it’s doing its fucking best okay damb

on occasion one logs into the internet only to be confronted with the darnedest things said with such confidence

i’m eagerly awaiting 🫨😧😧

Waiting until the last minute to link the post you were referencing (which, to be fair, most people didn’t need me to explain) was a bit confusing, so I’ll admit that felt like bad form. But no hard feelings.

It seems like we’re on the same page about most things, and I agree with all the points you listed.

I’ll also apologize for the immediate defensiveness—people on this site can be really mean, and shove words into my mouth without evidence, and after a while, it starts to get to you. You are one in a million for actually having a source for your opinion on me (which I just wish you had linked earlier 😛).

restarting this thread just to say you are misreading, i hope not intentionally, an older post of mine. i do not believe this. see here for clarification: https://lemmy.cafe/comment/8372851

that’s the importance of countermessaging. harris and walz had it right for 0.0076ms with their “weird” direction, like “look how fucking weird jd vance is for wanting to do genital inspections on every kid in order to make life harder for like 40 kids nationwide, what a freak!?!” and even some conservatives were like “yeah that’s a little far we don’t need to be doing all that.” that was a really successful strategy that had great potential.

…and then they dropped that like a month before the election in favor of courting suburban conservatives. from “weird” to “follow the law.”

and at least two blue hats

• seth moulton
• tom suozzi

literally sick to my stomach.

normie ❌: being anti nazi and anti confederacy because they are evil murderers

based ✅: being anti nazi and anti confederacy because they suck at winning

joseph robinette biden

and yet we still find the time to accuse a miniscule proportion of Arab-Americans struggling through trauma most of us can’t imagine instead of literally the men doing the violence

thanks for being sane tho :)

so close! it was actually

• harris
• trump
• and some third parties

on the top of the ballot. this post is to cause division and make you angry, nothing more. nothing is as simple as this bullshit oversimplification and i’m sick of this narrative of attacking a provably insignificant minority instead of attacking the individuals who are still fucking giving unquestioning aid to an apartheid and genocide state

i’m sorry that you misunderstood my post. i’m blocking you because i don’t like to be told how to hang out and talk about topics when plenty of others got it without having to tell me how smug i am for correcting terminology errors.

me: in other words, america could be totally healthy eating the exact same food

you: I don’t think we could eat the exact same diet

notice the key difference in language. makes 100% of the difference. i choose my words with care.

that’s the difference between primary and secondary causes, individual cases and epidemics.

while you may be able to imagine an instance where food quality is a primary factor in an individual’s wellbeing doesn’t challenge the empirical evidence that overall the epidemic affecting massive swaths of people is borne primarily out of a context of low income, low education and urbanization.

(NB: This is rhetorical. I don’t believe it.)

Glad you said this because there’s literally someone else in this very comment section arguing exactly this. Sick to my stomach.

yup you got it :)

I think one of the cool things about the fediverse is that we’re all getting together and saying no thank you to corporate advertising and mass manipulation.

So maybe reconsider? next time you think about posting an egregious example of a celeb advertisement, OP
