Excuse me? A tankie? Sadly I'm not delusional, I disagree with Cowbee on a whole lot of stuff, between you and me, you are also wasting your time because cowbee is deep down the ideological shitter.

As for my own positions, I wasn't aware they mattered to the point I was making, but to clarify then for you, I'm an egoist, which is the philosophy that stirner put forward, we did have a Lemmy community but it's quite hard to get the tribe off reddit, so I haven't been able to maintain it.

Egoism, to give you some context is a foundational idea within anarchism, and for those of us who care about detail, it's the defining difference between us and the ancaps.

    I don't actually enjoy watching people get really pressed over political stuff. Like these memes aren't provoking discussion, they aren't funny, and they just serve to upset people. You might not like tankies, I don't much agree with alot of their beliefs, but upsetting people doesn't achieve anything at all. Frankly I'd prefer it if the hexbear actually enjoyed using this platform, instead of spending their time fighting with dbzer0 over hot-air.

    I personally don't like spending my time arguing this stuff online either, and I can't imagine hexbear does either. I can't imagine the mods enjoy moderating effectively a huge bust up either.

    I suspect I speak for all people who have lives that extend beyond internet politics.

  • Nuts are just bad. (lemmy.dbzer0.com)
     

    I hate nuts. I'm not allergic to them.

    Everything about them is wrong, I've never had food that contained nuts that wouldn't have been significantly better without them.

    Chocolate with nuts - What was wrong with just the former

    Nuts on their own - Might as well eat wood

    Nutbars - gross.

    Food with nuts is just bad, and the sooner we move on from this dated cultural institution the better.

    This was inspired by the last two posts

    Don't argue with them. Don't give them facts or anything else.

    Ask them questions, Let them explain themselves, they'll see it as trying to convert you or explain MAGA to you.

    In the process of that, by asking the right question at the right time, they will slowly over the course of multiple years change their mind.

    Eventually they'll ask you about your viewpoint and you'll know youve made it the half way point
