I hate when they smugly act like if Trump is elected then a switch magically flips and leftists will start to be oppressed.

NEWS FLASH ASSHOLES. IT'S BEEN HAPPENING THE WHOLE TIME AND BIDEN HAS ESCALATED IT. THE DEMS HAVE SPENT A BUNCH OF MONEY TO KICK LEFTIST CANDIDATES OFF OF STATE BALLOTS. THEY DON'T HIDE IT. YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT THE FUCK YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT.

The left in America has been literally attacked for decades. They've murdered and imprisoned so many leftists, we have to rebuild our institutional knowledge from scratch every new generation. Meanwhile, the same libs and reactionaries who killed Fred Hampton or Sacco and Vanzetti are still in office (okay maybe not for the latter, but it sure feels like it).

love how half of that shit is just liberals arguing how to create the perfect trolley problem meme to "debunk" those silly anti genocidal leftists/Russian assets. None of the death and destruction means anything to these people, they just want to win an argument for their team.

I've not made a .world account because I know, as much as I love dunking, the critical amount of hitler-detector in there would make me OD

Edit: I wanna go in there like a cringy online version of the irish dad in "come out ye black and tans"

[-] Wertheimer@hexbear.net 31 points 5 days ago

If I argued on .world I'd only get angrier at the libs I know in real life and I can't really afford that these days.

One thing I’ve learned this election cycle is how few people have any knowledge of utilitarianism.

Meticulously counting utility particles to determine which version of genocide is the most objectively good big-yud

You think genocide is bad tankie? Well take a look at this trolley probkem meme!!!! Bet you feeel pretty dumb now huh? smuglord

[-] the_post_of_tom_joad@hexbear.net 19 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago)

Gosh, so much to unpack in that "meme"...As i understand it the trolley problem's point is "is the switch thrower responsible for the deaths regardless of their choice?". So not only are they misunderstanding the thought experiment they're oopsie admitting that we are not at the switch but on the tracks and that they choose Palestinian death by throwing the switch for kamala.

[-] bbnh69420@hexbear.net 18 points 5 days ago

Answer still Trump-1 dead Palestinians

[-] goferking0@lemmy.sdf.org 13 points 5 days ago

The only thing surprising is the mods they're only locking the post because we got too many reports. Not that it had rule breaking stuff just that they'd need to actually act.

Hundreds of comments and the only argument from them is the same old "Trump tho".

None of them answered the question, so I guess that means the answer is ∞.

[-] Diuretic_Materialism@hexbear.net 40 points 5 days ago

Aw fuck I missed that one, I bet all the juicy lib posts have been deleted now.

Looks like libs are back on the menu, comrades!

"Surely my take that is exactly the same as every other one that has been dogpiled will be the one to change those Trump-loving tankies' minds!" hahaha

[-] TheLepidopterists@hexbear.net 21 points 5 days ago

There's a lot of life in this one, I was up at like midnight digitally yelling at blue Nazis while I fed my newborn last night and it's somehow still going.

If we put in effort we might make this one stay on top for several days too

Man it’s getting downright gross how liberals are just so blasé about their acceptance of Palestinians being murdered. improve-society

Man, it’s disappointing to see how uncreative FSB intelligence has become since China made Russia a vassal state. Can’t you guys find something new to blame liberals for? You can have this one for free, “liberals are so dumb that they’re going to elect a black woman as president and save American democracy for four more years!” very-intelligent

[-] BurgerPunk@hexbear.net 30 points 5 days ago

since China made Russia a vassal state.

jesse-wtf

save American democracy for four more years!” 

They can only save it for four years at a time. Then you have to vote no matter who in order to save democracy for four more years. very-intelligent indeed

[-] What_Religion_R_They@hexbear.net 22 points 5 days ago

democracy is saved when you have no choice but to vote for the same right-wing candidate in order to keep saving it over and over again

Someone actually wrote that? They use the same variation of the Russian bot accusation so often that it makes them look like an AI bot.

[-] UlyssesT@hexbear.net 16 points 5 days ago

Long before the treat printers were in common use, my-hero's cult used a sort of ad-copy recitation that went something like this:

"Humans must become an interplanetary species. We can't have all our eggs in one basket. E~L~O~N is just a better human that wants all his fellow humans to become better humans!"

They managed to talk like that without LLM assistance. Some people really are that conformist.

[-] REgon@hexbear.net 15 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago)

A system so fantastic that it is existencially threatened every four years if the only other party (which half the country votes for) manages to get the presidency. No we cannot do anything about it, the president doesn't really have any powers.

[-] REgon@hexbear.net 36 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago)

We need a version of what-time-is-it that says something like "sloptime"

When the liberals stumble onto a hexbear post.

"But I'm the lion in the rooooooooooooooooooom!"

[-] infuziSporg@hexbear.net 18 points 5 days ago

The premise of the thread is already liberal. You're not going to convince anyone with combative discourse, you're just going to get at least two parties to waste their time.

People don't change their minds based on facts and logic. They change their minds from something making them more open, and then being nudged in line with the target perspective instead of crashing head-on into it.

If you accuse a liberal of justifying or denying genocide, they're just going to see you as the irrational one, and then justify or deny it even more.

[-] LaughingLion@hexbear.net 19 points 5 days ago

i think thats the point it was pure liberal bait
