    I’m tearing up here for the poor US liberals fighting their culture war. Only such toxic memes can help them cope with the constant hate they’re bombarded with.

      Those are definitely words. I’m not sure you or anyone else can construe any meaning from how they are put together. But I’m proud of you bud. Branching out is part of growth.

        Lemme break it down to you. Your “funny meme” is cringe and basically boils down to “I’m a child and my parents don’t like my haircut lemme cry about it on the internet”.

        While I support probably 95% or so of the values the person in the meme represents, I would be insulted to be in any association with this meme or the way it virtue signals. Toxic, spiteful, arrogant, attention-seeking. A cry “you’re old and you just don’t get it” of a teenager. Bleah.

          And yet here you are, associating with it.

          “My” funny meme? Are you reading for comprehension? Do you need a gold star to make you feel you are contributing? Good job kiddo. You know how to make words. Next step is to string them together into what is known as a “sentence”. When those are complex they make something called coherence. Which you are MILES away from. But keep trying. One day you might get it!

            Don’t get so angry. Neither you nor the video were able to produce a single concise point. So far you’re showing that all your supposed linguistical skills are good for is whining and insulting.

              I enjoyed it and got the point. Just because it does over your head doesn’t mean it didn’t exist lol.

              You seem really upset and angry with people over this silly little video that does nothing and hurts no one. The things people take time to put negative energy into because they don’t like it.

              Who said I was angry? I’m clearly dealing with someone that over estimates their intellectual prowess and is a lost little lamb. I’m just trying to help ya fella!

      Have you looked at twitter in the past 6 months? It’s nothing but you republicans being assholes to us leftists.

      But go ahead, cry about it when we do it back to you.

        I live in Europe, I vote green-socialist, I’ve never been on twitter, you and the rest of the “liberal” US crowd make me cringe so hard it hurts.

        But spending time on lemmy has been very productive. I’m starting to understand why the political discourse in the US is failing so miserably.


        Look at an average Trump rally, listen to it, your brain will start hurting after 5 min. But you know what, following lemmings in ther “righteous” fight causes the same brain damage after like 10 min of scrolling.

        Let me reiterate. You’re as dumb as your republican friends. It just happened that you stand with lgbt and want social welfare, but your approach to promoting these values is absolutely equivalent to chanting “stop the count”.

        The thing I honestly hate most about American liberals is that they don’t know the difference between being on the American left and being a leftist.

            It’s an obvious symptom of their fundamental ignorance and continuing colonial attitudes. I hate it the most because it’s ever present and causes the most daily annoyance while simultaneously being a problem they could have fixed with a minimal self-education, not because it’s the most harmful thing they do.

          Maybe that’s because there’s no difference at all in America. We have a two-party system of government and “being a leftist” vs being on the “American left” would mean what in America exactly? Sewing your own t-shirts? Going to DemSoc meetings? 😆
