it's interesting talking to young men on the internet because they are, by a large majority, motivated by a gleeful and unfocused ressentiment towards basically everyone and everything. there is really very little concern for truth but more notably there is a semi-concious rejection of usefulness of action and of making things better.

the appeal of policies, actions or rhetoric is that punishment and cruelty are inflicted, that people and entities are laid low. they are not motivated by a desire for better things to happen, but for worse things to happen to those they resent. And they like being angry and resentful, they like it more than they like any hobby or activity or product.

#eg they would rather specific game developers suffer and even be killed than for good game developers to succeed #a huge appeal of AI art to young men is that it creates the desired consumable output while causing suffering.#they specifically like that it makes the lives of artists worse because they hate them more for “bad” art/behaviour #than they like the creators of “good” art #even if these people had money and power. even if they felt they were on top #they would still prioritise making those they resent suffer over benefiting themselves directly #it's obviously not all but wow is it a large portion #and the thing is you can actually have normal conversations #if you can break them out of their constant and self reinforcing outrage loops #the gender politics gap among zoomers is real my friends
