    Go harder. If we keep projecting the graph to lower dimensions until there’s just a point then you don’t have to waste a bullet on me anymore. Honestly we could simplify a lot of things this way. If you simplify enough you only need one of anything and you have everything. Bam. Post scarcity society and all of a sudden you don’t have to shoot me again.

    When do I get to join Special Circumstances?

    Edit: I’m confused about if you guys are in support of the massive oversimplification of the horseshoe bullshit or are getting a head start.

      We don’t support the horseshoe BS at all — they were obviously being sarcastic

        And I was agreeing with them that it’s bullshit.

        And teasing you guys for wanting to kill me.

          teasing you guys for wanting to kill me.

          That's SS propaganda

          Sorry, just watched Valkyrie. In seriousness, though, we don’t want to kill you, although we’d hope you read what we really want. Even the anticommunists admit we’re not hiding it.

            I know you don’t. I’m teasing you guys. You’ve got consistent ethics and an objective analysis so I don’t feel off kilter fucking with you. Just let me burn some government buildings during the revolution and we’ll be good.

        It’s all good. When people cite horseshoe theory they’re taking a point in n-dimensional space and projecting it down to 1 dimension then manipulating it in two dimensions to claim they’re the same view. If we use the standard auth/libertarian 2d one, they took auth left and right to call you nazis. It’s braindead. Yeah. They’re both auth. That’s how fucking graphs work. Having to project it down to lower dimensions is just stunningly stupid.

        I’m a voluntarist, but I share a lot of values and ethics with you guys so when some fuck whose political philosophy is probably just anything Trump doesn’t like comes in and pulls that shit I get a little frisky.

            None of those are big words or difficult concepts. The first comment was entirely casual. They asked me to explain. I don’t think I necessarily even used the right terms, but I used the words I’m familiar with. I was legitimately trying to explain why I hate horseshoe people. You’ve got one thing right, though, all of my social ‘skills’ are learned via trial and error. They don’t make pills for that.

                It’s all good. My vocabulary is from being involved in measuring/inspecting parts for almost two decades as well as modeling and some light scripting/programming. I’m sure someone with actual math education could make it sound less silly.

                Have a good one, tho.
