I’d never heard that term until like two weeks ago and now it’s hexbear common parlance.

I love that SCP has infected the internet. It’s such a cool piece of collaborative media. There have been short films made and they don’t even suck!
Yeah it basically dragged cosmic horror away from the stagnation of Lovecraft’s legacy (no, tentacles and foreigners are not scary anymore) into contemporary postmodernism and absurdism.
I don’t dare look. Since you did, could you give a report from quarantine?
I warned you
A few minutes ago in the same episode, he was whining about volunteering there. His wife had to drag him there. He is lying to impress Elon Musk. That’s why they are laughing at his hypocrisy and trying to impress Elon Musk.
Apparently the episode is entirely about Elon musk being this charitable figure doing everything out of the goodness of his heart while being a supergenius on par with the show’s main cast.
All the comments are just gushing over Musk and taking the entire thing uncritically.
Think it is just one or two users using it, but they post a lot.
It’s definitely in my vocabulary now. It describes way too many people I know. The tech industry is awful.
I like it because it’s applicable to a specific subset of techbro, they aren’t even acolytes or priests in the imperialist death cult, unlike the techbro entrepreneurs they are more like slavish cultists, they don’t understand capital but they worship its most absurd and obscene aspects. They are the Musk fanboys and cryptobros that aren’t in on the grift, they are the marks.
We jokingly disparage being “terminally online” and there is a point where too much internet is definitely unhealthy, but there’s a sort of catharsis in the ability to view the whole political landscape, so long as you have a firm understanding of materialism. I feel better knowing all the dumbest/worst shit that is bubbling under the surface level discourse. The tools of dialectical and historical materialism can only be honed by applying them to even the most absurd and abstract forms of commodity fetishism and reactionary thought processes in addition to more “basic” forms of class conflict. The more data we can incorporate into our analysis the more useful it becomes.
Isn’t Bazinga from that show that mocked autistic people and nerds and was kind of rapey? Big Bang Theory, I think?
