it's only cyberpunk if it's actually _punk_
if it isn't a criticism of capitalism and the protags are all cishet white guys that's just sparkling neon scifi
@haskal yeah, well Johnny Rotten backs Brexit so punk isn't punk either
@sidd_harth0_5h4h @haskal he was in the Sex Pistols
@sidd_harth0_5h4h @haskal wait was that a joke? shit
@LogicalDash @haskal johnny rotten isn't punk, punk eclipsed and renounced him a long time ago
i don't know of a single punk that still claims him
Are you honestly trying to argue that the Sex Pistols are the sum total of punk?
next question?
Why are you being an arse?
@hypolite @LogicalDash @haskal
I think you'll find it was.
@hypolite @LogicalDash @haskal
I find it hard to believe you're arguing in anything other than bad faith.
@hypolite @LogicalDash @haskal
I'm sorry you feel.
@hypolite @LogicalDash @haskal
You have much to feel sorry for.
@hypolite @LogicalDash @haskal
Why are you using copy and paste?
@hypolite @LogicalDash @haskal
Avoid projection.
@hypolite @LogicalDash @TruculentSheep guys why are you fighting in my menchies
cut it out tbh. chill okay, ?
Genuinely sorry about that - forgot to remove you from the chat. Consider yourself non implicari.
@haskal you say "sparkling neon scifi" and all I can think of are those sparkling water Bubly/LaCroix drinks lol
@wolfcoder that's actually the idea
it's a play on the champagne copypasta
@haskal Actually, there have always been non-political punks or even nazi-punks, as weird as it sounds.
Fortunately, they've been the minority all along.
@haskal "sparkling neon scifi" is such a good phrase
@haskal In the beginning, the “punk” part was said to be about the writers’ attitude. Didn’t last once the genre got reduced to tropes, though, admittedly.
@haskal
*pops popcorn and waits for ancaps*
@haskal the cishet Gamers are allergic to that though.
