Vibes based politics, history is not the antagonism of classes, it's the antagonism of good personality traits obviously, that's why really nice people like Napoleon did so well

They should’ve accepted Hitler into art school and this whole mess could’ve been avoided

[-] BakerBagel@midwest.social 33 points 5 months ago

We all know that artists can never be racist. Salvador Dali fought so much fascism they had to kick him out of th surrealists because he was too busy fashing the fash.

Definitely how that played out.

[-] Tommasi@hexbear.net 67 points 5 months ago

"nerd the left-wing authoritarian personality construct" lmao shut the fuck up weirdo, who unironically believes this shit?

[-] PKMKII@hexbear.net 34 points 5 months ago

People who think material conditions are irrelevant and that history is shaped by the Myers-Briggs category of the Great Man in question.

[-] roux@hexbear.net 27 points 5 months ago

Idiots just hear fancy theory words and then use them in random amalgamations to feel smart don't they?

Like this is so common I wonder if there is a term for it. Sort of a linguistic version of Dunning-Kruger?

[-] GrouchyGrouse@hexbear.net 10 points 5 months ago

It's the politics version of the thumb shaped cop saying shit like "I ascertained the kinetic threat quadrangle hypothalamus ordinance of the pursuit vehicle service weapon" to describe backing out of a parking lot.

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

People who need to come up with a reason for why believing in and standing for nothing is actually better than having principles and trying to improve the world.

[-] TreadOnMe@hexbear.net 10 points 5 months ago

There are alot of psychology-major and docorate soc-dems who absolutely believe this, as it gives them an academic reason for their passive compliance with a system rife with inherent violence to distract from the fact they inherently profit from it because the more trauma there is, the more there is a need for their services.

I've literally heard it said irl, this chuckle-fuck isn't smart enough to create this argument, he's aping it from people who actually went to school.

There is nothing more narcissist in politics than centrism.

[-] PKMKII@hexbear.net 55 points 5 months ago

At least chuds are entertaining in how unhinged and off the wall their takes are. There’s a ton of mental gymnastics needed to explain how bike lanes are a Marxist plot to destroy white Christian culture but gymnastics have spectacle. Centrists are pure annoyance because they’re the pure embodiment of unearned patronizing.

[-] ShimmeringKoi@hexbear.net 22 points 5 months ago

Naked, taking down to everyone with their eyes closed, dick flagging in the cold wind

That's the guy advising not to show the hammer and sickle because it offended some victims

[-] EmoThugInMyPhase@hexbear.net 59 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

It’s also the same guy who was a nazi one (1) year prior to making the channel and getting caught doing weird ass holocaust race play with his discord kitten

[-] SacredExcrement@hexbear.net 49 points 5 months ago

A "centrist" being an unironic fascist? In MY America??

[-] umbrella@lemmy.ml 40 points 5 months ago

how can you post something this juicy and not link it

Believe his dad is also a literal arms dealer for a major U.S. weapons manufacturer and he got really uncomfortable when the people in his Twitch stream were saying eat the rich because that included him.

[-] amphibian@hexbear.net 16 points 5 months ago

HAHAHAHAHAHA WTF??? PEOPLE CONSIDER HIM A LEFTIST????????

[-] Leon_Frotsky@hexbear.net 15 points 5 months ago

Also his grandma's fanily literally owned a plantation in Cuba under Batista. Which has meant he's spent a load of time trying to claim gusano is a racial slur.

[-] SkingradGuard@hexbear.net 8 points 5 months ago

Should call him "Gusanoism Done 'Left' "

[-] amphibian@hexbear.net 6 points 5 months ago

hes actually tried arguing that???????????

I could be a CEO that pays people to lobby against consumer protection and environmental regulation who also rents out entire neighborhoods of single family homes but since I pay lip service to pride month I'm a radical leftist. Isn't liberal politics great and coherent?

[-] PaulSmackage@hexbear.net 8 points 5 months ago

It's rumored that he's also related to Richard Bissell Jr., but he's scrubbed so much info about himself from the internet that I could only really find articles of him being on a debate team.

[-] amphibian@hexbear.net 10 points 5 months ago

Personally, if you've made edgy jokes about Black people in the last five years, I'm not sure you need to be the one to educate others on the politics of the left. You might have more learning to do yourself.

[-] sinstrium@hexbear.net 26 points 5 months ago

Is he part of the "reformed gamergate anti-sjw pro-bernie radicarlo" grift?

[-] EmoThugInMyPhase@hexbear.net 46 points 5 months ago

This is literally just god complex with a bunch of political mumble jumble thrown in to look smart. Wow, a narcissistic, arrogant asshole got people to drink kool aid and fuck their wives? This is classic leftist authoritarian personality complex

[-] kristina@hexbear.net 39 points 5 months ago

not narcissism = hoarding wealth like a dragon

narcissism = giving food to hungry people, giving housing to the homeless

[-] coeliacmccarthy@hexbear.net 39 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

centrists are more annoying than chuds, liberals are more annoying than centrists, socdems are more annoying than liberals

expectations are higher the closer you get to humanity. it's why the weyland-yutani corporation is more hateable than the xenomorphs

[-] viva_la_juche@hexbear.net 35 points 5 months ago

Sdl talking about narcissism farquaad-point

[-] Frank@hexbear.net 34 points 5 months ago

"Personalty constructs" stfu and get in the locker, nerd marx-guns-blazing

the-doohickey now define what features distinguish " authoritarian" and "non authoritarian" states and if i like your answer

[-] sinstrium@hexbear.net 34 points 5 months ago

Is it really "old left history" when socdems & libs keep repeating the same BS? Like everything that lenin wrote is still true, even "the economist" is still there.

The modern day Phrenologist instead of skull shape to measure intelligence they use personality

[-] Awoo@hexbear.net 25 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

Evolutionary psychology is bullshit.

Only fascists try to make political alignment about genetics and biology. This person is a nazi.

[-] Dirt_Owl@hexbear.net 7 points 5 months ago
[-] Adkml@hexbear.net 25 points 5 months ago

Yea were the narcissts not the people convinced they're better than everybody else because they believe in nothing except triangulation.

[-] idkmybffjoeysteel@hexbear.net 24 points 5 months ago

source: I pulled it out of my ass. I fingered my ass until it began to leak, and then I scrawled my "findings" on a page and published them. Here. On Twitter.

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

LOL, MLism and Marxist principles are entirely about destroying individualism and helping the prosperity of the community before anything else. Clearly this is comparable to wanting to genocide "inferior races" for the future of the white man or whatever

[-] SkingradGuard@hexbear.net 21 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

That's a social fascist

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

He came up with pseudo-psychological categories to pathologize the people online that anger him, when he could have just given food or money to a homeless person instead smh.

[-] Lemmygradwontallowme@hexbear.net 15 points 5 months ago

Projection much, SDL (Socialism Done Left)?

Dirt_Owl, I don't think this guy's even a centrist... just a pathetic social chauvinist 'Marxist' that can't even Ultra-left right....

[-] Dirt_Owl@hexbear.net 6 points 5 months ago

Maybe. When I see "Both side bad" I tend to default to assuming centrism

"The leftist brainpan is predisposed to narcissism"

[-] bigboopballs@hexbear.net 9 points 5 months ago

scratch a centrist and a chud bleeds

[-] The_Filthy_Commie@lemmygrad.ml 8 points 5 months ago

A chud moving to the center is a lib, a lib moving to the right is still a lib, a lib moving to the center is peak lib, and a lib turning into a chud is a scratched lib.

[-] ksynwa@lemmygrad.ml 8 points 5 months ago

Wasn't this dude outed to be extremely racist?

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
