| 1639336291686051840 | i think this is also possibly why, when @doctorow interviewed @GreatDismal about Zero History, and they discussed bohemia, they brought up 4chan as the last bohemia -- 4chan was at the time so repugnant that it couldn't easily be recuperated (until gamergate and trump) | 3 |

| 1640433927381721107 | @GreatDismal Me too. I was trained on a .22 at age 12. Safely handling, how to clean, how to shoot. It was never part of our identity beyond target shooting and some small game hunting. I was never told firearms solved any problem beyond making a hole in the bullseye. This cultural fetish... | 43 |

| 1640434671581372416 | @GreatDismal Is unrecognizable to me. I really didn't know anybody when growing up who thought or acted like this. It's weird, it's sad, it's deadly. | 22 |

| 1640358989362855937 | @GeorgeTakei @GreatDismal Religion. It makes people repress natural urges, which leads to neuroticism, often resulting in an unhealthy obsession w/sex (pro or con) & other people's genitalia. C.f. the Bible Belt; sex censorship, low edu standards, higher infant mortality, child rape, teen pregnancy, etc. | 15 |
