Don't be mean. I promise to do my best to judge that fairly.
I'm telling you, this is gonna be privacy's big year.
I changed my views over crypto for some part, although I still think rugpulls, NFTs, and scamcoins are also bad.
Try being a classicist... it's rough out here. Can't really say I love Greece and Rome without sounding insane.
Hydroponics as well I guess. My DIY automated grow room with a water pump, grow lights, heater and plant shaker (for pollination) always has people think I'm growing weed but I just want chillies and tomatoes.
Warhammer 40k. I like to paint little green guys and then move them around a battlefield.
A good half of the poeple in this hobby are almost entirely irredeemable
I can't wear my King of the Hill shirts anymore because I don't want people to think I'm a trumpster.
Offroading.
Like, I just want to spend too much money breaking my truck to go play in the mud or camping in the middle of nowhere on the weekend, not throw massive alcohol fueled frat parties in the desert and annihilate the environment in my jacked-up, curb princess of a Ram covered in a thousand miniature suns and "~~Don't tread on me~~ Please tread on me, daddy" stickers
Funny you mention that... we (from CA) went to AZ over Christmas to do some trail driving, and on Christmas day, I literally watched no less than 4 people in let's go brandon and 3 percenter stickers on their UTVs aggressively yell "Merry Christmas" at me right after they saw my license plate on my Jeep. I literally stood there and watched them look at the back of my Jeep, get a smirk, then yell it at me. 4 of them.
I'm not a right winger, but wtf... seriously? You have to be aggressive and confrontational because I'm from a state that Faux News decries as "liberal"?
Yeah I'm not here for this. I just felt this massive wave of fatigue wash over me as I read it.
Like it or not you're going to run into weirdos in just about every hobby. All preemptively judging people does is teach people to keep to themselves. We're already building up a society of loners where people struggle to connect to each other with various other causes(loss of third places for example). We don't really need something like this pushing people further apart, especially when that ultimately drives peoples empathy for each other down too.
Yeah, I have a fondness for Norse history but mostly from a sustainability perspective. The people who settled Iceland were incredibly efficient with their resources and I think we could learn a lot from the turf houses they built... But I am about as far left as a person can get. I want open boarders, worker co-ops, the abolishment of billionaires, free college / healthcare, and a slow and steady attempt to pursue communist goals.
I like 90% of the shit in this thread lol
Same. And I wish I would learn, but more often I'm just horrified after I make a new hobby friend then they say some bullshit.
Does programming count as a hobby? I waste my free time on it... There's this funny stereotype, of a queer programmer with long, quirky socks, and maybe even a fursona. Despite being a small percentage, such types are often overrepresented online. It used to bother me a little.
Nowadays I'm so, so glad when someone I'm talking to is part of that group. It usually means I don't need to worry about them being weirdly sexist, like women don't suffer enough in STEM already, or insisting that we need to keep politics out of tech (i.e. they want their politics to rule, unquestioned).
(Need something more tangible? Look no further than uncle bob. I've seen his books in classrooms, in the office, and let's not speak of online mentions. Can you imagine how many know or even read them, yet have no idea how screwed up he is?)
Silly feelings on my part? Perhaps. One less thing to worry about, though.
Not as bad, but people interested in Ancient Greece / Rome / classical studies tend to be somewhat conservative. It's (to some extent) the only part of academia which is overtly conservative.
But yeah, you can do a lot worse, that's relatively mild
The Roman empire is the first reich according to Nazis
So it is also the first red flag
Really? With all the gay sex?
Amateur Radio.
The first video I found on Baofeng Radio guides is on a youtube channel run by some right winger that sounds like a SovCit, who makes "jokes" about people who wear mask and have this "gay humor".
Like bruh
(I mean, I guess it makes sense. Right-wing "anarchists" are skeptical of "government control" and are the type of people to want to use radios instead of smartphones. Buts its ironic that encryption is illegal... But I assume they probably just ignore the "no encryption" rule anyways since they are a SovCit.)
I like shooting and having guns.
Shooting is fun. I like shooting disks.
"Well, I like Immigrant Song."
