Peak Stupidity bested by superior browser

This was on Instapundit a few days back:


I'd been proud that I've got 149 tabs open in Firefox on an old machine, but it gets bogged down pretty quickly. That may be due to my refusing all updates with extreme prejudice. On Safari on one tablet, I've got 250 tabs open or so, and it's hurting badly.

Peak Stupidity shamefully admits:

PS: Greetings, Achmed!

Not really a correction, just an observation.

Unsurprisingly, I can't find that video, and I'm going to have to stop looking as I have other, more pressing matters to attend to. But I did find this...

Obviously not what I was looking for. I'm just a bit surprised that it hasn't been deleted from youtube.

PS: Yeah, Adam, I was too hasty in assuming MAC address as I got more chances to read/comment when I changed computers. I couldn't mess with the cookies on those ones. I should go on there and correct this, but I'm sure nobody there cares, haha.

Thank you for the correction - that should have been an obvious possibility.

I thought for sure I changed browsers (brands) on one of those computers, BTW, but maybe not.

I remember that video too. Good luck in finding it.

PS: Good morning, y'all,

Achmed, I'm pretty sure it's not a mac address thing, but a browser cookie thing. (https://chroniclesmagazine.org/view/the-hate-that-dare-not-speak-its-name/) With a clean browser you can read and comment. Not sure how many page views one is allowed before the popup arrives, but with a clean browser history, this is (likely) not a concern.

"I donโ€™t think your average Hispanic or ๐๐ฅ๐š๐œ๐ค! working man has anything against us. In fact, deep down inside, many people know, but would or COULD NOT consciously admit, that society would be in bad shape without the White man."

This reminds me of a somewhat "viral" video that was making the rounds some years ago. (Probably 8-10 years ago, but I cannot locate the video now so it's difficult to be sure.)

A ๐๐ฅ๐š๐œ๐ค! teacher axed a group of ๐๐ฅ๐š๐œ๐ค! students what they thought would happen if there were no white people, to which a ๐๐ฅ๐š๐œ๐ค! girl answered something along the lines of "we be fucked".

Point being this ๐๐ฅ๐š๐œ๐ค! girl knew where the funds for her mama's EBT and other forms of welfare came from. I think many ๐๐ฅ๐š๐œ๐ค๐ฌ! know this, but it just fuels their resentment.

Maybe I can find this video.(?) (Seems unlikely. Google probably memoryholed it. Perhaps yandex?)

Anyway... Cheers to another wonderful day! โ˜ฎ๏ธ

PS: "The joke is that the names are directly above certain of the characters. As if tagging the characters to indicate they are those people." OK, I got it now.

"I don't see any Peak Stupidity comment on the Hate Has No Name Sailer entry...Will keep my eye out for Peak Stupidity sightings."

I haven't written anything on unz.com, but I wrote a number of comments - too many, got carried away - under the Chronicles article on that site. However, one must change computers or PAY UP!

PS: I looked at both tweets, Mr. Hail. (I'm not averse to going to the "X" site, but I do hate it when I accidentally get there. For example, some video, instead of playing, opens up a new tab - speaking of tabs - with a tweet with the same video.)

I'm not sure I see either of the 2 black guys as being Steve Sailer in blackface, but I don't have the imagination you have. I wouldn't recognize the other two.

If you do go to Mr. Sailer's article, "The Hate that won't speak its name" (I think), you'll find a number of comments by some guy calling himself Peak Stupidity. Odd ...


(No, not really odd.)

PS

Chronicles Magazine has a kind of "Steve Sailer meme" out:

https://twitter.com/realJeremyCarl/status/1790929133007970607

(For those morally committed to not clicking links or to X.com, a text description: this is the cover of the May 2024 edition of Chronicles Magazine, featuring a lead articles by Steve Sailer, Jeremy Carl, and Paul Gottfried on their theories on what caused the rise of Anti-White Racism.)

A newcomer's interpretation of the cover-image:

https://twitter.com/Hail__To_You/status/1791041078038237289

(Steve Sailer is shown, apparently, in Blackface, and in a suit. This man, labelled "Steve Sailer," is ranting and raving against a White youth tied to a chair. Paul Gottfried is off to one side, his head hurting, but no doubt encouraging Sailer's diatribes against the White captive. Oh, what a tangled web!)

PS: What do we call these awards, Adam, Tabbies?

It must be a thing, Alarmist, probably done by the same people who, cough, cough, have a few piles of paperwork on their desks that make get sorted through but never seem to get smaller. ;-}

PS: Mr. Hail, most of them have news stories or opinions that I had at some point wanted to write about here. I just noticed a few that I already had saved pictures for, maybe a month back. Then, there are quite a few that involve some type of signing up for something, and I wanted to keep the page up for some reason.

Haha, I don't have that particular (or any) Steve Sailer meme, but maybe a handful of funny ones. I would usually save those as .jpg files.

Now, as to why I don't just use "Favorites" or bookmark many of these ... I dunno.

PS

Gee, I thought I was the only one with the bad habit of keeping hundreds of tabs open on my iPad.

PS

Are the open tabs things that you've flagged as "intend to read, when/if get around to it"? As in, would require at least a few minutes each of eyes-on engagement; and not, for example, a single "meme" image of a grinning Steve Sailer slaying villains while atop his lawn-mower on a golf-course.
