• The American Heritage® Dictionary of the English Language, 5th Edition

Suppose calling men bees is more polite than calling them pricks…

Blah blah blah.

Says you. You’re also inflating my example and simplifying it, making a strawman out of it. I say differently, and so do all those folk downvoting you.

I’m done with this discourse. You’re determined to stick to your position in the mud, and not worth the effort. Good luck with that.

You’re minimizing, plain and simple, by accentuating the positive aspects and softening the negative. Generally folk minimizing are in support of the thing they claim to be in opposition of.

If that’s not your intent, then you really need to work on your communication skills.

As for being triggered, you’re wrong. I believe you’re projecting. Might the cause be all those down votes your posts are receiving? Sure, they don’t mean much… Other than each vote meaning one person disagrees with you. Some folk can’t handle that well.

“I think that instead of it being the end we will simply learn that fully fascist world is actually quite good for business and nothing will change for vast majority of people. I’m not saying it will be good. It will be worse, just not as bad as you think.”

My understanding of your statement: Fascism is good for business! Sure, it’s bad for some people, but most people won’t even notice it. There’s good things about fascism that you’re not aware of. It’s not all bad!

Triggered? Hardly. I’m not about to let a comment like the above go untouched for the bullshit it is, however.

You need to take a walk down to your local library and read some history books.

You’re the one extolling the virtues of fascism.

Add projection to the list, too. You’re just trolling, now. Good luck with that.

Even for a bootlicker, you seem especially bitter, sarcastic, and downtrodden. Might help to find someone licensed to talk that out. Ain’t healthy keeping it bottled up, and spewing vitriol on Lemmy doesn’t help anyone.

Better than trying to lick my way to the center of a boot while making disingenuous jabs on Lemmy.

Speaking up and calling out fascist behavior. Not spending my money on businesses that promote fascists. Voting. Keeping my long barrel in good condition, may it never need to be used.

Soap, ballot, jury, and cartridge boxes, in that order.

Spoken like a good little bootlicker.

Best keep that tongue on that boot, lest it steps on you instead. Same goes for those businesses under a fascist government. I’m sure life will be good for them, especially if they don’t mind the taste of leather.

Remove their tongue from the boot, and business won’t be good for them.

I spend as much time washing my armpits as I do under my foreskin. Roll it back, quick lather and rinse, and done.

Even if I’m camping for days at a time, away from running water, a quick wipe down with plain water and a wash cloth keeps the smell and smegma away.

It tastes like sarcasm.

This whole thread is sarcasm, dipped in a whipped sarcasm batter, crusted with crushed sarcasm, then deep fried in a pure sarcastic oil for a sarcastically long time until it’s a nice even color. It’s then drizzled with a sarcastic reduction, and presented on china with a sarcastic pattern with accompanying cutlery.

Gentoo. I’d tell you the version number, but I’m still compiling.

Good bot.

I’d be making a lot of family, friends, and coworkers very happy. Reminds me of the Elders’ “Seven Years” https://youtu.be/woh3Qqx8mjk

Add sardines to that, and you’ll have reached a whole new level.

I melted my 315p for a Nomad. I like the styling of the 315p more, but it wasn’t worth the loss in functionality.
