Dear lurking liberal shitheads who bashed communists and others who said they refused to vote for genocide no matter how much you claimed they were helping Trump usher in a world of fascist darkness.
Congratulations. I hope you get a good refund price for all the smug moral superiority you've been lugging around for 10 months.
I hope you get a good refund price for all the smug moral superiority you've been lugging around for 10 months
I hope they don't, learn something for once clowns
They won't learn anything, we've got 100 years of precedence for this.
Lol I fucking DARE any Lib lurkers to show their fucking faces in this site right now. Seriously, show yourselves COWARDS!
In case you missed it one already popped into this thread and the response was vicious lol
10 months
More like 100 years. It's the same story once again.
They won't care. Just as fascists refuse all consistency and analytic precision in their thinking as long as it gives them access to power, liberals refuse all consistency and analytic precision in their thinking as long as it lets them claim the moral high ground.
Says while doing nothing other than bitching online, all smug and full of moral superiority.
Seriously, you don't get to do nothing and feel superior. If you don't vote, it means you are ok with either choice. If you are not ok with either choice, take to the streets, start your revolution, do something, but DO it, don't just say it.
Not voting, not taking action in politics, calling people names and then complaining after the fact is not morally superior to anyone, nor is it helpful to any cause. And no, posting online is not taking action.
Also, will this opinion get me banned? Just asking
Not voting, not taking action in politics
Voting is not action. If you vote and don't do anything else, you are not taking action in politics.
It's one more action than doing nothing and just complaining non-stop, which is what a very high number of people does all over the world.
No, probably not but you'll just get dunked on a lot lol.
You'll get banned for being fascist though.
You’ll get banned for being fascist though.
Yep, thought as much. Being called a fascist for saying to either participate in the political life of your country or take to the streets and actively protest, don't just stand there with your cock in hand, writing silly posts online, """dunking""" on people from the comfort of your couch and being the epitome of the radical chic. A keyboard lion, all mighty and proud, counting absolutely nothing in the real world.
And I repeat, not voting and doing nothing is exactly like saying "I'm fine with either option"
actively protest
Do you have any idea how many people here on hexbear and lemmygrad are involved in actual revolutionary organizing?
I can't vouch for most people here specifically, but for my part I can tell you at least some of us are doing actual movement and coalition building and others here can attest to that.
That is why we don't give a fuck about investing any energy into electoralism and this is not the place for such talk outside of c/electoralism and even there the intent is to contain electoral politics in one comm that people can ignore because it's a waste of time without an actual movement to pressure bourgeois politicians.
The work that CLN is doing for example has actually improved the real material conditions of more people and saved more lives than 99.9% of any vote you could ever cast, and Biden is actively hostile to us and the very existence of indigenous people in this country.
You aren't being called a fascist, just a smug condescending chauvinist who needs to shut the fuck up sit your ass down listen to those of us who know what we are doing and learn something or get the fuck out of our house.
We all post here specifically to avoid assholes like you because you're all over the rest of the internet and the rest of the country.
@frauddogg@lemmygrad.ml Your rage is rubbing off on me lol.
Your rage is rubbing off on me lol.
Rage is a powerful motivator, comrade-- harness it well, and you can flip a city with it.
“To be a Negro in this country, and to be relatively conscious; is to be in a rage, almost all of the time. ” -- James Baldwin
The funniest part about all this is that this ignorant motherfucker doesn't get it that my vote in California means nothing and after that assassination attempt none of our votes matter at all if they even ever did. He was already going to win but mark my words, after this Trump wins in a landslide I guaran-fucking-tee it.
Do you have any idea how many people here on hexbear and lemmygrad are involved in actual revolutionary organizing?
tbh no, all I see everyone talking about is either about "dunking on the libs", whatever that means, circle jerking about some dictatorship somewhere in the world or complaining about the USA.
You aren’t being called a fascist, just a smug condescending chauvinist who needs to shut the fuck up
Nope, he definitely said fascist. Also, thanks for the free insults, I'ma leave now, good luck with your organization
No you were told that you would be banned if you were being a fascist. We let libs like you stick around till you say some mask off bigoted shit.
tbh no, all I see everyone talking about is either about "dunking on the libs", whatever that means, circle jerking about some dictatorship somewhere in the world or complaining about the USA.
No investigation no right to speak, I have posted a lot of stuff about what sort of praxis I am engaged in and folks here have donated to the efforts of our org more than almost any other source.
You just fixate on things you can't understand. As I said this is a space for us to shitpost and communicate with other serious/supportive comrades.
People like you get rightfully bullied until you shut the fuck up and do the work, do the reading, or listen to your peers.
Right now you seem to be doing nothing but screaming "VOOOOOOOTE" and vague gesturing toward "protesting" without any seeming understanding of the underlying organization and theory required to make protest effective.
Anyone can "protest". Building an effective movement requires a whole lot more and that is where I say that it is more important to invest our energy into agitation and movement building and relation building than it is to take precious time out of a work day to vote for people that want to kill us.
