Welcome to politcal memes!
These are our rules:
Be civil
Jokes are okay, but don’t intentionally harass or disturb any member of our community. Sexism, racism and bigotry are not allowed. Good faith argumentation only. No posts discouraging people to vote or shaming people for voting.
No misinformation
Don’t post any intentional misinformation. When asked by mods, provide sources for any claims you make.
Posts should be memes
Random pictures do not qualify as memes. Relevance to politics is required.
No bots, spam or self-promotion
Follow instance rules, ask for your bot to be allowed on this community.
Yeah, we should stop shoving history in kids' faces at school!
Also, stop shoving the English language, science and math in their faces!
If they aren't learning how to mine ore, what is even the point of school, am I right?
Not what I said or meant in the least.
Weird how everyone here seemed to think otherwise.
Also weird how you deleted the comment if that's not what you meant.
It's called mob mentality, and is well known. And I don't want to keep pointlessly dealing with judgy people who seek not to understand but only to damn, but sure I deleted it because I was so super racist and against education that I couldn't help myself but I am also so cowardly that once people push back against my horrible views I cave immediately.
Excellent logic.
Speaking of logic, who is putting a gun to your head and forcing you to "pointlessly deal" with "judgy people" who respond to your posts?
What has happened to your agency that would allow you to not respond to such posts if you so wished?
Is this a cry for help? Should we be contacting the authorities to resolve this hostage situation?
If you took a moment off from being condescending you might understand I meant I don't want my inbox flooded with shit that makes zero sense for me to read or respond to
Again, are you being forced to either read or respond? I can call the FBI any time you like.
Feel better now?
See? This is exactly what I mean. You could have just ignored me and moved on, but instead you post a silly non-sequitur.
Feel better about what exactly? What was I feeling bad about before I started talking to you? Please explain.
I'm wondering if attempting to lord over other humans in a sense of absolutely-false superiority makes you feel better about yourself as a person.
I wouldn't know since I'm not attempting to do such things. I'm not superior to anyone. I'm inferior to pretty much everyone.
Is it possible you aren't as psychic as you think you are?
That’s exactly how you came across
Well I can tell you for a fact that I am inferior to both you and almost all the other 8+ billion people on the planet, so I can't really help that. If anything, that just is proof of my inferiority.
Mob mentality deleted your comment? That's so odd.
Mob mentality is why you fucks all think I'm a racist when I never remotely indicated that. Go away.
No, it's your comments that make people think anything about you.
You're right, mob mentality doesn't exist and you've definitely never downvoted a comment because others did. And you definitely didn't see downvotes and then think the person meant something bad that they didn't.
Because human nature doesn't exist. We are robots and perfectly logical always.
Yes, that's right. It's everyone else's fault but your own.
Seems like a non sequitur given the context was someone trying to deny that the USA benefited from slavery. If that is not the time, then when the fuck is?? Excuse my snark.
That is absolutely not what that commenter was saying.
That is the commenter.
Lol
How is teaching about it shoving it in people's faces?
I see nothing teacherly here
We are discussing teaching about US history and slavery in school. No one is trying to teach you anything here.
Shoving it in people's faces? Just say you are racist, jesus christ dude
What a bizarre accusation to make. Lemmy is absolutely shit if this is what happens here. Next time just say you don't understand and only want to judge. Jesus Christ, dude.
