Sometimes I like to cruise the politics sub so I can drive by downvote libs and report them for breaking their precious civility rule, and honestly, I’ve gotten a decent amount of them banned for it, which is hilarious.
That is all
I wish libs would stop pretending they support free speech
Nobody really supports free speech for their political enemies, but libs are the only ones sanctimonious to pretend they do
I saw one the other day talking about how the Nazis that recently rallied should be allowed to because the poster “fought and bled for this country so they could”. Motherfucker, were you in WWII? No? Huh.
Everyone loves to pretend they’re open to debate. Nobody wants to admit to being closed minded. You need to be receptive with a well-rehersed rebuttal.
But this invites sea lioning, which everyone agrees is obnoxious. So the argument eventually becomes “I’m up for informed debate, but you’re not engaging seriously.”
That’s where all this stuff ends, and it illustrates the limits of any discourse.
Do they pretend to support free speech for their enemies? Or do they pretend that the people they support free speech for are their enemies?
Whataboutism? What about deez nuts?
Things I’m gonna have to start stealing
Getting libs banned? I think it’s hilarious
Also, I love the idea of them being forsaken by their echo chamber and I love when their precious rules can be used to bite them in the ass. Yes, it’s petty, but I don’t care. I’m usually just standing in line somewhere or on break at work when I’m doing it
What is TDS?
Isn’t that a Trump meme or what?
I’ve kinda gone back and forth on whether or not it’s a useful term.
Chuds do use it. But it’s a valid observation, libs tunnel vision on Trump to a huge degree. On the other hand, chuds usually suffer Trans Derangement Syndrome where they’re so tunnel visioned on their transphobia they’d vote for politicians who hate them (see: Catholic Latines voting for republicans).
I can see where you’re coming from. I probably wouldn’t say it outside of hexbear. The explanation of how I’m not a right wing nutjob would eclipse the usefulness of the word. And really, it’s probably not worth engaging with people that “have TDS” because you will go nowhere. They have every thought terminating cliche you can think of at the ready.
They invented it but what else do you call it when the front page of r/politics has been half a dozen articles about how Trump is 48 hours away from a jail cell for 6 years.
Blue MAGA is absolutely a thing.
I got banned for saying billionaires shouldn’t exist. I didn’t even state execution, just that they shouldn’t exist and that using force is a legit approach. Never bothered to make another account because the karma shit is so tedious lol, I’m happy that site is tanking ngl
Once in a while I make an account to follow some niche subs or to find mycology information. It always makes me wander back into /r/politics so I can make some libs heads explode though…eventually I get banned. The weird part is, I never call names, I never swear, I only make comments to counter stupid lib shit, and I get got every time.
