Love that "lol fuck off" is a complete antithesis for this whole argument. And is also the correct amount of energy to expend on these fucking nerds
Classism, classism always stays the same.
Yup, those word are only spoken by the uneducated, the uncouth, the low borns. Fuck that shit.
If every other word out of someone’s mouth is a curse word, okay yeah that screams, making up for a limited vocabulary. But intentionally never cursing, you’re not big brained you’re an uptight dork.
Depends how they do it though. There are some very poetic uses of the repetitive "fuck"
Yeah context is everything. The “fuck” scene from The Wire is nothing but “fuck” and it’s a brilliant scene.
I wonder what relative meanings in different cultures would be to this person. I bet he has a bias...
Mostly thinking of
Their complements are slurs here.
It depends on context. You call an absolute legend a "mad removed" but someone who's being an absolute drongo you call them a "shit removed." If you see your mate Dazza down at the pub when you haven't seen him in donkey's years you say "Dazza you absolute piece of shit, how the bloody hell are you mate?"
Ye do realize words like c-unt have to be censored in Hexbear.... right?
Yeah, I just thought it was funnier if half my words got censored there.
Someone give this dork a wedgie
The kinds of thinking really go all around, it really confuses me as how said folk manage to create a coherent understanding
These types tend to think that statements like "cursing is giving in to animalistic instincts" are self evident truths of the universe - essentially claiming that only animals have emotional responses to anything, and that humans are special in their ability to view things impartially. These same people also get very defensive when you call them a fucking idiot, and then mad when you call out their "animalistic instincts".
Yea where do you draw the line.
Curses aren't all about strong emotions and all words about strong emotions aren't curses.
I'd love to hear the author square that you can't say anything that is a result of animalistic instincts and why its ok to tell somebody you love them.
I won't sit down to eat with someone who doesn't cuss.
I mean, I understand if it's their personal choice, but it's like someone who went through AA. I understand you can't drink, but I don't appreciate you sitting there in judgement of me of the two drinks I had at dinner after not having any alcohol for weeks.
"Shit's fucked" - Plato
White male imperial core labor aristocrat says tone it down. All Tone Police Are Bastards.
Fuck that shit
Doesn’t the logic of the ~~second~~ third screen cap on veganism apply to their logic on cursing? I’m not taking the easy route linguistically, ergo my verbal chasteness is a sign of my intellectual/moral superiority.
Huh, I re-read it multiple times and I'm not seeing it. I must be intellectually inferior.
Really though, uh could you help me understand what you meant?
Crap I meant the third capture
what a piece of shit
I made the decision to totally cut obscenities out from my speech.
also:
t-slur
pick one tech bro
also bash tutorials are inherently conservative. embrace structured text, reject reactionary 40-year-old-shell fetishism
also bash tutorials are inherently conservative. embrace structured text, reject reactionary 40-year-old-shell fetishism
Finally someone gets it, we need more tutorials in the woke Fish shell instead of "how do I do if statements again in Bash" /j
I always thought the explanation of exploitation was precise, working from Engel's explanation of primitive communism with a historical understanding really clarifies things.
Slavery is definitely clear, not sure where that one came from. You got serfs, chattel slavery, domestic servitude, uhh others... look the US State Dept website has an explainer on modern slavery, if the historical stuff is a bit confusing.
No one is going to fire a plumber because he says [transphobia]
Oh my god is luke smith still fucking chugging? lol, lmao
I remember this guy from back in the earlier days of linux and linux gaming related media. When gamingonlinux was just taking off, linux gamecastweekly had been rolling for a bit, brian lunduke hadn't shown his entire ass to everyone. I could smell /g/ stained libertarian bullshit coming off this guy from miles away. Last I heard he had fucked off into the woods trying to do some kind of trad retvrn shit.
If you're into linux and free software it's either full on commie transgender free everything and everyone destroy capitalism, or just the most insane libertarian shitheads.
no, you're forgetting templeos, although maybe the only one of us who could do it is gone...
Reading this guy's insufferable blog and was reminded of a greentext I saw years ago and saved, it sums up so many of these dudes:
Be highschooler
Sit every day playing vidya and doing homework in suburban two story
Never go out because no friends
Never have interesting experiences
Girl I like won't look at me because I'm a silent, boring, slender starchman with no personality
People who do drugs and have sex are more personable and appealing
Nurse hatred of peers
Become trad christian larper
Read hours of old, tired punditry from the 90s denouncing anything pleasurable
Spend every other hour shitflinging online as a caricature of naive, unironic puritanism
Know my views are ridiculous but I'm lashing out at people for not paying attention to me anyway
Refuse to broaden my horizons or do anything that my beguile someone to have an interest in me
Double down on trying to make an identity out of being a gelded, passionless clown
Die a sad virgin convinced cultivating the kind of empty moral superiority that was a cartoonish mockery of real people to begin with
Many such cases
wow it is sorta accurate for quite a few folks I've engaged with.
does "starchman" mean
I never saw that word before, if it is I'm surprised at the self-awareness
the author was mocking tradcath types, starchman I think just means stiff or rigid like starchy clothes
The person making the original greentext was probably making fun of these sorts of people, so it wasn't self-awareness.
I swear a lot of the time because I'm fucking angry. It helps me vent and it helps keep my sentences simpler. People understand that most of not all of my rage is at situations in the news or not in the news but should be. If I write "I swear a lot of the time because I'm angry..." - it could cause confusion. I could be talking about my personal life.
I do admit it's a cheapie way to make jokes too.
There might be times when it's proper for someone to react in righteous anger, but those are in reality so rare as to only happen in life-and-death situations.
I get the sense this guy doesn't have much empathy. If your eyes are open to the world - "so rare" entirely wrong. Not only that - situations can come up every darn day.

I googled him.
Who is Luke Smith and why I'm seeing him everywhere? : linuxmasterrace
A comment I noticed. I have no context so I don't have any idea how accurate/inaccurate it is...
A hateful religious nut-job that occasionally makes a Linux video, then asks you for a donation to himself for introducing you to someone else's work.
"someone else's work" <- this out into words really well the way I think of him, thanks for the share
I think that's exactly why certain words are considered obscene or inappropriate- to tone police and shutdown righteous anger. It forces us to stifle the rage we feel towards the bullshit around us in response, as well.
No fun allowed, it means you aren't intelligent
I find a well placed obscenity to be like a bite of pineapple on the pizza actually
Ah, the old "I am a perfect emotionless vulcan, unlike the person i'm arguing with"
I will continue to use obscenities as I please as a show of disdain for social mores and norms
what a fucking nerd
I can understand the desire to not use obscenities personally, but nobody likes that guy that got sober and still comes to the party and tries to convince everyone there that they should too.
People have completely lost the ability to realize that other people have different lives and opinions. I wonder if it's because an amount of people have fascist views and people have compartmentalized their worldview as a reaction to others having objectively shitty views. This isn't that though. This is like some people not liking honey mustard and then going on a crusade against something so meaningless
I swear pretty openly, although I do try to keep it limited to certain situations. This isn't because I think swearing is bad, but because I realize that it increases the punch of the swear if it's by itself and not surrounded on all sides by similar words.
the casual usage of psychology as an explanation
If there's been a through-line in my adult life, it's that everything I learned in Psych 101 has turned out to be completely wrong. Maybe it's my fault for misremembering everything, but I aced that course so I feel like it's more likely it was the material that was wrong.
Anyway I share your feeling that if things had turned out a bit different I would totally be one of these guys. Getting into socialism has made me be a better person by pushing me to be critical of my own reactionary impulses, which I used to dress up in semiscientific language based on completely wrong things I learned at some point or another.
