    Noticing shit libs coming here arguing against anarchism because we dont try to stop problems they have, that it is not proven we would have, by making them worse.

    Pointing out potential pitfalls by saying ‘you could have a lesser version of this problem that defines our whole shit’ and then just not engaging with any response because they’re just here to justify shit they know is vile and doesn’t even work for the thing they’re using to justify it.

    Its like the whole ‘why is this violence happening’ ‘totally unjustified, appeared from nowhere, has no cause, you can only kill it or accept it, not prevent it. Except by violence.’ ‘so it violates thermodynamics?’ ‘No it’s just people being shitty’ Argument. Super fucking done and not looking to have it again in literally every thread on left politics.

    Is there a way other than blocking users to stop seeing their bullshit?

      Logging off and touching grass.

      But this is the prevailing zeitgeist. You’re on Lemmy. Lemmy is online almost exclusively in western states. The Online West is a product of the western world. And the western world is rife with this ideology.

      You’re going to keep running into this shit for the same reason you’re going to keep finding yourself stuck in car traffic, sucking down air pollution, and surrounded by shitty fast food.
