Why are millennials killing genocide?
Nobody wants to 'cide anymore
People are just so pc nowadays
said Trump … (Very opionated & weird comment)
Has the woke agenda gone too far?
Because of avocado toast
Your average boomer is now in their 70’s. They are buying up property and mistreating their kids. Life is good, they think. Then they find out the youth are eating an easy food combo they never even fucking heard about, but one that’s cheap and amazing. “Avocado Toast? What the fuck is this shit? Spike the prices on avocado! Push it out of their price range!” I’m sorry sir! Avocado is cheap. It’s easily farmed. “Spike the prices” they scream, remembering their days on the stock market. They expect reason. Dominance An end to avocado toast. But it never comes. They watch aghast as young people continue to consume avocado toast despite their anger, and they take it personally. “If it’s so good why didn’t I get to have it when I was young???” they scream. They all lose their minds as the avocado trees bloom.

Maybe export them instead, shits expensive in Europe
The machine must ruin everything.

The only thing I’m proud of when looking at gen Z is that they are completely unwilling to go to war for the military complex and giving their life fighting a battle where they have nothing to gain but everything to lose. That’s way smarter than my generation or the baby boomers ever were.
are completely unwilling to go to war for the military complex
Are they though?
"Post-millennials (also known as Generation Z or Gen Z), born from 1996 to the present, now constitute nearly 90% of the Army’s active duty junior enlisted and nearly 35% of all junior officers (Defense Manpower Data Center, 2018, p. 29). "
That is the only justified killing. And waves, but I’m no surfer.
Centrist is picking and choosing from each side, not doing a little of everything.
I’m also picking and choosing from each side, which is why I’m a leftist. Does that make me a centrist?

the dogshit stupid takes i see in this community are just proving that nobody here has actually ever encountered a centrist
please do tell me about your mythical centrist
This comment does not inspire confidence in your willingness to actually read it.
Did their comment hurt your feels?
Bad faith bro strikes again
I’m excited you think of me enough to give me a nickname!
It’s so cute, I can picture our future together.
I haven’t encountered many unicorns either, just horses with ice cream cones on their head. Still looking though.
I haven’t encountered Rhino’s in person but have seen many online. I think that might be what you’re looking for.
ah yes, and i haven’t found any actually independent thinking liberals and conservatives. just people who are checking their favourite left/right wing political commentators twitter to regurgitate what they say.
And always picking genocide from the political salad bar.
Just a little casual genocide, nothing major, some dead LGBT folk here, some dead minorities there… normal stuff. Just wanna grill.
As long as they’re our alliest, gotta let Fascists be Fascist once in a while to release some steam.
A few dead children and blown up hospitals is just collateral damage. There’s nothing we could do about it1
1that wouldn’t upset our Fascist allies.
They’re not even good allies. They’re busy shooting American citizens and selling US military technology to hostile powers. But I guess the end times needs Israel to begin so 50% of our politicians will mindlessly bootlick Israel and 40% of the rest are spineless cretins who think bipartisanship means ‘compromise, always’.
I love the smell of minority&meek soap in the morning. Then I remember I’m a right wing catholic white man with privileges and I use them by shooting some jets of fire with my pocket flamethrower from the fully open window of my monster truck while on the way to the usual grill with the boys, as my god intended ;)
Edit: Obviously satire
A little genocide never killed anyone.
Interesting how everyone seems to think this tweet from 2018 seems to refer to th situation in Gaza in 2023.
I can’t believe someone with an anime profile picture isn’t spouting bigoted nonsense.
I usually see anime profile pics submitting code to Linux open source projects.
anime pfps are one of the only valid demonstrations of horseshoe theory
Like they said, bigoted nonsense
That’s because it’s a Nichijou anime profile picture. That’s a green flag in my book.

so misrepresenting centrism is not bigotry? which dictionary are you using?
But nonsense nonetheless.
Is it though? Is the narrative from the center and the right not overwhelmingly in favor of the ethnic cleansing occurring in Gaza?
It’s nonsense because the far left’s position is cheering on Hamas, the complete destruction of the state of Israel, and chanting “from the river to the sea”.
The centrist position is “ceasefire, just stay the fuck away from each other.”
Your overton window is fucked if you think this is what actual centrists think.

