they are selfish.
That's where all of those symptoms stem from.
selfish greed.
Lots of them are, but it's stupid comments like this which make me shake my head. The left will lose 2024 with their fake moral superiority and fail to understand what happened.
Again.
get your maga out of here.
*The left will lose 2024 with their fake moral superiority..."
it is not a fake moral superiority, the left has a practical moral superiority demonstrated by material policy that positively affects the lives of people.
The left beat you in 2020 because of their tangible moral superiority by providing civil protections and material assets for the rights of the electorate.
conservatives are legally trying and succeeding in stealing the rights, liberties and property of Americans.
Americans don't like that, and voted to the left.
they're fighting back by prosecuting and removing the selfish conservatives who are harming people, and are creating laws and funds protecting everyone,
civil rights are not a "fake" moral superiority, they are a tangible moral superiority effected through practical, respectful policy.
The smug feeling of moral superiority and the continuous willingness to correct the other's behaviour is THE reason why people can't stand "left/wokism/whatever". Continously pointing out on fake "offensive words" just to show off how morally superior they are.
That how it looks from outside.
(For context i am not American and don't guve a fuck about orange man neither for so called "christian values" so don't try to paint me as a conservative MAGA supporter.)
"moral superiority and the continuous willingness to correct the other's behaviour"
it is tangible practical moral superiority coming from the protection and support of civil rights and liberty.
rather than taking away employee rights, the left is giving employees rights.
rather than taking away minority rights, the left is legally protecting minority rights.
those are not imaginary feelings, those are practical and effective policies.
"The smug feeling of moral superiority and the continuous willingness to correct the other's behaviour is THE reason why people can't stand "left/wokism/whatever". Continously pointing out on fake "offensive words" just to show off how morally superior they are. "
this is largely your imagination and pointed conservative media and a poor excuse for selfish people to continue abusing vulnerable people for their own gain.
offensive words are not fake, and there's nothing wrong with being considerate toward everyone.
the fact that you don't understand haven't considered the difference between protected civil liberties and imaginary fake word hunts from the left (that are actually perpetrated by conservatives banning books from libraries) demonstrates exactly how successful the conservative media you consume is.
consider what you're saying, consider the information around you.
anybody accusing the left of instigating moral panics while the right is literally banning books in libraries over words that they don't like or understand clearly doesn't have even the most tenuous comprehension of what is really happening.
Good, that's not what I am talking about
Good, that's not what i am talking about neither
Cool I agree!
Oh wait, so telling someone "your fears/points you makes, it's just your imagination" is a valid argument now? lol
Well you didn't even bother to check if we are talking about the same points. Good on you I guess. You also somehow deduced I consume conservative medias, that's some skill!
Consider what you are saying, consider the information about you.
Banning books is dumb, I don't know what makes you say I d support it. It never occured to me to ban a book, and I am not planning or supporting anyone who does.
Again 95% of your comment is completely beside the point, because you somehow assumed my view points without ever considering I actually have similar views, I just don't subscribe to every other random bullshit "the left" (whatever that means, because I don't consider myself "right" neither) does.
nobody's throwing you in jail for being the public bigot you aspire to. use all the slurs you want.
people are, however, murdering trans people and banning books. in the real world.
have fun cradling your make believies.
So you think that being an asshole and holding the country hostage is a reasonable response to being scolded? Like a literal fucking toddler?
Sorry I don't know what you refer to
