    Do you want a fascist dicatorship? 'Cause letting assholes be dangerously wrong without pushback is how you get a fascist dictatorship.

      I have MAGA family members and it’s not just 1+1=5. It’s a word-vomit tsunami of absolute bullshit. And if you convince them that point 1/367 is not factual, they won’t accept that it disqualifies anything else (including the idea that he never tells lies), and you will have to re-prove that point 1/367 is not factual a few weeks later. It’s exhausting, and I’m fairly sure that is the point (and I’m fairly sure this is also an actual Russian propaganda technique called a “firehose of falsehoods”, regardless of whether it’s being used in that context).

        That’s when it’s time to shame, ridicule, ostracize, and exile. People like that do not deserve the benefits of living in a society.

    In a real job you suffer the consequences of letting something stupid happen.

      Yes and no. Sometimes letting someone be stupid means they’re quickly replaced by someone hopefully less stupid.

        What happens when the stupid person is in charge of hiring?

          They hired you, didn’t they?

          Then they hire someone more stupid so they can appear to be smart. Which makes it a smart move, which means they’re smart.

      Pff, past jobs I’ve been at, you got written up for not doing the stupid thing(policy related, nothing that would put you in actual danger).

    That’s probably not a bad approach in general, but sometimes shit matters.

        A couple of classics:

        • Limmy’s Show: Whats heavier a kilogram of steel or a kilogram of feathers
        • Bodybuilding forum: Full Body Workout Every Other Day?

          That full body workout took me days to read the last time. I felt like I was watching an epic soap opera and was trying to track all the characters until I realized that they all just needed to hug and communicate better

              Oh gosh, I’m not sure I could even sift my way through that much toxic masculinity and confidently-incorrect content to even derive a coherent tldr. I guess that everyone is wrong and this 16-year-old post now only serves as a mile marker on the unfortunate decline of online courtesy?

              They can’t reach agreement on how many days there are in a week, and everybody is calling everybody else fucking retards while doing it.
