I cough like this all the time now

The original tweet is not even correct in any way. Ilhan Omar is not from Puntland, she's from Mogadishu. Her father is from the area of Puntland. But Puntland didn't even exist on a map until 1998 - when Ilhan Omar was 17 years old. No one in her family, including her, ever lived in a place called "Puntland." Her father was basically from the area that became Puntland, but never lived in it at any time it was referred to as "Puntland."

Furthermore, the Puntland flag is from 2009 - 14 years after Ilhan Omar's family was in the United States. Not even her father has any ties to that flag, its extremely modern. Chuds will just find anything to get worked up over.

edit: Puntland didn't even exist until 3 years after Ilhan Omar's family was in the United States

edit 2: furthermore, I'd love to see EndWokeness' source for "largest Somali population in the west" because I don't think that's true either. I'm pretty sure London has more Somali people than Minnesota.

I guess you either go the idubbbz route and apologize/repent for all your past edginess and denounce that version of you and all the fans who still hold on to it or you become a nazi.

Pretty much yeah. I enjoyed a number of his videos since it was sort of nostalgic to relive Kony 2012, fyre festival, leroy jenkins, some of that pre-gamergate 4chan stuff, but yeah I pegged him as a 4chan nazi immediately just based on what he chose to cover. idubbbz, joji, tyler the creator, earl sweatshirt - that's really the way to do it. Recognize you were wrong but also young, and move forward.

You guys are behaving EXACTLY like Trump supporters

Right, throwing a fit because people criticized your favorite little media treat is not chud behavior at all, meanwhile criticizing those treats for being reactionary and transphobic - exactly like Trump

Yes, the workers are wrong. This is a better way to do it. Unfortunately, many waiters really do come out ahead with tipping, especially those working at higher end restaurants, conventionally attractive by euro standards, or just really good people skills, so they argue tipping is good actually. It benefits some individually, but collectively a lot do not end up with more money this way. It’s part of the whole pull yourself up by your bootstraps ideology - yes you theoretically could do better with tipping, but how many do, compared with the many who don’t? But of course restaurantbusinessonline would prefer business owners still be paying less than minimum wage, so they find those workers whose interests for whatever reason line up with theirs.

It’s so easy to support Palestine when it’s under attack by Israel. Everyone who today is shedding tears for Gaza was a couple weeks ago calling for blood going “Israel has a right to defend itself.” Well they got what they wanted, they should be celebrating. One would hope this would cause some self-reflection in westerners but we all know it won’t, in fact this is a situation that is desired in those same westerners. They are happy to support opponents of imperialism when those opponents are being killed off and displaced and on the run, but they can never support those opponents of imperialism when they are actually materially threatening imperialism.

Drawing a picture to get upset at

Literally every time I read something like this

But then I remember I barely leave my house due to Covid, don’t really like meeting people or going out anyway, and the last relationship I was in we broke up because she held extremely bourgeois values and was an anticommunist. So sometimes the women are just as reactionary as the men, and also I do myself no favors being a crank shut in. So it actually makes complete sense why I’m single.

One thing I have noticed is that when a dem is in office it becomes much easier to tell who your comrades are.

I do think the trump era did move a lot of people left, but in the end we all saw how so many radlibs just went back to brunch once Biden was elected. If someone’s opposing a dem while that dem is in office, I think there’s a much greater chance that person is committed to some sort of leftism. With a republican president we just get liberals with radical aesthetic, like “the resistance.” Sort of dumb reason to be pro-dem but just something I’ve noticed lately.
