Thank you, federation, for bringing libs to our lair once again.
They really always default to the same fucking shit “BOT! XINNIE THE POOH!” like an actual NPC 
they are so not used to dealing with people who call a spade a spade.
Their core beliefs are only supported by vagueries and insinuations, of course their racism is underhanded as well.
god they just radiate redditor energy
what posting on reddit does to a mf
I refuse to go there but are they doing the reddit shit where everyone tells the same jokes in every thread?
Yeah, their ilk tend not to have any legitimate rebuttals to well thought-out arguments, so they resort to calling people “bots” while throwing around words like “imperialism”, “genocide”, “authoritarian”, and “dictator” in various combinations. Add the passive aggressive tone and racist +100 Social Credits Winnie the Pooh Tiananmen Square Weeghur “”““jokes””“”, you got yourself a Redditor.
Sounds like a real paradise
The Postal town?
Redditors are the sentient large language models the techbros have been after.
considering how much of reddit is bots these days, this is as literal as you’d like to make it
doing the reddit shit
can confirm this happens every. damn. thread.
yeah this honestly. this comment hit me right in the feels. shut up and take my upvote!
this is gonna get buried and I’m probably gonna get downvoted for this but fuck Russia and fuck Putler.
edit: wow, this thread really blew up! RIP my inbox!
edit2: thanks for the gold kind stranger!
edit3: I’m seeing word that there’s some tankies hanging around on this thread, and I’m only going to say this once - get the fuck out. Maybe you went, I don’t know, to a LIBRARY for once in your lives and read a book on the Soviet Union that you so fervently worship, let alone the authoritarian Chinese government, you wouldn’t be such fucking douchecanoes.
edit4: holy shit somebody gave me platinum! you are epic, good sir!
edit5: who would have thought my most upvoted comment would have been on this thread!
edit6: ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) swiggity swooty
edit7: alright, I’m noping the fuck out of here! see you later everybody!
satire too good
Real 2008 “How is depicting Obama as Curious George offensive? Everybody loves Curious George.” Energy.
That was the brilliance of this too. The initial comparison was a chinese man to a yellow bear and a black man to a tiger called “Tigger”, the levels of racism we’ve come to expect from the rabid HK separatists.
The real victim in all this is Tigger, who is being compared to a war criminal.
if u aren’t one then plz at least say tigga
I am sorry for not considering the feelings of Tiger-Americans.
Say what you will about federation it’s been great for the dunk tank
really brought us back to our roots so far
there’s a spectre haunting the fediverse
we have fun here
Lmao nice to see they’re at the “Pointing out Ukrainian nazism makes you the real nazi” levels of reddit.
It’s hard to believe these types of people are real sometimes.
you are obviously pro-China
:oh-gosh:
As if they think it’s a universal insult that speaks for itself. lmao who has the echo chamber again?
mr china, your fired sir
What do you mean it's racist to call a Chinese man yellow? It's just like everyone's favorite Asian Peril character, the perfidious Yellow Claw!Remember Fu Manchu, the giant racist egg that Marvel just never quite got rid of?
deleted by creator
Marvel eventually had to stop using Fu Manchu because of copyright, so they eventually just came up with The Yellow Claw
Shang Chi’s original father before they started to use The Mandarin instead
(Which is it’s own bucket of worms, but yeah, lots of Yellow Peril in comic books)
This is excellent, is it a direct reference to something?

I think this is going to become one of my favorite emojis when talking about libs.

It’s worse than this. That lib is a Wheel of Time nerd.

They’re all old. Just push them over and run away.

it’s distilled through the lens of modern anglo bullshit so it’s not great on gender but a lot of wheel of time draws from norse mythology, including the gender-bendy parts. calling it gender essentialist is a pretty shallow read
deleted by creator
Compare Discworld, which has strongly gendered magic but is made very clear that it’s a cultural construct and anyone can learn either mode (or both, though generally not at once) if they have the right mindset and inclination.
there’s an explicitly trans male character that channels the appropriate magic. he’s considered the weird woman who channels male magic until it’s dropped that satan literally cursed him to live as a woman. it’s a very binary gender system but if you’re going to have eternal souls, it’s not an awful way to handle trans characters. there’s a lot wrong with the gender politics and Jordan sucks ass at writing women so there’s much riper targets to criticize the series over than this.
Love to have a cis man come at me about what is and isn’t gender essentialism because he perceives me as being a treat defender and therefore the target of his life’s vendetta.
Calling it a shallow read doesn’t imply anything of the sort. As others pointed out in more detail than me, there are better places to critique the books and how they handle gender. Which is the point of what I wrote.
I fucking knew when I wrote that reply I’d get an arrogant, condescending reply like this. I don’t like the vibe you’ve brought to hexbear since you’ve been here, and I will not reply further.

Hasn’t that game been in development since 2010? So the dumpy 45-year old was at one point a slightly less dumpy 30-something who presumably had some disposable income to throw at a cool kickstarter game.

Fuck that is bleak to think about
Liberals can’t help but repeat 200 year old debunked talking points like a broken record player, as if it will make sense this time
As is well known, Lassalle heard nothing of the “iron law of wages” other than the word “iron” borrowed from Goethe’s “eternal, iron, great laws”. The word brazen is a signature by which the true believers recognize themselves. But if I take the law with Lassalle’s stamp and therefore in his sense, then I must also take it with his justification. And what is she? As Lange showed shortly after Lassalle’s death: the Malthusian theory of population (preached by Lange himself). But if this is correct, then again I cannot abolish the law, even if I abolish wage labor a hundred times, because the law then governs not only the system of wage labor but every social system. Precisely based on this, the economists have been proving for fifty years and more that socialism cannot abolish natural misery, but only generalize it and spread it over the entire surface of society at the same time!
- K. Marx, 1875 (Critique of the Gotha Program - Google translated from German/mlwerke.de, I CBA to look up the quote in English)
They’re using the same arguments as 150 years ago, yes.
It’s incredible how Marx was already dunking on the same arguments we see TODAY, everywhere.
Somewhere in Grundrisse, he criticizes an American economist that argues that the state is wheighing down the american economy and that it should be abolished for the market to be free. The quotes felt like someone slipped reddit comments into the pages.
(Btw, Marx explains that the American state is itself the result of the self organization of free market forces, unlike in European countries, in which captalists had to deal with the feudal institutions that preceded them, so the american’s argument made zero sense then and still makes zero sense now)
My favorite is users being banned for 1984 years.
It’s really like time has stopped for these people and they are no longer capable of comprehending new information
