I had to block [Hexbear]. I am very sympathetic and generally agreeable to many communist ideals but their brigading and style of that community is annoying.

That was actually the person who got reported on my blahaj comm so I was vibechecking them and that's how I found this thread (I also found transphobia in their comment history while doing it so they got hit with the
)but their brigading and style of that community is annoying.
Scratch a white moderate
This is literally the "I left the left because they were mean to me on the Internet" line grifters on the Internet say
"There's a sucker born every minute"
From education to business, lying and scamming is seen as fair play by a huge majority of American people. And things like their credit score system don't help things, when getting ahead can literally be the difference between life and death.
It's not white collar crime unless it comes from the tech ceo region of financial crime otherwise it's sparkling scamming.
i've seen this tactic before... "no im not racist, it's the culture of that entire race* that im against"
*not that race has any scientific basis and is a social construct...
Someone on here said a few days ago that "They have a bad culture" remains one of the last acceptable avenues of racism in polite society, and I've been thinking about that a lot.
You claim that China isn't full of cheaters, and yet look at this permutation of Chinese characters, you fucking idiot.
To the western brainpan Chinese characters are actually magical, everything written in them becomes imbued with totemic truth power. This explains the tattoos.
Getting "Juan Gweilo" tattooed on my bicep in Chinese as part of my bid for interim president.
There's an English phrase, "All is fair in love and war" which means SA, torture, looting, executing non combatants are encouraged by westerners so long as you're technically at war.
Ever since I started working in social work, I've completely stopped giving a shit about cheating. A good amount of the time I'm helping people cheat various systems to get what they need cause social assistance is so fucked they have to cheat it.
Exactly, if the system didn't suck then cheating wouldn't be necessary
Is it racist to say things that are fucking true?
Ah yes, the justification given by every racist since the dawn of time
It has to do with their culture. Chinese culture is very cutthroat and survival of the fittest. It makes people have the mindset of doing anything they can to win or be successful, even if it means cheating. It’s not just video games. They have a huge problem with it in their education system, as well.
Love it when they try to criticize communism and end up just describing capitalism.
if you ask a capitalist and a communist to criticize each other they'll both criticize capitalism
They're actually doing the west taiwan bit? I thought that was just something people here said as a parody
Everything we make fun of either exists or comes into being because of our connection to the Lathe of Heaven
Love how fucking powerless that "dunk" is, since Taiwan don't and never will have the power to claim the mainland no matter what the US has to say about is. "They think that by changing the name of a thing, they are changing the thing itself" as the quote goes.
Taiwan don't and never will have the power to claim the mainland no matter what the US has to say about is.
The US doesn't say anything about it, they say the opposite if anything. Even they're not the stupid.
They also don’t want to. Taking over the mainland is usually associated with the KMT which is ironically the PRC’s preferred party in power because they both want one china. What that looks like is TBD. But the libs in charge usually want Taiwan to be independent, consider it independent, or want to stay in this limbo for whatever reason
I used to see it all the time on leddit before I migrated to lemmygrad after the genzedong quarantine.
literally only exists because some Chinese guy invented the plow 1500 years ago (while brits were living in actual shitholes)
lol
(btw I mean actual in-the-groud holes full of shit, the Romans even documented it)
Romans documented some eastern Anglo tribes chilling in bogs on hot days. Literally wallowing in peat, dead plant matter and mud. It's why they built so many bathhouses.
That's hilarious.
I've seen the wojack comics of it but never knew there was truth to it.
They either accidentally die in said bogs or also use said bogs for burials, the amount of preserved bodies that show up
Said bogs are filled with corpses. Even today, every now and then a perfectly preserved corpse floats up to the top
But the Romans are not know to be particularly truthful in their reporting either. They were pretty racist. But it's racism against Anglos so it should be ok I think.
If it was just one guy who thought "fuck it, it's hot, I don't have anything to do, I'm going for a dip in the bog" and as he got comfortable, some Roman legionaries walked past, looked at him, went back to camp and noted "The native barbarians bathe in swamps", it would be a good bit
But the bogs aren't necessarily bad places to bathe, all things considered. They're acidic enough to prevent decomposition of corpses, so they're probably more sterile than still water.
Donald Trump literally said he cheats on his taxes on live TV and everyone in America shrugged their soldiers and went "Same"
He did say slightly more than that. He said that if Hillary wanted him to pay taxes, she should change the tax-code, but that she wouldn't because her donors and friends and party-members all enjoyed the same tax breaks and loopholes that he did.
Was doing moderation stuff for the blahaj zone comm I mod and checking through someone's comment history for a vibecheck because they'd had one of their comments reported but it was unclear whether they were just being a dick or should actually be banned and then I found this lol
Literally every university student from the US and Europe was cheating online exams during COVID lockdows ...
The Fascist instance we defederated from for being fascist is being fascist, who would've guessed
