My favorites are the one-liners that just repeat the same joke with no elaboration or critical thought.

"Jews for Hitler" https://www.reddit.com/r/nyc/comments/18hl2ue/hundreds_of_queers_for_palestine_demonstrators/kd7ds8i/

"Chickens for nuggets."https://www.reddit.com/r/nyc/comments/18hl2ue/hundreds_of_queers_for_palestine_demonstrators/kd78d88/

"Cows for Cheeseburgers" https://www.reddit.com/r/nyc/comments/18hl2ue/hundreds_of_queers_for_palestine_demonstrators/kd8ebv5/

And finally, "When the chickens march for Popeyes," which is followed up with "You win Reddit today" + "I snorted laughing at this" "https://www.reddit.com/r/nyc/comments/18hl2ue/hundreds_of_queers_for_palestine_demonstrators/kd77ez3/

And then we have a kind, considerate liberal who says "Please deport these idiots to Gaza." https://www.reddit.com/r/nyc/comments/18hl2ue/hundreds_of_queers_for_palestine_demonstrators/kd77srw/

Along with this guy who clearly does not understand the Constitution, saying, "I don't care what you believe. Its a free country. DO NOT BLOCK THE FUCKING ROADS." https://www.reddit.com/r/nyc/comments/18hl2ue/hundreds_of_queers_for_palestine_demonstrators/kd7cz4m/

And finally, a special shoutout to this absolute genius who literally just posted a link to the Wikipedia page for "Islamo-leftism" https://www.reddit.com/r/nyc/comments/18hl2ue/hundreds_of_queers_for_palestine_demonstrators/kd7u2ll/

So if we're to adopt the position that the victims of genocidal actions should not get our support because we assume that they are anti-queer and, in fact, we should be supporting their genocide then I have to stop and wonder exactly how progressive holocaust victims were on the matter of queer rights?

Because if queer people should only oppose genocide when we feel like we are supported by a particular group and if we take the baseline levels of queerphobia from a century ago in Europe then it seems like we would be acting in our "best interests" to support the holocaust by their shitty logic.

Or, let's make it more contemporaneous: "I do not oppose the (alleged) Uyghur genocide because (I assume) the Uygurs are not progressive enough on queer rights for my tastes."

I wonder how they'd manage to square either of those two circles?

I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:

Somehow the city subreddits are always the worst. Absolutely infested with chuds

[-] PKMKII@hexbear.net 22 points 11 months ago

It’s the combination of right wing trolls who don’t live in the city in question, people who live in the suburbs outside of the city in question, and finance/tech bro yuppies.

[-] Mokey@hexbear.net 19 points 11 months ago

The funny irony thing is that the people who do live in these cities and post on subs always want to talk about the culture and their idea of culture is eating at a restaurant that seasons their food. That's not culture, that's like watching Spongebob and saying you understand Underwater life, that's you being a tourist in the same block you live in man.

Ironically, these are the people who kill culture, never had their own organic culture and wouldn't even know culture if it punched them in the face.

[-] WIIHAPPYFEW@hexbear.net 10 points 11 months ago

I’ve been working on a residents:redditors ratio chart to track which cities have the worst gentrifiers but Pittsburgh has a ratio twice as worse as anyone else’s, probably because its sub includes the entire west third of PA

“i snorted laughing at this. i also snorted laughing at the 50 comments almost identical to this”

reddit-logo losers are so unfunny

[-] Tachanka@hexbear.net 28 points 11 months ago

The redditor snorted 51 times? They might be a pigmask-off

[-] HumanBehaviorByBjork@hexbear.net 41 points 11 months ago

So they shut the road down because of “stolen land” and yet they are living on stolen land from native Americans. You can’t make this shit up

Ngl this has to by some Astro turfing of comedy from the Israelis (I’m Israeli) bc we troll ppl and are great with comedy.

Felix was right about these people

[-] HumanBehaviorByBjork@hexbear.net 32 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

like 90% of the comments there are clearly astroturf pushing a single, clear talking point, but this one seems too gormless and pathetic to be fake

[-] oktherebuddy@hexbear.net 17 points 11 months ago

every single reddit thread lately has had an alarming number of people going "I'm israeli and..." you'd think maybe people would realize something is up???

[-] HumanBehaviorByBjork@hexbear.net 35 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

"Jews for Hitler"

It's quicker to just say Likud

[-] CommunistBear@hexbear.net 27 points 11 months ago

I was about to post but honestly I think it would be self harm at this point

[-] HumanBehaviorByBjork@hexbear.net 19 points 11 months ago

the thing that has prevented me from making a fourth reddit account is realizing that i would not be able to go a week without sending a graphic death threat to one of these monsters

These people haven't felt an ounce of solidarity since they were kids and it shows.

[-] ped_xing@hexbear.net 17 points 11 months ago

I feel dirty sticking up for any part of reddit, but you're dunking on an r/nyc post. r/newyorkcity is far less chud.

[-] axont@hexbear.net 12 points 11 months ago

i think these past few months more than anything have really cemented in me that white Americans do not view Arab Muslims as human beings. You'd think I would have already known that, I lived through 9/11 and the Iraq War. I even remember the same thing being said back then, that gay people and women shouldn't oppose the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq because Muslims are simply the enemy.

this is truly sick shit on display. They can't consider for a second why queer people might sympathize with Palestinians. The thought only goes as far as "Palestinian = Muslim = Evil." And they don't even offer sympathy for these protestors, it's an immediate death threat. Telling people that Palestinians would throw gay people off a bridge? Jesus Christ, and you're supposed to be better? Making up fantasies in your head about queer folk getting stoned to death or thrown off bridges because they dared to suggest Palestinians should be allowed to be alive?

[-] GnastyGnuts@hexbear.net 11 points 11 months ago

"

Colonialism and imperialism have always tried to foment conflicts in order to divide and conquer. In the case of Palestinians, as [the Lebanese LGBT group] Helem concluded, “[T]he rights of gays, lesbians, bisexuals and transgenders should not be placed in competition with the long struggle of the Palestinian people, including Palestinian LGBT people, for self-determination, for the right to return to their homes, and the struggle against apartheid and the occupation of their lands.”

Today we see how the imperialists—the U.S. to Israelis—use the experiences of women, of gays, of transgenders as pretexts for imperialist war. The white supremacist ideology replaces the colonial claim of “bringing civilization,” into imperialist claims that they are “bringing democracy.” But Washington and Tel Aviv have brought ruthless reactionary occupations to the Middle East.

These idiots love to spin up bullshit atrocity porn and just run wild with it as if it is even slightly based in reality. The reality is gay people have gone to Gaza and they were treated fine, like in this video putting all their bullshit claims to rest:

[-] AtomPunk@hexbear.net 7 points 11 months ago

The Los Angeles subreddit is no better. a few days ago the yuppies and landlords inhabiting that filth were bitching and moaning about a protest that blocked a major freeway. Of course they deliberately missed the point, complaining that these protests will "only make people hate the cause", as if these crocodile-teared ghouls weren't already on the side of genocide.

[-] Aria@lemmygrad.ml 5 points 11 months ago

Not to insult real Jews or to validate Israel's stated identity, but "Jews for Hitler" is just kind of the state of Israel.

It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
