Unfortunately, their new album coming out tomorrow has a few song titles that are all too apt:

"Gas in the Tank"
"Knock 'em Dead"
"Shoot for Your Heart"
"Unleash the Beast"
"Crossing Borders"

whose Ukrainian friends aren't depressed and cynical tbh?

it’s all so utterly fucking depressing

thanks

hey Andy go fuck yourself, you imperialist pig

it's an outrage that calz and Comrade Alphabet have been banned and VHS gets to continue to spout hateful nonsense 24/7

I did make that point in admin log, but fellow ilxors apparently find that entirely acceptable. Why not turn the whole site into a traitor hunt, that’ll do wonders for engagement

Look can we just leave politics out of it?

I don’t go around thread insulting and attacking people tbf, I just happen to not think exactly like some very leftist ilxors do, if you consider not being part of your very niche mode of thinking to be ‘hateful’ then that’s between you and your conscience.

really, links about post-WWII reprisals?

we're like a week away from some people pulling out the skull calipers

you'd think so, and yet

I can’t imagine a worse combination for something disastrous than uninformed people + panicking + constant meaningless updates and yet Ukraine thread has gone the way of the covid threads, good work everyone.

i started getting the daily paper again a couple years ago and i gotta say, reading a whole bunch of news once a day is 10000x better for my mental & emotional health than paying attention to everything in the entire world all day long

I hear the nuclear power plant grew legs and is currently marching on Tokyo

OEO, yes, I think I personally was better off when "the news" meant the thump of the newspaper on my doorstep.

Nothing was really real until I read it in the paper. And things that happened after the paper went to press didn't reach me until the next day's doorstep-thump. Never watched TV news and probably never will

I can't say that this is an ethical position, and am not claiming any kind of moral superiority to consuming the news in that way. But given that I can't even begin to fix my own state, there's no way that my constant awareness of events will positively affect my nation or my world.

Hence, being updated constantly cannot plausibly be presented to me as an unalloyed moral good. The people of Ukraine (or Syria, or East Timor) are not aided in any way by my agony over their plight.

btw doomscrollers actually came up w/ a term to hate on people who share optimism that they don't - they call it "hopium" and ironically think this is a zing.

broadcast news has been a net negative for the world

I'm sure you'll figure it out.

*Reading about nuclear war in my newspaper 12 hours after it started over my morning coffee and bowl of Cornflakes*

Sounds bad..

Snap, crackle and pop indeed.

non-proliferation treats

It's really no worse than praising them for the opposite.

Meh, seems like projection.

The thread will survive without people posting tweets from every dickhead they see on Twitter, I promise you.

See if I came from a country that was profiting from misery and devastation to Yemeni people, I would probably not take such a smug and tasteless attitude to the idea of peace…and yet…

Alas the double posts are my own fault, ty weird GET error

all of these thoughts are expressed with more nuance and extrapolation in ShariVari's post. why can't we just leave it there, and save the chest-beating for our posts about Skinny Puppy?

Tell that to everyone who can’t stop posting in that thread
