If they would stop inventing words and learn to validly express what's going on, the educated wouldn't just instantly dismiss them. Such as is the case when you run into people who invent words and change their meaning. Both sides or whatever that is, this applies too, I just assume they are intellectually undeveloped/stunted people and a chatbot arguing in a circle in reality

    Valid point, but please refrain from ableist slurs though. Like unwise/unintelligent is acceptable here, but not the r-word or similar (also please dont weaponize "autistic" as a slur if it ever comes to mind [goes for everyone here]).

    It's been a long time since I've seen anyone speak well of Israel on the feddiverse in general. I don't get why they think there's a sizable portion of Zionists here. People are generally from Abdul El-Sayed on left.

    Like a year or two ago, I said some mildly zionist stuff and kind of baited the dbzer0 folks so I can block the most toxic debaters on the topic. But my views have changed towards somewhat antizionist. My view that there are toxic debaters hasn't changed. There are plenty of bad actors from both sides of the debate on the topic such as Samskara (who luckily got banned) on the Zionist side and on the other side you got the tankie triad saying shit like "there are no civilians in Israel" or condoning Hamas or the PLFP.

    And while there are still Zionist users on Lemmy, they are far and between. On feddit.org for example, I can count the clearly Zionist users this year on one hand.

    Social democrats and democratic socialists aren't the same though. But yeah, they hate social democrats a lot too even though they are far better than what the US has now. Though in Europe social democrats are often social in name only.

    Same shit different flavor. Exclusionaries exclude.

    A fediverse tankie is a Facebook boomer. Scared and screeching and far too into their feed.

    Unruffled is basically a tankie outlet on db0 (the instance). Unfortunately, db0 themselves (the person) doesn't do anything about them.

    Anarchist and leftist only when you kiss the ring, apparently.
