ahahahahahaaha she's into it clown-to-clown-communication clown-to-clown-conversation

Crazy accurate, especially with the “Cimmerian vibes.” I’ve done my DNA testing. I lack, though, any explicit ties to the African or Sephardic/Romani side. You are correct, on paper—very much so half Dalmatian & half Slovene, but you left out the German ties on my Slovene side.

omg you totally read me except the 3/4 of it that was completely wrong. and the part about having a growth disorder because you can't grasp that selfies make people's facial features look disproportionately large

this is just horoscopes for racist losers lmao

Her bio is just:

Philosopher.

[-] Parsani@hexbear.net 35 points 1 month ago

She's a right Hegelian egirl who tails the weird patsocs

[-] anarchoilluminati@hexbear.net 20 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

I'll admit, I was crushing on her pretty hard after this post so I looked her up.

According to this, she's connected to the ACP. So, basically, a fed.

I bet it's just for show and she doesn't even read philosophy. sicko-wistful

[-] Parsani@hexbear.net 14 points 1 month ago

She posted a photo of her holding the phenomenology of spirit and the spine wasn't cracked lol

[-] anarchoilluminati@hexbear.net 5 points 1 month ago

I believe in nothing anymore. sicko-wistful

Self-described philosophers are usually sus to me. sus-soviet

That goes double if they're French. libertarian-alert

[-] CloutAtlas@hexbear.net 8 points 1 month ago

Oh? Your a philosopher? Then turn this lead into gold. You can't? Then I guess you don't have the stones to be a philosopher.

legible magyar admixture

❌ (googled and that's hungarian)

sephardic or romani

❌

slightly acromegalic

this is literally just a fucking insult, he's saying she has a growth disorder and she takes kindly to it?

African genetics

❌ (love how he's memorized a gajillion european ethnicities and doesn't know a single african one)

Cimmerian

❓she claims it's accurate but only says she's half Dalmatian and half Slovene. maybe 23andme told she was 0.8% iranic?

Haplogroup I-M438

➖ googled and this is literally just a group of meaningless genes most common to be people in the balkans, but very common throughout all of eastern europe (probably why she acted like he got slovene when he didn't) and not uncommon in western europe and the middle east

Dalmatian (Croatian)

✅ wow a single one!

not like ethnic DNA tests aren't pseudoscience that look for meaningless mutations (genetic noise that doesn't mark anything nor manifest in any way) likely most common to a politically defined historic region yet never remotely matching it, often extending deep into neighboring areas and further. crazy how random genes don't confine themselves to manmade culture zones 🤷‍♂️

not like ethnicities aren't constantly shifting, vaguely defined, socio-cultural lumping of clines together in one of the most genetically similar species to exist (that just happens to have a diverse spectrum of phenotypes)

[-] Dolores@hexbear.net 9 points 1 month ago

googled and that's hungarian

that's a fun one because when they say that they don't mean hungarian (unambiguously white) they're specifically talking about the medieval magyars who were imagined as an 'other', non-white invading barbarian group. he's saying she looks like she has turkic/mongolic unspecified asian ancestry. irl as a steppe confederation they were not a unified ethnolinguistic group of course but the ruling class called magyars whose language became hungarian were related to finns i.e. probably considered white by people without phds in racism.

so it's actually wrong in two ways centrist

Girl: [is beautiful]

Incel: I see haplogroup 14b genes in your face indicating your ancestors moved from the horn of africa in 1320, literally unfuckable. smuglord

[-] EmoThugInMyPhase@hexbear.net 54 points 1 month ago

Thank you for describing the photo

[-] SorosFootSoldier@hexbear.net 49 points 1 month ago

youre-welcome

[-] Seasonal_Peace@hexbear.net 53 points 1 month ago

legible cum admixture on his T-shirt, some sweat or urine features on his pants, slightly stupid, somewhat/possible Western brainworms (north not south), inexplicable loser vibes---I'd say pathetic incel. Largely but not fully Germanic, Angloid to be specific.

[-] propter_hog@hexbear.net 31 points 1 month ago

Spot on

[-] peeonyou@hexbear.net 7 points 1 month ago

fuckin nailed it! except the slightly stupid brainworms -- they're full on grade-a stupid pushing the boundaries of what stupid can mean

[-] anarchoilluminati@hexbear.net 50 points 1 month ago

If he wanted to dehumanize her, he could have just called her a Hegelian idealist and been done with it.

Just want a guy to tell me my haplogroup panting

hi :)

Inexplicable Cimmerian vibes are when you run around dressed in a fur loincloth and slaughter giant snakes and spiders with huge sword.

[-] context@hexbear.net 17 points 1 month ago

i feel like those vibes would be quite explicably cimmerian

[-] kristina@hexbear.net 32 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

needs cw/nsfw for racism

[-] huf@hexbear.net 31 points 1 month ago

dude just named an area like 2000km across + horn of africa. wow isnt race science amazing!

Cimmerian vibes

CONAN WAS FICTION YOU IGNORANT FASCIST TREAT HOG guts-rage

EDIT: I can't help but wonder if the same ignorant fascist treat hog also believes that Romani can shrink people and have medically useful tears to extract. galaxy-brain

[-] context@hexbear.net 25 points 1 month ago

presumably these cimmerians, but obviously it's still a bunch of racist nonsense

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cimmerians

[-] UlyssesT@hexbear.net 16 points 1 month ago

I highly doubt that the treat hog knew anything about that outside of Conan, unless he oinked at Conan and looked it up way after the fact and still missed anything of actual academic value.

[-] Dolores@hexbear.net 22 points 1 month ago

the usage of terminology that was used in Conan, hyperborea as well, is not from Conan the barbarian, Robert Howard crimped them from popular racialized archaeology in the 30s and racist neonazis/phrenologists are still just using early 20th century racial theories. Conan has very much superseded the bunk racism in the popular culture so most normal people think they're talking about Conan mythos which is funny

[-] UlyssesT@hexbear.net 12 points 1 month ago

I do know that now, even if admittedly years ago when I saw the movie, I sure didn't.

What I was getting at was I think the aforementioned measurehead on Twitter was probably the same way and I had my doubts he dug much further than that, except long after the fact if that and probably didn't derive any lasting additional understanding from it.

[-] Dolores@hexbear.net 10 points 1 month ago

i mean racial psuedoscience is pretty easy & simple to get into, because it has nothing to do with reality.

trying to figure out what historical 'Cimmerians' spoke, where they lived---dozens of books, reading asssyrian records, archaeology linguistics---years of work.

finding out how 'Cimmerians' were a kind of magic white people in the Hitlerian cosmology---idk that probably takes an afternoon with a weird paperback that got republished by american nazi party in the 90s

It doesn't help that as far as I know the Cimmerians didn't leave written accounts about themselves. I think I read that even the name is derived from what others called them.

In case it seemed like otherwise, I actually enjoyed the Conan movies for what they were (Conan the Destroyer was like the earliest example I can think of a D&D tabletop group chemistry in movie form).
