    Hopefully there are logs that date back to the early 80's so I can contrast then.

    These are all unironically good takes and people who worship the system of employment to survive are dumb and make life worse for the rest of us.

    I put this up on Twitter recently. Frankly, I read mostly about the different victims and survivors of the Holocaust in the 2000-to-2002 editions of Encarta and Encarta Africana. The stuff about Dr. Hirscheld was new to me.

    And to connect this to the discussion of Nietzsche, I don't think he inspired Hitler. I think Hitler was too stupid to know much about Nietzsche.

    The clickbait army on YouTube is one going after Freddie Prince Jr. and he’s having non of it. It’s kinda great. Right wing clickbaiters are the scum of the earth. Clickbait in general really. But the thing I most hate is hypocrites. These people say they hate cancel culture but try to get Freddie canceled because he called people out. What a surprise

    The worst thing about Twitter is that worthless NEETs now get to **** their shower thoughts out to other NEETs.

    You would be in error there. Hitler was a dangerously intelligent man, capable of articulating far more complex thought than his mass speeches let on, and had a capacity to absorb and exploit knowledge that often surprised his entourage.

    What he wasn't, however, was a hard worker when it came to subjects that didn't interest him.

    All the high ranking Nazis actually had above average intelligence (assuming we’re working off IQ scores). It just goes to show that intelligence isn’t an insulation against prejudiced and conspiratorial thinking.

    Apparently even that raving lunatic was above average.

    Some people had issue with Freddie Prince Jr voicing Caleb Dume in the Bad Batch first episode, because he's a young Padawan compared to Rebels and he doesn't change his voice particularly to suit that.
    So it does kinda sound like a kid with the voice of a man in his 40s.

    Freddie simply hit back at the ones who were rude to him.

    Nothing new really though.

    He went on a podcast a year or so ago and did a big rant about fan toxicity that upset many of the toxic fans.

    He's not bothered by them, there's always a section of social media that gets mad about something.

    Humor me, what’s an arl******? And what’s obtuse? I know, no one wants to hear about success stories or people making it. Eeew. Doesn’t fit the endlessly whiny agenda.

    " And what’s obtuse?"

    Most posters would get the benefit of the doubt on a statement like that, but that's all been long since burned through.

    And most grade school educations teach how to find out what a word one doesn't know means.

    Literally on top of the page when you Google "obtuse":

    obtuse
    /əbˈtjuːs/
    See definitions in:
    All
    Geometry
    Biology
    adjective
    1. 1.
      annoyingly insensitive or slow to understand.
      "he wondered if the doctor was being deliberately obtuse"

    I was going by what Kershaw said.

    https://tdkehoe.medium.com/thirteen-similarities-between-donald-trump-and-adolf-hitler-3a97a8055dde

    More so this notion that he was not good at administration. I misspoke.
