Yeah I get it. But every time I see something like this I think of all the guys pointing at this and saying “LOOK ANOTHER LIE FROM THE LEFT” and I hate them being right about anything ever.
I don’t really give a shit, they’re going to call us liars anyways. I shouldn’t have to uphold some crazy journalistic integrity as a regular person shitposting about assholes. Fuck em, I say lie as much as we can. Smear the shit right on their faces.
My issue is that there is absolutely more than enough truth to smear them on. Why lie when we don’t have to? Why shoot ourselves in the foot like this?
Even broadly, at the far side, roughly speaking, without even dividing up across other criteria or gradations of economic “leftness”, nor other quirks of specificity…
anarcho left. -10,-10 to -0.01,-10
libertarian left, e.g -10,-5 to -0.01,-5
moderate left, e.g. -10,0 to -0.01,0
tanky left. e.g -10,6 to -0.01,6
totalitarian left. e.g. -10,10 to -0.01,10
fake left. e.g around 5,5
One of these is not like the others.
… Well… the others are not like the others either…
But that does not matter to those who only speak of the fake left, as if it’s not not left, as if it’s the only left, calling it “the left”.
Fake shit like this actually irritates me.
Lol why you subscribed to shitposts?
I’m not. It showed up on my regular feed.
Apologies. Shitposts is gonna be annoying for you though.
oh no
the internet
Man, if we can’t take posts in a shitpost community seriously, what can we take seriously?!?!
world affairs
On one hand, I fully agree with you.
On the other, I find there to be a poetic irony to people just making shit up about him.
Yeah I get it. But every time I see something like this I think of all the guys pointing at this and saying “LOOK ANOTHER LIE FROM THE LEFT” and I hate them being right about anything ever.
I wouldnt take anything I see on the internet seriously, especially in a community like one that has the name “shitpost” in it, lol
Well you aren’t really the person I worry about taking this seriously. I’m sure you’re an intelligent person.
Do you worry about people taking things seriously?
I worry about enough people taking something seriously that it helps fascism take hold, yes.

Agreed. But JD totally fucked that sofa.
They do this when we tell the truth too. Why not muddy the water with something so trivial as a CK tweet?
Because both sides-ism is not only a losing tactic for the left, it’s also dumb as fuck.
“the left”
like there’s only one.

It’s not both sidesing to not hold ourselve to a stupid high standard, going high got jack shit.
Also how is just straight up not lying about stupid shit a stupid high standard?!
Liberals didnt go high, their politicians LIED ABOUT A TON OF SHIT and now nobody trusts them.
It’s a joke.
Completely restraining from existing because fascists will call you on any little mistake is pointless - they will make up an excuse if none is given.
People who diss Obama for tan suit yet rally behind convict deserve no power over any of our actions.
I don’t think you understand what fascists do.
Correct me.
I don’t think you’re understanding my point my friend.
I know just what you need
Lol flawless
This is a Shitposting sub though 🥴
Yeah, but this is not really a shitpost. It’s just a post that’s shit.
Ooh, shots fired.
Yeah but you understand where I’m coming from right?
Guys, guys! This dude is coming from the right, get him!
Yes, I do.
