Chanting, "Death To America" while you're holding your Starbucks you got on 24th and Lander, in your Levi's and your Nikes, before you head to Applebees for a beer and some riblets, is the stupidest bullshit I've ever heard.

You like this lifestyle? It doesn't exist in 90% of the world. Maybe pump the brakes on hating the nation you live in that affords you perhaps the highest quality of life for the general population in the entire world?

improve-society but also rebbitor seems to think it's 1924 and the US is more advanced and has higher living standards than the rest of the world? like people don't wear jeans and sneakers in 90% of the world? like there aren't hundreds of millions that have better lives then the average USian, like the USians also haven't forcibly exported their garbage "culture" to 199 countries in the world and there are sniff shtarbuchs koffie and macdongle's in every shopping mall in asia and europe?

I love that all the things he named are just consumerist garbage. No mention of Healthcare, time off, affordable housing, a social safety net, none of it. Nothing that actually matters. And I have to wonder why he didn't 🤔

Also this lifestyle makes me want to die.

it's really a perfect summation of American culture. there's no actual culture to be proud of - the American lifestyle is just a bunch of shitty brands (that exist everywhere) and food that kills you.

[-] riseuppikmin@hexbear.net 53 points 5 months ago

The softest ban I ever got on reddit-logo was in some post about how "it's not okay to say america doesn't have culture" where I said I agree and that its culture is vapid consumerism

That first guy is projecting so hard, bet that's his personal Applebees order when he eats there every week. It's weirdly specific.

It is one of those cheap off cuts of meat they try to rebrand into something fancy and sell for a high price. They are good bits but the marking push is annoying

[-] DyingOfDeBordom@hexbear.net 21 points 5 months ago

Oh so like when i take all the little bits that come off the chicken thighs and turn them into popcorn chicken

Yeah, only it's based when you do it. It is crige when a corporation does it.

There's a small chance that post might be parody because I can't genuinely believe that even the worst of the burgoid empire would be willing to defend riblets

And why is that?

[-] DamarcusArt@lemmygrad.ml 19 points 5 months ago

It's always confused me how Americans seem to think the rest of the world live in mud huts and are medieval peasant farmers or something. Like they just flat out don't seem to understand that other countries exist in the 21st century. I guess that's the only way you can compare the "American lifestyle" to another country favourably, if you pretend the rest of the world is stuck in the 1500s.

[-] HumanBehaviorByBjork@hexbear.net 17 points 5 months ago

I realize, objectively, that putting all the most annoying internet commenters up against the wall first would be horribly inefficient, but I really don't know what else we could do.

Oh my god, these people. I can't stand it. They're calling the demonstrators "conservative Muslims." There's a claim in there that these chants are a response to American laws against racism, and implications that American Muslims want to kill all Jews.

This is outright Nazi ideology and I hate all of these people. They can't for a single second think about why Muslims in Michigan might dislike Joe Biden. Their minds can only imagine they hate Biden because they want to be Republicans. It's good team bad team stuff again.

I shouldn't even be surprised. I remember when liberals not even 20 years ago were always defending their American patriot credentials based on how many Muslims they wanted to kill.

Also, death to America

[-] LaughingLion@hexbear.net 45 points 5 months ago

nazi ideology? i think you mean maintstream liberal thought

[-] VILenin@hexbear.net 36 points 5 months ago

Liberals found a progressive way to screech about how crackers are under attack by the brown hordes.

All this pearl-clutching about “antisemitism on the rise” is just woke white supremacy.

The amount of 9/11 style rhetoric coming from libs is... Well not that surprising actually. I thought more people thought like me when it came to that stuff. I'm not special. I'm not more educated than a lot of people. I consume the same media as everyone else...

How are people so bloodthirsty

I think your link is a unique "share" link used for tracking who clicks on it

https://www.reddit.com/r/privacy/comments/18u7q0v/reddit_now_tracks_whose_links_you_click_and_this/

Don't use the share function/button of websites, just take the link you want to share from your browser's URL field directly like this:

(you can also leave the part at the end (after the last slash) out if you want, I think it's called a "slug": https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clean_URL#Slug)

My father actually works in a secretive US Government position, in a "very actually hush hush" type of job.

[-] roux@hexbear.net 27 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

My mother-in-law worked in a similar position. It's fucking hilarious because if I'm around at a family thing at all and politics gets brought up, she's all like "we don't talk about that stuff, hush!" Because she knows I'll say something. The family knows I'm "left-leaning" but most don't know just how far to the left.

But meanwhile, if she's around just her daughter, my actually gay wife(MiL doesn't know she's bi) my MiL will just be like "I think the gays shouldn't exist and trans people should get it worse."

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
