…Eric is wrong. The creator is German.
Eugen Rochko, Russian national who moved to Germany at age 11.
That’s his official story.
It’s not the most salient fact, but it sure is interesting. Not sure that’s who I want “saving” American discourse at this point.
This is it. Everything about this chain of tweets makes it the absolute worst take of all time. It is so terrible that it made me stop lurking and register to Hexbear.
Not only is it completely moronic, uninformed and tech-illiterate, it is also extremely xenophobic, Nazi-like, showcasing an absolute unshaken smugness, a complete unwillingness to learn, and a tendency to double down when called out even on basic facts.
It is the ultimate epitome of a smug shitlib propagandized to hell and back by the US military complex, who thinks he has the entire world figured out.
NOT ONLY THAT, but this guy is also:
- A Democrat, one of those people who supposedly want to “save America from fascism”, yet who speaks EXACTLY like an ethnonationalist.
- A “Geopolitics Analyst” with supposedly 20+ years of experience, one of the so-called “experts” of the West, demonstrating their utterly failing grasp on reality.
- A “game theory expert” and advisor to corporate and government executives on strategy, yet also a man who is so incredibly stupid that he hasn’t understood the first thing about Free and Open Source Software.
He is so absolutely, totally, and completely thoroughly deranged that even NAFO dog avatars and Cryptobros are taken aback by his dumbass posts. It wouldn’t surprise me if he later tried to claim he was hacked.
These tweets could be printed out, framed, and attached to humanity’s collective gravestone. I don’t think you could compile a better collage of the West’s utterly genocidal insanity if you tried.
These are the kinds of people advising those who call the shots. A representative of the people that will ride our species to extinction. The horseman of death himself. Abandon all hope – if you even had any left at this point.
I just popped on to post this here because it’s one of the takes that, like, actually disgusted me? Like, normally with unhinged people on the net, it’s funny. But this is a Respected Centrist DC analyst, following the same lines as fuckin internment camps. Ethnonationalist scumbag with the laughing-crying emoji strapped to his armband
Boy do I have news for you about DC centrists in government or government-adjacent positions
oh, I know, it’s just different to stare directly into the abyss, y’know?
So the guy who made the periodic table was… Russian.
Just FYI before you use any chemical elements.
fucking morons. they probably don’t even know how FOSS and federation make this (ignorant russophobia) a complete non-concern anyway
