You mean to tell me that seeing songs being destroyed by nightcore doesn't make you cry?

Yesterday I had coffee with a bunch of recently graduated college educated liberal yuppies I knew from high school.

Never have I interacted with such a sleepy, boring, dispassionate group of people. It's almost as though these institutions are run by vampires. No wonder they're bending over for their southern invaders. Tried getting them to discuss politics and current events but they all "preferred not to think about it."

I mean if they're all like these the culture war is as good as won but goddamn is this a difficult lot to want to save.

with the ever-growing prevalence of the internet, i'd say the supposed "culture war" you're talking of has less to do with location and more with shared ideas via viral media

they're all probably wiped from complaining about things on tumblr until the wee hours
[12:59 AM] elm: yea honestly if you dont want to cum on elmer fudds bald head whats wrong with you
[07:49.46] <+slack> cum erupts from the dick at an alarming rate
[07:49.59] <+slack> it will blast off and slap the wall at like 40 mph

Oh yeah no doubt. It's just they mostly went to universities or small liberal arts colleges in New England and I can't shake the feeling that had something to do with it. They were so full of life when I last saw them five or so years ago.

And you say the culture war mostly happens online and you're right, but then stuff like this[1] and HWNDU happens.

It's incredibly stupid but they really did say it to their face faggot not online and saw what happened.

I would never invoke my actual political opinions in a conversation with old friends for risk of mortifying them or ruining our friendship, but I was at the very least interested in their perception of the world from a recently graduated college educated liberal yuppie point of view. They still presumably knew me as a liberal and general relativist and I'm surprisingly good at flying under the radar with my opinions. Maybe they saw through me. Their only clue that I was no longer one of them was my not having gone to college and being a fair sight poorer than them.

Scenes like the one at Berkeley I think arise due to a lack of willingness to have meaningful dialogue, combined with irreconcilable differences in life experience and probably aesthetics.

They also excel at removing signs and self-awareness:

Yeah I didn't really make my position clear. That's an accurate assessment I think though. A lot of alt-right rhetoric was born on humor websites in the first place.

Got any stories of people letting their political freak flags fly and ruining friendships?

Related and also topical. Gwoemul is about a monster that attacks Seoul and kidnaps a man's daughter, but the media are too busy creating hysteria over a virus outbreak to bother reporting on it.
