I think you’re getting caught up in the state being abusive and controlling to it’s citizens (as Dump is doing now) and society self-regulating itself for it’s own benefit (something that happens in all social groups) as being one and the same. Just because someone calls out another person’s bad behaviour, that does not equate to supporting a dictatorial, or similarly controlling, leadership.
Comment on The consequences (of my actions) have been extreme
LudwigVonPseudonym@lemmy.world 5 days agoIt implies that for a man, sucking cock (a legitimate sexual act for any gender) is an insult because that would make him gay. So Homophobic.
I swear, if left-leaning folks like you had your way the future would be a world like Demolition Man where there’s microphones listening to everyone’s conversations and people get fined every time they say something someone finds offensive, which is a retarded future I don’t want to live in.
BZZZZT! LudwigVonPseudonym, you have been fined one credit for a violation of the Verbal Morality Statute.

Hard disagree. Far-left-wingers would absolutely start jacking themselves off at the idea of someone being fined by a bot the moment they used a word like “retard” or “cocksucker” in conversation, and there’s no way you can convince me differently at this point.
The dystopian Demolition Man future that left-wingers want might not be as awful as the Cyberpunk 2077 future that right-wingers want, but it’s still not a future I want to live in.
The funny thing is, the majority of you folks on the left are utterly convinced you are the “good guys”. You aren’t. You’re just the lesser of two evils, which is the only reason I vote Democrat at all.

Theory? It’s just vibes-based politics with these people. They don’t actually think lol

^ Translation from Clueless to English: “I am too clueless to figure out that LudwigVonPseudony is referring specifically to US politics and not global politics”.
Yes, yes, we all know American Democrats are fucking center-right to the rest of the world, and you aren’t as smart as you think you are for pointing that out. Now sit down.
Triasha@lemmy.world 5 days ago
First of all, screw the Democrats they are not left wing. They are center right shitlibs, with a few milqtoast standouts like Bernie and AOC.
Second. You correctly look at democrats and see they are just Republicans lite, but your mistake is in thinking that going further left leads to greater power to the state to curtail speech, thought, and action. The left wants liberation. Economic and social. The power of government to celurtail speech is not liberation, it’s oppression.

What have far left (or far right, or even centrist) politics got to do with it? This is about what’s socially acceptable. Yes that feeds into politics and left/right/centre opinions, but I’m not discussing politics (nor was the person you replied to). Which ties in with my first comment that you’re combining politics with social issues erroneously.
Ultimately abuse is, abuse, is abuse, no matter how you dress it up.

Oh my god stop being a fucking retard, calling someone a ‘cocksucker’ or a ‘retard’ on it’s own isn’t necessarily “abusive”. Can it be? Yes. But not always.
This is about what’s socially acceptable.
And in case you didn’t figure it out? You Democrats and left-wingers lost that battle on what’s ‘socially acceptable’.
You lost to a fucking con-man, a felon, and a grifter. People chose that over you. And so far, very few of you have taken any time to sit and think about what you might have been doing wrong to cause that to happen.
Like I’ve said before, you Democrats and left-wingers love to think yourselves the “good guys”.
You aren’t.
You are just the lesser of two evils, and it would highly fucking behoove you to figure out why so many Americans view you as the “lesser of two evils” instead of a party actually worth voting for.

Where do they say that they want microphones listening to people? Just because someone doesn’t like some ways of talking, doesn’t mean that they want 1984-style surveillance of everyone.

Myself and the rest of the country will be “okay” when Democrats finally pull their heads out of their asses long enough to actually win a damn election instead of spending all their time wagging fingers at people over stupid shit like using the word “cocksucker”. In case you all haven’t noticed? There’s bigger shit to worry about right now.
BZZZZT! LudwigVonPseudonym, you have been fined five credits for violations of the Verbal Morality Statute.

LMAO you know what’s funny? That fucking high horse you rode in on.
For over a decade now, you far-left liberal Democrats have always thought yourselves the “good guys”.
You aren’t.
You’re just the lesser of two evils, which is the only fucking reason I vote Democrat at all.
Princess, I’m sorry the word “cocksucker” gets your panties in a bunch, but this is not the time for you to be blindly accusing people of being “bigots” just because they hurt your feelings.
No, this is the time for YOU to reflect on how bad of a fucking loser you and your party is at the moment, and how you’re going to do better in the future.
Want to see the problem with the Democratic Party? Look in the damn mirror.
You lost an election to a con man, a fraud, and a felon. Instead of wagging that fucking finger at me, how about YOU “do better” and take some time to reflect on exactly why that happened.
Either that, or continue being a fucking loser. Your choice.

“Far-left” and “Democrat” do not belong in the same sentence, ignoramus. Get educated. You can actually read, presumably. Deprogram yourself. You can actually do it. If I could do it at 12, you can do it today
