Like ffs. A coworker made an AI powered story reading app for his, is using the kids as test subjects to test the quality of the app and has said that the AI app can get his kids to open up more to it than to him or his wife about their issues. Another coworker finds this interesting.
A third in another separate conversation admitted to going to a white supremacist, neo-nazi concert of some singer and when I said ‘he is a nazi’ she straight up said ‘naah he isn’t people are just making things up’. There is literal evidence of him sieg heiling.
I can’t anymore, people are just in full on psychosis mode and they just don’t see it. I’m giving up on them for real.
I feel you. The sheer amount of not-even-crypto-anymore-fascism I have to navigate at work just keeps growing. Dudes proudly letting me know they watch Azov combat footage over lunch. Dudes going on a screed about immigrants and how we should take notes from the slightly more openly ethnonationalist country next door. Dudes glazing Milei, holy shit shut up we’re on the other side of the world. Dudes joking that I’m listening to ***** music in the morning with the hard R because they heard some hip-hop when I took off my headphones. Dudes being very concerned about the accurate portrayal of eUrOpEaN cUlTuRe in the new odyssey slop (a wholly original opinion they came up with based on their knowledge of Homer who they’ve totally read). Dudes absolutely do not rock.
At the very least these people that you mention are aware that they are full on racists, fascists etc. The people I deal with don’t even admit it, they just cower, hide and deny.
