AGORA ROAD ICEBERG THREAD

Deleted member 4436

So far we've got 60 entry titles. I think I'm going to make an abridged iceberg for the video aside from the full one, so keep posting as many as you want.
Once we get to 100 or so though, I think I'm going to make a poll where everyone can vote on what they think are the best/funniest and cut it down to 50 entries (because I don't want to record 3 hours of voicelines).

We all shitpost that the road's members are either glowies or AIs, but what if some are the spirits of the dead? :monkaW:

Maybe manpaint leaving the internet means he finally moved on to the afterlife.

Alright friends, it's time for a community project, since we have a lot of talent here and haven't done one of these in a while (or maybe ever). Continuing on from the "Current thing meme analysis thread", I've decided that we should make a parody of those "iceberg explained" videos for Agora Road.

I've done something like this once in this past on my own, but it wasn't very good and I've since unlisted it.

We can make it good this time though! I'm taking suggestions for entries and images. I'll probably end up making the iceberg image myself.
I'm not sure how to split up the workload for the video though. I could write the script, though I think it would be better if we got to work on that together as a community. It will probably be narrating in either my voice or with a TTS, though I don't know who will do the editing, since I'm not good at that, or whose channel it will be posted to. We could maybe upload it to the official Agora Youtube, if the admin is okay with that.


Anyways. Post entry titles, explanations, sidebar images, and joke ideas. Alternatively, are there maybe some that should be cut? What order should the entries be in?

This is what we have so far, though entry explanations are still wanted:

The longest thread on Agora (publicly) is the Anarchy thread. However, the real longest thread is actually my DM conversation with Summer, unless two people want to come out and challenge us by claiming they actually have a DM conversation with 70 or more pages of messages minimum

    Well, if you do, take some reading material with you, at least. I know it's a little long at 17,000 words, but I think it'll be worth an hour of your time and might stimulate your imagination. There's some original thought and analysis in it, as well some surveys from Huxley, Popper, de Tocqueville, and Kaczynski.

    An extremely astute and appreciated recommendation. Indeed, I've been meaning to delve into that for a while. I think it would speak a lot on the issue of closed societies that are nonetheless very abstract (in the Popperian sense of the term, meaning those societies where freedom of thought and discourse are not allowed, and where the laws are against the principles that allow men and woman to live as they please, with only civic or economic engagement with the rest of their peers). Within this category I would include the 20th century authoritarian states of the fascists and communists, as well as maybe some 19th century European polities.

    I deliberately avoided speaking on these cases in the DM's I sent the both of you. For one thing, it's long enough as-is and a full discussion of the problem would quite literally be novel-length. For another, I believe that the horror and objective inhumanity of modern rational societies where not even the pretext of liberty or open thought is given its due -- such as the totalitarian societies of North Korea, Turkmenistan, the PRC, and increasingly even places like the Russian Federation -- is plain and obvious for all us Westerners and children of the internet to perceive and thus should not merit much immediate discussion.
