Thinking that some of these are rightist opinions betrays that these people are liberals

The person who made the question probably also believes liberalism is a left wing philosophy.

What’s the phrase for positing a question wherein you do not understand the answers you should be receiving, and the people giving you answers largely do not either?

Being a Hilldawg-hating lib means they’d fit right in on this site, though.

Maybe these people are fledgling leftists who think they’re libs because they think that libs are leftists. Fuck, my brain hurts.

That to me always translates to “I am intellectually lazy, do not rely on me as I am unreliable.”

I will always get a chuckle at myself for ever calling myself that. I was under some weird impression that the right just HAD to be correct about something, opinions are equal, right?

Thank fuck I learned that equality of opinion is bullshit, and even if it is, CHUDs would never respect mine so why do I owe CHUDs respect of their opinions?

Create post

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 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

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
