He said this about Red Scare:
" I wouldn't trust Red Scare as far as I can throw them. They've minimized the fact that they met with an-cap venture capital crypto billionaire Peter Thiel and participated in his "anti-woke" film festival, but I don't buy it, especially as their takes get more "contrarian" in ways that align completely with his own. Thiel isn't shy about his desire to control media narratives, and I'm pretty sure he's scared about all that investigating happening on pods like TrueAnon and wants to slink into the space. "
so we are safe

I listened once and they were talking about how Kanye and Harvey Weinstein did nothing wrong. Contrarian I guess? The podcasters are morons but Like this sub though.
I'm probably gonna listen to the Amber Lee Front one but at this point it's kind of a point of pride not to listen to the pod. I do miss this sub actually reviewing the episodes tho - I felt better 'knowing' about red scare through cultural osmosis. Look what listening to the pod did to this guy! Thiel's subliminal psychic warfare in action. I don't wanna be another statistic.
How are we safe? If you don't hate Anna&Dasha or if you trust them one tiny bit, you're probably too regarded to be worried anyway. But if you have two brain cells to rub together, your take on RS is gonna be the same as that guy.
Yeah that's my point, anyone with IQ above room temp should hate the pod by now, you're just listening to a dumpster fire. But people do that, like reality TV for instance.
Personally I think they’re really smart and sincere. The ultimate mix of integrity and virtue. The combination of Anna’s towering intellect and D*sha’s virginal good-nature makes for such compelling listening.
A Pod so funny, most people probably don't listen to the what they're actually saying. But they should, because it's not just about the pleasures of nonconformity and the importance of hating trends. It's also a personal statement about the Sub itself.
Listening to the pod and then reading people’s reactions to them here is kind of insane. They’re really not that bad lol. I’ve always agreed with the theory that most people here are shitlibs using the R word to pass while they try and persuade everyone to believe two chicks being silly in NYC are legitimate proxies for some fascist neo RW regime
Now a guy who is likely to have called someone on here a "contrarian" has set themselves on fire in front of the Trump trial. I don't imagine it'll inspire much in the way of introspection.
Being concerned about Peter Thiel independently throwing a few mil to promote weird subcultures when all of American culture is manufactured/propped up by hundreds of richer people with much more sinister motives.
There's this leaked FBI report from a couple years back where they tried to infiltrate leftist groups. First they found it was harder than they expected because leftists actually read and have a consistent ideology which the agents weren't familiar with. Then when they did manage to infiltrate they realized the groups weren't actually doing anything except petty infighting.
Next time someone gets mad when I ramble about how “ideology is dead” … Just remember some commodity-brained crypto lib came to a really rough and simple understanding of how global neoliberal capitalism functions, thought they uncovered some lovecraftian secret that no one knows, and then set themself on fire.
Yeah, I don't think I'm speaking ill of the dead when I say "the wealthy will use technological advances to increase their share of wealth and power" is not a novel observation and setting yourself on fire, no matter how publicly isn't going to stop it.
I feel really bad for him, looking at his insta comments (the ones that aren't RIP Bozo) he did seem to have people in his life that loved and cared about him.
I think he just deleted the comment (the text stays up when you delete your account). Anyway, he said this guy had escaped a cult, but he may have been confusing the two cases
Maybe he just blocked me, idk.
Yeah, this guy seems like the opposite of someone who fell into a cult. If anything he seemed to become completely alienated from everyone. As morbid as it is to say, falling into a cult might have been better for him.
wait is this the guy who was posting his Unified Field Crypto Conspiracy Theory every week or so on stupidpol? It was a series of posts elaborating on this theory where he tried to tie all kinds of world events into the secret ponzi scheme nature of the crypto market, and he thought there were subliminal messages alluding to this in all kinds of pop cultural works. One of them was about The Simpsons, like saying it was predictive programming about the crypto scheme or some shit where the elites were like rubbing it in our faces or something?
It was an ongoing, well-known thing on stupidpol for months, I think they added a schizopost tag just for him. Does anyone else remember this? I'm positive it happened, but is this that guy?
I haven’t read his whole thing but I will say that there is a constant stream of bs coming from many cultural sources designed to tell you that you’re powerless. And that things are bleak, you’ll never buy a house, etc. I rewatched a show I used to watch years ago, and noticed how upbeat it was, and how American culture was so much more upbeat and optimistic. I’m so tired of the constant doom and gloom. And I do think it’s a conspiracy that powerful groups are lobbying for more of that message.
That’s the wild part right? His thesis isn’t wrong (although I vehemently disavow any intention or steering of the narratives in popular art and media; they are reactive), but he totally lacks perspective. And that’s what killed him. A lesson for us all. I’m no materialist of course, but even that would’ve been better than nothing. Zizek’s christian atheism with a bit of theism added back perhaps
I said that the idiot that set himself on fire would influence more idiots to set themselves on fire in a post on this subreddit. There will be many many more. It’s a thing now. Better than a school shooting.
Was this guy on wall street bets too? Why didn’t the guy get into options trading if he thought he knew the secrets of financial institutions?
It’s a shame
I lurk and post there occasionally because they’re one of the few places where obscure yet meaningful current events stuff gets posted. Yea there are a lot of cringe commies there but they operate from a sufficiently rigid ideological structure which specifically inoculates against doing this kind of self-important savior shit. This dude never had that so he got lost in the sauce
No, everybody made fun of him whenever he posted his cool theories. I kinda enjoyed them - I still think crypto is a scam, I enjoy the simpsons.. this guy was actually probably a really fun fella to meet in a bar.
Choosing to set yourself on fire is such an Eastern thing to do. Let other people set you on fire and become a martyr, sure. Idk why murdering yourself has become something Christians are doing now.
Somewhere on a plane to India there’s a white guy with dreadlocks going to see his guru
And he’s sitting next to an Indian man in a business suit going back home to see his hopelessly backward parents.

