Why do right wingers use lemmy? Genuine question... why here of all places?
You know we can see your comment history, right?
You may not like Trump or Elon, but your views are as regressively right-wing as you can get.
Your comment history is such a fascinating car wreck of incredibly regressive views that I had to stop reading or I would be getting screenshots all day.
Found the fascist bot
There was never a pure meritocracy to begin with, that’s what DEI tries to correct.
Hey Ivan, enlist in the Russian infantry and join your comrades on the front. Don't worry, the NATO tungsten will be there to greet your worthless ass.
Shooting down passenger planes isn't beating NATO
Why do we need competitiveness among minorities when they're already at a disadvantage? The competitiveness should be equal between minorities and majorities, otherwise it's not a meritocracy, it's just oppression.
Edit to add: the disadvantage I'm referring to is bigoted hiring practices that are well documented, and a history of oppression.
It seems like you don't understand what it is you're arguing against so much
It's astonishing how much BS racists are willing to accept, just because it validates their worldview. Watch, next they'll be going on about how DEI policies are ackchyually racist against white people because blah blah blah willful ignorance.
Aww man... it hurts a little to see how far standards have fallen. You're better than this. Doubling down on obvious bait with obvious bait doesn't mean you're not taking it nor are you cleverly subverting any expectations by just... doing what the intial comment said you'd do. Right now you just look like a sad NPC, and you should really have a little more self respect because you do show some potential.
Ah yes, quoting Rorschach. Such a heroic person to want to emulate.
It's a better attempt sure, but it's mainly still just doubling down. Points though, embracing and then extending criticism to signal that you consider it beneath you (or that it's so absurd as to be worthy of satire) is a classic move for a reason, ya racist little scamp.
Oh, you're doubling down. Again. Dude, I pointed out your racism like six hours ago. Just... just stop. This is embarrassing to watch. You know you're better than this.
Or maybe you're just not very good at this...
Are you really doing this? Is this really how you're trying to distract yourself? Have some self respect, come on. If not for the fact you're a racist, then at least because you're capable of being a much better troll than this.
Do... you mean Lorenzian? Lorentz was the physicist, Lorenz was the behavioral psychologist.
I'll be honest, it's a little hard to take your conviction to this holy crusade against the oh-so-predictable masses seriously when you can't even get the name right. Like I get it, I'm harping on what may have been a typo and that's possibly below the belt, but you gotta see how that looks. The superiority falls flat when you couch it in terms you have a surface level understanding of.
Edit: womp womp. <3 mods.
Is spelling and grammar important in your meritocracy? Because your English sucks troll. Signed, a brown person.