Last chance to start engaging in good faith and drop the smuglord liberal shit before I call on you to be banned.
all I see everyone talking about is either about “dunking on the libs”,
Because if we talk about the actions we were at, the exact movements of the organizations we're almost all parts of, or the formations we've contributed time and effort to, that could be a PII-spilling self-doxx, you absolute fucktrumpet. As seen by the way the FBI has come down on the Uhuru 3, as seen by the way the Atlanta Cop City protestors are facing RICO charges for their protests, as seen by the way people who donated to their legal and bail funds have been getting persecuted, WE CANNOT AFFORD TO VIOLATE OUR OWN OPSEC SO SMARMY FUCKBAG LIBERALS LIKE YOU CAN POOH-POOH ABOUT IT.
By all my ancestors, do they just not teach critical thinking anymore? Don't respond to me, or really anyone here until you've cut a check for a bail fund, put money on somebody's commissary, or faced down cops at a picket you peckerwood shitstain. Stay your cracker ass out, your energy is bad and you have no works worth acknowledging.
By all my ancestors, do they just not teach critical thinking anymore?
In most schools in the US not really actually. They teach you to memorize what is on the standardized tests so they can meet some arbitrary metrics and secure more public funds for performing according to the metrics set by a bunch of Karens on school boards and geriatric state legislators.
They don't even teach people how to source shit anymore or how to be media literate online like they did back when the internet was becoming a thing.
If I could add one thing to the curriculum of every high school in America there would be a required media literacy class and the course material would be to listen to every single episode of
Citations Needed.
I said you would get banned for being a fascist. I didn't call you a fascist. You'll get banned if you post fascist comments.
I don't know why you think this. I don't think protests are all that effective.
This is peak liberalism, the only thing they can think of beyond the ballot box is "protesting" but only in a way that is not productive and consists of holding signs (but not to offensive ones) and then clearing the streets as soon as the fascist pigs tell them to.
Being called a fascist for saying to either participate in the political life of your country or take to the streets and actively protest, don’t just stand there with your cock in hand, writing silly posts online, “”“dunking”“” on people from the comfort of your couch and being the epitome of the radical chic. A keyboard lion, all mighty and proud, counting absolutely nothing in the real world.
We're not dunking on you for telling us to do something outside of voting, we're dunking on you because you came here all smug, as liberals typically do, telling (mostly to yourself, probably) that we don't do anything because that's the only way left that you can still pretend to have the moral high ground after your "We NeEd To VoTe 99% HiTlEr To KeEp Out 100% HiTlEr" narrative crumbled.
Here's something to try cramming in your libworms infested brain: just because you don't see something doesn't mean it doesn't exist, especially when you haven't even actually looked.
We do in fact take to the street and protest, a lot of us go to protests in their areas, a lot of us are part of a political organization or plan to join one in the near future, when someone ask what we should be doing, protesting and organizing are everyone's reflex answer, it's what we emphasize above all.
not voting and doing nothing is exactly like saying “I’m fine with either option”
"Fine" isn't the right word but we indeed don't care who win the election between the 2 since we don't buy the liberal gaslighting campaign that Biden isn't as bad as Trump.
Says while doing nothing other than bitching online
And what the fuck do you think you're doing right now? You don't have any arguments to defend the status quo so all you have left is assuming everyone here is as much of a worthless basement dweller as you
Voting, while not organizing or taking real action in politics, calling people names accusing them of "bitching" and then complaining after the fact is not morally superior to anyone, nor is it helpful to any cause. And no, posting online about vote blue no matter who is not taking action

Great, just fucking great. Not only is he garbage - his brains are continuing to leak out of his ears!
0:31 "Thankfully former Trump is not seriously linjerd."
04:09 "But in America we resolve our differences at the battle box. That's how we do it - at the battle box not with bullets."

He's right, we all get together at the battle box and fight with the giant foam polearms from american gladiators.
i was just thinking about this the other day.. i used to watch this on saturday mornings when i got up a little too early for cartoons
now they have ninja warrior on primetime
now they have ninja warrior on primetime
In a way - I feel very disconnected to America. Right now I'm in the middle of binge watching the original Twilight Zone. I have no idea what current American pop culture is about. I assume I saw the words "Ninja Warrior" at Hexbear but I had no interest in it so I didn't google. I just watched the show for the first time in this clip - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wOVat4QLLE8
It's an abomination of American reality TV that's aping one of the best Japanese televised sports of all time.
Facts, Sasuke was heat but the Amerikan flavor feels watered down and Fear Factor adjacent. Half certain a bunch of the Amerikan courses are chopped down and truncated too from their original inspirations as far as heights and lengths are concerned
yep.. that's it.. its like an even shittier version of american gladiators

REDI VSI BLUEI no wonder they so much love the faux cyrillic since they also butchers their own script
My wild hunch is that it was the first take and he simply refused to do another.
