To police the "alternative media" just as much is to acknowledge that /u/50Shades is functionally equivalent to the New York Times, which is something I don't think any of the IDW folks are comfortable doing

FWIW... I never claimed the hat was a "meta level phenomenon." It's something we can talk about on the meta level *or* the object level. I wasn't discounting "the other side," because I never disagreed with you re: the ubiquity of the object-level occurrence of tribal signaling.
I'm deeply frustrated with my own inability to communicate why I'm trying to keep these layers discrete. It's incredibly difficult to have these conversations as soon as I'm laying out a case for or against Dave Rubin, social harms caused by C-16, or pink hair, that convo is done

I get what you mean, I just think that if you don't see massive amounts of tribal signaling on the right and among the IDW, we are living in two different worlds. I might be a bit hypersensitive to it but I would submit that you are probably a bit hypersensitive to media behavior

Do you follow
@RogueNotary ? He's much better at seeing this stuff and communicating it, even though he's probably more anti-IDW than I am. - Show replies
