This shit is already difficult enough without emulating the thought termination, dissonance, and disunity fostering traits
You mean traits like telling everyone “good job, take five” when they didn’t do anything and we’re all still in terrible danger?
How bout no.
Characterizing it that way feels like you just want an excuse to stick your head in the sand and stop fighting. If you’re fighting to feel good about winning, go join the other side and feel good about winning while losing as much as you like. But this literally is not a final real victory and should not be celebrated until we’ve actually won. You’re being whiny and petty about serious shit. This discussion is over.
“Okay we won this battle but the war isn’t over and the enemy is going to immediately react to this victory by attacking elsewhere.”
“OMG CAN’T YOU JUST TAKE A WIN”
If you’re done fighting then go sit down honey. But do it quietly please. There’s a war on.
How to take a win:
Christ, the gymnastics you’re going through to exonerate her of any responsibility to act like a decent human being, to maybe avoid taking a massive shit on someone else’s feelings.
Twisting this to make her out to be some kind of good person for this is outright disgusting. I hope, for the good of humanity, that you don’t date.
No one is entitled to a relationship.
I didn’t say anyone was.
They are owed respect and kindness.
Those are the very things the lady in this situation failed to show. If someone having trauma in their past and so much as speaking about it is enough to make her not want to date them, and she just lets them go on and on about it like she’s their therapist only to dump them after, that’s not respectful or kind at all. That’s a sign of someone addicted to having a steady stream of people to date and reject for petty reasons.
Literally everyone has some kind of shitty trauma in their past. If someone refuse to date anyone who speaks about theirs, they’re a shitty human being. It’s not supportive to do that to people, and if she gave a shit about honesty she would be up front about her hangups instead of nodding and smiling then dumping someone. That behavior reflects a lack of empathy, which is a crucial trait for being actually supportive and honest.
Then surely you would know that NATO’s propaganda is far more pervasive and commonplace than that of non-NATO countries, and that just because another source disagrees with NATO’s official message it’s not necessarily propaganda (at least, not one that fabricates evidence)?
Yes I know that. It is propaganda, though. I mean, it’s pretty fuckin obvious. Hilariously so. I get that it works really well on uneducated people living in enforced ignorance, but I’m not one of them. You’re a faux-communist dictatorship propaganda sockpuppet and you stick out like a sore thumb.
Hint: maybe you shouldn’t all post this dreck on .ml accounts.
Yeah, I already knew your argument was dickless.
If you’re gonna masturbate do it privately please.
Oh, you’re just a straight up tankie lmao. Ta-ta!
Yes, those two are the same. They’re not two different sides. The side opposite them both is woke, learns what propaganda looks like, recognizes it, refuses it, and doesn’t employ it as a tactic. Get outta here trying to paint me as a centrist when the common enemies of mankind are all on the side of rape, genocide, and greed.
You notice people slurping up one propaganda while you’re slurping up another, and think you’re smarter than they are.
Well yeah, that goes without saying.
It depends on how you say it. I haven’t gotten any bad reactions yet. One lady was surprised and delighted to be addressed with dignity for a change.
The discrimination is on the basis of race. That doesn’t make it right, that doesn’t mean that’s the actual reason they’re doing it in their minds. You’re adding unnecessary context to the base word instead of adding the appropriate expansions to the base word to make it fit the desired context.
You just love moving those goalposts so you can keep having a leg to stand on.
I don’t love you doing it. Ta-ta.
“let’s look at racism”
brings up historic examples of systemic, institutionalized racism, omitting every single personal act of racism in history
You expect me to take this seriously as a rebuttal?
Because it’s not powerism, it’s racism.
You idolized an abusive grifter. Get over it.
