So you think the only groups are left/socialist and right/conservative?

I think I found the underlying issue, you’re just a fucking idiot.

Ah but OP didn’t specify conservatives at all, YOU did that. So where’s the strawman?

You’re the one claiming it’s a strawman; ignoring the fact that’s not using the fallacy correctly, the burden of proof lies with you. And, no, “their profile pic contains colorful flags that make me uncomfortable” doesn’t count as proof.

If it was always going to happen, now isn’t really a bad time. Sure, a month ago would have been better, but people still haven’t been here that long. If I wind up needing to migrate, and lose my current account, oh well. No big loss. I imagine others feel similar.

The difference is, it’s often a news story when it happens in the US.

In Russia, it’s a Tuesday.

You’re asking the wrong question. What you should ask is “What are the chances this is fake?”

Less than a day between “conservatives arent all bad guys, stop being so mean” to literally defending Nazi’s.

Yea bud, I’ll just go ahead and use you as an example of exactly why people feel the way they do in this thread.

Being conservative = tangentially supporting GOP policies

My favorite thing is when a conservative finds themselves outside of one their safe-space, echo chambers and are shocked to discover that not only do regular people not agree with them, but they find their views so abhorrent that they actively view all conservatives as complete pieces of shit. And they are not wrong to do so.

I’m not sure I’ve ever actually seen a real Ben Shapiro tweet. All I ever see are obvious fake ones like this. Like, there is a ton to make fun of Ben Shapiro for, but shit like this is just so low-effort it’s childish.

This is the same flavor of shit as the Babylon Bee. It’s “satire” but done in a way that there’s no real joke. It’s just “Hey look at what a piece of shit this person is! Here’s a made up scenario where they act like a piece of shit!” And then idiots who believe everything they see online fail to notice that it’s made up and take it as fact.

That’s the Krampus. He’s in a lot of Central and Eastern European folklore as kind of the opposite of Santa. While Santa goes around giving gifts to nice children, the Krampus steals naughty children away and beats them with birch rods.

Ah, the holidays.

So why did it need to be changed?

My tolerance is high enough that it doesn’t impair me, it just helps me relax and keep my anxiety in check. I can and do take tolerance breaks every once and a while, so I absolutely could stop. I do also acknowledge that I’m addicted but everyone needs their own way to cope with the world and there’s much worse vice’s out there.

You mean cover only the top layer so that everytime you run by it makes the nearby cave noise? You got it boss!
