I do not owe kindness to those who oppress others. I will assume good faith and intelligence until proven otherwise.

Kill all Zionists, from the river to the sea. That includes you if you're offended by this.

I love being hated by Hexbear because I know they don't go outside. Being outside their basement is all I need to be safe from them.

    • Gathered all by the same dude
    • Uses his own posts as evidence
    • Considers anarchist instances tankie instances

    So if I gather my own posts as a citation for my own claims that's valid too?

  • As we all know, trolls are anyone who disagree with you, and must be banned from the community.

  • Oh hey you unblocked me, neat. Can't wait until you whine some more and claim the moral high ground.

  • There's a difference between working to not starve or die in the cold, and willingly enlisting to military service.

    I think you could argue it for a mandatory draft, but its not forced upon anyone in the US.

  • You can ignore rhoeri, they're a smug moron.

  • .world goes to .ml to break the rules: "Help help, they're censoring me! I only said that my government was objectively good in the world!"

    .ml goes to .world to break the rules: "You're just steering the pot, shut up loser."

  • "So we took the money and did nothing with it to stop Trump. Another $5 this time will surely let us kick the football, Charlie Brown. Give us your paycheck, so we can stop Trump, unlike the last 8 years!"

  • The ratchet effect. Biden never undid what Trump mainly caused domestically, the tax cuts, the cages, the police militarization, but claimed he was unable to do anything useful, like push for healthcare reform, minimum wage increases, or anything meaningful.

    Next Democrat in office will have ICE detain citizens and claim he can't stop it, because its rude to undo something the last guy did.

  • "The people who voted for me think I'm wrong? Clearly they're the morons! I gotta vote yes on Trump's demands!"

    Might as well swap party affiliation at this point, if they wanna rubber stamp anything Trump wants.

  • It's never a good election cycle for Democrats, so it's never a good time to ever suggest "Please stop voting yes on bills that enable abuse from Republicans."

    It's never a good election cycle for Democrats, so it's never a good time to ever suggest "Please stop using funds that can be used for healthcare and education on keeping kids in cages."

    It's never a good election cycle for Democrats, so it's never a good time to ever suggest "Please stop shipping weapons illegally, it looks really bad if you're trying to go for a second term."

    It's never a good election cycle for Democrats, so it's never a good time to ever suggest "Please arrest Trump, make it so he's punished for once."

    It's never a good election cycle because they want to claim anyone who wants them to win and help the people who vote for them because the other side never will, are useful idiots, Russian bots, Tankies, whatever the corporate owned media told them to attack instead of the rich who fund both parties so "nothing will fundamentally change".

  • Getting downvoted for facts, I wonder why zio.world is mad at you for sharing public info of how this guy defends Israel's genocide. I'm gonna assume you'll be banned soon too, can't have the liberals of flat.world question the media narrative that genocide is good.

  • It's always amazing to see the media of the 80s just shitting on Japan. "Cheap mass market products that never work." "They're going to take all the American jobs."

    In Back to the Future 2, McFly is seen as weak for having a job with a Japanese boss and getting fired for it.

    Cyberpunk has Japanese decorations and cosmetics because it was invented when Japan was the yellow peril.

    At the same time, Japanese-Americans were asking for reparations from the internment camps, charged with the crime of being Japanese and having all their assets sold off without any consent.

    Japan was able to help get a start on the next generation of writers with the mass production of anime into Western audiences. Now if someone doesn't watch anime it's seen as weird.

    Right now China is that "other" nation. I wonder if in 30 more years we'll look back at it and go "What the fuck were we smoking in hating people we never even had contact with? No Chinese person ever deported me. No Chinese person ever called me slurs."

  • At this point I think if anyone loves America they've bought into Republican brainwashing. I don't think I could love this country. Anything good has been stripped away.

    The best parts are the natural wonders and some of my best friends. My friends can come from anywhere and aren't beholden to their birthplace. The wonders are only wonders thanks to conservation, and Republicans want to strip mine Yosemite for oil and coal.

  • If I had money I would move. But if I had money, most of the issues would be solved in the first place.

  • "Clearly it's the phones fault! The phones are to blame, not us voting in fascists and ignoring the incoming climate holocaust!"

  • I'm on the oldest edge of Gen Z, 27 year old here.

    I can maybe handle my parents promising a good life for me before rug pulling that. Well, I can't and that's one of the many reasons why I have mental health issues.

    I don't think they could have predicted 3 economic crashes in my life before I turn the age they conceived me.

    It's just profoundly sad that there are people who were raised for this planet and the planet has changed fundamentally in the last 20 years alone. The technology, the temperature, the expected job market, the ability to own even basic things, the political climate.

    Most people on Lemmy were raised with a bright future that has been dimmed each passing year. The only light we have are those we are close to.

  • White House red phone goes off, "We've been tying to reach you about your nation's extended warranty."

  • Trickle down suffering is a great term for it, I'm going to use that for future use.

  • "Democrats are completely different than Republicans, they want to help people! Anyone saying otherwise supports Trump and is a useful idiot!"

    Adding this to the list of things Democrats and Republicans agree on, in 2025.
