Fuck Pooh. Fuck trump. Go Canada.
least bloodthirsty lib
What part of that statement gave you any clue as to what their political leanings are?
their bloodthirstiness, however them using "pooh" to talk about xi jinping further narrows it down to most likely dem-leaning lib.
Man, did you somehow manage to skip the "Western Culture" class during your re-education? Not a single part of that statement makes any sense.
I'm really intrigued by this, re-education from what? What education do you think I had that I then got re-educated from and why would "western culture" be a part of it?
Edit: Also how did I get into this re-education? Was I forced or did I voluntarily sign up? Please paint me a picture here I'm fascinated by this
mathemachristian tries not to gargle authoritarian nuts (impossible challenge)
Hey now, maybe he just really loves billionairs and wants them to have tax breaks even if it means a bunch of clowns run his country into the ground.
libs try to not be homophobic challenge (even less possible)
Are there any female authoritarian leaders? I can't think of any current ones, so it may be simply descriptive instead of sexist/homophobic.
The fact that you use "to gargle balls" as an insult, suggesting it is a demeaning act is homophobic and sexist
holy shit dude what doesn't offend you?
and the fact that you have nothing negative to say about authoritarians shows enough where your bitch ass stands.
absolute clown.
man this snowflake is so offended let me throw in another sexist insult
really got me there bud
I didn't use it at all. I just pointed out that it's only sexist/homophobic if other arrangements are given a pass, while the male-male arrangement is used in a pejorative manner. (On an unrelated note, it's a fun fact that we can now safety assume that you are a male. I'm curious what the male: female ratio is among tankies). If anything, it's the s+m community that should be offended, since the phrase implies that being the sexually submissive partner is inherently bad.
My point is using "gargling balls" as an insult implies its a demeaning act. It follows that (hetero) women and gay men are demeaned by it or that they at least should be ashamed of it. Performing oral sex has long been coded (and used) as showing dominance, with the person performing the act submitting to the domination of the person they are performing it on. To the point that men performing oral sex on women would be seen as effeminate and therefore lesser. This is being used in a s&m context sure, but my point is that it's mainly used to enforce the patriarchy, where women and gay men are seen as lesser.
Edit as to the male:female ratio hexbear did a poll a while back: https://chapo.chat/post/3635039
The world should have parked a line of ships right down the middle decades ago
I think according to the new naming rules it's the "Strait of China"

Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
