  • Sure, fundamentally people who engage with a right wing version of a populist message are still looking for the same things. But where the separation happens is how these groups deal with negative externalities.

    A random person who is part of a right wing coalition in the US will burn down everything good to ensure that someone they don’t like doesn’t get even a taste of a good life. Then you just have convince them who that enemy is. Compassion is a true weakness when the person you are compassionate for isn’t you in a mirror.

    I’m not saying you don’t reach out with a message, I’m saying don’t be fooled into thinking people who agree with making a living wage and universal Healthcare agree with EVERYONE making a living wage and having Healthcare. In fact they would rather not have it if it means you also get it.














  • It’s funny, I keep seeing you comment about how spicy the comment section is, but this is one of your first responses.

    I think the problem is your shower thought just feels so painfully obvious to people, hence the comments vs votes. This person is trying to show you why it feels so obvious, and your response seems to denote both an understanding and an ignorance, it’s childlike.

    If you are American, you had like an 80% chance to be born into a family that celebrates a traditional xmas, tree/present/Santa, with Jesus being a common addon, but with an entirely separate mythology kinda tacked on to it.

    So you have a tradition celebrated since youth, attached to a national holiday, where the religious part of the tradition is unconnected to the fun part. Santa Xmas is totally secular. It’s would be more notable if you didn’t celebrate xmas. Which is why basically everyone finds jehovas witnesses so odd.

    Just kinda of a mid shower though, more of an I’m 14 and this is deep. Which if you are, no shade, just explaining.



  • A video exists of Hasan Piker pulling his dog Fish back hard by the tail while saying if the dog moves he will “literally kill him”. I’ve seen it. Anyone who can treat animals like that is rotten inside. His followers who can ignore shit like that either don’t care how he treats animals or have put their head in the sand about it.

    It’s ok to admit you like Hasan Piker and his message more than you care that he has abused animals on film. It’s silly and cultish to pretend anyone who has also seen these things with their own eyes is a fan of some other also piece of shit steamer. These people are all pieces of shit.

    Your lives are bookended by assholes.
