I used to roll with people like that and no, they are not bloodthirsty savages the way he's trying to stereotype anyone who doesn't agree with him. They're actually very patient, methodical people because they have to be. The stereotype is absurd and falls flat on its face with even a second's worth of thought applied to it.
And that's the point -- his stereotyping is not a rational argument or a good point, it's meant to remind people of propaganda on the issue they were exposed to all their lives, to trigger an emotional reaction in others, to shut down our critical thinking to lessen the likelihood we'll reject his insane demands.
It's all just fascist propaganda. That's all it's ever been.
It's not facist propaganda: I'm trying to help you stay outta trouble.
I'm not saying OP or everyone who looks like that is a violent weirdo or a snitch hiding out among leftists. But I am saying that those kinds of people absolutely exist (and that this is what they look like).
Everyone here should listen to this docuseries about a conman who took cash from the FBI to act like a militant antifacist, just to try and talk people into saying or doing things that would give the FBI an excuse to take them off the street. The guy pretty much single-handled blew a huge whole in the Denver activist scene in 2020: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/alphabet-boys/id1668980612
And this is the second time you tried to do literally the exact same thing, so let me repeat my answer from the last time you purposefully dredged up a non-issue to try to make OP look bad:
Your problem is that you are not listening when you are told no, and you are not listening because you are just fash here to simp for the right. You are very VERY much on the wrong side of history on this, and in the next few years, if your fascist friends get what they want, I hope you are forced to watch. You won't like it. At all.
I have no beef with Op, dude. And honestly -- and I'm speaking to any third parties, because I get that you're unpersuadeable -- if you ever meet someone who cannot reconcile any genuine criticism without declaring that the messenger is a fascist agent AND that the criticism is fully personal... talk to them.
Either this person needs to learn to hold space for good faith disagreement or they will only follow their own impulses and cut off you if you ever disagree.
@pde: We can disagree without it being personal and without me being a fascist. Read that again.
Alright, I guess you're gonna keep playing the dig-in-your-heels game and I am going to once again repeat what I said the last time I caught you peddling lies:
And I am going to keep doing this until you stop. You shall have no quarter here.
You are motte and baileying yourself right here in your own post by claiming you were only saying there "could be some" feds masquerading as fash when I, for the third fucking time now, just quoted you specifically talking about OP.
We've already addressed the possibility of fash waving flags the way OP is so once again, that's irrelevant, and my reasoning still stands.
And once again, you're lying and digging your heels in thinking you're going to sway people. And once again, it's not going to work.
Take your sniveling bullshit elsewhere.
Fair enough, I have no doubt there are stable individuals that do it purely on the basis of protecting children, improving the community, maybe even rehabilitating the mentally ill.
I was talking more like the YouTube channel People vs. Preds, who seem to be more interested in the money and fame. They escalate for the views and then all their evidence gets denied in court for not taking proper legal steps. The comments on their videos are vile. You can't help but think some of these people are only here because this is the acceptable hate.
...what demands?
No you're not. You're backtracking when called out on a lie. Stop fucking lying.
Yeah, playing stupid won't work with me, chump. We both know damn well what you're doing: using every rhetorical trick in the book to stop the left adopting violence because you and I both know it's the only chance they have of stopping the fascists from taking over the country completely, and you don't want that.
Well, it's not going to work because no one here is dumb enough to fall for it, and for that I am glad.
What
Lol I'm honestly dumbfounded. How do I even respond to such an accusation. I'm just sitting here wasting time on the internet, go fight the good fight brave comrade or whatever.
Yeah, your kind never have anything to say when called out on lying. Mission accomplished. Blocked
