    It’s very simple, really. You’re correct, they simply believe that “wokeness” is socialism and kinda just lump it all together. Define it as “things I don’t like/am too stupid to understand” and then it become a synonym for so many things!

    But yea they hate that companies have realized that the majority population doesn’t like racism or homophobia and that they can make more money by at least pretending to be better. They also don’t realize that capitalism actually worked in this case and the customers were able to pressure the companies into compliance.

    The comment is wrong in so many fascinating ways but it’s all consistently wrong so I’m not at all surprised that it’s real.


  • Is there something I’m missing? They won because they got the most votes between three parties(but not a majority) and then the most again during the second round of voting between the top two. They won both times.

    Ideologies aside your comment is written like you suspect foul play or something. “It’s broken because they could never win if there was competition” is just a terrible take so I assume I must be interpretting it wrong, right?





  • It really is quite easy to ignore them. I’ve been able to do a stellar job at it, but I also find that it’s really easy since I’ve never met a single person in my entire damned life who likes it to the point where I feel the need to take some kind of action. Yes, sometimes a friend explains that they like pumpkin spice and that is not a crime. It’s good because then if I ever get them something I’ll know what they like.

    Yes, you said people can like things. You also made it pretty clear that if you ever hear them excited about the thing they like you’ll label them as annoying and then the rest of your nonsense comment kicks in.

    Oh, and the bacon thing was a deliberate ad/propoganda campaign by the pork industry and it’s likely that 90% of what you saw as fervor was really just an advertisement. The rest is because, and I know this might seem crazy, bacon is pretty good and people like it.


  • It’s a jab at people who foam at the mouth whenever they get mad that someone is having more fun than they are despite being totally allowed to also do the thing if it weren’t for whatever trauma they’re not dealing with.

    I drink my coffee black, too, I just don’t do it because I think I’m a manly-man. It’s actually because I hate the texture of milk or cream and the sugar, to my taste, just exists beside the coffee instead of sweetening it so it’s always awful. I don’t even like coffee that much so it makes no difference either way.
