Yup, a few years ago i told a vegetarian that i was trying to eat meat less frequently and they said something like "if you're still eating meat then you aren't doing anything". Seriously? Such a militantly blind all-or-nothing nonsense take. Most people's reaction to that type of tactic is to say fuck it I'm purposely gonna eat even more meat now

All tankies are communists (purportedly), but not all communists are tankies. Tankies believe in Stalin-style militant communism, and will do or say anything to support their ends regardless of if it's objectively true or not. They will deny all harms that are caused by anyone who claims to be a communist.

Basically they're MAGA in a different claimed direction.

I have never encountered this situation. I literally am not even sure what situation it's describing

Completely agree. I've argued with people about the ways they're trying to advocate for causes that i very much care about. If you're advocating for a cause I care about in a way that actually hurts our cause instead of helps it, then you for damn sure are rightfully gonna hear it from me

I can't tell if this is authentic or satire

It doesn't look like the US. Hard to say for sure though

What does your comment have to do with the article?

I don't see how this can work out for the scalpers. If the prices are higher than retail then people would just buy a computer and play the same steam games on it

Is there an anti-26 sentiment that i don't know about?

Why is there a sign saying "blue corn" in English there? And why is it called "Johnson Town"?
