They’re just like me fr

You’re the only one who put words in my mouth. Never have I said i am above criticism, or that anyone is. Maybe you’re projecting

I mean, this is on me for not mentioning anyone in particular, but you can’t tell me this site hasn’t been erupting with rage and judgment since the election results.

Congrats on pointing the finger right away instead of thinking about what you read btw. Only you are allowed to be judgemental, it seems. Doesn’t feel nice when it’s you?

Whose responsability is one’s ignorance? A ruthless individualist would place the blame only on the person, ignoring the world wround them and the community or lack thereof.

I think everyone has a duty to be the best they can, and everyone is responsible for themselves, yet it is undeniable to me that we all live, and especially the people from the US, in an information system that aims at eroding the truth and our capabilities to gather it. I also think an important part in how this corruption of information works is by also eroding our empathy for the people who are “dumber” than us. You dehumanize ignorant people. You can deny it, but so many like you repeat this. You will justify yourself, which is understandable, no one wants to be the cause of suffering. And yet.

Dehumanization is the weapon of the enemy, we do not need it, we will not use it. These people won’t magically get smarter if you hate on them, in fact, they will take refuge on those that present themselves as loving teachers, but are actually ruthless abusers.

I guess it’s cathartic to hate those ignorant bums, see where that leads you

You are delusional

Wait, you’re acting like it’s a bad thing

It’s not really new tho

Did i ever say anything about excusing anyone? Are you able to understand nuance? That there are more than two positions in the world other than “with you” and “against you”?

Can’t you see that this attitude is what alienated enough people to push them towards the fascists who just tell them everything they want to hear?

Do you seriously believe “gamers” is a solid label? That everyone who turned on a PlayStation voted trump?

Look, rage against people who voted for trump is definetely understandable, and I’m not asking you to forgive anyone. But the rage you expressed is just a catharsis shot toward anyone, and risks of making you see the world in black and white. It’s not, and the enemy wins when you think that. When it’s us against them

It’s all of them, all at once. Yesterday.

“We are against the big bad fsscist guy! But we still like to do fascism abroad, do not worry guys!” It’s not a particularly powerful statement to the antifascist, nor to the fascists

It’s the truth, plain and simple. Your refusal to see it is part of the problem

Those poow wittle democwats and their multi billion dollar super PACS…victims of the intolerant left! /s

Yes i did, thanks for pointing out someone might actually say this seriously, much like the poster before me. added tone indicator

I mean, they specifically say the market, but you’re probably right

I’m well aware, the tone was meant to be somewhat sarcastic

Yes, they are inhuman and our enemies and all their actions are without purpose, only hate. We must destroy them all!

/s

Anon develops class consciousness?

If you think this, you did not understand either if those statements.

There is no division because it’s an ontologically different view

Margaret Atwood saw it coming

This condescending attitude is almost ok when it’s done by voters, the problem is tgat the dem party constantly acts insufferably towards potential voters.

It is a party’s duty to appeal to the people, not the other way around. The dems proved once again that acting like “the least worst option” doesn’t work, especially in a disinformation economy like the US and frankly the rest of the world. It’s not the 2000’s anymore, respectability politics are hated by most voters.
