Snowflakes and boomers have the same toxic levels of self assurance in their righteousness, that's why we have a reacctionary wave now, both worse generations in the last 100y are imposing upon others their orthodoxies with no time for empathy or dialogue. The one with the most money is winning, predictably.

e.g. @Warl0k3@lemmy.world
Why in the fuck do I get <3 day old accounts to reply to my nerdy posts, on a nerdy thread‽ And it's not the only one! This one created an account JUST to deOP me.


anyways, verdi, if you are a real frenchie, why do I have to care about boomer’s opinions that aren't helping us compost the money havers?

I am talking about how intent and meaning differ, esp. when jokes need setup and indications through generations.

Oh god, now you're tagging me in your unhinged bullshit? This persecution fetish is really getting to be too much.

Just an e.g.. If you want to ignore it, it's fine. Won't tag you again.

"Oh tee-hee, did I harass you? It's not a big deal, I just used you as an example Im just a smol lil bean, feel free to ignore me!"

The reason you keep getting negative reactions to your content is because you're the kind of person comfortable behaving like this in public.

Ah, now you're just projecting. Have a good day then.

Christ, couldn't I at least live rent-free in the head of someone compelling? Did you legitimately just try and "No u" your way out of doing a shitty thing? God, you can't even cope with criticism when you go out and beg for it.

Trying being compassionate for once in your life.

You don't even merit my contempt, but you think you deserve my compassion? Buddy at best all you can hope to get from me is pity and even then that would be me being generous.

Edit: Struck a nerve, huh?

We just need a 100% inheritance tax.  Boomers and younger generations will never let that happen. 

[–] AntiBullyRanger@ani.social -2 points 20 hours ago

bruv, I am anarchist, tax is theft.

Oppression is oppression.

This shit has nothing do to with jokes or generational intents in diction.

You're in the wrong thread m8.
