Nah lol, not accusing you of anything. I just thought I’d go and take a look and see if I’d been duped by a photoshopped post but there it is, right at the top. Just below his description of “Professional Neckbeard” and pinned address where all the marks that support him can send him free stuff.

It’s literally the first unpinned post on his Twitter profile.

Here’s the most recent take of his that I’ve seen:

But he’s definitely a repeat offender in these circles.

I feel like in this case, it’s more than that. They’ve weaponized social media and successfully used that weapon within their own borders and now they’re targeting somewhere else. They want to freely push right wing ideologies and make right wing politicians look good everywhere. Says a lot that in order to achieve that, they need to do things like remove fact checking. But it’s been proven now that ‘alternate facts’ are very effective at convincing masses of people that you’re a free speech warrior while burning books in their faces, or that you care about the kids while campaigning for child marriage and child labour, just for a couple of examples.

It’s convinced working class people that union busting, eternally greedy, multi-billionaires are their ‘anti-establishment’ heroes. And it’s convinced whiny, insecure, porn addicted men that they’re all ‘alphas’, every one of them.

We’re entering an era where freedom=slavery and it didn’t even require any master plan or deception. All it relied on was the fact that people are inherently shitty and only see and hear what they want to see and hear. And it worked. The people they worship or openly slimeballs and garbage human beings for us all to see with our own eyes. But it worked.

Asmongold is one of these ‘anti-woke’ YouTubers. Spends a fair amount of time complaining about women not looking pretty enough for his standards from what I’ve seen, while he himself looks like a fucking rat, with a bedroom that looks like a rat’s nest. I hate downing people’s looks and I too, have been a depressed mess with a terrifying bedroom before. But also, people in glass houses shouldn’t throw stones.

I don’t actually follow any of these YouTubers and to be honest the only time I ever use YouTube is when I’m in the mood for some music videos but I’ve seen this asshat come up over and over in feminist spaces and places where people make fun of the anti-woke grifters and the idiot marks that adore them.

Because they’re evil, fascist, thought police for wanting to take away our god given right to tell entire groups of people that they’re subhuman on the internet. Unlike those valiant and heroic free speech and freedom of expression warriors that burn and ban books, police other people’s identities and cheer as a handful of conservative billionaires buy up all the free press and social platforms.

Edit: /s just in case.

Most of their design choices from 8 onwards have been pretty questionable. To me, the way they just slapped the new UI on top of the old UI with different things and ways to access them in each, just comes across as seriously half assed. Like they’re just not interested in putting the effort in anymore.

Even on Windows 11 (which I don’t use personally but have worked with), they ruined the old right click menu by slapping a new menu on top of it that has half the options. So you need to click “show more options” every damn time. Instead of cleaning up or upgrading the old menu a bit and maybe offering the option of customising it, they just hid it with a new, useless menu. And still haven’t learnt from Windows 8 because it still has that two different UI designs, half / half, new / old thing going for it.

As far as modern, nice looking, well designed desktop environments go, KDE puts Windows absolutely to shame these days.
