So, basically, everything I said was true about you. I wonder why you spend all this time and effort trying to sound otherwise. Why not just say “of course” at the start? Or even “I see no real moral distinction between Biden/Harris and literal fascism, and will always find ways to blame Democrats for the evils of trump” it would have saved so much disagreeing with me.
I was especially amused at the characterisation of the only two real world choices for president as a false dichotomy! You’re so living the stereotype of an ivory tower theoretical communist.
Now that we’ve been all around the houses and you’ve evaded the real life D vs R question literally every time I asked it, I’ll just put my original point here:
I have the feeling that you would be inclined to deny the distinction between the Biden presidency and the trump presidency that followed it.
I don’t think you’ve proved me wrong in any meaningful way whatsoever.
You are unable to coherently make any genuine criticism of Mr Trump without watering it down to the extent you can switch blame onto Biden or the Democratic Party for it.
This is not because there aren’t extraordinarily stark differences, nor that you’re unaware of them, but because you refuse, despite evidence to the contrary, to shift from your belief that in politics there is black and there is white and there exists no grey.
Maybe someday you’ll realise that the real world isn’t perfect and that if it were, we wouldn’t need socialism or communism in politics anyway! Maybe you’ll realise that awful comes in different degrees as well as different flavours.
I think you’ll find that I’ve mainly been asking you questions rather than misquoting you, but OK.
I thought it was very very clear indeed what the two alternatives were for who is in the Whitehouse, and I’m sure we’d agree that they’re are theoretically much, much better alternatives like actual left wing parties, but no, I wasn’t asking you a theoretical question about parties that had no chance of winning in the USA at all, I was asking you about the real world. I’ll try again.
In your view, is it better for America to have a Democrat in the Whitehouse than a Republican, or not really?
Would it have been materially better for Harris to win rather than trump?
Would it have been better for Biden to win than trump?
And in your view, is it better for America to have a Democrat in the Whitehouse or not really?
Are you in any way able to criticise Trump or the Republican party directly, or for you is public enemy number 1 the Democratic Party?
I have the feeling that you would be inclined to deny the distinction between the Biden presidency and the trump presidency that followed it.
Why do you use the distro you use?
People said Ubuntu is easy, but I prefer green to orange so I went with Mint.
This is truly awful. Microsoft need to return to sanity. Awful awful awful.
I quote, absolutely directly:
both sides are the same
It’s a breathtakingly stupid take.
And back in real life rather than your imagination, we’ve got the actual rapist versus the guy who once smelled someone’s hair. Yeah definitely both the same. /s
Yeah, America is a capitalist hellhole, but the false equivalence you folks are pushing is absolutely astonishing.
It blows my mind that even now, there are people like you who claim they can’t tell the difference between Biden and Trump.
Bold of you to suggest that attempting to teach these people would change anything on the world.
You can lead a horse to water, but you can’t make it drink.
How right you are, and how wrong I am. The clues were there for me to pick up, like it’s in the name, and I’ve only seen hundreds of screenshots of it and i can’t quite believe I thought this for so long without even the slightest logical thought or questioning of the reasoning. Doh!
Yeah, I’ve never been to 4chan, but think a greentext is a specific type of 4chan post (with a green background) where the poster shares some story from their life, often starting with the phrase “be me”. Apparently there’s an oft-used catchphrase response “Fake and gay”, often followed up with reasoning like “Fake: nobody wears flares any more. Gay: op is clearly lusting after his homies.”
Like I say, I’ve never been there and this might all be very incorrect.
They moderate !greentext@sh.itjust.works
You are completely correct. Putin used to work for the KGB back when Russia considered itself communist. Many, many things are broken, including this meme and my attempt at a reinterpretation of it.
At first I thought “Nazis wouldn’t take communist dick”, but then I remembered Trump and Putin.
(The baby isn’t Palestine, though, it’s the global trade war Trump is starting or Elon Musk or JD Vance or something.)
Me: To be fair, you’d have to be pretty stupid to do that with your vehicle.
Also me: Having said that, you’d have to be pretty stupid to buy a wankpanzer in the first place.
