Need a politics-free safe space? It's called "going for a walk"

"Why do people want to talk about stuff that affects their daily lives so damn much???"

[–] Erika3sis@hexbear.net 1 points 2 years ago

I just want a picture of a got dang hot dog

I deleted Reddit because those politics were too much Bs to handle, found myself in the same politics here as well x-x

Anti communists can stay malding

Hexbears stay winning mao-wave

Also every person who bitches about safe spaces: "ban dresses on men because it makes me feel funny"

[–] UlyssesT@hexbear.net 1 points 2 years ago

The people that whine about safe spaces tend to have safe spaces of their own, and glaringly so, like "free speech" forums that ban people for opposing nazi shit.

Lemmy has some very aggressive communists.

I’ve been lucky enough to dodge the crazy right wingers though.

[–] BurgerPunk@hexbear.net 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

thinkin-lenin i wonder if maybe not having right wingers has something to do with having aggressive communists to run hem off.

No. It must be lib magic

[–] dartos@reddthat.com 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I’m fine with the lesser of two evils.

[–] BurgerPunk@hexbear.net 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Thats a real self own. Do you think you voted away the "greater evil", or libs did anything to make them go away?

You are the lesser evil. And we're not fine with you.

I'm not your buddy lib. Why would i be your buddy when you think I'm comparable to a fascist?

I'm supposed to trip over myself to be civil to you when you call us the "lesser evil" to fascism?

[–] CheezyWeezle@lemm.ee 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Damn, we found their trigger word! Lesser evil! LESSER EVIL!

It's funny how hypocritical you are right now, too. You wanna label "liberals" as fascist, but get all pissy when the same happens to you with the same amount of credibility.

What's funny is that you lot all seem to fail to realize that "Liberalism" is not inherently left or right wing, unless you are a reductionist who doesn't believe that social liberalism exists and only believe Classic Liberalism exists. You all talk big about your political knowledge and how nuanced your beliefs are, and then you fall victim to the classic conservative notion of reductionism. Seeing "lib" used as an insult around here is just as hilariously pathetic as all the "snowflake" shit

trigger word

It's funny how

What's funny is

Terminal reddit brained response smuglord

I never called a lib a fascist. Liberalism is inherently right wing because its the ideology of capitalism. I understand that there's distinctions between different types of liberals, and between them and fascists. I did call libs like you and the other poster, to use their phrase "the lesser evil" because you support capital but arent fascists.

If you don't like being lumped in with other right wing tendencies then stop supporting capital. Its not our fault that reality is marxist che-si

Why are you lot so obsessed with reddit? Can't you leave that place behind? I mean, haven't you ever thought that people on reddit talk the way they do because its how most people online in general talk? Reddit didn't invent linguistic trope. I digress.

And what makes you think I am a libertarian? What makes you think I support capitalism? Just because I don't directly support your exact ideology doesn't mean you get to straw man the criticism away. You and your ilk with that and ad hominem, or some other fallacy. Never able to directly hold an argument on it's own merits. It's fuckin hilarious lmao

Why are you lot so obsessed with reddit? Can't you leave that place behind?

Can you blame people for being reminded of Reddit when you and your posts reek of Reddit?

I digress.

You and your ilk

ad hominem

Pretentious shit like that is the stench of Reddit.

And what makes you think I am a libertarian?

So far you've claimed not to be a liberal and not to be a libertarian, so if you're one of those very tiresome "I have no political ideology" bullshit artists trying to dodge labels to seem extra enlightened, as seems to be the case, that's actually a move that has overlap with both.

It's fuckin hilarious lmao

You like it that

It's funny that

It's ironic that

It's interesting that

Reddit minded people like yourself keep trying to mask their rage behind such tiresome "totally not mad" sentence fillers.

You and your ilk

Now this is a post I can get behind.

Take a hike, hug a tree, run your fingers through blades of grass, stare at nature and take it in.

Maybe even get a cheeky grill in while you're at it grillman

Alright so what you need is 3 large portobello mushrooms, ¼ cup canola oil (or oil of your choice), ¼ cup balsamic vinegar, 3 tablespoons chopped onion, and 4 minced cloves garlic.

First Clean the mushrooms; remove stems, reserving them for another use. Place mushroom caps gill-side up in a shallow dish.

Then Combine oil, balsamic vinegar, onion, and garlic in a small bowl. Pour mixture evenly over mushroom caps; let marinate at room temperature for 1 hour.

Go and Preheat the grill to medium-high heat; grease the grate.

Lastly, Grill those suckers over the hot grill until caramelized and tender, about 5 minutes per side; serve warm.

I'm getting the impression from Lemmy that there's an overrepresentation of the particular demographic of comfortable middle-aged bookish software engineers who live in the US or Canada.

[–] TrustingZebra@lemmy.one 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

On the other hand there's also an overrepresentation of tankies. I don't think those are the same people.

[–] ThereRisesARedStar@hexbear.net 0 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (2 children)

"Tankie" is to liberals as "woke" is to conservative liberals and fascists.

[–] abraxas@lemmy.ml 0 points 2 years ago (2 children)

What word would you prefer to someone who tells you to your face that they intend to "put you up against the wall" and then asks if you "know what that means, you fucking lib"?

I mean, I'm a demsoc, and of the last 20 death threats I have received in my life, 15 came from people who identify as Communist-Leninist. PLEASE give me a better word for them.

How many leftists do you have to execute to earn your colors?

None, just liberals willing to go along to get along with fascists. Which you are.

[–] SexMachineStalin@hexbear.net 0 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

Funny because of the dozens, if not hundreds, of death threats I've gotten, practically all of them come from zionists, NAFOs, keyboard nazis or the occasional trumpeteer.

[–] lolcatnip@reddthat.com 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Tankies don't get death threats from other tankies? I'm shocked!

[–] cynetri@midwest.social 1 points 2 years ago

no but trans people get death threats from "anti-tankies"
