That doesn't read like a left wing troll account to me, it reads like a right wing troll account rather blatantly strawmanning jews.

(Of course one could also argue that exactly none of them were Jewish in the religious sense, as Bolshevik Party required strict atheism of all of its members anyhow...)
As the joke goes:
"What are you worried about? Your documents say 'Russian'!"
"So? They're gonna break my face, not my documents!"
(Lost in translation: the ambiguity between "hit in the face" and "hit according to the face")

Would probably be допереключаетесь, unless the man had already допереключался and is now in the KGB torture room where he is addressed more rudely and informally.

If you subscribe to the pendulum theory of social progress, then it can be explained as "during Henry Ford the pendulum was against the Jews yet swinging towards them, while now the pendulum is in favor of Jews and they're expecting it to fall back any second now".

I personally would like there to be more nuance to the discourse here than "communism is when the slightest amount of redistribution" (I exaggerate for effect here, but still).

Not him, but I'd ignore the pedo part (why are we censoring ourselves here again?) because the "satanic" art is pretty much not evil without the pedo part, and the pedo part would be exactly as evil without the "satanic" art part.

Still following Pale and not much else of note. It's a fairly interesting exploration of the struggle for justice and peace (along with the contradictions between the two) in a world where Right does make Might, but not quite all the way, if you don't mind the noticeably Blue Tribe author and themes. It's also a novel about magical girls.

You ask that question after bearing witness to tons of people suddenly concerned about "killing grandma" (i.e. marginally contributing to grandma's statistically likely demise)?
Old people dying is nothing new. Old people dying in a way that someone can be stuck with the blame for it, on the other hand...

I suppose they really want you to have the skill of programming during that 1% of time you're going to actually use it?

And what do programmers do? Come on man, you are typing this out on a fucking website, which didn't appear out of thin air. Just look around you.
I had this question when I was picking my university. "Looking around you" doesn't work if you want to know what programmers do on a day to day basis. I'd want to know what my average day at work would look like.

When people apply the ephebophilia sneer to situations less like "30 and 15" and more like "19 and 17", it devalues the sneer. Would you claim there is no difference to those two acts of fucking someone who's underage?
Destroying distinction between acts that might be disgusting and acts that are disgusting is how you make people wonder "wait, is it really that bad this time?"

Having a [possibly exaggerated or wrong] model of what a racist/queerphobe thinks in one's mind is not the same as being one.

No, I mean in the sense of "those whites are acting racist and racists are acting in favor of whites, therefore conflating the labels" like the parent comment said about gay/trans people and pedos.

Why do we have "private profiles" here? It seems to serve no function other than to make it obnoxious to look up someone's comments. Given that everyone can see your comments anyway right there in the threads, it hardly does anything for privacy.

There's shitting on them and then there's accepting the shit on our face just because something something good guests. The West should not have come to Qatar for that event and let Qatar be worse off for it.

No, the question, or rather the offer is: then disprove them. "My enemies are wrong and believe untruths" is what everyone believes and carries no information.

Outsiders draw no special condemnation because trouble is expected from outsiders. Those of native culture are held to a higher standard.

I do not fault military aged men for GTFOing along with their family if they do not believe there is anything good left to defend. (Or if there is hardly any defending required of them, as is the case in Russia).

I can just as well say that the conflation of whites and racists is done primarily by whites, racists and white racists themselves. I suspect I would even find a few people here who would eagerly act as a case in point.

At home, I usually make a mug in a Turkish coffee pot. I buy pre-ground coffee and almost certainly don't follow the "correct" technique, but it's good enough. Now and then I top it up with some condensed milk.
At work or when I'm particularly lazy at home I make instant coffee.
At coffee shops I usually get a latte or a flat white. Plain Americanos are always way too watery.

Even among WEIRD urbanites willing to sign up for a study to discuss masturbation habits (which is surely biasing the numbers way upward) only 38% of women masturbated.
Not convinced that it would bias the numbers upward. Without further info, just as likely that those who don't masturbate are more likely to sign up for such a study (they have nothing to hide).
For any woman who doesn't masturbate, I would assume it's less due to her being non-horny, and more due to her getting enough sex that she doesn't need to go solo.

I cannot comment on CP use. However, I've always heard that watching regular porn decreases your drive to go find regular sex. It does make sense to me.

Who is to say that a mythical god of knowledge or whoever Mimir is can't have ideas deviating from the norm? Or anyone, really. What has been written down and passed down as the zeitgeist of that era would have to be much more narrow than the real range of held beliefs.
There's also a lot of mockery in the memespace towards guys who would unironically answer that question with something like "Ana de Armas but a cup size higher and a gamer like me". At least, a lot in relation to women describing their ideal. As the line goes, "meanwhile they're just some guy".