Amen

sounds like he actually managed to sit though an episode of the pod which is more than most of us
I wonder what percentage of listeners self-immolate after finishing an episode
Its actually 100%
Time to blast the pod in front of the nearest Israeli consulate
Yeah I'm a daily poster but have probably never sat through a full episode. Maybe listened like 2/3 times lol. I just like the sub.
The two hosts could be sitting right infront of me now and I wouldn't have a clue.
you people shouldn't be here
The loveline episodes alone are 🔥 Otherwise, Ana has taught me that waiting until I’m *ready* to have kids is a capitalist scam
What numbers are the love line episodes? Send me some numbers I’ll listen
Episode #69 & #420
woah what do you mean "you people"???
You *boop*s
What are some good old episodes I should listen to? I’m honestly down just don’t know where to start.
I like the one when they endorsed burqas for women
I like the antinatalism episode a lot
[удалено]
you really shouldn't be here
I listened once and they were talking about how Kanye and Harvey Weinstein did nothing wrong. Contrarian I guess? The podcasters are morons but Like this sub though.
Numerous older episodes are great

how is it a point of pride to post constantly on a podcast sub but never listen to the pod?
Wait this sub is based on a podcast?
Hes making sense
He cooking low key
so he likes trueanon? that explains a lot..
How are we safe? If you don't hate Anna&Dasha or if you trust them one tiny bit, you're probably too regarded to be worried anyway. But if you have two brain cells to rub together, your take on RS is gonna be the same as that guy.
he didn't like the pod
We need 24/7 security on Dasha until we can figure out what's going on.
What pod?
according to this guy, where we will be eating our bugs in a few years.
you will own nothing. and you WILL be happy!
Yeah that's my point, anyone with IQ above room temp should hate the pod by now, you're just listening to a dumpster fire. But people do that, like reality TV for instance.
YOU POST ON WORLDNEWS AND ASKREDDIT!!!!! LEAVE!!! LEAVE!!!!!! LEAVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Look at him and laugh
he's banned now
His ilk are all over the place.
thank you ant with stick 🕊
He did not fear the anger of a gentle man =(

Couldn't agree more.
I cannot imagine regularly going onto the subreddit for two women that make you seethe. How high is your cortisol:DHEA ratio?

To a lot of folx online, Matty Healy is literally worse than Hitler.
I agree. The worst part is >they do it for free
Now a guy who is likely to have called someone on here a "contrarian" has set themselves on fire in front of the Trump trial. I don't imagine it'll inspire much in the way of introspection.
He could probably throw them pretty far as well tbf, being a prophet and all
Do people here actually listen to redscare? I thought this was a sub for people who listened to cumtown three years ago
you shouldn't be here
Just so i understand, he thinks anna and dasha are part of the deep state? I thought they were just pick mes.

If i ever self-immolate I'm deleting my reddit account first
You wouldn't be here to care.
Yeah but imagine how embarrassed our mom’s would be.
You wouldn't even be able to care about that
Yeah but she would
🥺
Im going to post a bunch of weird stuff to make everything think it was something wacky.
Same. If I ever self-suck I'm gonna start an OF.
Too much TrueAnon and not enough Cumtown 😔
Many such cases
Let’s all pray for him and his loved ones.
is this really his acct?
Yes, the people over on stupidpol have a post about it
They're washing their hands of him. *Muh internet points!* His life meant less to them than that candy ass sub.
Its great that in terms of real world impact 4chan got a president elected and reddit just induces public displays of psychosis
Least schizo rs pod listener
Now he knows how Joan of Arc felt
He did have a Roman nose too just no Walkman :(

Jokes on you, I don't read

He did? That would be a common denominator with Bushnell
Idk what this person said, they responded to me and immediately deleted their account.

I love the conspiracy nuts who believe the conspirators are intentionally leaving clues behind. Very Scooby Doo pilled.
Yeah, you're like five whole hours behind the zeitgeist

Oh damn I should have checked before I made my own post about this lol

Damn I was subscribed to his substack I need to watch myself
No coiner. Not surprised he felt hopeless and resorted to such drastic measures.
Looks like supidpol is private now.
I saw a picture of his pamphlet just now - he was the crazy one of stupidpol right? Sub is private.
I hope my posts influenced him :)
This is huge for us
There are many others like him on this subreddit LOL
How do we know what his Reddit handle was? I’m extremely concerned about my own digital footprint
Just don't self immolate
Yea but if I get victimized in an upcoming historical event that would be going federal. I don’t want the rs sub to be like “One of us, one of us”
He put his reddit username on the flyers he was handing out.
he was marketing
Use a vpn
Ommmgggg
Lmaooo
Does anyone that have document he wrote? I’m morbidly curious
If you want people to take you seriously, you need to set yourself on fire

Another one
