Nice bogeyman you got there, really polished. You must have worked hard on it.

[–] AntiOutsideAktion@lemmy.ml 2 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

I'm sorry, what do you think a 'boogeyman' is? Do you dipshits just throw darts at a board to pick thought terminating cliches?

How does the concept of 'boogeyman' relate to the idea that you have never been in a position to learn if you have free speech in the first place, since you never say anything that conflicts with power?

damn, you're constructing new bogeymans to punch at an accelerating pace! That increasing efficiency curve gives me some real market liberalism vibes. 📈

/end joke

In case you really don't get it, look at what you answered to initially and then ask yourself how your accusation relates to that. You keep accusing others of things to then throw punches at those accusations (the bogeyman) to immediately force the other person into a defensive position, even if those accusations weren't even on-topic. It's a manipulative communication strategy to one-up your perceived 'opponent' in a discussion right from the start. Sadly this is a very common thing to come from political extremists, causing anyone who's aware of this to be even more wary.

Nobody, absolutely nobody should ever reply to something this toxic as you can only lose. So to reduce the emotional tension you've might caused and show how ridiculous the whole interaction is I'll make fun about you.

This the only honest explanation you'll get from me about this.

Oh thank you I understand now. Asking a westerner to critically examine their views and how society shaped them is a microaggression and I should just let you say whatever the hell you want without pushback even if the product of that is war and the killing of hundreds of thousands of people who otherwise would live. I'm victimizing you :(

Burgerland chuds should never be put on the defensive. Americans are perfect little angels who are never wrong about anything.

just as an aside, holy shit joke of the year

As you can see it's too late: I have depicted you as the soy wojack

Haha, thanks mate. 😁 I'll rather have my fun with them though for reasons I just outlined here, for them to either take and grow or completely ignore / misunderstand. https://discuss.tchncs.de/comment/14637515
