What the fuck is wrong with these people?

[-] [email protected] 80 points 2 years ago

Reddit has completely broken their brains.

[-] [email protected] 86 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Seriously, the OP over there is genuinely deranged.

Like what the fuck is even going on here:

I hesitate to call them tankies because they don’t follow the same ideals. These people deride ‘the libs’ but engage in liberalism, calling themselves lgbtq friendly, then they call themselves communist but engage in materialism, they call themselves socialist but agree with authoritarianism.

I don’t know what to call them besides fascist, but fascist is so non-specific when dealing with these groups that it doesn’t help for identification. We actually need a new name for this group of fascists.

It's gotta be a bit right

"Materialism is when you desire material wealth and possessions, my source is the song Material Girl" maybe-later-honey

"Materialism is when you desire material wealth and possessions, my source is the song Material Girl"

When I criticize a treat (or how it's made or who is exploited when it's made) and someone says that criticizing that treat is "against materialism" that's roughly the same take. yea

fascinating, linguists and philosophers would have a field day studying this person.

I didn't think it was possible to lose a language-game but this person has achieved it.

[-] [email protected] 42 points 2 years ago

linguists [...] would have a field day

Fun fact: it's called a "field day" because that's where I'll be buried after I die of cringe and frothing rage at the political illiteracy of the average American

zero-sum language game kelly

Liberals are famously LGBTQ friendly, and not the types of absolute clowns who make me want to yell "God, can you people please just stop circumlocuting and just call me a slur already? You're clearly about to have an aneurysm from not being permitted to call me [redacted] over my preferred pronouns."

And materialism famously has no place in communism, which is why Marx described dialectical vibesism in such depth in his magnum opus, Das Lemmypost; and socialism is fundamentally opposed to any and all authoritarian measures, because the ruling class famously just gives up its power when it's asked very very nicely.

Liberals are famously LGBTQ friendly

That's why Disney is celebrating its 25th time ever LGBTQIA+ character that can be plausibly-deniably dialed back in interpretation and/or outright edited out of the feature entirely. capitalist-woke

[-] [email protected] 18 points 2 years ago

Of course if you bring this up to a liberal they'll insist it only happens because of the evil dastardly CCP who hate gays too much for Disney to do more, but also Disney is thoroughly owned by the CCP because they want money

Or something

Jesus these people get off on being smugly confident about not knowing things.

[-] [email protected] 26 points 2 years ago

Just absolute word salad

This is pure and inane projection coming from a .world user.

I'm kind of impressed by how they managed to construct whatever the hell that even is

[-] [email protected] 10 points 2 years ago

I thought the whole point of the tankie pejorative in the past few years was to call actual communists muh redfash.

[-] [email protected] 10 points 2 years ago

The great thing about the word "tankie" is that it can mean anything you want.

Your neighbour who mowes their lawn at seven every sunday morning? Tankie.

That squirrel that keeps raiding your birdfeeder? Tankie.

Your wife wants a divorce? She's literally Stalin.

54% of American adults read below a 6th grade level. The literacy statistics for redditors are sadly even more grim.

[-] [email protected] 42 points 2 years ago

Hey, don't be ableist! I myself read below a 6th grade level!

...In my fourth language!

[-] [email protected] 31 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Ha, my fourth language is English

Edit: (but I'm barely literate in my second language, Mandarin)

[-] [email protected] 10 points 2 years ago

it's fine, I'm literally illiterate in my first language.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

May I ask what your first language is?

[-] [email protected] 7 points 2 years ago

not sure it's a great idea to share here, sorry

[-] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago

I understand, that's completely reasonable <3

Never believe that anti-Semites are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies.

They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The anti-Semites have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past. sartre-pipe

I can't believe Lemmygrad is so weird, who answers their door while holding a book? Like, just put it down somewhere. I guess it's a solid excuse to tell the .world Nazi to get off your porch.

[-] [email protected] 28 points 2 years ago

We were in the middle of a group reading for State & Revolution. We thought we'd invite the stranger at our door to come and join, but it seems we were better off without them.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

I think the image is meant to be from the perspective of inside the house as someone answers the door to a missionary

[-] [email protected] 10 points 2 years ago

Clearly lemmygrad is inside, because .world has the nazis.

[-] [email protected] 45 points 2 years ago

I like the people that do the national socialism thing, it's great when peoplr explicitly tell you they're too dumb to be taken seriously.

WORDS SHOULD MEAN THINGS

[-] [email protected] 31 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

o7 to the .ee poster (maybe not, now that I look closer their username is a bit sus). If grad was really calling for "race-based nuclear holocaust", shouldn't they be able to present evidence? That whole thread is filled with some absolutely wild takes.

[-] [email protected] 26 points 2 years ago

Imagine being so belligerent and delusional you make an .ee poster look like the rational one.

[-] [email protected] 21 points 2 years ago

They're sticking so hard to the "just ask the libs for a single shred of evidence" tactic that I'm wondering if it's one of us.

[-] [email protected] 12 points 2 years ago

I think I remember that @ - they had an account here at one point cause I did a doubletake when I saw their username.

[-] [email protected] 14 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)
[-] [email protected] 20 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

You wish, but no. I'm referring to [email protected], who was attempting to get the libs to provide evidence.

[-] [email protected] 15 points 2 years ago

Of couse you are. Clearly I am not awake yet

[-] [email protected] 13 points 2 years ago

That username sounds like a cumtown bit

[-] [email protected] 12 points 2 years ago

Rips to that guy. Banned from .world for… username!

[-] [email protected] 26 points 2 years ago

Zero chance this is a genuine mistake, it's just too much of an awkward "this situation does not happen" situation

[-] [email protected] 26 points 2 years ago

It's the traditional last defence of scratched liberal who just realized he fucked up and everyone see that he's a nazi:

"No u"

[-] [email protected] 24 points 2 years ago

It is telling that they can't even point to the meme posadism and xi-plz stuff facetiously. It isn't even that hard to cherry pick stuff from here or Lemmygrad and bring it completely out of context to 'prove their point'.

[-] [email protected] 8 points 2 years ago

They have to lie about their us because they know they're wrong

It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
