In pop history, people learn that the Allies almost assassinated Hitler several times but each time went "oh no, he would be replaced with this even worse and more competent guy, call it off"
That is because the US government hired tons of Nazis after the war, that is Nazi propaganda.
In reality, Hitler's generals kept trying to kill the guy and failing through looney tune logic, because *fascists surround themselves with incompetent assholes constantly trying to fuck each other over*
There was no hypercompetent genius ready to be Ultra Hitler. Just a bunch of assholes.
He was surrounded by a dozen weird cliques of deeply stupid people each with their own stupid pet projects all angling at each other's throats.
And, a few decades later, people just totally forgot how much of a bumbling clusterfuck they all were.
"Ooh but what if it let UltraHitler emerge?"

I sometimes worry that too many people think being a good critic means being a self-righteous dick about every little thing and I think far too many miss the point that you can't critique anything if you don't know how to love something.
Guys I’m beginning to see a downside to financializing everything and turning the world into a casino

it's all just art. "porn" is just art that makes you horny, in precisely the way that "horror" is art that makes you scared and "metroidvania" is art that makes you write video essays

patreon and twitch using persona is extremely baffling because it's not even necessary for them to verify your age through biometric data when they're literally already asking for your fucking social security number and tax information btw

"Nazis were just regular people" is not a statement meant to evoke empathy or to excuse their crimes. It is a statement of warning.
The capacity to be part of and perpetrate atrocities is not limited to "monsters," it is wholly human. It is what we must always be aware of.
Bluesky should not get into this idea that blocking you is a problem. You can be blocked for any reason. You can be blocked because your pfp is annoying. You can be blocked because your vibe sucks.
If you take this personally I think that’s also a reason you can be blocked.