THANK YOU
Those crows were circling.
Are you 'murican? I don’t think the rest of the world agrees on any of the US’s “definitions” of left, right and liberal. From a European POV, the US democrats are really, really far to the right. Sanders might be leaning toward the center. The republicans are a strange mixture of libertarian regarding economical matters and very very right-wing/intrusive on personal matters. Whenever someone even mentions/comments other people’s sexual orientation and identity I automitcally assume they are creep that wants to sniff other people’s bedsheets. How can you be partly libertarian and also creepily nazi-intrusive? US-republican invention I can’t wrap my head around, that is.
Cough Israel cough.
Ha, you activated my trap card. I play not-so controversial opinion. Flavor text, “Biden is center right.”
Uhm… knight to B5?
You fool, my face down card on B5 was ANOTHER TRAP CARD.
THAT’S NUMBERWANG!
Do you even en pessant?
Centrist: it can’t be genocide because they’re doing it slowly.
It’s not genocide because there are still some left.
Actually encountered one of those in the wild.
Which centrists actually support any amount of genocide?
You people make up such fantasies in your head. This is far from the common trail of thought.
Bro/Sis this is what is happening in the debate about refugees in Germany right now so no, actually you are wrong
Well, back when Steinmeier was our foreign minister and toured poor countries to advertise Germany as the land of opportunity and wealth because corporations wanted slaves they don’t have to pay properly, I was called a Nazi by many for saying that they won’t find any opportunity or wealth in Germany. Our government never had the well-being of immigrants in mind, they just stuffed them into dilapidated “refugee camps”, told them their education is insufficient and left them to rot. I am not surprised.
Any relevant links? I tried to google it, but it seems to me that the debate is about funding them - not about killing them.
I can’t speak to Germany, but in the UK the government had to be forced to use the lifeguard to save drowning people because they wanted to let refugees die, and had to be forced to stop sending people to Rwanda (even if they’re not from Rwanda) just to get rid of them.
Both stories are easily googlable.
That’s not a genocide. There is a big difference between refusing to expend resources to save peoples life and actively expending resources to destroy lives.
I dont particularly care about defining what is and isn’t a genocide, I care about not killing people.
And the Nobel Peace Prize you get for that will be mailed to you. Until it arrives, let’s do discuss about definitions, nuances, and all these other annoying details that set a principled debate apart from blind virtue signalling.
I, for one, really care about the distinction between initiating something evil and merely not doing enough™ to stop it. The UK did not made them refugees. Sure, the old British empire caused trouble all around the globe, but modern refugees are mostly escaping from regional wars and totalitarian governments. One could say that it’s still their fault because that’s the aftermath of them leaving, but that would imply that the UK should have kept occupying these countries, so you probably don’t want to go there.
So they did not cause them to be refugees. Both the refusal to save them from drowning and the deportation are an expression not of a deliberate attempt to kill them, but of a refusal to help them. The UK government does not want these refugees to be in the UK.
If we take this issue and place in the OP template, it’d look something like this:
Right: Let’s not let refugees in.
Left: Let’s let all the refugees in.
Center: Guys, you’re gonna have to compromise, let’s just let /some/ of the refugees in.
…One should notice that:
- Unlike the original post, this is not a strawman. You don’t have to go very far to the right to find plenty of people who want to let no refugee in, and you don’t have to go very far to the left to find plenty of people who want to let them all in.
- Once the strawman is removed - the centrist position does not seem that absurd anymore.
- If you keep insisting that “not accepting refugees” equals “genocide” - people will stop taking your claims about genocide so seriously. Because you don’t care about definitions, so it could mean anything.

Echo chambers and its consequences have been a disaster for the human race
Surprisingly, simply saying “EcHo ChAmBeR!!1!” without counter arguments has not fixed the problem.
I’m as shocked as you are.
Surprisingly, making it worse does even less good than pointing the causes out
I’m indeed shocked you tried so badly to make a “gotcha” towards obvious statements
there’s no agreed definition of echo chamber though.
It is an echo chamber to say “murder is bad” “CSAM is bad” “rape is bad” - as 99.99% of people, when pushed, will agree those things are bad, echoing each other verbatim.
Rightwingers aren’t people
Point proven
Indeed, the point that rightwing scum should be hounded up and left in a deserted island is brilliantly made by rightwingers themselves.
What kind of drugs are you on?

It’s fucking satire
Did you think this was supposed to be a direct quote?
So you, a non-leftist, are against the cultural genocide and ethnic cleansing occurring in Gaza? That’s refreshing!
Abortions for some, miniature American flags for others!
i hate to break it to you, but there are a lot of leftists that are very comfortable with genocide.
You can have a little genocide, as a treat
Enlightening comment section. Very revealing discussions on our current political discourse.
