Oh, it's not a matter of opinions; I just can't stand Hexbear's ugly emojis polluting my screen.

There's also them assuming that anyone disagreeing with them must be a pro-murica propaganda-guzzling librul, as well as contrarianly shilling for anything that is anti-DaWestβ„’ (or was once communist, if we take some liberties with the term), but that's far less important πŸ€“

Our emojis are good. Talk to your instance admins about the fact that they are too big for you.

And I mean, if you're repeating western propaganda and ignoring us when we disprove it with thought terminating cliches, what else are we supposed to assume exactly?

ETA: Also "it isnt about opinions [excuse that isn't opinions]" but then you start complaining about opinions. SOUNDS like the second part is what you're really mad about.

  1. You're still spamming them too much to my taste. Don't care about the size.

  2. I don't.

  3. Glad that you at least half-understood that I "hid" my true reasons behind a bit of irony (I really can't stand your emojis though).

I don't.

Then why are you annoyed at seeing us do it to others when they are doing that?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I don't see the use of snarky remarks as any better. Nor the repeating of your own flavor of propaganda, quite honestly. What can I tell you, the enemy of my enemy isn't automatically my friend, although I may share their expressed values...

Nor the repeating of your own flavor of propaganda

There you go with your "I hate seeing evidence that I've been lied to about foreign affairs" again

So... It's Lemmy's problem for not exposing control over emoji size? Sounds like a feature that should be pretty easy to add.

We know where you get your opinions because they are the opinions being repeated to us the same as you. When your distended belly shoots propaganda past your lips when you speak, there's no real use in claiming that you didn't guzzle it beforehand. The only difference is that we recognize it for what it is because unlike you we've bothered to look at sources outside of the western consent manufacturing bubble.

When liberals disagree with leftists, they start acting exactly like the reactionaries they pretend they're not aligned with. "Anyone who disagrees with them MUST be a racist" says the conservative after being called on racism.

There's also them assuming that anyone disagreeing with them must be a pro-murica propaganda-guzzling librul

Says the liberal after being called on being a western chauvinist.

It's funny that you must mention reactionaries and conservatives since you folks sound just like the cesspool that is exploding-heads. Just more numerous and organized (smarter has yet to be proven, since you fail just as much to hide your bile behind a veneer of respectability).

It's funny that
