Stubsack: weekly thread for sneers not worth an entire post, week ending Sunday 9 June 2024
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.

for the sneerclub fans, this vid about MS Satoshi was pretty funny. All the Adam Something videos are entertaining for a couch sneer https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dv4H4trnssc
Always a good sign when your big plan is virtually identical to L. Ron Hubbard's big plan in the 70s.
At least less people (allegedly) died in the remake plan.
for now
crypto in general has caused pretty large number of casualties, depending on how you count
Certainly, but I was specifically mentioning the woman who boarded the scientology boat, who has never been seen or heard of since who Scientology claims is fine, stop asking about her, she is doing great, better even! Allegedly. Like specific boat cult related things, not just a drill to head or locking down a hospital like the cryptocurrency deaths you hear about. (And even more indirectly than the hospital deaths, the slow cooking of the planet and upcoming climate disaster, welcome to the coolest summer of your life!)
about crypto deaths, i was thinking more in terms of sanctions evasion which fund iranian, nk and more recently russian weapon programs and continued existence of iranian morality police and such
Sure those too, I wasn't trying to make an all inclusive list, the shit is bad.
Which woman is that? I thought most of the "disappeared" of Scientology were the relatively high ranking sea org members who were purged after L Ron Hubbard died.
Oh yeah, she was disappeared after L.Ron died. By her husband, new Scientology supremo David Miscavige. I think she was last rumoured to be kept on one of Scientology's compounds but no one is totally sure - the LAPD did a welfare check on her back in 2013 but it turns out the fingerprints they took are all incomplete so it's difficult to tell if it was really her.
