Unfortunately, you gotta deal with a lot of that when trying to spread the cause of socialism. At a certain point, ignorance is deliberate, which changes how we have to think about pedagogy.

Genuinely one of the most infuriating libs I think I've seen in a while. Just showing time and time again they have no idea what they're talking about and declaring everyone else to be dumb idiots for not immediately agreeing with them that Fascist(D) is the only option and we cannot allow Fascist(R) into office or else it'll be the end of everything, but like, the only thing that we could ever do about it is vote, no actual organised resistance, because that would be "letting the Fascists win."

It was honestly like a greatest hits of blind arrogance, claiming they are the biggest and best ally of a group they're seconds away from agreeing with the Republicans on sending to the camps, even claiming they have a sister who is trans, which I personally doubt, the "I have a trans sister and she says that trans women shouldn't be allow in sports/bathrooms/society/outside the camps" is the new "I have a black friend" for these fuckers.

Only thing they said I actually believe is when they said they have an economics degree, this is exactly the sort of smug blind arrogance they teach in economics course, or so I assume, since every person I've met with an economics degree has been one of the most smug and proudly ignorant mother fuckers I've ever talked to.

The modlog? How can it be so long? They used to ban people on their for swear words like 'gosh'?

complete troll

how would it know? yet another rightoid using that telling name convention with added condescending sadism this time

This one lib made me so angry that I actually starting hitting things from how infuriated I was at their attitude.

NGL, I was kind of fantasizing that I'd click the link and find I was getting recognition for quality shitposting.

lol I knew who it was before clicking the link

The slop troth was overflowing that day...

Same, like arrogance in general is just so rage-inducing. Even confidence is annoying.

Yeah, same it's why I especially can't stand being around conservatives.

"You say there's GLOBAL WARMING but it's been really cold this winter!"
"Mud pies disprove the labor theory of value."
"Every human society throughout history always agreed there were two genders until Tumblr snowflakes came along."
"Communism kills 100 trilling people in gulags every time it's tried"

Good lord what is happening in there?!

It's tough, I left reddit due to its own issues, but lemmy is full of super far lefts that have no idea how the world actually works and what is needed including the time it takes for change.

Lol, it's okay to say you just have no logical argument for your actions but are acting on emotions.

"It soooo rational and realistic to follow the rules set by our oppressors even if when they make our lives shit guys, I'm sooooo smart and pragmatic. No one has ever used their strong emotions to fuel people towards positive change guuuuuys! Just keep waiting even though things are getting progressively worse under either major party. Did I mention how smart I am? "

Fortunately, recent history has shown that liberalism is fucked and the people still defending it will spend the rest of either their lives or their time as liberals being pushed into publicly defending more and more absurd, evil and ineffectual positions. Their arrogance will never let them back off of the Victorian finger wagging and demands of obedience that make everyone hate them. We, by circumstance, association, humility and the difficult internal work of deprogramming, are mentally free to embrace and co-author the future. They, by circumstance, association, smug self-satisfaction and the naive incuriosity fostered by lifelong obedience, are doomed to transform into a corncob over and over and over again.

I realized this over four years arguing about Ukraine. Marxist-biased reality will smack these people down harder than you or I ever could, and internalizing that has granted me a great deal of calm in talking to them.

Far lefts [have] no idea how the world actually works and what is needed including the time it takes for change.

Among other things r/politics redditors said stuff like that to me in 2021-22 when I kept trying to get them to see the supreme court had to be packed. I don't know why I kept talking to them post after post. I could have simply and literally banged my head into a wall every single time I had an urge to write something.

There are times when kys is appropriate

We have got to start hitting people with rocks

Big ones
