    the last two paragraphs could be verbatim on a neo-Nazi forum and it wouldn't be at all out of place.

    but it already is on a neo-nazi forum

    There's something odd about the words "tankie" and "woke" appearing in the same sentence. Usually the former is only said by liberals, and the latter only by chuds. Truly, stupidpol is the synthesis of libchud ideas.

    Also the GDR already figured out that gay people weren't counter-revolutionary, what, 30 years ago? Why would furries be put in re-education camps? Let alone people who just aren't in great shape.

    Deeply unserious.

      r/stupidpol looked at the caricature liberals painted of communists and said "Yes, this is a good thing that we should strive for"

      what, 30 years ago?

      It's been well over 30 years since the dissolution of the socialist bloc. Homosexuality was decriminalized in 1968 (so 56 years ago).

    most bigotry ultimately boils down to "is X group of people stupid or do they secretly want to be destroyed?" because those are the two easiest ways to dehumanize someone. both lines of thought protect heavily against concluding the sincerity of the people.

    Petition to force anyone calling their political rivals "skinny fat" to post their squat personal best or shut the fuck up.

    Who knew that a sub that started out as a splinter group of r/chapotraphouse, because its members had a hard on for accusing Native Americans are being "anti-white ethnonationalists" could end up sounding no different from a 4chan neo-nazi thread

      I had no idea that was stupidpol's origin story and it explains so much. I always thought that sub was created to make fun of liberals who cynically exploit identity politics.

      My most chud opinion is that Native Americans need to have a demographic majority in America.

      No, the sub was created in 2017 after their members were banned from r/chapotraphouse for egregious and open racism against Native Americans
