Have a sneer percolating in your system but not enough time/energy to make a whole post about it? Go forth and be mid!

Any awful.systems sub may be subsneered in this subthread, techtakes or no.

If your sneer seems higher quality than you thought, feel free to cut’n’paste it into its own post, there’s no quota for posting and the bar really isn’t that high

The post Xitter web has spawned soo many “esoteric” right wing freaks, but there’s no appropriate sneer-space for them. I’m talking redscare-ish, reality challenged “culture critics” who write about everything but understand nothing. I’m talking about reply-guys who make the same 6 tweets about the same 3 subjects. They’re inescapable at this point, yet I don’t see them mocked (as much as they should be)
Like, there was one dude a while back who insisted that women couldn’t be surgeons because they didn’t believe in the moon or in stars? I think each and every one of these guys is uniquely fucked up and if I can’t escape them, I would love to sneer at them.

Yeah.

I had parents that did this shit (and more). Emphasis on “had”: I walked the fuck away from the whole goddamn lot.

Does my fucking head in to see this kind of shit not only being given airtime but done so without criticism in the coverage.

At the risk of being sincere in the snark pit, hugs. Good for you for taking care of yourself.

I don’t understand why the wife does not simply consume her husband, a parenting style I’ve developed from observing the noble praying mantis in the wild.
