RIP Coffee. Had I known, I’d have walked.

There’s no question.

As long as this upsets people, he will continue to do it.

On that note:

I’d wager not a single far-leftist understands the terms of the MOU (or even knows what it is), has ever even heard of the FMF or FMS- or could point to Palestine on a map before this shitshow ever started, yet so many of them were/are willing to hold our democracy hostage over it.

And as far as my point goes, voting against a fascist is not in any way shape or form- showing support for genocide. But not voting against fascism is absolutely a show of support for fascism.

Hope this cleared things up for you.

She’s no more than a bilge rat that sees the ship is sinking.

So, you’re creating a different point of reference to show dissimilarities as an argument against something that had nothing to do with your references- and nothing at all to what I actually said…. LOL.

My point remains:

Both the far left and the far right accuse anyone that disagrees with them of saying stupid shit that was never said, or being stupid shit they never were.

But by all means, keep emphasizing yet another point people have against the far left: that you all whatabout and play some stupid version of three-card monte with the plot to the point that you force people to defend points they never even made.

I don’t fall for that shit.

Will do! Thanks bud!

Yeas. I forgot, this is lemmy: where hive-minded ignorance goes to ignore nuance while congratulating and weirdly- simultaneously competing with one another to see who can make the most smug and edgy response to things they don’t know what they disagree with but are told to.

And not just that, but it’s also where accusations are freely hung on anyone that disagrees with the flavor-of-the-week rhetoric of being a Trump supporter…

I’m guessing you probably don’t even see the irony in your comment accusing me of being a Trump supporter just because I said shit you don’t like- in a thread where I called out the fact that the far left accuses anyone that disagrees with them of supporting genocide.

(In this example, Trump supporter and genocide supporter are interchangeable if it wasn’t obvious)

when they accuse anyone that’s a hair’s width right of the bat-shit insanity of Stalin of being in support of genocide.

“Person that disagrees with my shit politics is programmed”

Isn’t this a bit too similar to how you all complained when people accused you of being paid bots during the election? Which is similar to how trump’s minions accuse anyone that disagrees with them of being anti-American?

It’s almost as if you’re trying to prove my point for me, but you’re too busy trying to be smug to notice.

It’s everything like that.

Did I not just spell that out?

Agreed.

And, it’s a bit uncanny how eerily close this is to that of the far left when they accuse anyone that’s a hair’s width right of the bat-shit insanity of Stalin of being in support of genocide.

They have distanced themselves so far from an alt-right ideology- that they have circled all the way back around to being comparatively identical in their absence of logic.

EDIT: take note how well my point was made in the responses I’ve received. I’ve been accused of both being “programmed” and being a member of truth social- just for points out the fact that there are people who will immediately accuse you of being something you’re not- just because you disagree with them.

(For the record: this was purposefully done to net these results. Some people are so predictable, you can essentially get them to prove your point for you).

This was all easily avoidable.
