  • Sealioning (also sea-lioning and sea lioning) is a type of trolling or harassment that consists of pursuing people with relentless requests for evidence, often tangential or previously addressed, while maintaining a pretense of civility and sincerity (“I’m just trying to have a debate”), and feigning ignorance of the subject matter.[5][6][7][8] It may take the form of "incessant, bad-faith

    The Wikipedia Page for it, actually contains this very comic.

    You know how rabbits eat their own shit? …and the shit is kind of round?

    Is that where Rabbits shitting chocolate eggs at Easter came from? Like a kid saw a rabbit doing that, and the parents had to come up with something so they said it was chocolate eggs… Then the kid wanted some… So the adults has to be like “that’s bad rabbit chocolate, it’s only good once a year”… Around easter time…

    … and you have to goto the garden and look for it.

    I mean democracy has never been real in The West. It always operates and constrains popular media, and cultural forces to constrain the resistance to Capitalism.

    It’s always coopted and cooperative with the forces of wealth and repression. So yeah, yell this shit on social media, maybe one day a diluted form will appear on CNN or NBC, but there’s no way it will go further than that.

    We’re along for the ride, censored, confined, robbed of time, money, power and lifeforce… And only existing to be used in someone else’s dreams of wealth extraction and labour exploitation.

    EDIT: people don’t understand manufacturing consent anymore.



  • I’m fine with downvotes, but often the problem with the left is not enough money… And it’s understandable if they’re always anti corporations and anticapitalist.

    But… It would be good to have more rich leftists and punks. They could treat workers better with stock sharing (like that Chobani company did that one time), or by letting the workers have more time off, or just have the company (making it a worker owned coop)… Or in a much more centist way, like Mark Cuban (probably not a leftist) making generic medicines more accessible.

    I’m just saying, a punk complaining about “corporate media” whilst valid, also feels cliche, and like a pathway to apathy, defeat, and being fairly voiceless in comparison to that corporate media (which is often loud, prevalent, and leans right).

    What if instead - there was a Punk company, that WAS a media “corporation”? They could push punk messages all the time, whilst being a source of money, art, culture, and sustainable messaging and events.

    I think that could be more punk, than the great traditions of amazing zines, in runs of 20 - 50 or less… and Yelling into a microphone and calling it music.

    I guess all punks of action must become antiheros, and no corporation can be completely without heirachy…

    …you know what, forget I said anything.

    I’m putting words in your mouth? You’re raising AI art and data centers when that’s nothing to do with the two statements I’m talking about.

    …and no, the things I posted aren’t responding to Hank Green (I never said they were), they’re about the specific statements. You can go to the latest SciShow episode about Ai and find the Maths Olympiad statement.

    You’re doing this because you want to talk past me to show boat for up votes. I don’t care about that man.

    You can goto his personal channel and find his lastes video on AI and find his statement saying AI will only get better from here.

    You want to have some dumb internet debate and pretend like I’m against Hank Green or pro AI or some shit.

    I pointed out two statements that are clearly wrong, that Hank Green is endorsing as true.

    I don’t give a shit about all this other crap you’ve raised to muddy the waters. So piss off.
