So you’re making excuses for antisemitism instead of speaking out against it? You’re more afraid to do the right thing because you’re afraid of what your little hate group will think of you.
- Comment on It's only a class war when we fight back 1 week ago:
Just search for “palestinian protests at synagogues”
If you’re protesting at a synagogue in Canada you’re protesting Canadian Jews, not Israel. You’re against Jews in general, which is the definition of the word “antisemitism”.
- Comment on It's only a class war when we fight back 1 week ago:
Seems a little confusing of an analogy to choose with all the antisemitism going on these days.
Also not sure why you’d choose an uprising that failed to overthrow the Nazis, with many of the people involved dying in the attempt or dying in death camps shortly afterwards. The most of those that survived all of that immigrated to Israel or the US.
I’m not sure what you’re saying your goal is when this is the analogy you choose.

Who do you think you are in this scenario? Would you be with the guys using violence against Jews or would you be on the side that was against those guys?

Yes, your stochastic terrorism is indeed ok with the US President. You’re helping him by giving him a boogey man to justify oppression.
- Comment on It's only a class war when we fight back 1 week ago:
And stochastic terrorism is okay with you?
As long as it’s some other nutjob that kills some people and gets killed or jailed for life and negatively impacts the non-violent resistance movements, I guess it’s all okay with you?
You’re like that annoying kid in elementary school that’s always trying to get the other kids to fight for your own amusement. Psychopath behaviour.

- Comment on So um, america just started another war in the middle east. We're going to need a shit ton more memes to distract americans from the nightmare they are enduring. Thanks in advance... 2 weeks ago:
First we need to endlessly debate whether or not Kamala Harris would’ve done the same thing. Since we can never know we can all just assume posting shitty memes is more important than voting. We’ll tell each other it’s late stage capitalism so we can feel smart for doing nothing because it’s all going to collapse anyway, nothing we can do! Committed to being uncommitted! Apathy to the end!

Marion, this is a movie made in the 1980s and set in the 1930s, what the hell are you even talking about?
- Comment on The Elder God 2 weeks ago:
I’m wondering if the leftists will actually believe this. They seem to latch onto every other meme that presents geopolitics as some overly simplistic pattern.
I think some on the right believes a major world war happens every 70 years (or something like that) and the pattern totally explains wars for centuries! Well as long you forget WWI and the Napoleonic wars happened…
Also I don’t think “intervention” means what you think it means.

Yes lemmy indeed has a bit of a Nazi bar problem, with all the antisemitism that gets posted here unchallenged.

It’s talks about Russia and Iran doing some bad things and doing some sanctions. I’m not sure what you’re getting at with this?
- Comment on A metaphor for capitalism? 2 weeks ago:
Unwilling to have discussion indicates you’re afraid you might be wrong about things and discussion may bring that to light.
People who have thought through their positions aren’t afraid to discuss them. I could be wrong about some things, but if that’s the case then and a discussion brings that out, I can change my position, and then I hold stronger positions on issues.
Propagandists that are just repeating slogans are afraid to discuss the topics they supposedly care about passionately. If discussions bring to light their slogans are wrong, then that decreases their standing within their movement which is just a tribal group. The goal of the propagandist isn’t to further a cause it’s only to show loyalty to the tribe and increase their standing.
So go ahead and throw insults at me to prove your loyalty to the tribe. It only proves you’re incapable of growing your movement because you’re incapable of having a rational discussion. If you’re constantly promoting feelings of hatred to impress the political group you’re in, consider the possibility that you might be in a hate group.

If people here were saying racist shit about Palestinians I’d be arguing with them. I don’t see that happen on this site, but I see there’s a bit of an antisemitism problem and that’s something someone needs to address. When people get into a bubble like this and are constantly doing stochastic terrorism talk, some fucked up things can happen if no one pipes in to make people consider they might be going off the rails a little bit.
So I’m taking a break from countering racism and stochastic terrorism on this site to poke some fun at some leftists in a shitpost thread.
Is this really the best forum to discuss genocide? If you’re looking at my comment history, maybe just reply to one of the comments where that’s already being discussed. Well if you can get in a reply before my comments get deleted, that is. Not sure if that happens in an attempt the censor other points of views or to sane-wash out the crazy replies I get when I merely offer the point of view that most people in the world hold about a subject. Either way, at least some people that see them are reminded that not everyone in the world believes the crazy things that get posted here. You obviously saw some of my comments before they got deleted, so that’s a win.
I’ve had multiple people thank me for doing this in my DMs, so there’s dozens of us! And it saddens me the intimidation tactics that get used to squelch discussion of certain subjects on this site.
So, anyway stochastic terrorism is bad, antisemitism is bad, and socialism has failed many times in history. Lets see if I get banned from the “shitpost” community for saying these outrageous things, LOL.

Or a metaphor for socialism… lacking the economic freedom to buy more silk, the spider couldn’t escape an artificially designed system run by a central authority that didn’t predict this scenario, because it isn’t feasible for a central authority to predict every scenario.
Or maybe, given that the looks like the glass is outside on the ground so maybe the spider was put into the glass on purpose to make the photo? So the spider was sent to a gulag to die because it wasn’t ideologically pure enough.
Or maybe it’s just a spider in a glass and you can stretch a metaphor in any direction you want.

Yeah but the AI has trained people to reach a threshold of references in snarky comments. Without the CIA snark it would be below the threshold and this displeases our AI overlords.

- Comment on Too many non-working holidays in America. 2 weeks ago:
They worked on a ceasefire to get the hostages released. There is no world where Israel is ever going say “ok just keep our people there and torture them to death or whatever, we don’t care”. The only way there could be peace would be for the hostages be released.
The US isn’t an all powerful entity and the only source for weapons in the world. If the US stopped selling weapons to Israel, Israel would purchase weapons elsewhere. Less advanced weapons, which means less accurate, which means more people die when they do airstrikes on Hamas.
The Hamas propaganda only shows you the aftermath of a battle in a densely populated urban environment. They don’t show the Hamas guy firing at the IDF from the window of a building, they only show what happens when the IDF hits back. And remember the whole reason the IDF is in Gaza is because Hamas forcibly took Israelis into Gaza and is reusing to release them because they want this war they tell you is a genocide to continue forever. Hamas can end what they’re saying is a genocide at any time by releasing the hostages. Why don’t they do that?
- Comment on Too many non-working holidays in America. 2 weeks ago:
Yeah there’s that myth that if you make people work more hours more work will be done. It all makes sense on the spreadsheet!
Reality is the workers are human, humans get tired and you aren’t getting more work out of anyone by making them work more hours. You’re just making someone be at a place longer because you can.

So leftism is about wanting more comfortable public benches for the homeless to sleep on, while liberalism is about not wanting people to be homeless at all?
Do you ever get tired of needing to be outraged by everything all of the time and just want to be in a society where people actually work to improve things rather than just expressing impotent outrage? Ah but that would require doing work and leftists don’t want to do any work or they might be screamed at by other leftists for being “liberal.”
