I saw a post that talked about racism towards people and when I talked about it the response I got was very heated and a person even called lemmy.world a community of 'hitlerites'

I have been around for a week or so and this is my first time seeing such explicit vulgar reaction towards another community, is this a one-off or should I block hexbear?

Given the liberal meltdown post election and inability to self reflect about the landslide loss, blue MAGA is entirely fitting.

[–] michaelmrose@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago (11 children)

MAGA is a movement that glorifies a Hitler like figure who has promised to put tens of millions of honest workers in concentration camps because somehow immigrants are the cause of all their woes. These folks were both willing to deny any loss for any reason and willing to kill their neighbors in a civil war to "take their county back" if they lose.

"bluemaga" are people what mad that America's Hitler won?

bluemaga were coming to the defense of Genocide Joe until the very last second and the only thing that made them switch was a bad TV performance. They didn't care about the genocide, it was a bad TV performance that made them go "uuuh not a good look sweaty" and then they started rooting for the genocides second-in-command. They're mad Hitler won because they were rooting for Mussolini

Damn what a fucking burn right there. But they’ll still never get what the problem is, because they’re liberals and so long as the west keeps delivering treats to the well off coastal suburban liberal base the democrats can do nothing wrong. Genocide? What genocide? Trump will be worse! meanwhile trumps getting a ceasefire in place (which granted who knows if Israel will actually follow or if everyone’s full of shit) with the same conditions as the one biden offered months ago, only this time yahoo is agreeing to it. Liberal talking points aging like milk so far.

And for the record, I voted third party, and I’ll continue to drink liberal tears. The democrats would rather lose to a fascist than adopt leftist positions.

I remember this comment https://lemmy.world/comment/10079489 because it's such a good view into the average treatler brain. They believe Trump would be good for them but out of the kindness of their hearts they're willing to sacrifice some imagined treats and those ethnicities better be grateful for it.

I can’t see the comment can you quote it? It’s probably from someone I blocked for being a dumb and annoying liberal

[–] mathemachristian@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I’ve had this conversation with my SO. Technically speaking the best move for me as a white male would be to support Trump. Instead I vote for Democrats hoping for positive changes for all people. For most of my life I’ve thought I was “far left” for American standards, but since I’ve joined portions of Lemmy and Reddit you’d think I was a fucking Republican.

Certain portions of the left would rather spit in their own eye for unrealistic principles, even if it means that a worse alternative is the result.

LOLLLLL dude has the political understanding of frog or something.

I’d love to know what this guy considers to be “left”.

Edit - also that’s less about treats and more about identity, branding and marketing. Like dudes who drive F350 pickup trucks to do a Walmart run. It’s all identity and cosplaying “a real man!” Meanwhile their F350 is spotless and looks like it came off the lot yesterday.
