Need to let loose a primal scream without collecting footnotes first? Have a sneer percolating in your system but not enough time/energy to make a whole post about it? Go forth and be mid: Welcome to the Stubsack, your first port of call for learning fresh Awful youāll near-instantly regret.
Any awful.systems sub may be subsneered in this subthread, techtakes or no.
If your sneer seems higher quality than you thought, feel free to cutānāpaste it into its own post ā thereās no quota for posting and the bar really isnāt that high.
The post Xitter web has spawned soo many āesotericā right wing freaks, but thereās no appropriate sneer-space for them. Iām talking redscare-ish, reality challenged āculture criticsā who write about everything but understand nothing. Iām talking about reply-guys who make the same 6 tweets about the same 3 subjects. Theyāre inescapable at this point, yet I donāt see them mocked (as much as they should be)
Like, there was one dude a while back who insisted that women couldnāt be surgeons because they didnāt believe in the moon or in stars? I think each and every one of these guys is uniquely fucked up and if I canāt escape them, I would love to sneer at them.
YouTube rolled out a new dogshit AI feature and it near-immediately accused someone of being the meme behind the slaughter:
āHey you said I maybe killed 5 children with murder drones on a mountain could you maybe not?ā

Oh gosh thatās such a corporate response.
Only realized that you didnāt make this up when I got to the link
itās absolutely fucked that the grammar and tone of Googleās response is so casual, and the proposed non-solution is so worthless, the whole post looks like parody ā I was convinced @sailor_sega_saturn@awful.systems must have been paraphrasing til I saw the screenshot of the original post and found out it was just a straight copy and paste
sorry you didnāt like that we implied youāre a child murderer. no takesie-backsies though! fill out this form we wonāt read if youāre really sure you didnāt like our fun experiment!
I wonder if giving responses so fucking ridiculous they look like a joke is a tactic on Googleās part to make complaints about the shit theyāre doing look ridiculous and overdramatic by association
