I mean… unironicly, is this where horseshoe theory comes from?

[-] PugJesus@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago

Other way around - stethoscope theory was made in response to horseshoe theory.

That's gotta be a prank, right? Right??

I’m going to choose to believe that, my brain refuses to compute this as real without an aneurysm

Too articulated to be real. If this were written like a Trump tweet* it would be more realistic. *more: SAD! ALL CAPS! misspelings and run on rambling

idk, tankies are generally pretty capable of being verbose. I wouldn't count it out.

For real, every time they post something it feels like they're trying to hit a word count for a paper they are over-due for.

It's like they pull up ChatCCP at 11:38pm the night it's due and tell it to write them a 2000-word essay about "how the didactic materialism of imperial hegemony irrevocably leads to bourgeois exploitation of the Global South".

Sherman? We have a task for you.

I blame this on Ulysses Grant. As a general and then as a president, Grant should have spat on Lee's face and decimated the south, not gone easy on them. The South and anyone with this poster's views should have been stamped out and executed

The Northern bankers

Why do I get the feeling he's using bankers to stand in for a different group...

This is surprisingly funny for satire, which I hope it is.

[-] PugJesus@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

One hopes, but the depths of mankind's stupidity never ceases to amaze...

I remind you that InfraHaz and his schtick exist. At least TheYankeeTankie is now an unironic fash.

Dunking on Tankies from a leftist perspective.

A tankie is someone who defends/supports authoritarian or even totalitarian regimes who call themselves "socialist". The term originated from people supporting the 1956 invasion of Hungary by the Soviet Union. Nowadays they are just terminally online, denying genocides, and falling for totalitarian propaganda and calling such regimes "true democracies". remember to censor usernames when necessary.
