On a different Lemmy account I forgot to switch to local and was subjected to the cesspool of Lemmy World. There I encountered libs being seriously condescending toward Muslims in America for boycotting Genocide Joe. Shit like "don't they realize Trump will be worse for minorities" and "that's shortsighted and a failure of Muslim leadership" and even the incomprehensible "hate is a bad long term strategy" (this just in folks, opposing genocide is Hate, supporting genocide is Love! But Liberals aren't fascists! /s)

Fuck Liberals. I almost respect Conservative racists more because they're open about being evil scum, whereas the libs are too deluded to even admit to themselves that they're racist.

    It's honestly hilarious to me at this point the way Democrats have voting and campaigning completely backwards. They really do believe it's a question of personal responsibility and civic participation that you should go vote for a Democrat, and if the Democrats lose they're completely blameless because the voters failed in their duties and should now be derided and condescended to.

      To quote Citations Needed, Dems cannot fail, they can only be failed.

      Also after the last 4 years, I'm feeling much more comfortable telling scolding liberals that voting is quite literally worthless when you can't even directly vote for president here. And that neither party represents anything beneficial to most of society.

        My favorite has been quoting the line back to them about "vote for who you want in the primary and then vote for the democratic candidate in the general"

        I'm from New York, you canceled the last two primaries. Seems like you're not even holding up your end of that deal so no I'm not voting for an enthusiastic war criminal.

          As far as I'm concerned, Biden gave us irrefutable proof that there is no 'lesser evil'. Not that there has been in a long time, but still.

            Libs : "Bide[t]n is the lesser evil"

            Normal people: that only feels true if you're a white supremacist who fundamentally views the lives of bipoc as less valuable than white lives.

    I'm honestly expecting the attacks to get worse. "You Ain't Black" part two, and Genocide Joe won't even have to say it himself this time

      Yea liberals can usually only contain their open disdain for minorities for so long when they start asking why they should support liberals.

      For some reason "because the other side is worse you uneducated simpletons" doesn't really work

    BLM Protests happened under Trump, where are the protests under Brandon? Liberals are complacent.

    If Trump does something evil, say support genocide in Palestine, there would be widespread condemnation from liberals.

    If Brandon does something evil, liberals tell you to vote for the evil doer.

      If Trump was president every single liberal would have the palestinian flag in their profile.

      The only difference between a republican and a democratic president is when it's a dem president liberals tell minorities to stop complaining because it makes them look bad, even though they were protesting the same issue when a republican was president.

      How's dejoy doing as head of the usps

      How're the camps going on the southern border

      How much oil are we currently drilling

      Those were all pretty serious issues when a republican was president

    I can at least freely shit on conservative racists, but it's hard to do that for libs who genuinely can't even realize how fucking racist they are.

    When asked if there would be any conditions on funding for Isreal Biden said

    "we’re not going to do a damn thing other than protect Israel in the process. Not a single thing."

    Until a lib can explain to me what Trump would do that would be way worse than literal unconditional support for all of their actions they can shut the fuck up.

    And to the surprise of no one, none of them have been able to elucidate on what exactly trump could do that would be worse.

      They say that he'd nuke Gaza or invade Palestine with American troops. The first seems wild since the whole idea is to turn it into beach front property and the latter seems dumb since Trump isnt really a big fan of american soldiers going anywhere

        Every chud is pissed that were not spending the money on building the wall.

        I'm not saying that's a better use but they very explicitly keep saying they do not want to keep spending money on it.

        Plus Trump is disingenuously trying to be the isolationist candidate which is unironically a better position then bidens.

        Obviously it's total horseshit but so is everything Biden says, they're literally doing more just by paying lip service to it.

        I don't think Trump would actually be better because the joint chiefs are just going to tell him he's going to sign this bill or they'll beat him to death but that's just exactly what bidens doing.

    It's absolutely great that any condemnation of their own particular branch of racism can be brushed off with the thought-terminating "The Other Side is Worse!"

    Geez, it's like getting forced to pick between getting stabbed in the face or getting stabbed in the leg and being told "No, not being stabbed at all isn't an option"

      They're a lot more similar than face vs leg. It's like getting to be thankful for the privilege of choosing whether they drive the iron spike into your brain through your right eye or your left eye.

    They really are the worst. I knew a fuck ton in New York who virtue signal anti-racism but then say that countries like Germany have lower crime rates because they aren't as diverse. Even the way they'll speak to you when you aren't white or white-passing is condescending as hell.

    Also annoying is how heavily they fetishize non-white people sexually. Never had more middle-aged white women tell me about how they love Latinos like I'm supposed to be flattered by it.
