    Meanwhile I made a post on a relevant thread yesterday lamenting that I had to block ml grad and hex due to the numbers of feral tankies, and that sometimes you even get fully horseshoed anti LGBTQ communists… but I left all that shit behind 6 months ago.

    Cue two ml users lambasting and moralizing me about how its really sick to make such false claims and promote a culture of dishonesty without links proving I’m not lying.

    So, 1, I can’t link because I’m banned from the specific communities I saw that shit in and tussled with people in.

    2, It was 6 months ago, but apparently the onus is now on me to go do all the work, otherwise I’m lying.

    3: This fucking post exists.

    Its continuously astounding to me that these people can do so much double think and brazenly use rhetorical tactics that have zero difference from what you encounter while attempting to explain to a MAGA cultist that the Storm is not going to happen or trying to explain to Ben Shapiro that brown people are not inherently inferior.

      It is zero difference because it isn’t the economics that are important to either group, it is the authoritarianism with brutal punishments for the outgroup.
