I just feel it's weird how many people suddenly have an issue with the word "weird" now that someone used it against a Republican once. Oh, the humanity, for such a word to be (very accurately) applied, oh, the horror.

Yes, terrible to "attack" the poor guy like that. He's just concerned for the level of the discourse, poor thing.

This you? Specifically: this you, arguing in a way that instantly, grossly obviously outs you as a troll. Not only the intensely weird way you're defending a murderer, but the intensely weird ways you're going about it. I'd elaborate, but don't feel like educating trolls.

So there's the answer to your " genuine " question. Of course, you remain free to ignore this terrible unprovoked attack from my side and pretend I'm quivering with rage, if that makes you feel better. :)

Are you American? If no, then you are dreadfully fortunate enough to not have to deal with it. Every election year is a bunch of apes flinging shit and this is just another turd in flight.

But if you still want the rundown it is "HA HA MAN FUK COUCH LELELELELELELELELE" and apparently it isn't even true. Credible, though, I know.

kbin.run although the missing instance blocking is really starting to get on my tits.

I've been hearing reports that "the market is way down" (due to Kamala/Democrats/god knows what else)

And how would you estimate the likelihood of any part of it being... uh, true? What are they basing it on, does it seem to check out with reality?

I mean, surely these allegations wouldn't, in a truly shocking twist, have come from their (notoriously pathologically dishonest) political enemies, right?

Cue "Green Demon Challenge"

The subtitle means it isn't canon. "Koma gag battle" means like a cartoon contest in this case.

I would have reservations about skill transferrability from field ant amputations to modern healthcare.

[–] amio@kbin.run 25 points 3 months ago

Hm. That's weird.

Not a slur. Not even close.

What it is is an omnipresent, versatile, variable, nuanced word, that someone apparently started using "politically" like fifteen fucking minutes ago - I don't see that as a compelling reason to hustle to change my lexicon, and wouldn't advise anyone else to do it either. It is literally playing into their dogshit tactics: "validating their view" is, respectfully, not a good argument if we're talking about the American right which I'm going out on a limb and assuming we are. This is because their "view" (like many of their imitators) is "I will bitch about everything I can possibly pretend to take offense at, or else make something up". Therefore, allowing them to dictate your vocabulary (extremely and intentionally hypocritically, between the incessant bitching about "political correctness") seems like a losing or at least pointlessly annoying proposition. You are playing chess with a pigeon, it will shit on the board and strut around like it's won.

If they didn't want to be called "weird":

  1. Maybe they shouldn't have been weird

  2. Maybe they shouldn't be whinging about it from the #1 spot on the podium of irrelevant namecalling and shit-flinging kindergarten/zoo tactics.

  3. Tough shit lol

  4. GOTO 3
