Meme format using a promotional still of Giancarlo Esposito, known for playing Gus Fring in Breaking Bad/Better Call Saul, wearing a suit and adjusting his tie with an intense expression. Text reads: "YOU DREAM OF BUILDING B2B SAAS / I DREAM OF KILLING B2B SAAS / WE ARE NOT THE SAME"

Black and white retro 1950s-style illustration of a woman with styled hair and hair ribbon, wearing a striped top, holding a teacup and saucer with an exaggerated cheerful smile. Text reads: "Epstein's clients aren't in jail. They're busy creating a social credit system for you. You know that, right?"

"Always Has Been" meme showing two astronauts in space looking at Earth. Text on Earth reads "Culture War" in red outlined letters. The left astronaut says "Wait, it's all a PsyOp?" The right astronaut, labeled "ELITE PEDOPHILE CABAL," points a gun at the left astronaut while saying "Always has been" in the top right corner. The meme presents a conspiracy theory perspective suggesting culture war topics are orchestrated psychological operations.

You know which anti-AI people are true lunatics? The ones who oppose even alt-text generation. These hosers will be like “you gotta construct bespoke alt-text for every image or else you don’t actually truly care about people who use screen readers”

Conspiracy theorist meme: A person with curly dark hair and facial hair, wearing a light blue shirt, stands with arms spread wide in an animated gesture in front of a wall covered with papers, photos, and red string connecting them in conspiracy-board style. Yellow text with black outline reads: "An Elite Pedophile Cabal created the Culture War to distract us from the Elite Pedophile Cabal. They also got uneducated Americans & tinfoil hats screaming about the Elite Pedophile Cabal so that educated Americans would roll their eyes at the idea of an Elite Pedophile Cabal."

What people seem to forget behind the Westphalian illusion is that countries are just convenient fictions. All civilizations are merely sets of cities in a geographical region cooperating in the aggregate. Conversely, ICE is comprised literally of the antithesis of civilization: \this guy\

Muh root problem
A two-panel meme using The Office template. Top panel shows someone holding two pieces of paper - one reading “Dealing with the root problem behind white nationalism” and the other “100 Nazi scalps.” Yellow text reads “Corporate needs you to find the differences between this picture and this picture.” Bottom panel shows Pam Beesly responding with yellow text that reads “They’re the same picture.“​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Image shows Mark Carney at World Economic Forum in Davos, wearing formal business attire with black traditional cap reminiscent of Nehru cap, speaking at podium with blurred WEF logo background. Visual parallel suggests positioning as economic Nehru—elite mediator claiming non-aligned moral authority between US-China blocs while maintaining establishment credentials. Social media post by @rishi_veda commenting on Carney’s involvement with Non Aligned Movement.

TIL Canada is a less moral entity in the eyes of America’s Wokescolds for doing tit-for-tat tariffs instead of tariffing back for fighting their homegrown fascism.

A man kneeling on the ground sets up a domino effect with white blocks. The largest block is labeled “The fall of the western world order,” followed by progressively smaller blocks representing intermediate steps, leading to the smallest block labeled “Gamergate.” The man is labeled “Culture Warriors,” suggesting the meme format where someone attributes a large consequence to a disproportionately small cause.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

> American leftoids conditional about solidarity with Euros and Canucks when American foreign policy impacted them > American leftoids require absolute fealty when things are bad at home The revealed behaviour itself indicates solidarity is earned as a form of social currency on the American left

1/ How do you know if you're dealing with an AI bubble backed by irrational exuberance? The current market optimism is predicated on metaphysical assumptions for which there is no evidence, and for which there will be no evidence.

Conservatives operate on the lower chakras, which is why they see themselves as separate from the universe. Liberals operate on the higher chakras, which is why they see themselves as part of the universe. This is probably also why Conservatives can’t handle second order thought.

Don’t go accusing randos of horseshoe theory if you can’t handle how they would respond to you. Feckless American progressive/libleft rats who would rather allow their democracy to be eaten by MAGAts. It’s a shame only AOC, Bernie, Gavin Newsom, and neocons understand the present American moment.

When Democrats have the opportunity to fight back, they run away. These people don’t see themselves as part of an existential crisis, or else their moral high horses would be forced to make messy decisions about what’s right/wrong atm. This is what ideology as religion looks like.
