Folks who voted for Trump are gullible and fundamentally untrustworthy. They forever carry a virus embedded in their brains, a parasite.

No. Thanks.

We're just dropping slurs for no reason now, huh? What if we didn't do that?

[–] meekah@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 1 hour ago

Tbh I'm a bit confused what exactly you're referring to

[–] holymachinery91@lemmy.world 2 points 1 hour ago

Fr. I never trust a "leftist" who throws slurs around like this.

[–] ZombiFrancis@sh.itjust.works 14 points 5 hours ago

You don't have to trust them. But if you do policy that's in their actual material interest, they'll vote for you.

So voters? Sure. Politicians? Hard pass.

Like if Margorie Taylor Greene up and says she's a leftist now, then no. I'd call the easiest bullshit on that one.

But some chud who is convinced to vote for a progressive or even socialist candidate because they want healthcare? Deal.

The way this is worded sounds like Mike is saying he would accept MAGA "defectors" and wants to call out those who disagree. 🤨

[–] A_Random_Idiot@lemmy.world 8 points 4 hours ago* (last edited 4 hours ago) (1 children)

really? It feels the exact opposite.

That he would fight anyone saying they should accept former MAGAts.

Interesting how it can be taken either way. Wonder what the true meaning was.

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 2 points 3 hours ago

If there's maybe earlier context, like a previous argument where he's clearly stating his position, it would help.

[–] Jehovah@lemmy.world 0 points 4 hours ago* (last edited 4 hours ago)

I fixed it. Thank you for clarifying.

[–] Jehovah@lemmy.world -2 points 5 hours ago

Fuck me. Maybe I'm retarded?!

[–] coalie@piefed.zip 119 points 9 hours ago (3 children)

So glad ddiiggss' reply was there. That was crucial to this conversation.

[–] snooggums@piefed.world 27 points 8 hours ago (2 children)

How else could we possibly know that it was funny?

[–] Asafum@lemmy.world 16 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

The way we always do nowadays!

[–] 5wim@infosec.pub 5 points 1 hour ago

Saddam's body

[–] coalie@piefed.zip 7 points 7 hours ago

IKR, I would have had no idea otherwise. I am still trying to figure out how to laugh at it.

They can get in the tent and vote D in the general all day...

The problem was neoliberals tried to court hypothetically cross over voters at the expense of the Dem voting base. That's fucking stupid and a problem. One that the voting members of the DNC rectified a year ago.

But if someone voted trump in the last three general elections and want to vote D in the next, why would anyone talk them out of it?

Let em fucking do it. Just don't listen to them when they try to guide the party.

he seems like the kinda guy who would unironically drop a "reddit… assemble!"

[–] AzuranAurora@piefed.ca 6 points 7 hours ago

Wtf??? Cringe! Downvote army, assemble!

[–] Okokimup@lemmy.world 23 points 8 hours ago (2 children)

I'm confused. Is the goal ideological purity or helpful results?

[–] fodor@lemmy.zip 6 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

The goal is for people to recognize what has happened in recent history and stop repeating it.

Corporate Democrats and big corporations will continue to say that the left should reach out to the center and steal those votes. They'll say that because they hate leftist policies and not because they think the strategy would actually work. But lots of people listen to them.

I believe that if Bernie had been the candidate in 2016, he would have won. I believe that there are enough American voters who actually want leftist policies out there and that a leftist candidate can win the White House. But I know that it's hard to get people to try. And that explains the predictable losses in 2016 and 2024.

[–] JackbyDev@programming.dev 1 points 1 hour ago

I'm not sure what the context of their discussion is but I interpreted it as being sympathetic to people who realize they were duped by conservatives. But there's a big difference between whether we should accept former maga voters and whether we should compromise with fascist politicians.

[–] kata1yst@sh.itjust.works 20 points 8 hours ago (4 children)

Helpful results? In MY leftist politics? Nah, the goal here appears to be to win Internet points.

I have no idea who either of these people are, but both of them make me immediately want to never see their names attached to anything ever again.

Thanks for the heads up, OP.

Does anyone have more information about the odd sandwich with cilantro coating the outside of the sandwich but not actually in the sandwich? It almost looks like a dessert sandwich except for the cilantro part...

[–] phailhaus@piefed.social 6 points 6 hours ago

Looks like the filling is nothing but thick-cut slabs of onion.

Those pictures need to be links to either a recipe or an order page.

[–] Agrivar@lemmy.world 4 points 7 hours ago

That's glorious!

Bookmarked.

[–] Zorque@lemmy.world 1 points 5 hours ago

A better looking pile of shit is still a pile of shit.

[–] otter@lemmy.ca 2 points 6 hours ago

So many new community icons for !SandwichPosting@sh.itjust.works

[–] slothrop@lemmy.ca 2 points 8 hours ago

hmmm....gyro on a pita....

[–] Semi_Hemi_Demigod@lemmy.world 22 points 9 hours ago

That lady who got all over social media who voted for Trump three times and admitted that Trump was an idiot and she was an idiot for voting for him?

That’s sufficient.

[–] abbotsbury@lemmy.world 14 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

none of those people come out of that interaction looking good tbh

[–] cnk@sharkey.world 5 points 7 hours ago

Yeah it feels to me that both are searching for a "aha gotcha" kind of online win so they can then turn to their respective followers and say "see? See how they are?". Neither is productive and both are examples of a kind of micro-clout chasing behavior that reduces the very real discussions about very real politics to being "gotcha's" etc.

[–] Agrivar@lemmy.world 6 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

...I hope Mike Brock is your hero for setting himself for such an epic self-own.

[–] Jehovah@lemmy.world 2 points 8 hours ago

Indeed, lol.

Mike Brock set himself on fire in protest.

[–] Eat_Your_Paisley@lemmy.world 2 points 8 hours ago

The party can accept them, I won’t
