Anime avatars are often a coin toss between (potential) comrade and chud, so it may be fun and maybe helpful to think about and share those in the place of that old hentai-free bellwether for chuddery.

Mine is anyone with ".eth" as a suffix in their online name. I have yet to see a single person that does that that isn't a chud. cryptocurrency

It may even be cheating, but seeing an actual cryptofascist cartoon "original NFT do not steal" is a pretty reliable red flag too. monke-beepboop

Hey now, the Art of War is great and everyone should read it. Most people have never really sat down and thunk about the whens whys and hows of getting 50,000 of your buddies together to slaughter those shitass wankers in Wu and it shows.

It's still sus as some deliberate "look at me look at me" bookshelf display. It's up there with Infinite Jest when it comes to douche mating signals.

The thing about "Art of War" is that it is incredibly short and can be read from cover to cover in a half hour. It is an interesting read, but when somebody is trying to position themselves as an intellectual and they name drop Sun Tsu, you can tell they aren't very much of a reader.
