I keep seeing this talking point on :reddit-logo: whenever people complain about manchin, sinema or whatever other rotating villain of the week people are mad at. It's supposed to be some sort of "gotcha" or defense for these neolib ghouls...
It's glib, and it flies in the face of their other favorite response "we can walk and chew gum at the same time".
Do they honestly think people dont know republicans exist? Does it really need to be said that republicans are awful? They're not even confusing progressives and leftists for right wingers anymore.
It's just so lame, and I needed to vent about it. I need to quit going to :reddit-logo:
I'm a bit of an accidental Luddite. I use my phone to browse here and occasionally Reddit for news. Other than that, I don't think of myself as extremely online, so a lot of the "culture" eludes me. However, I am waaaay more plugged in than my wife (who works with computers for a living) and she doesn't know stuff like doing (((this))) is a dog whistle for globalism and anti Zionism... for example.
I don't talk about the things like that with her because at the end of the day, it's not worth knowing.
It's hard to break the habit of assuming everyone on the internet is representing themselves genuinely, even if they are saying super misguided things.
((())) isn't globalism and anti zionism
It's a online whistle to show that you think the Jews control everything and probably have Nazi like belifs
See? Too hard to keep up with all this shit.
