I wanna get that 50K signing bonus and then just bail out

Or just applying and forgetting just to tie up their system

HELL YEAH <3

I think ML isn’t for me but @Cowbee has been super patient in answering my questions and I’d love to consider them a friend

What’s your (or MLs in general) definition of “a liberal”? Real question, genuinely curious. The people (Americans) I know who would call themselves “liberal” don’t and wouldn’t support a “blood for oil” war like this. The liberals I knew didn’t support the Iraq invasion in the 2000s and won’t support Venezuela now.

It seems - and please correct me if I’m wrong - that MLs use the term “liberal” very broadly, even in a way that would include American Republicans and MAGA devotees. As in, anyone who lives (whether or not they like it) under a capitalist regime, like a Western neo-liberal. Or even, it seems like MLs call anyone who isn’t as far “left” as they are liberal.

Is there some kind of hypocrisy or irony subtext I’m missing? I don’t understand why this is a juxtaposition

It’s so weird that MLs post on a platform specifically designed to be federated and didn’t expect any friction for posting non-mainstream opinions.

It’s doubly weird that they lash out instead of using the opportunity to evangelize.

I’m more and more convinced that the consumption of political theory is more about tribalism than justice. Maybe justice only comes from tribalism…

That’s too reductionist for me to upvote. It’s like saying every bird is just a coelacanth

They take yuan in the USA now??? Opens my Bank of America app

Oh, so boomer-tier memes are praxis lol. Gonna hit me with a Minion meme next?

Upvote-farming choir-preaching tribeslop garbage. Is this praxis?

Love how lo-res this image is. 2000s vibes. I like to think that this is an Elder Meme that has been living on some obscure open directory for the past 20+ years

Came here to complain about this not being a shitpost, then I saw the brown snow 😐

Fr bro 😪

In the 70s and 80s, Nazi groups in America were very fringe, so the comedy comes from the juxtaposition that such a wackjob extremist group would take root in somewhere as banal and Midwest as rural Illinois was viewed at the time.

Now if you’ll excuse me, Carrie Fisher is coming after me with a battle rifle, I have to drive my used Cop Car with Cop Shocks and Cop Suspension through a shopping mall

I looked more closely and their heads have the same shading as the dots on the card back. OP posted an MtG meme and didn’t even realize it lol

Completely ignoring my own mortality, followed by crushing deathbed betrayal and disappointment

This reminds me of a heuristic I heard about once, about “punching up” and “punching down”. I heard about it used in a stand-up comedy context but it seems to make sense in a lit of other places as well. Punching down almost always seems unjust, punching up almost always seems just.

Yeah I saw that in your bio. Thanks for building that 😊 Life’s been stressful lately but it’s on my nightstand

Well, as someone who hasn’t Read Theory, the last line in the meme seems to disdain use of violence in a very general way. It was just confusing, but I see now that it’s just not well worded
