lmao those reddit dregs are really pretending they're not the whitest crackers to ever grace lemmy, the vitriol they have for black radicals alone was palpable in the first week

Also it's clear they've never engaged with this instance at all if they think our deal is simply being a chapotraphouse fan site, that wasn't true even back in 2019 let alone 2023, lmao why lie about something so easily disproveable

even the chapotraphouse subreddit had a running joke that nobody posting there was actually listening to the podcast

I didn't know Blowback had a funny symbol like that!

chapo-trap-house... what is this? they're talking about some podcast?

the only one we've ever listened to is citations-needed citations needed with adam johnson and nima shirazi. i have no idea what they are referring to

spend years reading leftist theory, but have zero real world experience

jesse-wtf

I just love this lib classic. I really do wish I lived in whatever "real world" these people live in where they don't feel even the slightest amount of rage at all the injustices imparted upon society by capitalism. Miss me with the pragmatism bullshit.

They have real world experience as a manager screaming at underlings to work harder and stop slacking.

i dont care for felix's voice or manchild persona.

Very few people want to admit that this is the end, the beginning of an imperial unraveling. I see all these debates over whether China is communist or not, whether they’re the fucking Third Reich or something ridiculous, or they’re the saviors of humanity. They all miss this very basic fact: China overcoming mass poverty on a scale we’ve never seen, China modernizing on the timeline and scale that it has, is the only generational human accomplishment of the last 30 years. That’s it. That’s the only thing anyone actually remembers in one thousand years if we’re still here...The United States, European Union, India, no one has any equivalent accomplishments...In America, though, you never hear about it.

Agreed. Podcasters in general are obnoxious at best and tend to involve the whims of the comfortably affluent doing the podcasts, no matter what they claim to be.

Don't besmirch all my personal friends like that kitty-cri

[-] UlyssesT@hexbear.net 1 points 1 year ago

I should have added "to me" to me calling them obnoxious. I may be an old man yelling at a cloud, but I can't help that. meemaw

Inform these people that you were raised by poor parents and you're currently working paycheck to paycheck and they'll tell you "just learn 2 code lol"

Fuck I hate these clowns

Ok I learned to code. Still the same as before but with a slightly larger tv now. What do now?

It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
