If only we could get them to be less afraid of everything that they’re unfamiliar with, or familiar with everything they’re afraid of, maybe they would lash out in fear less.
I deduce that your phone never randomly locks while you’re using it as a satnav. Lucky you.
Yeah.
Perhaps ++C == Java or something.
I’m sure that’s offensive to some, so apologies for airing the thought.
Edited. Criticised a mode of debate rather than an individual.
I’ve edited it to make it more factual and perhaps less emotive by replacing the phrase “republican troll” with “republican pretending to be left leaning” and provided a link to where they replied “cope” when I pointed this out to them previously. I don’t know if you can see the reply, it won’t expand for me, but I promise you that’s what it said. I don’t know whether you count arguing in bad faith just to persuade your political opponents not to vote as trolling, but I certainly feel it’s not good behaviour and worth pointing out to folks who are taken in.
Only in order to pursuade folks not to vote democratic (which is bizarre because Trump and his party are pretty rabidly on favour of “finish them” outcomes in Gaza).
Link: https://lemmy.world/comment/12097015 I can only see the reply “cope” in my inbox. On the website the 1 more reply never expands for me.
I hate this idea that it’s somehow principled to allow the fascist to win. How can you tell the difference between a right wing troll trying to let their KKK supporting maniac destroy America, Palestine and Ukraine, and a left wing person with principled objections who wants to vote against Harris? You can’t. They’re advocating the same actions with the same outcomes. I can’t tell which you are, but please wake up to the real world or shut up trolling people who actually care.
In fact it was “Heaven Sent” Peter Capaldi. Series 9, episode 11. 28 November 2015.
Note: Linkerbean is a republican pretending to be left leaning, here just to dissuade left-leaning folk from voting dem.
I said so to them a while back and their reply, since deleted, was “Cope.” https://lemmy.world/comment/12097015
Downvote and move on, but you’ll get only nonsense if you engage.
They’re referring to Doctor Who, a fictional “time lord” who used many theoretical lifetimes to bash a hole in an impenetrable wall, dying many times over (not a big issue for him), if I recall correctly.
People who proport to support Palestine, but advocate actions that allow a win for Donald “I’m the best king of Israel ever” Trump and his “Finish them” Israeli bomb-signing Republican party aren’t being honest with the people they’re debating with.
It is utterly unprincipled republicanism when people PRETEND to care and then advocate allowing the fascist KKK racist maniac genocidal republican party to win.
It’s still going! That’s fantastic.
Lynx! I loved lynx when I had dail up internet.
Wow. This would never have happened on reddit! Go us!
This is the kindest thing. Thank you so much.
