[02:19:00] <chromas> There's a maga-yelp?
[02:19:32] <mrpg> There was.
[02:20:39] <AzumaHazuki> isn't it ironic how the ones who make the most noise about lefties needing "safe spaces" and playing the victim card and making everything political are the ones who most exhibit these very same behaviors?
[02:20:50] <Bytram> FatPhil: wrt to your dailymail link, this might be better: https://www.washingtonpost.com

[02:20:57] <AzumaHazuki> it's almost, almost, like projection, hypocrisy, and willful ignorance are the foundational bedrock of the alt-right
[02:21:26] <chromas> Is that anything like lefties calling everyone racis Nazis?
[02:21:50] <AzumaHazuki> sort of, except it's not true, whereas I find most of the people getting called Nazis actually do subscribe to white supremacist ideas
[02:22:38] <AzumaHazuki> i dunno, chromas...if it waddles like a duck, quacks like a duck, and heils like it has no elbows, it's a neo-Nazi duck
[02:23:25] * Bytram is old enough to remember disco duck
[02:23:58] <chromas> Duck-typed supremacy. Aha! Python is the programming language of Nazis!

[20:45:18] <chromas> How many hours does it take swapoff to work?
