When tankies will learn that pointing out that liberals don't learn that pointing out fascist hypocrisy isn't doing anything to stop fascism ins't doing anything to stop liberalism?
When will the fediverse learn that pointing out that tankies pointing out that liberals don't learn that pointing out fascist hypocrisy isn't doing anything to stop fascism isn't doing anything to stop liberalism isn't doing anything to stop tankieism?
I don't even know what the question is anymore so I'm just going to say no
Me either but I'll say yes
I need one of those aliens from Rick and Morty with pointy nipples tearing their shirt off to do mortal battle with a flat nippled alien as an emoji now.
when will anybody learn something something barrel of a gun
Uhhh that sounds like 1984 authoritarianism to me. Don't you know that political violence is always bad? Anyway, here's why our mass slaughter of Palestinians is actually a nuanced and complicated subject.
Why do they call it oven when you of in the cold food of out hot eat the food?
We're all liberals here, friend!
Still ridin' with Biden!
When will people learn that you can't convince people of anything and we're all fucked?
if libs had politics that were based in reality then they wouldn't be libs
Right. The rich ones would just be conservatives, and everyone else would be socialists/communists/anarchists.
It's a party that exists to occupy the absence of anything meaningful. There are reasons why that is the case (red scare, anyone), but that is all they are.
liberals have no interest in stopping fascism, they care about stopping the left
Fascists love their own hypocrisy. It's a way to flex their muscle. They are part of the in-group for whom the law protects but does not bind. Hypocrisy allows them to show rules are for other people. Words only have definitions when they come out the mouths of the out-group.
Liberals cling to their decorum and procedures because of some moral superiority. As if the fascists are just misguided simpletons who can be changed by showing them how to behave properly. The liberal thinks the fascist will grow a conscience once the fascist kills enough people.
exactly. that’s the thing thats so maddening about libs. they point this shit out like these people arent just fucking flexing on us all doing this shit. they’re pulling a “why are you hitting yourself” on us all and libs think going “look he’s saying im hitting myself when he’s the one hitting me” is somehow exposing the fascist, and its just like yeah no shit.
Seemingly never. I remember after several years of watching Jon Stewart do his shtick long ago, getting frustrated even as a viewer that he and his writers were putting so much effort into simply mocking republicans to literally no discernible effect. It made me realize what a flimsy weapon sarcasm is, on a political scale.
It's actually the opposite of a weapon. It is false catharsis. Liberals watch shows like John Oliver's and feel like they've resolved a problem when all they've really done is make themselves feel righteous.
i think mike from PA said it best: liberals are basically hall monitors running to tattle on the class clown... as if the class clown will actually show up for detention.
Smugness is the last refuge of the incompetent
ceo @ my company pointed out today that Trump is following the playbook of Hitler step by step... and if only the Democrats would stand up and say something about it we could stop it...
smh
they will not. it allows them to feel as though they aren't entirely complicit in the centuries-long sequence of events which led to this exact conclusion. this is the basis of almost everything that liberals say and do.
Liberals are a stage of fascists
Never. Those who realize the types of actions needed will go down a path that removes their liberalism.
it actively encourages the fascists. the entire ideology of fascism is ultimately a perverse power fantasy. pointing out that they are hypocrites feeds into that. yes, they know it and you can't stop them. no matter how contradictory or pointless their actions are you are unable to do anything about it. tell them about it again, lib. they are getting off on it.
Liberals are just refined fascists, they hate the aesthetic of fascism that republicans conduct themselves by and that is what truly pisses them off (i.e. orange man loud and bad/stupid).
I saw a tweet saying something along the lines of why can't we admit what we're seeing now is the same as Nazi Germany. And it pissed me off so much, because what difference would it make if it's admitted or not ? It's still a genocide being cosigner by both parties. We don't have to wait for them to tell us that
