some swifties got butthurt that i didn’t give a fuck about fox news pointing at her plane and crying hypocrite (because that shit’s been background noise for a long time) and the longer it went on the more deranged and unhinged they got. it was not unlike talking to maga folks and i think i’m just going to avoid talking to anyone about anything at all until the libs either calm the hell down or the fascists kill them all because i’m just done trying to understand these twits
I said, and this is copypasted, “imagine simping for a rich white celeb just because of who decided to hate them.”
I literally do not know what her music sounds like as I don’t care for pop music, and I can’t criticize what I haven’t heard, but please go on assuming the worst of the person pointing out the weird pearl-clutching.
i said “imagine simping for a rich white celeb just because of who decided to hate them” and i got berated for twelve hours about “attacking others with progressive language” or some shit, go off at me about purity tests for thinking celeb worship is cringe though.
getting dogpiled for 12 hours by leftier-than-thous couching everything in vocabulary words and refusing to explain what the hell they actually mean while describing you as “leftist maga” because you said simping for billionaires is cringe will do that to you.
also it’s fucking hilarious that you’re cutting this out as a feminism issue, as if fox doesn’t smear literally every liberal jet owner in this way. they’ve been doing it for 20+ years that I’ve been paying attention, starting with Al Gore.
it was in response to a screencapped tweet about “Taylor out here making fox care about emissions” or similar - basically the same zero-effort take that is repeated literally any time fox falls back on the decades-old “omg private jet emissions HYPOCRITE!” chestnut. I think it was a completely fair shot, and if anyone in particular read that and felt insulted then frankly they need to examine their relationship to media, and not make it my problem.
“a true conversationalist” is the title of the comic, it was present in the template i used.
i was pretty frazzled and upset when i wrote that.
explanation if you care:
i’d just spend several hours being told in opaque language why was wrong and bad of me to describe a person in a meme that was shared as “simping for a billionaire based on who hates them”. the intended sentiment was that “X made Y mad and that’s good” is a crap take based on tribalism and celebrity worship, the sort of stuff culty right-wingers do. i was not allowed to explain myself, and accused of things like “engaging in bad faith”, “tearing down allies with the language of progressivism”, being “leftist MAGA” - none of which anyone cared to clarify to any degree. i also got my ass ridden by four separate people about “calling (specific person in chat) a simp”, because they commented before i did and assumed it was about them specifically. my explanation was rejected and i was treated like a liar and it was insisted that i accept that i’m an asshole and a bad leftist.
i didn’t go find swifties to provoke about it either, that’s fucking pointless - people are allowed to like things, and i do agree with your point about awareness. this happened in a mostly left-not-liberal politics chat that is one of the few places i bother talking politics online because folks there are normally very level-headed and willing to engage different viewpoints and try to understand what people mean instead of just reacting off the cuff. i was and continue to be baffled by the excessive, accusatory, and iresome reaction i got to a low-effort jab at an even lower-effort joke.
end of explanation, if you don’t care
but yeah its a shite meme and it hurts to look at. will likely delete.
thats like saying theyre wrong because words are spelled correctly yes the number is correct but the machine doesnt know what the hell it is, or what it’s for, or in any sense “understand” what it’s regurgitating to the user as evidenced by the fact that it listed it twice. “AI” doesn’t know anything, it just copy-pastes shit.
meanwhile i asked it to write a short simple hello world in a scripting language designed for children, and it spat out nothing but garbage. one of us is leaning on confirmation bias.
