Liberals have had over eight years to steady the ship, and they’ve spent that time alienating marginalized people and progressives and going farther and farther right with afaik no real resistance to trump. They’ve spent those eight years proving that we can’t trust them at all to stop fascism or repair its damage. We should probably be pushing progressive democrats to start a new party with other more left people (though I’d fully expect republicans and the remaining democrats to team up and destroy their campaign so idk)

Nah :/ I’m getting better but I still struggle with not being aggressive like this.

edit there was a bunch more aggressive stuff I wrote here and on other comments, maybe I should leave them up idk. i just don’t wanna gunk up the fediverse with rambling about a stupid grudge I have

"Palestinian protestors chose to discourage voters from voting for “genocide Joe”. " there were a bunch who didn’t tho. Afaik most pro-palestine protestors voted for Kamala, including Palestinians. And again, even if they’re a small group (I’m pretty sure they’re the majority) why are you bringing it up in every discussion about Palestine? Do you think we were all vocally against Biden, or are you saying nobody should’ve protested the genocide in the first place, or shouldn’t have blamed it on Biden?

You only give a shit insofar at you can use it as a bludgeon to beat every Palestinian over the head with. Unless there some other reason why you’re so desperate to remind people “Palestinians deserve this for supporting Trump” multiple times on multiple posts?

It’s not even that deep down anymore cx at this point dems are literally at/right of Reagan on a ton of issues, and certainly more supportive of Israel

So this is why liberals don’t give a shit about this?

Damn y’all really are straight evil. “Some of these people didn’t side with me politically, so fuck all of them” literally not even trying to beat the “left wing of fascism” allegations.

First they came for the Palestinians. I didn’t speak out because some of them voted for Trump so fuck all of them. You know how the rest goes, and hopefully you’re smart enough to know that that supporting or staying silent on this is horrible for everyone, even wh-te l-berals like you

“I AM ONLY POINTING OUT THE RIDICULOUSNESS OF GATEKEEPING APPS BASED ON THR ABILITY TO SEE PEOPLES NAMES. AND THAT THEIR COMENT HISTORY IS RIFE WITH REMOVALS AND BANS- INDICATING THEY ARE A TROLL.” False. You and everyone else started on them before other apps were ever brought up, and I’ll admit that was kinda silly for them to get upset about. But don’t act like this is about that when it’s very clearly not. And all you have to do to get comments removed or get banned is disagree with the mods of any major instance, like by saying trans people or Palestinians deserve rights on a .world comm or not liking fascism or the taliban on .ml. Doesn’t mean shit about whether or not someone is a troll or a sock puppet, but go ahead and research it since they and I are living rent free in your head rn.

“NOTHING IN MY COMMENT HAS ANYTHING AT ALL TO DO WITH TRANSGENDERISM IN ANY CAPACITY.” Then how come people being misgendered is just a difference in opinion to you? Why did you get so upset about them just correcting a case of misgendering? If you’re cool with trans people, surely you’re cool with pointing out when somebody gets misgendered and won’t freak out if somebody does

“Who downvoted me? My words need to be respected” is a hell of a way to misconstrue somebody wondering why correcting a blatant case of misgendering got them shit tons of hate. Again, why the hate for that unless they’re against respecting trans people? This isn’t any more clever than when Nazis say “oh everyone is a Nazi to you” while flying a swastika. The fact that you think disrespect is the proper response to respecting trans people says a fucking lot about you and all the other cissies in these replies.

Are you done? Or have you not gotten tired of defending and downplaying transphobic bullshit on the Internet?

Nothing screams mature like one or two dozen comments dogpiling someone who corrected what looked like super blatant misgendering. Why is it so important to dogpile somebody who corrected misgendering? Why not just move on like a normal person and not act like downvoting someone for pointing out misgendering isn’t weird?

In the off chance you’re not arguing in bad faith here, seriously what’s the point of this? Somebody corrected some misgendering that looked blatant and pointed, and didn’t even have that strong a reaction to it, and you and like 20 others downvoted and dogpiled them for it. Why? And it started before lemmy apps were even brought up, so that’s not it. If you or anyone else who downvoted think trans people deserve respect, why are you spending so much energy punishing someone for respecting a trans person’s pronouns? Explain how downvoting someone into oblivion for correcting misgendering does anything good for trans rights

Hey look, a liberal that doesn’t like queer people! Who could’ve guessed :D

Very convenient how you skirt around why people are actually downvoting the person saying you shouldn’t misgender people. When the way people “see the world differently than you” is that they think trans people’s identities don’t deserve respect, they’re not owed a respectful response

Imagine whining about this person being disrespectful when you’re wasting this much time and energy excusing misgendering xD that person screwed up, you don’t have to be a dick about it. They were blatantly, obviously misgendering. What are you trying to accomplish by defending that?

How do you see the world differently to them? Go ahead, say it

Trans rights, quit lying to defend the people who want to outlaw my existence

edit Ooh hey the comms you moderate explain a lot about you :D why are you such a blatantly lying, hateful asshole?

“Fascist hate speech and platforming fascists and inspiring fascist violence doesn’t make you a Nazi, calling people out for it does!”

When did he apologize? I’d love to see a video where he acknowledges that saying slurs and paying a homeless person to hold a sign that says “kill all Jews” and platforming multiple far right fuckers was wrong
