I got banned for saying “Luigi did nothing wrong” but I also stand by the fact that Luigi will do no wrong. There’s a little Luigi at all of us.
Welcome to Lemmy mate! I left Reddit after the purge of 3rd party apps. It’s been great. The more people here. The more content.
I highly recommend that when you view All, you filter to"Hot" posts. It updates with everything that’s recently been added.
Referring to people as vermin is strongly associated with Nazis and their ilk. This looks exactly like the dehumanizing propaganda produced by fascists.
Fight fire with fire?
Becoming a monster to defeat a monster doesn’t get rid of monsters.
False equivalence.
“Fire” is a bit antiquated as a synonym for “cool” but some people do still say that Elon is fire.
Well, at least your username is accurate.
Lemmy’s reading comprehension was the reason I changed it a few months ago. It is perfectly accurate.
It’s exhausting, having to spell everything out despite my sentiment being the most common one here. Particularly here. In this specific community.
Spoonfeeding irony to others kills me. And yes, I’m upset
I genuinely saw Dr. Evil on the end at first glance.
Welcome home, glad you left the dumpster
Reddit just keeps getting worse, I got banned from r/comics for calling out pizzacake doing bkackface lol.
No no; make it a UnitedHealthCare ad and it says to call an adjuster
Not to defend reddit but you kinda… called for the killing of government officials?
Yeah… People are gonna be real shocked at how fast the Lemmy instances run by individuals in basements remove stuff and ban people after getting a letter.
Put some ivermectin on these parasite.
Calls for death to government officials of his own country. Gets banned.
What did you expect?
In OP’s defence, the depicted people would totally see themselves as exterminators of “vermin”. Drain the swamp and all this crap.

OP just wants a witch hunt - he wants to murder people he doesn’t like and feel good about it. Sick fuck, the worst kind.
Here’s a video of him saying it.
Trump pledged at a November rally in New Hampshire that he would “root out the communists, Marxists, fascists and the radical left thugs that live like vermin within the confines of our country.”
Those comments drew rebukes from congressional Democrats and some moderate Republicans. Some historians have traced the use of the word “vermin” to Hitler and Italy’s Benito Mussolini.
Political historians say the use of dehumanizing rhetoric - including words like “vermin” - makes it easier to strip away rights from residents and citizens as they are seen as less worthy of democratic or constitutional protections. Nazis, for instance, frequently referred to Jews as lice, rats and vermin.
The Trump campaign has dismissed those comparisons.
