Got off reddit today, the straw that broke the camel's back for me is true anon's bullshit about being "normal" and shitting on leftists that aren't. (hexbear.net)

And I use "normal" in scare quotes, because, according to whom, exactly, capitalism? Society? Yourself? Some of the "weirdest" people I've met in my life where also some of the nicest and actually helped me out. People you'd peg as "normal"? Well I've had my fair share of shit with them. I'm not about to put up with some reddit lord trying to score points with cool kid podcasters by throwing people who feed the homeless under the bus, fuck you very much.

oh hey look a person saying something flippantly shitty also has a username which is a horrible, flippant reference to a great tragedy where literally hundreds of people were murdered painfully, including many, many children who had no opportunity to know anything but the deeply abusive world they were forced into and then killed before they could even imagine a way to escape

how surprising

this is literally what they're talking about though. "Being normal" is just being friendly. You don't need to immediately attack people because you somehow perceive yourself as under attack.

He got baited, but acting like it's not an awful, sneering comment that he's responding to is ridiculous. Are you that easy to manipulate with dogwater rhetorical tricks?
