I'm glad no one you cared about died because they got suckered into following a cult. I'm glad you don't have to wonder if they'll get hurt because they've been brainwashed. I'm glad you don't have to wonder who fed them such poisonous lies, and fight to try and cure it.

Cool. Very noble and high minded, aren’t you?.

People like you are the reason the US is where it is.

[–] AcidiclyBasicGlitch@sh.itjust.works -3 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

Yes... too many people with empathy and beliefs rooted in complex first hand experience. That's why the U.S. is where it is...

Definitely nothing to do with people jumping to conclusion driven by black and white thinking

Cool. You live in your grey area where Nazis have some good qualities and maybe you can reach them if you overlook the fact that they’re absolute garbage. That’s definitely stopped fascists before.

Don't you know that the US and Canada are twins? Don't you see that your country is going the exact same way ours is? Those are your friends and family who are reading the same trash, maybe wedging its way into the same cracks in their logic that killed someone I loved.

If it hasn't happened, it will. And I hope when it does, you try to save them too.

Yes, I know that your inaction is likely to make this our problem eventually too.

And when it does, any “friends and family” espousing that garbage gets cut off AT BEST. If they’re fortunate, they’ll get to keep all their teeth. And if they decide that conspiracy theories are more attractive than, you know, staying alive, good riddance.

Looking through your comment history, you seem to make a career out of blaming and mocking victims. I have to wonder who hurt you so badly that you spend all day hurting other people. How does using your trauma like it's a keyboard assault weapon help your cause?

[–] edible_funk@lemmy.world 2 points 6 hours ago

MAGA aren't victims. They're the perpetrators. Fuck's sake, these ignorant bigots have agency.

[–] WizardofFrobozz@lemmy.ca 1 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

“Victims.”

You’re confusing laziness and complacency with helplessness.

Who hurt you? lol

[–] AdolfSchmitler@lemmy.world -3 points 14 hours ago (2 children)

Pretty fucked up your making fun of someone who lost a loved one. Completely ignorant to think something like that couldn't happen to you, unless you don't have loved ones, dick.

[–] edible_funk@lemmy.world 4 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

When maga stop wanting me dead I'll start caring when they die.

I’m not making fun of anyone, I’m criticizing someone. For the things they’re saying.

Does experiencing grief (even for science-denying fascist enablers) equal immunity from criticism where you’re from?
