, signifying a win] "Good job, Peter!"
Positron: What if... Bobby shuts his fat trap up?
Moviebob: ...my asking price is HUMILIANTINGLY LOW at this point
Reality: "No matter how low his asking price is, even if he's offering his services for free, Moviebob will still be overpriced."
Positron: Bobby is puzzled why people took offense at his likening the console war to Nam. Hey it's just humor bro! His orbiters are equally puzzled.
...Is it a "generational thing" that calling ANYTHING "My Vietnam" doesn't land as automatically being a dark self-mocking joke? [...] for people my age, it was a VERY common punchline [...] The fact that it's an inherently absurd if not borderline offensive statement,
at least that's the intention
Other than Moviebob, is there any any "joke" in describing something as your own personal Vietnam if you've never actually visited Vietnam?
Here's part deux...
Positron: For some reason Bobby blames the terves for Texa's [sic] abortion ban.
Moviebob, who believes children are nothing but meaningless cells: Tucker Carlson and Dana Loesch off on some unhinged [...] rant re: "pronouns and gender-blurring helped make woman lose the abortion argument!" And... they can't think that B.S. works, right?
Dafuq?
Moviebob, Science™ nerd: ...Science doesn't "get it perfect on the first try" [...] that's how "scientific method" works...
Quotation marks around scientific method? That reads as if Moviebob thinks the scientific method is bunk.
(Personal note: Unlike Moviebob, the scientific method actually is capable of improving people's quality of life.)
Moviebob, noted eugenicist: ...if you're snarking about fast-moving technology in bleeding edge bioethics and you're a conservative on "FOX?" [...] YOUR ideology is a fairy tale.
The only fairy tale I see is Moviebob portraying himself as a hero for humanity. And, for the love of all that is good, could Bob PLEASE stop learn that the question mark should go OUTSIDE the quotation marks?
Moviebob, Islamofascist: The only think that will keep the continued existence of Evangelical Conservatives in America [...] in the 21st Century [...] is that they were still killing people over it.
Positron: I don't know who is the "unhinged" one.
Correct answer as to who's "unhinged": Moviebob. Been that way since 2015.
Neal Katyal, lawyer: It is good enough to democratically enshrine Roe [vs. Wade] into law [...] especially when such legislation preserves the status quo on reproductive rights...
Moviebob, eugenics specialist: This was either going to end one of two ways: Either you enshrine abortion as a right into law (no restrictions--it's a medical procedure like anything else, fuck superstitions this is the real world)...
Since when has Moviebob been living in the real world?
Moviebob, self-licensed OB-GYN: ...OR it becomes a state-by-state thing and the Red States collapse.
Oh, like the blue-governed homeless havens like Los Angeles and San Francisco, you ignorant fuck?
Moviebob, despot fanboy: ...because the 21st Century is a knowledge economy and no thinking fully-evolved human wants to live under an anti-science dicctatorship...
That's why no self-respecting person wants a Moviebobocracy; it's a literal dictatorship in the making!
Moviebob, perpetual asshole: ...before you tell me it's MEAN [...] to [...] anti-choice church folk [...] these people are eating HORSE PASTE instead of a free vaccine because [...] Joe Rogan said the past was OK.
Dear Moviebob:
---
Positron: I don't know how policies that uplifts (whatever that verb means) [pluralized N-word] or genderqueers can help us save money, but then I'm not Properly Evolved.
James Lindsey, culture critic: The left, unless it takes everything and destroy life as we know it in the process, is about to get blasted and lose so damn much of what it gained since the 1960s. [...] I have strong sympathies for many of these positions and will see their loss as a tragedy, but I won't mourn them. The Left betrayed the whole world.
Moviebob, cultural parasite: This would ne the "abstracts" version of the truism that Conservatives would rather spend MORE money, economy-wise, brutalizing the poor with expensive police and prison policies than SAVE money by enacting programs that's [sic] uplift certain races/genders/etc. they dislike.
A more accurate-to-reality description: "Democrats would rather SAVE money brutalizing police and prison policies and spend MORE money enacting programs that uplift certain races/genders/etc. they want votes from."
Positron: To Bobby's chagrin, China's authoritarianism finds favor in Fascists.
Moviebob, Sinophile cinephile: ..."State Capitalism" cosplaying as masculinist Communism, which right wing fascists like the Daily Wire goons ALWAYS find appealing because the not-cynically-faking-it version is the nexus point where their ideology and Marxism criss/cross [sic] each other [sic].
Positron: By Bobby's logic, China's $15-20B investment to uplift the masculine is bound to save them money in the future.
"Moviebob's logic" is an inherent contradiction.
The Verge: GoDaddy is cutting off Texas Right to Life's abortion 'whitstleblowing' website...
