Those people are out there being racist and xenophobic. They might be dumb, but they’re pieces of shit. Fuck them.
Hard disagree. I’ve constantly chided my coworker for consuming this shit, and his insisting that I do the same. My argument is that there’s plenty of shit wrong in our country. Spending time figuring out how fucked up the fringe right is, is wasted effort. But then again, I have zero commute, so my time to dedicate to pods is limited.
And that’s the rub of my rec. If you have family members that are RWNJs who you ever hope to attempt to change (which they probably won’t) you need to know at least some of the current underbelly of thought and where it comes from. But I also enjoy Knowledge Fight just to hear them shit on Alex Jones. It’s light listening for like, mowing the lawn.
For real, if you posted ivermectin paste recipes as mayo substitutes in those FB groups those people would do it. They’d make coleslaw out of that shit and eat it.
So… I have a good friend who is a dumb an anti-vax. I’ve been trying to convince him and showing him sick people unvaxed as well as how it benefits you to be and he still won’t do it. Any tips to convince him?
A highly underrated component of the pandemic is the right wingers who missed the memo that is was about the grift and not being a true believer, then caught it and died.
Guys, I’m not sure but I don’t think these prayer warriors are helping when people catch the covid bad.
I’m not sure they understand how prayer works in the first place. Oh hey, God it’s me, the inconsiderate racist from Florida who posts memes on Facebook all day. My friend Jim is sick, you know, the one who who hates Hispanics and immigrants from other countries? Yeah, he’s sick, please hear my prayers. Thanks, God!
Crazy. It’s almost like God gave them a way for their friend or loved one to not get sick and a template on how to be a good person but they choose to only use religion as a miracle cure all and a reason to shit on brown people and women
That’s why I only gear up for prayer battles when it comes to things like school shootings where I know my Ts & Ps are really being put to good use.
Reddit has banned names/pictures in r/HCA, effectively killing the subreddit. Top comment on the news: "These rules exist because some people are more offended by people acknowledging reality than they are by people lying and misinforming people causing them to die."
Weren't all the names never fully printed/censored? Reddit can eat my ass, they've been doing shit like this in the past few years in the sake of "fairness" it seems.
their founder is a libertarian fucker who feels that every idea should have an equal weight. That's how he explained away all the qanon/trump garbage for years. But he moved on this quickly
old habits die hard especially when you don’t realize the harm they cause. I’m embarrassed to say I sometimes fall into bad habits.
