“You are evil because you stand for [thing you don’t stand for]!”

“Authoritarianism”

“You have no principles! You just side with a team!”

“[Invents shit out of their ass]”

Like girl, do you work at a cinema because you do make quite the projector. Like daaaamn.

The lemmy.blahaj.zone instance is even more annoying to browse than back on reddit because something (we know it’s lemmygrad) made their anticom tendencies spike.

Don’t they think, like even once, why is it that trans positive, lgbt, lefty and anticapitalist memes attract tankies? Not even a hint of retrospection on why they find more of us than rightoids?

I just want the memes without being told that I’m supposedly a person that I’m not. Bruh.

Annoying.

(PS: I can’t read chinese xddddddddddd, I just like the crab. He’s funny and is chuffing a fat dart, and it’s all that matters)

    Name a single capitalist country that isn’t also authoritarian. Like fuck…

    E: I just read through the comments. I guess I gotta go tell literally everyone on my private commie discord that they are out of the club because they are all LGBT+. You know, Because the West is a bastion for homosexuality. I guess I gotta break it to them that they are all libs since they are gay.

    “Someone further down in this thread posted a link to an essay of dessaline’s (a lemmy dev and admin of lemmy.ml) full-on denying the Uyghur genocide.”

    They post this like it’s some big gotcha. Their supposed genocide that somehow nobody in a country of over a billion people has anything more than “trust me bro” prove of and countless independent parties have confirmed isn’t happening.

      You know it’s weird how sometimes making huge accusations means you’re put under less scrutiny, not more. I think when there’s a lot at stake, people tend to pick the side that doesn’t rock the boat. Regardless of whatever evidence

      I mean, I really doubt that many people are gonna take a stand against their government, their media, and their friends, family, and coworkers over a topic that has little bearing over their day-to-day life. Especially when it means they’re gonna get ostracized/fired.

    honestly lemmygrad is the only instance I browse because anything else is filled with insufferable people spewing some of the worst opinions you’ve ever seen. I get enough of that in my personal life

    since the west is leading the charge in embracing the queer community

    this is one of the most painful things i think i’ve had to read in my life deng stare please tell me how america, where most states have laws banning access to gender affirming care and trans people are murdered daily, is “leading the charge” in embracing the queer community

    Lemmy users are just reactionaries deluded into believing that they are progressive.

    That would require a critical look at their own positions and ours, which they’re unable to do.
