Goddamn. Imagine being so creatively bankrupt that you can’t even write a simple birthday message for a child without Robot Daddy’s help. I’m so glad the AI bubble is coming crashing down, it couldn’t have come sooner.

    The victim mentality has been a thing forever but lately people seem to be supporting it. I think this is the result of an overextension of the otherwise helpful trending attitude around being conscious of others’ mental health. I predict soon we’ll see a backlash against both the helpful and maladaptive versions of this attitude, championed by the “self-sufficient man” archetype-- think of the "Oh my god you people can’t do anything" tweet that this post’s title is referencing.

      I think that this is the backlash— the maladaptive use of the victim complex to further the agenda of the fascist as the “forever victim“ for anyone (let alone everyone) having dared had their revolting beliefs be challenged by reason.

      If you think there is a forthcoming backlash against this usage… perhaps. if so, it had better be fierce and unforgiving. maybe this could be the start of it, and it’s a long fucking time coming.

      Personally, I think it’s kind of an online toxicity thing. Everyone is always shitting on everyone else in the most aggressive way possible, so people get defensive out of habit. You also cannot shit on other people if you think there is even a possibility of being wrong, it requires utmost confidence; so it promotes a close-minded ideology. You can’t reflect while shitting on people, only in the toilet

      Trying to dunk on someone and getting Uno-reverse counter-dunked is like the epitome of online shame and embarrassment. So just never be wrong and determinedly double-down-dog dunk dubious drama
