deleted my account last year (?) and haven't missed it at all. i do have an account sitting there, and i'm following maybe six friends and some ~brands~, but nothing compels me to open it any more unless i want to search for something that's happening (tram crash, smoke erupting from the next block etc), but even then it's just a wall of guesswork/hot takes from randoms and unrelated spam ("The Top 10 iPhone 7 Problems shittyurl.com/kwjbsf #iphone #pneumoniagate #kanye #paralympics #tramcrash #obama")

Is Twitter only viewable to members now? I haven't been able to load any page of it for a few days now.

Urban Dictionary: flopsonwww.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=flopsonApr 13, 2009 - flopson. Someone who lacks the ability to get 'it' up. Jenny: "I pulled this guy last night, but sent him home...he was such a flopson!".

humorless thin-skinned white dude campus leftist crybaby who blocks everyone who disagrees with him

he quit twitter forever for like a week a while ago lol
― lag∞n, Friday, 16 September 2016 18:17 (seven years ago) link
his tone is so sanctimonious and blegh that even when i agree w him my instinct is to disagree
― flopson, Friday, 16 September 2016 18:22 (seven years ago) link
lol flopson I haven't gotten any notifications so either I commented on a dead thread or he's blocked me in some way on fb now
it was a comment about this article: http://thebaffler.com/salvos/degrasse-tyson-kriss-atheistshe somehow missed the point and was complaining that homophobic, racist evangelicals are a much bigger threat than atheists so why are you picking on atheists
― dr. mercurio arboria (mh 😏), Friday, 16 September 2016 18:34 (seven years ago) link
commented to this effect: imo if evangelical christianity disappeared tomorrow these people would still have the same in-group/out-group ideas and be just as racist/sexist/resistant to change
I mean, Trump is the great uniter of a bunch of these people and the far-right christian types fell over backward finding reasons to support his godless ways
― dr. mercurio arboria (mh 😏), Friday, 16 September 2016 18:36 (seven years ago) link
Sounds like his schtick. he seemed overly concerned with the efficacy of the movement ("don't wate time criticizing what i perceive as a lesser evil, focus on overthrowing capitalism!")
― flopson, Friday, 16 September 2016 19:10 (seven years ago) link
Which is typical orthodox leftbro humorless impenetrability to the tenets of intersectional anti-oppressive movements.
It's like Marxists have never heard of the strategy of "doing both"

get you a movement can do both

I think we were just talking about FDB on another thread but I can't remember which, and I find him very hit-or-miss.
Or like they're scared that if they question any aspect of their beliefs then the whole edifice might collapse

I started by following a bunch of liberal-to-left media people/bloggers etc. and so far my feed is kind of depressing, it's just this frenzy of people shitting themselves about trump's fallon appearance, trump's hotel thing, trump's hair, how the media should stop giving trump so much coverage, etc. I feel like there's a lot of denial going on about what the media is/are and about how good Trump is for it, even as its members express how upset they are over the phenomenon they are part of.
