- Comment on YSK that everything the New York Times about Donald Trump actually happened 3 days ago:
No, the people who needed to be convinced were the on-the-fence independents who stupidly thought they’d get a better economy under “Trump the successful businessman” than Kamala “Joe Biden 2.0 Harris.” They’re the ones who dismissed Trump’s stated plans as bluster; the people you’re talking about knew he wasn’t joking and were counting on it.

This was only an SNL skit and nothing more.

Also British food: jellied eels. Cut up eels in jello.
Fuck that.

“Brazillion,” for those who—like me—were a bit slow on the uptake.
- Comment on I don't understand how Trump gets away with all his senial BS. How come everyone is telling him to piss off or use the constitution to shut him the hell up? 2 weeks ago:
Because he’s a useful tool of God!!!

If you see these and think, “I have no idea what those are, no cap,” you’re too young to be on the internet, go back to playing Roblox.
- Comment on Even if you're living in a hot country, cold showers are disagreeable. 4 weeks ago:
I’ve heard of the polar bear club and I totally get it (although they’re a little too extreme for me). The cold shock of relatively cool water when you’ve just come out of hot water is an exhilarating shock, almost like an adrenaline kick.

Not a coward. I just don’t think anarchists are smart people.
- Comment on Even if you're living in a hot country, cold showers are disagreeable. 4 weeks ago:
Absolutely not. I take cold showers in the summer all the time. I mean, they’re not super-cold, if that’s what you mean, but they’re relatively cool and designed to cool me off rather than warm me up (like the hot showers I take in the Winter months).

- Comment on Does smelling your food while you cook it make it taste bland? 4 weeks ago:
Does the first bite of a meal make the rest of the bites taste blander? Whatever your answer is, the same is true for this question you’ve posed.

Spoken like a true (dumb) anarchist.
- Comment on Who is going to be the next Pres of Venezula after all this US stuff? 4 weeks ago:
Whichever high-ranking person in the Venezuelan government agrees to give Trump and his oil barons everything they want.
- Comment on YSK about Israel’s “Samson Option”: The Nuclear Target List that includes American and European cities… 5 weeks ago:
If you think you can glean that much information from a couple text posts on an online platform, you are truly arrogant about your perceptive skills and should do a lot more reflection about how personal and cognitive biases influence your own judgment. I am not Jewish and have been very critical of Israel’s actions following Hamas’s attack.
But you will likely keep thinking that, just because someone doesn’t use the exact same language as you do, they’re clearly an apologist on the other side of the fight. That’s the kind of dumb purity testing that creates cracks within the very movement you’re trying to promote, by the way.

Wow, are you that precious about this shit? Clutch them pearls tighter!
- Comment on YSK about Israel’s “Samson Option”: The Nuclear Target List that includes American and European cities… 5 weeks ago:
I never said that. I’m plenty critical of Israel. I said that singling them out for something basically every country with nuclear weapons does makes no sense. Unless, you’re an antisemite.
- Comment on YSK about Israel’s “Samson Option”: The Nuclear Target List that includes American and European cities… 5 weeks ago:
I’m downvoting people here for being unreasonable asswipes, but I’m not Zionist and support the end of Israel’s violence against Palestinians. I also support the dissolution of Hamas and Hezbollah, and the imprisonment of Netanyahu. But a lot of people on Lemmy seem like they’re antisemite shills or bots, who want an end to Israel as a state, and those people can go fuck themselves.
- Comment on YSK about Israel’s “Samson Option”: The Nuclear Target List that includes American and European cities… 5 weeks ago:
I imagine every nuclear state has developed such extreme plans. Singling Israel out for criticism over it makes no sense.
Oh, unless you’re an antisemite, I guess.
- Comment on What is the difference between an American liberal and a liberal outside the USA? 5 weeks ago:
If you vote Democratic, you’re getting a far better version of leftist politics than the GOP. No, it’s not ideal leftist politics, because Dems are still beholden to US megacorps, and that is definitely a problem. But you can’t assert that because voting options are limited, political will is restricted to those options. The U.S. is undergoing a major political problem right now, which may well result in the dissolution of both parties and a broader multi-party system. You can’t just point to a country’s political parties and say, “well, they have only those two options, so they’re locked in forever, and those two options represent the entire country’s political will.” That’s ridiculous. There’s much to be said about the rise of far right politics in Europe right now, but you wouldn’t endorse opinions that the EU is trapped between far-left and far-right politics, would you? No, most people have views that register in-between. The same is true in America. We’re not so different from you. Stop pretending otherwise. We’re all human and we’re all part of a global civilization.
- Comment on What is the difference between an American liberal and a liberal outside the USA? 5 weeks ago:
Political spectrum isn’t just about political parties. The two parties in the US don’t represent the full spectrum of political opinions in the country. If you want to understand that, you’re going to have to dig deeper.
- Comment on What is the difference between an American liberal and a liberal outside the USA? 5 weeks ago:
Considering our political spectrum includes both democratic socialists that model their politics off of European leftist examples and actual communists who think China is a good model to follow, I’m pretty sure you don’t know what you’re talking about.
- Comment on What is the difference between an American liberal and a liberal outside the USA? 5 weeks ago:
If you think that, then you don’t know much about our political spectrum. Or—more likely—you’re just trolling.
- Comment on Star Citizen is on course to reach $1 billion in player funding in 2026, and we still might not get to play its singleplayer campaign next year 5 weeks ago:
I have never had anything to do with Star Citizen, and I don’t care that you’re mocking it. I just think you should pay more attention to your spelling if you’re going to do so. It makes you look foolish.
Anyway, I’m done explaining this to you. Buh-bye.

I made no mistake. You should mind your own education more and spend less time throwing shade online.
