Since it’s hellworld, I’m sure the answer will be no but…is it irrational to ask ourselves whether their complete mask off moment is happening a bit too quickly?
Material conditions are getting worse, make no mistake. Capitalism is due for a catastrophic event. But, we’re kind of not there yet, and the chuds are making such a big stink about being the catalysts for this once in a generation (tm) extinction event in capitalism. And the amount of poo, So much poo, they throw it everywhere and they do it so loudly that even the most politically unaware are made aware of their pant shitting wrecking this paper tiger of an economy.
So that combined with all the flat out fucking weird and supremely distasteful shit they’re doing and saying makes me feel like they’re overplaying their hand. Atp they just have to kill all of us because i can’t imagine they’re not turning off a lot of normies
I dunno, there’s a lot of people who are pretty content with being bigoted through some veil of propriety, don’t think they want to fight on the kkk frontlines and be confronted for it. But I’m probably being extremely hopeful.
So every American administration has been “committing genocide” since 1948? I wonder why your shrill screeching doesn’t attract more converts to the cause.
saying true things sarcastically doesn't stop them from being true
Yes. Actually, long before that, but they weren't this genocide.
"You made me be Hitler by pointing out that I was already being Hitler."
I’m not being Hitler. Jesus, kids. Social media incentivizes maximalist positions, and this has clearly not been good for society.
You say, after describing opposition to genocide as "shrill screeching".
You're literally the meme lmao
You're right, I'm using hyperbole for a joking effect, hence the quotation marks. You're not even being a Hitlerite, technically, because it's a different genocide you're supporting, not the Holocaust. You can see how this doesn't make a difference for people who oppose genocide, though.
Based on some of these replies, I think more than a couple commenters here might actually support the OG genocide
You have no idea what you're talking about on several fronts here.
First, that you think anyone on this instance would support the Holocaust. We're comparing you to Hitler as an insult, not a compliment, just so you understand that clearly (though if you hadn't understood so far, I'm not sure how much this will help).
Second, that you think the Holocaust is "the OG genocide". This alone makes me think you are missing a lot of critical historical and political context for a discussion on any subject related to history and politics.
The term genocide was coined to describe the Holocaust, so it literally was the first one. Back in Genghis Khan’s day, they just called Tuesday.
This user is now banned, but I have to wonder if they have literally not heard of Armenians, to pick one incredibly famous example. It's almost like genocide existed before the specific word "genocide" was coined, which the inventor of the term explicitly acknowledged himself.
It was coined to describe the Holocaust years after the fact, applied retroactively. Like most words to describe actions, that does not mean it cannot be correctly applied retroactively to other events that meet the same criteria. Do you deny that the slaughter of Indigenous Americans was a genocide?
By my understanding, Ghengis Khan mostly did not do things that map on to "genocide." He was a horrific warlord who lead the slaughter of a baffling volume of people, but genocide does not simply mean "killing a whole lot of people."
At least from my understanding of history, his goal broadly wasn't purging ethnicities, it was owning territory and especially settlements to collect tribute from while crushing any military opposition. This is just what warlords typically do.
Absolutely baffling for someone to seem to think that a concept was created by the word invented to describe it. I guess murder didn't exist until someone invented the word either - we should get a time machine and kill that asshole before he has a chance to make that murder by inventing a term for it.
I can't tell if they just spoke without thinking about it, and then clumsily doubled down out of pride, or if they are that extreme of a Holocaust exceptionalist. I'm inclined to think the former, but idk
It has to be this, right? There's no way anyone actually believes something so incoherent...
now I'm sad I missed this lib, I would have loved to ask them what came first, the land or the map?
All those native Americans would've been fine if they just voted blue in elections that they weren't eligible to vote in.
you live on and jealously guard the bounty of a successful lebensraum and want to accuse anyone else of supporting genocide?
"if you oppose Israel's genocide then you support the holocaust! I'm not an Israel supporter though, honest!"
of course the heirs of hitler like yourself dont like radical ideas like "genocide is bad"
This stance is increasingly becoming the mainstream one. Spend less time on an astroturfed reddit shithole and that becomes apparent.
It's just escalated since 2023.
Netanyahu was waiting for Biden to say "All right, that's enough", as past US presidents had, but he never did.
It’s a convenient refrain. Instead of placing the blame on wealthy and powerful right-wingers and centrists who actually benefit from the preservation of reactionary politics, or giving credit to left-wing activists for challenging devastating right-wing policies, this narrative instead demonizes the powerless, while insisting that those who are fighting for a better world should simply give up, lest their agitative ways turn off potential allies and create another Trump. Who does this narrative benefit, and how do both overtly right-wing and ostensibly liberal legacy media allow it to persist?
google "native americans". you'll sound a lot less like the nazi kid from boy in the striped pajamas
that's funny, "it's the left's fault our shitty candidate lost" comes across as very shrill screeching to most people
I love the smell of dunked lib in the morning
Because of people like you I cast my first vote for a 3rd party candidate
In a swing state