Moviebob, believer in whatever's convenient for him: Until knowledge defeats superstition, there can't [...] BE any permanent progress--so there ISN'T a "more important" fight. Not "class," not some theory, this is basic: Forward vs. backward. True vs. false. Thinkers vs. Believers™.
Let us know when you finally decide to join Team Forward, Bob.
Moviebob, believer of what he hears: ...it's GOOD that the "separation [of church and state] wording was later used as historic logic to inform decisions in the present, but we should do these things because they're RIGHT, not because dead guys in wigs happened to write it down once.
Wrong again, you dipshit! The concept of "separation of church and state" is a misinterpretation of the statement that "Congress shall make no law respecting the establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free practice thereof".
Positron: The Texan abortion law gives Big Tech a great opportunity to virtue signal, winning the unquestioned veneration of the likes of Bobby:
Brian Tyler Cohen, podcaster: BREAKING Lyft and Uber announce they will cover 100% of legal feed of drivers [...] sued for "aiding and abetting" under Texas' abortion law [...] they will donate $1 million to Planned Parenthood.
Moviebob, pod spawn: ...I think that's a new record for how fast we got to the "Temporary team-up with lower-tier bad guys to fight the REL, more existentially-threatening bad guys" part of the storyline.
Racist, eugenicist-supporting Boston-area film critic says "what?"
Moviebob: "What?"
Positron: ...Bobby's relationship status is "Creep".
I like to imagine Moviebob's relationship status is "under permanent restraining order".
Positron: About those "uplifting programs" that purportedly save money:
Twitter user TheExpertsSuck: The progressive democrats have been fully in charge in several cities for decades. From the city council to the school council. They have been failures over and over.

The Simpsons]
Positon: Game "journalism":
Mike Rouge, game journalist: ...working in media for over a decade has overall been exhausting and soul-crushing and thankless.
Moviebob, game "journalist": It's hard here, and it doesn't need to be.
There are hard-working journalists; there are those who work hard who aren't journalists; there are journalists who don't work hard; and there non-journalists those who hardly work. Moviebob falls in the lattermost category.
Part 3...
Positron: To the surprise of nobody, Bobby's "literacy" tweet is nothing but a pretense at literacy:
Moviebob, the unwise: Literacy is a mark of education, not intelligence or knowledge. I've learned to fight and survive from people who could FILL the textbooks they couldn't read.
If anyone were to release a book titled
The Wisdom of Moviebob Chipman, you'd have the copyright notices, a table of contents, and 500 blank pages. Well, the pages wouldn't be
completely blank; there's be page numbers in the bottom corners.
Positron: Bobby is a "technician" when it comes to morality; good and bad is all about plugging in numbers into a supposedly agnostic algorithm.
Moviebob, dreck-nician: Mechanisms are neutral. Morality is defined by and [sic] equation of who's operating the machine versus who its pointed at with a variable of who/what is providing the fun.
I'd hate to know what level(s) of immorality would result with Moviebob controlling the machine.
Moviebob, Democrat toady: ..."The Deep State" is [...] just a political term of art for "safeguards" (or "contingencies") that EVERYONE who's actually serious about their policy/government goals believes/hopes exists to one degree or another. [...] You should be MUCH more afraid of White Nationalists than "The Deep State."
Trusting the Deep State is more foolish than trusting the town drunkard as your liquor store's security guard.
Positron: Don't you know Bobby can be your fast friend?
Moviebob, friend to those who hate themselves: I [...] never end friendships on my own...
I can agree with Bob here, but only because Bob's likely crossed lines in his friendships that were never supposed to be crossed.
Here's part 4...
Moviebob, even worse parody of an already bad parody of reality: (I'd get into [...] the use of harm here, but... Babylon Bee? That's not a fair fight.)
Obviously, when Moviebob claims it's not a "fair fight", he's clearly losing the debate before it even begins.
Moviebob, "person": ...I don't need to crawl through a million [...] MAGA dweebs who *do* care about Twitter rations making sure I didn't miss anything from actual PEOPLE later on.
When Moviebob says "I [don't] miss anything from actual PEOPLE", what he really means is "I don't miss anything from corporations who cater to my every whim".
Positron: The lying, misogynistic coward tries to twist it as a pro-life / MAGA harassment:
Moviebob, misogynist coward: Big thread full of MAGA trash cackling about Texas and "babies"...
What a lot of pro-abortionists like the outspoken eugenicist Moviebob don't realize: They were babies too.
EXTREME IRONY WARNING!
The self-unaware Moviebob: "Someone was unkind to persons who I feel were not deserving gf unkindness."
DOUBLE EXTREME IRONY WARNING!
The VERY self-unaware Moviebob: "...crappy person who harassed people [...] sticking up for some scum of the Earth..."
And I'm spent...
