There is an obnoxious love for communism and hate for capitalism?

What other edgy things is Lemmy into?

Oh, they love to hate on cars and roads, for some reason.

There's also that weird hypocrisy where they hate cops but love unions, but they don't understand that the reason they hate cops is because of unions.

I get the car / road hate. Cars sucks. And devoting so much space to roads and parking sucks.

The US doesnt have small community/ villages - it has sprawling parking lots and ways to get to the next one.

There's a fundamental issue with the way we plan our cities. We plan them around cars, when we should be planning them around people.

i hate cops because most of them are assholes

[–] Hazdaz@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

And they're asshole because unions protect the bad ones.

Looks like you may have hit a nerve

[–] Hazdaz@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I know. It's great!

LOL

I'm trying to think of what other things I missed.

Unions aren't why people should hate cops are. Cops are why people should hate cops.

Not surprising Mr enlightened centrisism is a bootlicker though.

Check out !lemmymoment@lemmy.world to critique and playfully mock those type of lemmings.

Looks like few are in on the joke because almost all those posts are rather heavily downvoted.
