@takeshitakenji @sadcurmudgeon I do. Just about a month after it's actually written now. -

@nerthos Social in-groups versus social out-groups. The people socially acceptable in your groups versus the people whom are not. You can tell a lot of people by how they treat the latter. -

@nerthos Even Vox, who was as pro-Clinton as they came, has described the Democratic party as "a pile of smoking rubble" now. -

@purplehippo @verius @nerthos The shit-disturber in me wants to see how many people I'd trigger to violence if I wore a rainbow tshirt saying Lesbians for Trump.
Really, at this point, this absolutely appalling behaviour is only serving to me sympathetic to Trump when previously I had no love for either of the two major candidates. -

@sulman @purplehippo @verius Clickbait for the clickbait gods. Stir the pot. Fuck all the innocents whose blood are literally being shed right now in Oakland and elsewhere. They're the stepping stone to greater profits. -

@verius @purplehippo The modern media has been very authoritarian in bent, more than left or right, but other than that semantic quibble I agree with your observation. They'd be out for Clinton regardless. -

@verius @purplehippo @nerthos BBC is publicly owned in name only. A lot of private interests have had their piece of that pie for a long time now. -

@purplehippo @verius @nerthos Guardian is suddenly pushing really hard for "independent press" aka "we don't want to be in the employ of the Man anymore" - which can't have anything to do with the Man not being the social group in power anymore I'm sure. -

@verius @purplehippo @nerthos Puts me in mind of that excellent Scott Alexander article "I Can Tolerate Anything But The Outgroup" -

Now that I have some more IP space I might segment the instance into its own VM rather than sharing the VM with the main HA site. If I do I will give 24 hours notice and do it in the off-hours, however. -

@purplehippo @nerthos Dehumanization is a cancer the media has been all too happy to spread since they profit directly from promoting such rhetoric. It has become extremely effective clickbait. -

@verius @purplehippo @nerthos Even if he is literally saintly and enacts policies that are 100% pure goal he will be demonized regardless, not that I think he's in any danger of being that good, he isn't. But my point is, the Democrats and their supporters NEED him to be that bad, they find validation in that. -

@verius And not gone after "their side" or innocent bystanders. In case one cant tell from my posts, the latter really deeply bothers me. -

@verius Yeah its why I'm not sinking a huge amount of time into trying to resolve it, I just wanted to give you a heads-up. -

@verius Selfishness, which is a lot of these people's desires really, is not usually racially-motivated. Racism is sometimes the rationalization, or the excuse, but it is not the motivation. The motivation is the self. The violence in Oakland is just barbaric. They even brutalizing "their side" - going after Hillary supporters who refuse to be involved in viol… -

@verius You might have to remake the merge requests though, apparently the 500 errors on merge requests after importing a gitlab project are a known bug in the current gitlab version. -

@verius And thus it was revealed that all the rhetoric about Trump protestors being violent losers when Hillary won was mere projection. -

@verius Let me know if you have any issues! I wanted to switch to self-hosting given that git.gnu.io has been unstable of late. Now if there's any instability issues its entirely my fault :) -

@nerthos Meanwhile the authoritarians rioting in the streets are madness maddened all the more and driven only by unrestrained hate.
