Any non-Muslim who attends Free Palestine rallies and chants "From the river to the sea!" qualifies in my book.

when anti-Trump types used to use the phrase "Our Democracy."
They don't, still? I see a ton of similar phrasing on Reddit and such. I know they've long since memoryholed Project 2025 since none of their apocalyptic dooming actually came true.

Aren't futurists supposed to be optimistic? Like, isn't that pretty much a requirement for the job?

Why doesn't she just move to Liberia so she won't have to deal with any of those icky white men anymore?

Orwell pointed out that the English of his time were famous for their xenophobia, which went so far as to refuse to pronounce foreign words correctly.

Korean women seem, on the average, curvier than Japanese women (who are definitely too skinny for me.)

I recently got a permaban from Reddit for voicing no-no opinions, so the needle hasn't moved for me. If somebody was able to revert Reddit to its 2012-13 libertarian bent, then I'd be more optimistic.

Whenever I start to worry that I'm not a very successful or well-adjusted person, I just attend an anime screening at my local cinema and I'm like "actually, you know what? I'm fine."
Whenever I start feeling that way, I visit the lolcow zoo over at KiwiFarms. Heh.
I like CityData. It's one of the few places you can find honest assessments of neighborhoods which acknowledge their racial/ethnic demographics, something that has been completely taboo on Reddit and mainstream media for decades. (Even mentioning ethnicity outside of "bad thing happening, POC most affected" contexts gets you downvoted to oblivion and/or banned. (I've got a hunch that this is because the "intellectual elite" don't want the white hoi polloi to realize how far the Great Replacement has already gone.)) A nearby mid-rise apartment neighborhood called Mosaic has been overrun with Muslims for some reason, and a reddit comment that was quoted as calling it "Mosaicistan" was removed for "hate speech" or some such retarded reason.

Darwin, for example. MKC seems to have taken a few pages from his playbook.

Billy Joel
But he walked through Bedford Stuy alone!
Nobody mentioned Burt Bacharach and Hal David? And was Phil Spector disqualified because he killed someone?

Cuba too, unless Castro banned the game for some reason.

part of the reason for their rebrand is explicitly to disassociate from the more “neutral” NBC news brand (neutral in their own eyes, anyway).
And so that dissenters can no longer call it MSNPC.

It kind of worked in Argentina too, until it became clear that you can't remain rich forever if your economy is 100% based on cattle.

One of those cartoons has the ugliest, most australopithecine caricature Irishman I've ever seen.

Chevalier openly called for "Death to America" and for ending western civilization!! Letting her ANYWHERE near any sort of political power is like giving Brenton Tarrant a machine-gun. Frankly, I don't think I belong in a nation where such a specimen can be elected. It certainly is no longer the country I grew up in.

Iran will never agree to any treaty which explicitly guarantees Israel's right to peacefully exist. Most of the time the Iranians can't even bear to call Israel by its proper name; it's always "the Zionist entity".

I remember 2014 being the year of Gamergate and Ferguson, but I don't recall anything about ants.
1968-69 seems to have been the breaking point, with the endless Vietnam war and the rise of the counterculture, "The Population Bomb" and the environmentalist movement. New speculative fiction (the "New Wave") suddenly became a lot more pessimistic and a lot less fun to read. Air and water pollution was supposed to be on the verge of killing all the plants and wild animals. In contrast, I see deer in my backyard every day now (when they were an extraordinarily rare sight until the turn of the millennium), and even foxes occasionally. In the lower-density areas nearby, there have even been black bears. And the vegetation grows quickly enough that it's become a real nuisance, blocking even the view of the sky from indoors!
