Tankies when you mention any democrat

[–] FE80@lemmy.world 8 points 4 days ago (6 children)

They both bomb the middle east.

[–] Lumidaub@feddit.org 30 points 4 days ago (3 children)

They also both breathe air. Wait a minute, do YOU breathe air too??

[–] moonshadow@sh.itjust.works 13 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago) (2 children)

The analogy that bombing poors is to the commander in chief as breathing is to normal people is probably a little more based than you meant it to be

[–] Lumidaub@feddit.org 3 points 4 days ago (2 children)

Cool. Though I don't know why you're telling me since that's not an analogy I drew.

[–] Sharkticon@lemmy.zip 4 points 4 days ago (2 children)

You absolutely did. Just unintentionally.

[–] edible_funk@sh.itjust.works -1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Sure if you discount literally all context and nuance, but that's kinda the tankie playbook innit.

[–] Sharkticon@lemmy.zip 3 points 3 days ago (1 children)

...did you mean to reply to me with this cause it made no sense.

[–] edible_funk@sh.itjust.works -2 points 3 days ago

I'm sure it didn't to you.

[–] Lumidaub@feddit.org 0 points 4 days ago

The Author Is Dead, you're entitled to your opinion and whatever I may have intended is of course of secondary importance.

[–] moonshadow@sh.itjust.works 4 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Is there another interpretation of "They also both breathe air. Wait a minute, do YOU breathe air too??" that I'm missing somehow?

[–] Lumidaub@feddit.org 1 points 4 days ago

It's a fairly straight forward look at some other things they (and possibly the person I was talking to, jury's still out on that) have in common. No value judgement.

[–] edible_funk@sh.itjust.works 1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Hello ten day old both sides account.

[–] moonshadow@sh.itjust.works 1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Hello, angry and paranoid high-volume commentator. I made this account when slrpnk went down, and have immense faith in collective action and our shared humanity. No war but the class war :)

[–] edible_funk@sh.itjust.works -1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

If you're parroting nonsense that amounts to both parties being the same then you're here in bad faith in the first place.

[–] moonshadow@sh.itjust.works 1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

If you're here just to drive-by purity test strangers I wish you'd leave!

[–] edible_funk@sh.itjust.works -1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

You're a ten day old account trying to discourage democratic voters. There really needs to be a way to easily identify and block ml alts.

[–] moonshadow@sh.itjust.works 2 points 3 days ago (1 children)

None of those things are true, while you're observably frothing and confrontational. I tried humor and gentle explanation already, whatever your problem is it's something I'd rather not engage with

[–] edible_funk@sh.itjust.works -1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

You tried being a condescending snarky asshole. I didn't take your bait. The point stands that only idiots think both parties are the same while only one party is actively trying to undermine an election and disenfranchise voters.

[–] moonshadow@sh.itjust.works 1 points 3 days ago

I mirrored your approach beat for beat in a genuine attempt to relate. I hope you have a nice day, and think going outside could help make that happen. Pretty sure I can't though! Please be well.

[–] Semi_Hemi_Demigod@lemmy.world 8 points 4 days ago

You’re right.

All people are awful and none of them should be in charge.

[–] jumping_redditor@sh.itjust.works 4 points 4 days ago (1 children)

are you discriminating against people that breathe oxygenated perflourocarbons?

[–] Lumidaub@feddit.org 3 points 4 days ago

Not at all. I always failed Chemistry though, should I?

[–] III@lemmy.world 11 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Did they both rape children too?

[–] djsoren19@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 3 days ago

Biden's White House had the Epstein files and could have released them at any time.

Idk if they rape children, but it sure seems they hid the information and avoided the prosecution of dozens to hundreds of people who definitely raped children.

[–] Karjalan@lemmy.world 4 points 3 days ago

Oh man haha. My dyslexic ass initially ready that as "they're both born in the middle East" and I was like "well that certainly is a unique theory I haven't heard before"

[–] DarkFuture@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago

Because that's the only thing we should ever take into account when choosing what ideology will dictate our futures.

[–] edible_funk@sh.itjust.works -1 points 3 days ago

Y'all can't help yourselves.

[–] Honytawk@discuss.tchncs.de 0 points 3 days ago (1 children)

And one wants to execute trans people.

You don't care about them, do you?

[–] djsoren19@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 3 days ago (1 children)

members of both parties support legislation that harms and kills trans people. or are you merely virtue-signaling for a group you don't personally understand?

Hell, I've seen liberals on this very site demanding trans people vote for a Democrat who has openly promised to restrict their healthcare or work with Repubs to keep trans people out of sports.

[–] Honytawk@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

The majority of Democrats do want rights for trans people.

While the Majority of Republicans don't.

If you care about trans, you vote Democrat. There they get the best chances to live.

And what some so-called liberals do on this site doesn't matter unless they are politicians. But I bet they were bots from .ml weren't they?
