I’m confused. By all accounts Jerry and the entire cast came together to point out their hate for Trump and Republicans. But because he doesn’t agree with one issue he’s been labeled as a right winger?
I’m so far left that young leftists think I’m too extreme, to the point where they call be right wing for disagreeing with every tiny thing they say. The young left have become the keepers of “right/wrong think”
Edit: a lot of young people who call themselves left, are doing everything possible to push people away from the left, instead of making them allies.
You’re not paying attention. I’ve seen him called right wing quite a few times outside of Lemmy, different forums etc. Also lots of articles out there essentially calling him the new right wing mouthpiece.
I’m so sorry to inform you of this, but in the year of our Zord 2024, we are no longer accepting “one of the ten billion apes, bots, advertising agencies, liars, and trolls who are screaming into the Internet at all times said something I disagree with” as a valid source of outrage, controversy, or secondhand conversation.
Please understand that this is not personal, nor is it a judgement on your specific opinion. We would recommend addressing the comment you disagree with directly at its source, if you feel you must address it at all.
The “one issue” happens to be supporting a genocide, so it’s kind of a big one? I haven’t seen anyone calling him right-wing, but you can bet if cops were firing rubber bullets at peaceful student protesters under a republican administration, every lefty from NY to LA would be wringing their hands and crying “fascism”. The times they are a-changing my friend. It’s not just about left or right, and I’m glad these kids understand that.
And the dude openly dated a minor when he was nearly 40,
"Shoshanna is a person, not an age. She is extremely bright. She’s funny, sharp, very alert. We just get along. You can hear the click.”
You might not have noticed, but young adults aren’t big Chapelle fans these days either. The whole transphobia thing doesn’t play so well with the under-40s.
I’m sure you love strawmen, you get to burn down someone whose opinion deviates from yours even a little. We used to call it “wrong think” when we were actually fighting for people’s rights and not just being arrogant assholes, pushing everyone away from the left.
Must be true Insaan said it. If you only knew. I didn’t grow up in Western comfort like you, I’ve washed brains off my sidewalk after guerrilla offensives into my town. I’m a native of this continent, not some colonizer remnant. I’ve seen your western brutality and the hypocrisy and patriarchal bullshit that comes with it. All you do is talk on the internet but you don’t actually do Jack shit about anything. Grab your guns and travel to Gaza, that would be a start
I’ve always found the left more annoying than the right. The right are wrong, but the left are self-righteous smug dickheads. Liberals are like a chimera of both and I think that’s why I hate them more than the right even though they’re objectively less bad. That’s my shitty analysis anyway.
I’m pro-trans, but I’m not pro-trans people in women’s sports. This makes me a anti-trans nazi in the vast majority of leftie/progressivist people’s eyes, who clearly is a closeted Trump supporter. It’s the whole ‘we must be intolerant of intertolerance’ type fo thing… but they’ve twist it to ‘we must be intolerant of any disagreement whatsoever with our unrealistic ideological agenda that has no basis in a factual reality’.
There is no allowance for variance of reasonable opinion or an objective reality. You are with us, or against us, and therefore the enemy.
Lefties and young folks who are left leaning tend to be as braindead and lockstep as the Trumpers they claim to hate.
My opinion on trans athletes is that I lack the qualifications to have an opinion. What happens to the human body during transition should be pretty well-documented by now, though. I’m sure if there’s any real problem, the doctors who work in gender-affirming care would be pretty vocal about it.
Uh, calm down mate. Maybe you think you’re replying to somebody else? A doctor making their living from providing transgender healthcare is absolutely a biased party, as is any researcher choosing to focus on this topic. That’s reflexivity, it’s quite important to acknowledge.
You would definitely need to acknowledge a physicist’s bias towards the theory they have chosen to research. That’s absolutely a thing! I’m not saying anything controversial here. I don’t even like sociology very much, reflexivity is boring and over-emphasised but it’s a legitimate issue, and it’s a big issue in transgender medicine. Which people are very keen to point out when the research doesn’t agree with their own position.

Can you point out where anyone labeled him as a “right winger?”
Your comment is a complete false dichotomy based solely off a strawman argument.
You’re not paying attention. I’ve seen him called right wing quite a few times outside of Lemmy, different forums etc. Also lots of articles out there essentially calling him the new right wing mouthpiece.
All you gotta do is Google

Damn. This is a great response!

Chappelle has said far worse things about every other race than Richards did about black people that night, but as we know that somehow doesn’t count
You might not have noticed, but young adults aren’t big Chapelle fans these days either. The whole transphobia thing doesn’t play so well with the under-40s.
And Chapelle’s comedy is cringe and awful, and completely unrelated to the topic at-hand. Nice strawman.

“Even a little”. You fall off a cliff if you move slightly in the wrong direction, “Even a little”.
So you admit that budging is wrong think.
Only if it’s about issues like genocide. “A sprinkle of genocide is fine” is what psychos think like.
But what about another situation no-one is talking about!
Sure this applies only if you also think that Chappelle should also be tarred and feathered. But you’re here wanting to forgive both of them.

“”“One issue”“”
Which is supporting a genocide.
Also he’s recently joined the whole “woke has ruined comedy” bit. Which is very much right wing.
Oh and he’s also a predator that dated a teenager when he was in his 30s.
Sure you are, champ.
You’re so close to a moment of self-awareness, and yet so far.
Kid I’ve been left since before you were nothing but ball juice
You’re 40, you’re a child in both in age and mentality.

It’s just the rise of loud, groupthink edgelords, refusing to think past a hyper-emotional brainwash.
Opposing a genocide and those who support it makes you a hyper-emotional edgelord? That’s quite the edgelord take on the subject.
That’s how it works these days.

I think I’ve spotted their issue with you.
My opinion on trans athletes is that I lack the qualifications to have an opinion. What happens to the human body during transition should be pretty well-documented by now, though. I’m sure if there’s any real problem, the doctors who work in gender-affirming care would be pretty vocal about it.
They’re biased, though. I don’t assign a moral value to that, I mean sociologically.
Fucking lol
The doctors who research this stuff for a living are biased
Science is biased
Reality is biased
You’re a regressive who hates that reality disagrees with you and would prefer to live in a fantasy world of your own making
Uh, calm down mate. Maybe you think you’re replying to somebody else? A doctor making their living from providing transgender healthcare is absolutely a biased party, as is any researcher choosing to focus on this topic. That’s reflexivity, it’s quite important to acknowledge.
Buddy that’s like saying you won’t listen to physicists about gravity because they’re biased
Researching and reporting on scientific realities isn’t bias
It’s stating the truth
You would definitely need to acknowledge a physicist’s bias towards the theory they have chosen to research. That’s absolutely a thing! I’m not saying anything controversial here. I don’t even like sociology very much, reflexivity is boring and over-emphasised but it’s a legitimate issue, and it’s a big issue in transgender medicine.

Fucking lol
Chud
Just admit you hate science and want to live in a fantasy world where reality agrees with you 🤷🏻♀️
TubularTittyFrog seems like as good as any to block.
How often did you watch women’s sports before you became aware of the controversial issue of trans women competing in them?
If you’re “pro-trans” then that means you believe that, for example, a trans woman is a woman, because she says she is.
So then you don’t believe women should compete in women’s sports?
…
Showing your ass there, huh?
Annoying aren’t they.
