You’re projecting.
You’re projecting.
Every accusation is an admission.
Can’t you just imagine all those Libertarians sitting around in their nightly circle jerk talking about this? “I really showed those guys!” “You sure did!” <fap><fap<fap> “I sent them packing with the First Ammendment!” “You sure did!” <fap><fap><fap> “They were so embarasses!” “So embarassed!” <fap><fap><fap> “Then I decided to take the posts down on my own, not because they showed up!” “On your own!” <fap><fap><fap>
It sounds to me as though those two guys from the FBI delivered their message loud and clear. Doesn’t it sound like that to you, too?
Trump is a useful idiot. The real threat to democracy is the Heritage Society, Project 2025, and the christofascists using Trump to gain power. They telegraphed their intentions when they said that the democrats were only electing Biden and Harris so they could kill off Biden and install Harris. I guarantee that their plan is to get Trump elected, kill him and Vance, and install the christofascist speaker of the house president.
Did you know that vegans are hated on par with drug addicts?
Oh take the back of your hand off your forehead. That’s just fucking ridiculous. You know you’re not purple, right? You don’t glow in the dark? How the fuck could anyone know that you were a vegan other than you telling literally everyone you speak to that you are? It’s like that fucking cross-fit and spin crowd. Literally no one would care if there weren’t extremists out there harassing restauranteurs and butchers to try to bully them into not serving meat. If vegan extremists didn’t lecture, harangue, and shame anyone who eats meat then no one would care. If you’re hated it’s because of your behaviour and how you treat people, not because you choose not to eat meat.
Perhaps. Did you know that people who consume a plant-based diet for their health or for the environment are hated much less than people who are vegan because of concerns about animal welfare?
No one cares what you eat or why. They only care how you act and how you treat other people. Have you tried being nicer to people?
I think that’s interesting. People feel judged by the mere existence of ethical vegans. And I think you are demonstrating how those feelings of being judged are expressed as defensiveness and “hatred” (though I know that language seems strong in this context).
It has nothing to do with ethical veganism and everything to do with harassing, intimidating, bullying, shaming, insulting, labeling, haranguing, etc. people to try to get your way.
It is how you act, not what you eat.
I just translated it to non-shitheal.
It’s likewhen Trump says, “If I can be prosecuted for paying hush money to a porn star that I fucked while my wife was at home caring for my newborn son then lying about it and falsifying business records to cover it up to interfere in an election then it can happen to anyone who pays hush money to a porn star that they fucked while their wife was at home caring for their newborn son then lying about it and falsifying business records to cover it up to interfere in an election.”
I just can’t see myself ever being in that position.
The rep also said it is a “threat to hate speech when people can mass report a page and get someone banned–because they broke the rules. Today, the opponents of hate speech are targeting Candace, but anyone who spreads hate speech could be next.”
Sounds about right to me.
Does anyone here remeber when, “free speech” and “Conservative speech” didn’t mean hate speech, racism, lies, misinformation and Russian anti-American propaganda?
I think it’s an expression of ego. They are absolutely convinced of their moroal superiority and are frustrated by the fact that they haven’t been able to insult, harass, bully, shame, and threathen everyone into joining their quasi-religion so they’re going to prove to themselves that they are right by keeping a captive carnivore and forcing it to eat a vegan diet. They justify this by self-absolving. Self-absolution is one of the hallmarks of extremists. Anything they do, even when it goes against their own beliefs, is ok because they are morally pure.
It’s an. ML account. I know what it is but thanks for the warning.
“I like Trump because he says he will hurt the people I’ve never met but hate irrationally.”
I didn’t criticize them for not taking the community private. I simply pointed out that they could completely seal the echo bunker by taking the community private. I also pointed out that they could keep vegetarian pets and feed them a vegan diet without anyone criticising them for trying to feed a vegan diet to a carnivore.
They could make the community private. They could keep rabbits as pets. They have made veganism their entire identity, a pseude-religion, and they have a pathological need for validation. Anyone who questions their absolute moral superiority challenges that identity so they seal themselves up in a hermetically sealed, idea tight echo bunker where only supportive ideas are allowed and only validating up votes are tolerated.
They, of course, feel quite free to spread their extremism to discussions outside of the echo bunker, they just don’t tolerate other ideas in the echo bunker.
So much of the media is owned by wealthy right wingers. What is in it for her to sit down wth them? I mean, Trump doesn’t talk to anyone outside of the far to extreme right. There isn’t any far to extreme left media for her to talk to…
I was at Defcon a few years ago in Las Vegas while the roller derby girls were in town. Fun times.
