  • This is like explaining the world to children who can only think of things only in terms of “good guys” and “bad guys”.

    It’s possible that Hamas (who murders children) might not be the noble freedom fighters the social media algorithms have made you believe. It’s possible that Palestinians have some issues with bad leaders just as Israel does. It may even be possible that none of the countries in the Middle East have good leaders.

    You may even want to consider the possibility that there are good people throughout the Middle East, the problem is it’s just shitty people that are in power. The reasons for this involve religion, history, grievances because of past conflicts, high concentration of wealth in the hand a a few people, corruption, etc.

    If your goal is peace, shit’s complicated there.

    Spreading hatred and encouraging more conflict is simple. For those of us that want peace, it’s complicated.





  • Harrassment and intimidation is the point. You won’t target the Kraft guy because that would require real effort. The point is to target people like Ed Sheeran because he’s smaller that the Kraft dude.

    You’re the Karen screaming at the cashier instead of just taking your business elsewhere. You just want to get attention. Quietly boycotting Kraft isn’t attention grabbing, so you won’t do that.

    This is bully behaviour. You’re not trying to change anything you just attack targets for the sake of your emotions.

    Apparently today you’re going after Pink for some reason, huh? Damn I haven’t heard of Pink in quite a long time. Who’s next on the list? Hootie and the Blowfish? LOL

    What a joke of a “movement”.



  • Pretending atheism isn’t a religion is also lying at everyone’s expense. You do this because if you every for a second considered atheism to be a religion, you’d realize it’s a religion pretty much entirely devoted towards being bigoted towards other religions.

    What are you trying to accomplish with your comment about religion being evil. Oh yeah, it’s your core belief isn’t it?


  • How do you define “religion”?

    A group of people that have shared beliefs that form a group (like this community) so they can feel good about practicing their beliefs together. Your beliefs center around religion being evil, and you ritualistically post memes and articles to your group to reinforce and celebrate that belief.

    You also believe that you aren’t in a religion, which is kinda funny. All religions have their paradoxical beliefs I suppose.











  • I know what fascism means, but I’m pretty sure you don’t.

    It’s when a movement has no real ideology and is about gaining power through deception, manipulation, and intimidation. The emotional pressure points are usually about racism, paranoia, xenophobia, and nostalgia for past golden age (which likely never existed).

    You’ve gone for the classic paranoia over Jews thing, pretty on the nose if you ask me. You likely have some weird nostalgia over the Soviet Union, which likely never existed in your lifetime, and you’ve likely never even met anyone that lived in that country. But you likely have been made to believe it was a past golden age.

    You probably believe countries are somehow being manipulated by the Jews, that’s the paranoia and xenophobia kicking in. You hate global order.

    You likely latch on to the words of demagogues like Hasan Piker.

    There’s no real ideology in your movement. There’s words about socialism spoken by millionaires that are promoted by billionaires. But deception and lies are a big part of fascism. You might support theocratic and fascist regimes elsewhere in the world, like Iran, or Hamas. You might even support Russia a fascist state.

    Even if you don’t personally believe these things, a lot of people in your movement do. Your movement engages targeted harrassment and intimidation campaigns, so you know what will happen to you if you step out of line.

    Let me ask you this, if your movement tells you to vote Republican, would you do it? What if Tucker Carlson was running and promised to “stop the genocide”? Would you align with those people if the rest of your peer group went in that direction?


  • Yeah sure Robert Kraft is a shitty person. Whatever.

    But this is tactic your whole movement is based on isn’t it? Believing your shitty actions are justified so long as you can point out something else that’s shitty.

    The existence of shitty people in the world does not absolve you of your shitty actions. Robert Kraft is responsible for his actions and you are responsible for your actions.

    You are responsible for what you do, and you’re currently in a harassment campaign against someone that wants to be apolitical and just play music.

    Your goal should be to be a better person that the people you think are evil, not justify your evil acts with their evil acts. I’m sure Robert Kraft is doing what he’s doing because he believes he’s in the right. So are you the same as him? Do you think it’s fine to do shitty things as long as you can say “because these other guys are bad too”?


  • So you think fascists don’t use social pressure as a tool?

    So there’s no one in MAGA that goes along with whatever the people in their Church group is saying? You think Trump got abortion banned for personal religious reasons?

    Sorry to be the one to tell you this, but a fascist movement depends on social pressure. MAGA has an alliance with Christian groups so they can apply that pressure. Trump is the most unchristian president in my lifetime, but Christians look the other way on his many many many sins because they are pressured to do so.

    Leftists have a similar relationship going on. Iran is a theocratic authoritarian state, but you have to go along with whatever propaganda the throw your way because of social pressure. So much for religion being the opiate of the masses when Marxists are supporting religious theocracy. You may claim you have an ideology, but really it’s all about going along to get along.

    And this makes you susceptible to propaganda. You may not actually care about Ed Sheeran or what he thinks about geopolitics. But you’re required to act like you care and post comments about Ed Sheeran being a terrible guy because of that social pressure.

    Fascism can’t function without making people feel like they are alone and having no choice but to conform to the social pressures. That is the goal of your movement isn’t it? You have to label me as a troll, some have even tagged me with the star of David (yeah that’s not a fascist thing at all, LOL) because your little movement doesn’t hold up against dissenting opinions. And that’s what I’m doing isn’t it? Telling people that’s ok to have a different opinion, it’s ok to think it’s really shitty to be harrassing a musician for being apolitical.

    Right now your movement is engaged in a harassment campaign against someone that makes pretty innocent music. That’s the dumbest thing ever, doesn’t help any Palestinians at all, it’s obviously just about making your hate group feel like they’re strong. And it’s dumb as fuck. But as we can see with Trump, even dumb people can be dangerous.

    I’m against fascism while you’re just choosing a different flavour of fascism.
