    Nobody has presented anything other than calling me a bot. The .ml instance is corrupted by something that stinks. I think most other instances rightly call it out for this. It’s clear just from the tone and rhetoric when the instance is a .ml just like when dealing with a trump supporter.

      This is clearly a leftist meme advocating people read Marx, and you’re here acting like communists are right-wingers. It’s bad-faith, and is what is getting you called out.

        Yea? Give it time. This will be the next hill. Use the fringe left and far right to burn the constitution so trump can get whatever he wants even another term.

          If the fringe left is really “fringe,” then even if we wanted to do whatever it is your conspiracy theory thinks leftists want to do, then we don’t have the power or influence to do so. The left wants revolution, the right wants to maintain the status quo. The constitution already isn’t stopping Trump from doing what he wants, it isn’t a magic document.

          Why don’t you decide to productively engage with leftists, rather than just insult us with conspiracy theories?

            Because I’m done with leftist bullshit. I can’t watch them continuing to shit the bed and not realizing they’re the problem.

            You’re right they don’t have power or influence. But that isn’t the fault of the right. It’s the choices and actions of everyone on the left. The left need to wake up and see how potentially they direction was influenced by powerful people who herded them towards actions and ideas that were toxic pills

              Leftists have heard your conspiracy theories, the ones you’ve failed to materialize any evidence for, and rejected it. Right-wingers such as yourself would do well by reading leftist theory and engaging with the ideas that have existed for hundreds of years, growing and expanding over time, rather than just assuming this is a new thing where the far-right is telling people to read Marx. You’re incoherent and insulting towards those to your left without base.

                No. I want the left to be united and successful. But I’m done with how oblivious so many of you are to how ineffective and useless you all are. I’m tired of watching so many opportunities go by year after year while you all waste it by trying to be the next PETA. I’m blaming the left for the reason the right have succeeded. The left have made themselves so aggressive and abrasive to the general public that it’s alienated then further and further from pop culture. I’ve watched the left to form a dominant position to the weakest and it was from our own actions. I’m done fucking sugar coating it. The left is cooked until they wake up

                  Probably shouldn’t accuse everyone who disagrees with you of being a shill then. Especially if you’re going to cry and moan when you get it back at you in return.

                  The left have made themselves so aggressive and abrasive

                  You mean like coming in and accusing everyone of being secret right wingers?

                  I’ve watched the left to form a dominant position to the weakest

                  What? Are you hundred years old? No you fucking didn’t.

                    The left dominated media and culture as a result of that. They had Hollywood and literature. Science wasn’t some taboo subject. The left dominated the Internet. They were early adopters of technology and creators of many things. Right wing people really were getting phased out. It wasn’t acceptable to publicly be a racist or even sexist or want to end social programs or destroy democracy.

                    Then the left turned. They started succeeding these areas and allowing the right to control the space. I watched every comment section get filled with Lefty’s telling others to not roll with pigs and just let the right spew their bullshit. I watched Lefty’s take massive momentum and channel it into a public street so that momentum could get their shit kicked in by police. I watched people take over cities and end up arguing if they should click or clap what consensus really involved rather than getting shit done. I watched as climate conscious people told others to deflate tires of random people going to work and then wonder why their cause is alienated from the general public. I’ve watched the left turn into hostile, toxic, uninformed, ineffective luddites.

                    The right took over and used basic common sense Media and public relations concepts to become more and more palatable while the left lost it all. And they still don’t realize this. Forming a mob and blocking traffic or yelling at people at cafes or burning small business is not a good look especially when the goal is not clear. We all know there’s agent provocateurs amongst these protests. Has anyone thought about countering or exposing them before organizing this stuff? No right, they just show up and go to town then act surprised every time. It’s nuts.

                    Remember that feeling when Democrats showed up with those cardboard signs. When you saw that were you like “aww they’re trying their best maybe next time guys” or were you like “I’m fucking done with these people”

                    Because that’s where I am with much of the left. Until the left wakes up, we’re getting what we deserve for becoming complacent and ineffective.
