It's a depressing reminder of what I already knew. I think he was rewarded with a show because he has a marketable skill, not because he said something about "white replacement theory" once in a discord 10 years ago.

Nepenthe was enjoying the fucking show without problems before this “news” (not even news, just drama):

The world needs to know: when is psychicpebbles going to address the grave human atrocities he committed against black people centuries after he committed the grave atrocities against black people. He keeps making shows about a guy jerking off in space, I need him to acknowledge my pain, do the work, and engage in restorative action or else I won't be able to function as a full time stay-at-home womanchild. There's a lot at stake here if my pain isn't addressed.
And what exactly is the "harm" that they keep going on about? Let's take the absolute worst case scenario and benefit of the doubt - What if he believes that white people are being bred out of existence? Uhhh, where is the "harm" here? Nepenthe believes there's a worldwide conspiracy that white people coalesce into one groupthink unit to keep blacks impoverished and demoralized. In her case, there's actual intentionality and a characterization of malice here. In the former there's a thing that a guy believes is happening (or at least said as much, once, over 7 years ago) because numbers are going down. How is she reconciling a feeling of "harm" here with what she believes and obsesses over? ![]()

She has said worse stuff and in less forgiving situations, and just in the last 6 months. That includes outright antisemitism.

How is she reconciling a feeling of "harm" here with what she believes and obsesses over? at the root, there's practically no harm in anything they go on and on about every "harm" is like seven layers removed from what actual harm would represent, the slipperiest slope like, think about slurs and slightly chud-like attitudes, what's a disastrous scenario, absolute worst case in this context? wholesale return of american slavery and subjugation of black people which happens when enough people believe that black people are subhuman and they have the institutional power to subjugate which happens when there aren't serious personal/legal consequences for physically mistreating black people which can only happen after they've spent long enough as a society without receiving pushback/consequences for speech that characterizes black people as subhuman, a society that truly believes in this which only happens after slurs have been normalized for so long that some people actually believe what's implied by them slurs only get normalized when people look up to others who say such things and they want to emulate them which leads us to arin hanson, the first brick leading to the top ![]()

Nepenthe's world also has to be incredibly black-and-white in the most literal sense:
Quote:Again, there are no cultural mechanisms for in-group admonishment for this kind of thing because bigotry has largely been advantageous to white people.In her history there's no within Census category bigotry like anti-Catholic bigotry apparently. This was arguably the defining component of American society for ~150 years, not slavery. Blacks weren't socially relevant until they moved north and began displacing the Irish/Italians/etc. from their prior lower class positions as those whites moved into the broader middle class. This is part of the challenge of knocking her off her unearned pedestal. You essentially have to teach American history to people who don't give a shit about it because it's not as simple as their narcissistic fantasies. And then they'd just deny it. Because there's no cultural mechanisms for in-group admonishment for this kind of thing because arrogant ignorance has largely been advantageous to the aggressive anti-social types. ![]()

and of course you can use the same chain of logic on practically any of their own behaviors
nepenthe loves lucio lucio represents a brazilian stereotype, perhaps a positive one but a one dimensional stereotype nonetheless so broad popularity of lucio leads to more companies deciding to make shallow representations of brazilians some of these representations are actually not so nice, but too many people love brazilian stereotypes now to recognize its problematic aspects over decades, an entire society grows to see brazilians in a negative subhuman light, that maybe ALL THEY ARE is the stereotypes they decide it's acceptable to treat them as such, and thousands of brazilians are kidnapped and forced to perform perverse pantomimes as if they are this far future degraded and corrupted vision of lucio this eventually escalates into full-on slavery good job nepenthe ![]() (06-22-2024, 01:23 AM)Uncle wrote: and of course you can use the same chain of logic on practically any of their own behaviorsFACT CHECK: This can't happen because her intentions are good and pure from her divine soul therefore nothing bad can come from anything she does or supports.

She thinks the dominant organizing paradigm of human history was something that wasn't even conceived until the 20th Century and almost solely localized in America.

So, I'm watching World War Z. I wonder how the whole Jerusalem scene would play out in the current climate. I would love to hear nepenthe's take on it since it basically casts the Jews as benevolent saviours and the Palestinians as the reason the zombies breach the wall.