"Remember-remember when the Linjurd-burg baby was kidnapped? I remember. I remember. I was in Scranton PA like it happened yesterday. I said "Pop, is the Linjurd-burg baby gonna be okay?" And he said "I dunno, son. But you need to recite the Declaration of the Pledge of Allegiance before you brush your teeth and go to bed." So I did. The next day the Linjurd-burg baby was dead. It was sad. So sad. Mom was crying but I think that's because Dad was mean to her about her cooking. And she was a very bad cook. But still everything was so sad."
"And now President Lininjurd Burger was linjurd in the ear-derburg. Almost dead too! America needs to return to its roots. I called Donald-land-o-burger and I told him I as praying for him and I'd help him in whatever way I could. He said "Yeah, whatever." So I know things are gonna be okay. There's nothing we can do - if we do it together. Nothing we can do..."
Biden misspeaking again
But real ones know what he meant to say: That Americans settle their differents at the BattleBots arena,

Whoopies sorry there folks, we didn't mean to imply we had any convictions, or values, or beliefs of any kind, we were just bullshitting for votes sooorrry
I'd say the Disco Elysium quote is evergreen but honestly it's increasingly clear Moralism isn't even about control.
"Greatest threat to democracy ever? That's just a slogan Jack"
Straight up sounds like something Solidus Snake would say lol
@frauddogg@lemmygrad.ml (SUPAVILLAIN) is one of my favorite posters in the whole fediverse, your righteous anger and vicious teardowns of liberals and chauvinists gives me strength.
Old-school "in a world" movie trailer voice: "The buddy cop movie you never expected to see... They said it couldn't be done... Biden... Trump... Lethal Weapon VII..."
Would never work, no way is Biden ever gonna say the words "I'm too old for this shit"
Just have him say "I'm too good for this stuff," and then use AI to fix his mouth and the words.
He calls tbe trump supporter a hero lol. $5 says the trump supporter would’ve celebrated if Biden got shot
I saw a tweet of his where he was saying the Palestinians would “get over” being bombed like the Japanese.
He calls tbe trump supporter a hero
I like heroes that don't get killed.
This is a lot like that time Trump got covid and the r/politics mods were handing out bans for not having adequate emotional investment.
Even my Christian, somewhat conservative grandma was like "I hope he doesn't get better" when he got covid. I'm not sure what she thinks about this shooting but having called him a nazi before she is probably disappointed the shooter missed.
I think all the civility handwringing from lib leadership is tailing a big chunk of their base.
Ngl im loving watching him fumble everything under the sun
Doesn’t even feel like he’s the president lololol
Don’t think a campaign has been this big of a tirefire in history. This dude is taking L’s, sometimes through no fault of his own, but then also doubles down on the L taking.
Pure masochism on a level those on the right and left can’t even comprehend, the libs insist on greatness in this realm.
The parliamentarian said he can't deliver on any campaign promises until he is re-elected.
Every single time I can't even fathom what Biden could do to cede more ground to Trump.
And every single time he figures something out.
And we still have four more months worth of new lows to go.It really doesn't, I've been thinking that since the debate. It's a weird feeling
Probably say how good working with Trump was during his presidency thinking about Obama.
I pick up my Staff of Shit-Stirring and wave it over my head, calling the Lemmy Libs to explain themselves.
Oh I've already talked to libs about this. The excuse is that Democrats are expected to be the party of civility and if they don't act like that they lose suburbanite moderates that will think both parties are the same if Democrats are rude.
Unlucky you. Ugh if someone says "When they go low..." one more time, I'm going to bury the US in a blizzard.
And I really just want the lemmy users to come here and explain their bullshit ideology.
okay, now they need to explain those suburbanite moderates
or even better, explain why their votes are worth losing however many times more votes from people who are repulsed by this two-faced rhetoric
worth losing however many times more votes from people who are repulsed by this two-faced rhetoric
I tried to suggest this being a thing to them but they insist there's more of the surburbanite moderates.
makes you wonder, who does believe trump will replace democracy with fascism? do the suburban moderates believe that? does the democratic party believe that?
is there anyone who simultaneously believes that, opposes that, and yet wants to be civil to him? how many people are in that venn diagram?
Unfortunately I do think there are people who sincerely think Trump will end fascism but also think that you have to be nice about it because thats how the system works. Its a cognative dissonance they are more than willing to just accept because thats how its always been. They are unable to adapt to the moment.
then don't wait for their votes! use presidential immunity to do something before the election!
they're so annoying I'm starting to argue with them through you lol
I'm pretty sure you meant trump will end democracy, but it's really funny this way
It's faith. You perform the Rituals according to the scriptures, put on your best behavior, and you will be rewarded, on this election or the next.
"Make America great again" - Trump
"To make America so to make America what it is to think about it what's make America so special" - Biden
You can see the teleprompter from the window's reflections. You can just make out the letters scrolling from Biden's forehead lmao
Genuinely surprised he hasn’t forgotten who’s side he’s on and blurted out out ‘vote Trump’
"We need to get Trump in the crosshairs!"
"No, not like that!"
Hexbear and r/neoliberal are in agreement on this.
This might be the end times.
am I doing this right?
