I'll be goddamned if every cocksucker hoppin out a pickup covered in shit opinions doesn't have that terrible beard. Absolutely shocked to see the uniform on this muppet

You gotta stop targeting these people for their appearance. It doesn't bother them, and it only ends up hurting regular people that share similar body features.

Pick something else to bully them about, like them being a fucking Nazi

[–] Crikeste@lemm.ee 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

You do your part, they’ll do theirs. There’s nothing wrong with bullying Nazis, but if it makes you feel icky then don’t. Tolerance isn’t going to do shit when you’re being shipped off to El Salvador. And whatever feeling may be hurt in the process, I think those people have a lot more to worry about then what their allies exclaim at Nazis.

EVERYBODY PLAYS A PART.

Tolerant societies can't afford to tolerate the intolerant.

[–] Crikeste@lemm.ee 1 points 1 day ago

The paradox of tolerance. Not to say that it’s flawed, I just think it’s an interesting ‘dilemma’ or thought provocation.

Nah fuck their scraggly ass posing

[–] Cethin@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 day ago

Maybe, but let's not pretend all bearded people are like that. Mine is similar, though more trimmed and maintained, though I'm a leftist and don't drive a pickup. I also have longer hair (approximately shoulder length right now), which they're probably against.

Can we not make beards a right wing thing? I love my beard.

[–] Tigeroovy@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 day ago

I love my beard too, but I’m just never gonna get anywhere near that duck dynasty ass length. Frankly I just don’t even have the patience to let it grow that long let alone think it would look good on me.

[–] motor_spirit@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

You guys need to hold a summit and sort through the baggage. I can't grow anything respectable so I stay in my lane, but I have taken notice of the beard distribution and there's cause for concern

[–] clay_pidgin@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 day ago

"Our beard", comrade!

[–] xor@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 2 days ago (3 children)

it’s just A beard, not “that beard”.
it’s just what happens to some men’s faces when they don’t shave and has nothing to do with political beliefs….

[–] wildbus8979@sh.itjust.works 11 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (2 children)

Yeah that's not true though. What happens when you don't maintain a beard is this:

There's a very specific styling that you see lot with right wingers. Something that's closer to this

Or this slightly less groomed variant

[–] xor@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 2 days ago (2 children)

it’s the really short or shaved hair with a super long beard that makes it weird…

[–] recklessengagement@lemmy.world -2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

judging the content of someone's character by whether they can grow hair in the right places?

kinda fucked ngl

[–] xor@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 day ago

i agree, although i did nothing like that and nobody here did…

[–] wildbus8979@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 days ago

That as well, but saying it's just unkept beard is certainly not true.

[–] Forester@pawb.social 3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I'm not a fashion guru. Is the classic Socrates beard still allowed?

[–] wildbus8979@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)
[–] Forester@pawb.social 3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

So what you're saying is I need to go full diogenes and get a barrel?

[–] xor@lemmy.dbzer0.com 0 points 2 days ago

this is the way

[–] dumbass@leminal.space 3 points 2 days ago

It's a finely manicured beard that they've painstakingly kept trimmed to be the perfect size, shape and density, gotta look perfect when you're committing domestic terrorism.

[–] StJohnMcCrae@slrpnk.net 4 points 2 days ago (1 children)

It's not a fedora it's a trilby.

[–] xor@lemmy.dbzer0.com -4 points 2 days ago (1 children)

still basing your personality off hating a specific hat that hasn’t been popular for 20 years?

[–] StJohnMcCrae@slrpnk.net 4 points 2 days ago (1 children)
[–] xor@lemmy.dbzer0.com -2 points 2 days ago

trolls always like to imagine themselves like that….
but no, i don’t care what kind of hat you’re basing your personality off of.
