They want you to stop telling shit people they're shit people.

They don't like being shunned socially for being Nazis.

[–] Duamerthrax@lemmy.world 34 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Yeah, this is just a different version of that meme Musk likes.

[–] Honytawk@feddit.nl 7 points 1 week ago (1 children)

It is such a stupid meme.

Sure, the conservative right attempt a failed coup every 4 years! They never moved once! /s

[–] Duamerthrax@lemmy.world 2 points 6 days ago

I mean, in a way, they never did move. They've always hated worker's right, queer rights, women's rights, minority rights, education...

"I wouldn't be so racist if it weren't for all the people criticizing me for being racist!"

OP apparently? What a weird argument to make buddy.

[–] chaitae3@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

That's not what the comic says, it implies that reprimanding someone for a thing they believe a little bit (as indicated by the small fraction of the pie chart) will make the formerly little thing they believe take more space in their believe system. I think that is often true, as calling out the little thing will make them think about it more and make it a bigger part of how they identify and dissociate from others. They will also dislike being reprimanded and will dislike the person doing it and everything they say from then on.

It's often smarter to focus on how you agree on most things and to reflect about how that small thing is a part of the other person's edifice of ideas but not yours and how that might have happened.

[–] Honytawk@feddit.nl 14 points 1 week ago

No it is exactly what the comic is saying.

Racist believe in being superior because of external characteristics. So if they believe in it even a little bit, reprimanding them would make them a bigger racist.

The comic is dumb. It feels like a fascist dogwhistle saying that fascism is also a valid viewpoint.

OP isnt the author of these comics btw

[–] njm1314@lemmy.world 15 points 1 week ago

Wasn't confused about that but thanks for checking in.

If ‘///‘ stands for “bigotry”, then yeah I’m sure not calling people out on their shitty views will make them go away…

[–] WizardofFrobozz@lemmy.ca 20 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

That’s why you don’t “tell them,” you make an example of them.

Make Nazis afraid again.

[–] Diurnambule@jlai.lu 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Or you mock them hard for having medieval beliefs.

[–] WizardofFrobozz@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Nah, they’re used to mocking. They’re not used to being punched in the mouth.

[–] Diurnambule@jlai.lu 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

You don't mock hard enoigh I guess. The trouble with punching them is the police is on their side. You will do it once and never be able to do it again.

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

“We’re scared of the police so we won’t do a goddamn thing.”

I thought you were Americans? Isn’t standing up for your rights against great odds kind of the whole thing you’ve been annoyingly waving your flags about for a century or so? Christ.

[–] Diurnambule@jlai.lu 2 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (2 children)

I am not American Buddy. You look like your trying to make them revolt. Are you paid for this or is this a see the world burn situation ? In Europe they strike really really hard against ecologists. But the point stand, I don't want my child to be abused in foster care system because I punched a Nazi. Only people with no familly and nothing to lose can do what you ask. And asking online won't do a thing, why are you arguing here instead of acting and planning sabotage if you are so better ?

[–] aphonefriend@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Pretty sure they are a paid instigator. Had him flagged as well. Everytime I see the name, its inciting violence.

[–] Diurnambule@jlai.lu 2 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Look like it. After arguing a little he lose cohérence and start spitting non sense. May be he is training to a paid troll and failing.

[–] WizardofFrobozz@lemmy.ca -1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

You’re not American? Then what the fuck are you doing giving them cover for their inaction?

Do you think this is 2002 Bush-era “business as usual” GOP shit?

Am I “trying to make them revolt”? Do to think there’s a peaceful way out of this?

I would love to live in your world where everyone who ever fought for something was a Disney character who was never at risk really at risk, had nothing to lose, and and whose victory was guaranteed.

[–] Diurnambule@jlai.lu 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I don't give cover I give a reason why some don't act.

Are you american ? Why are you so angry ?

Not wanting their child yo have their life destroyed is a really good reason. You have a fricking duty to protect your childs from immédiat harm as much as longterm harm.

I like you world where by arguing on internet you start a revolt. Easy for you nothing to risk and you can act as a white knight, I meet many people like you harassing their neighbors for not recycling enough but now where to be found when you have to protest the overlords.

[–] WizardofFrobozz@lemmy.ca -2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

No end to the shitlibs around here, I see.

[–] Diurnambule@jlai.lu 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

4 month old account, are you a paid troll ?

[–] WizardofFrobozz@lemmy.ca -1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

No, you’re right. The Americans are doing JUST GREAT. They’re handling it. They are having exactly the right amount of very cute impotent parades.

[–] Diurnambule@jlai.lu 3 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Your not making any sense.yes they a fucking them self but your reaction are illogical were you banned on Twitter and came here to spread hate ?

Or if you try to Influence people you should talk yo your trainer, you are failing to do anything except spread shit and flag yourself as a troll.

"Moderate liberals" when they're criticized for openly supporting genocide and hating minorities (they're forced to go full fascist):

I get the goal here, but some people will not listen no matter what. All Trump fans, for instance.

[–] WizardofFrobozz@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 week ago

Correct. They need to be dealt with, not engaged with.
