We live in a world where name calling is considered intellectually suffiencent.

Reads CDC stats and realizes that Covid is NOT a doomsday plague, advocates for less restrictions to restore life -

Anti-masker, Conspiracy Theorist, Karen, Trumper, Murderer, Selfish, self absorbed, Narcissistic and reckless, anti-science, ect

This is what we resort to now. Name calling. It allows you to not have to think for yourselves, fuck that death rate, forget about the preexisting conditions, think of a name from the list and use it. Shit is getting old.

All this is true, but it's also true that we don't have the luxury of infinite time to elaborate extensively in descriptive detail about common problems and traits. Stereotypes and generalized labels serve a purpose, pejorative, accurate, or not. Shorthand is handy among the sheeple as well as the conspirophile analysts, old and new.

When someone goes out of his/her way to be a dick, call him what you like, block his username and move on. Too bad in real life we can't block usernames.

As it is, the block function is shit since you'll never know you're blocked unless they allege they'll do so.

Also, all dicks need more love - butt take care of that it yourselves. ;P

Ha. Good. I try to be polite to everyone and even try to have a calming effect when possible butt once in a while...well you understand. I've never seen you get triggered by anyone. I need to spend a bit less time on saidit and more time watching South Park. I need a trip to Tegrity Farms but it looks like January will be the earliest possible date I can get out of this dry country. Thanks for the soothing comments man.

I agree. Which is why I don't argue with others, no one wants to sit there listen to someone ramble off numbers. However, this has affected all of our lives. To me it's stranger to turn a blind eye to the thing that has tanked the economy and cost most people their homes.

Arguing or planting seeds? Plant seeds! Print out an article lay it in your friends house, do things that nudge them to question their belief system in ways in which they do not feel threatened that their world view is being attacked making them feel vulnerable and uncomfortable.

THE PROBLEM

We have the Psychosohere of insanity in nearly every home of the US. Persons have the time to sit down and watch state, corporate and Zionist broadcasted propaganda 4hrs every other day, and yet they cannot hear out another human being with a different opinion.

Trump said the media is the enemy of the people. He didn't mean it. He meant CNN and MSNBC. Trump says Fox and Friends is great, same with Newsy.

Trump has brought back media credibility on a monstrously partisan basis. Of course, all deliberate in its following of the cognitive infiltration thesis of Cass Sunstein.

The problem is the state and all of media is corrupt. It broadcasts PsyOps and propaganda every hour of the day.

The problem is the monopolization of the screen. It always has been.

The problem is the trees AND the forest and no one can see them because they've been in lockdown before Lockdown.

[–]JasonCarswellMental Orgy 1 insightful - 2 fun1 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 2 fun -  (0 children)

Yes!

Life's gotten too easy. If people started getting socked in the mouth for this shit, it'd stop quickly. Also white women shouldn't be allowed on social media.

[–]Jesus 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

Easy? Life is hard. And cool it with the censorship there.

[–]Tom_BombadilBombadildo 3 insightful - 2 fun3 insightful - 1 fun4 insightful - 2 fun -  (4 children)

Anti-masker, Conspiracy Theorist, Karen, Trumper, Murderer, Selfish, self absorbed, Narcissistic and reckless, anti-science, ect

Wait, what? :-/

[–]PencilPusher55[S] 3 insightful - 3 fun3 insightful - 2 fun4 insightful - 3 fun -  (3 children)

Yep. I've been called that. Didn't wear a mask into the store once and was told I was killing people.

[–]Tom_BombadilBombadildo 3 insightful - 2 fun3 insightful - 1 fun4 insightful - 2 fun -  (2 children)

They were brave to accuse a known killer...

[–]SaidOverRed 4 insightful - 1 fun4 insightful - 0 fun5 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

Deep down, the NPCs know it's just mindless propaganda. They have to... no one's that stupid.

[–]Tom_BombadilBombadildo 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

no one's that stupid.

We're talking about people who believe cloth facemasks help prevent the spread of deadly diseases.

This accusation hasn't happened to me yet, but I'd like to believe that I'll say something similar to the following...

Them: Blah blah blah blah not wearing your face mask blah blah murderer!

Me: Its the year 2020, and as long as Trump's the president MURDERERS DON'T HAVE TO WEAR FACEMASKS!!! MWAAAAAA! HAAA! HAAA!

I'm sure I'll probably forget to say this, but it would be a conversation starter.

Just respond with "I'm not a (what they called you) you're just a retard who can't think for themself.

[–]JasonCarswellMental Orgy 2 insightful - 2 fun2 insightful - 1 fun3 insightful - 2 fun -  (0 children)

Their labels don't define me. My labels define them for those who hear and believe me. All labels work better with evidence, citations, and proof.

[–][deleted] 3 insightful - 1 fun3 insightful - 0 fun4 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

Name calling is a last resort, not a thing to be encouraged. That's just me.

[–][deleted] 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

The problem often is that these labels mostly are misused. Because nobody has or takes the time anymore to derive an actual judgement which naturally takes time, effort and thought. Because it is way easier to rebark these labels MSM is feeding us 24/7 than actually either finding your own or even have the fortitude to come forward with them. And because people naturally are provoked by labels put on them or other people that they don't see them to fit. I would even suppose that the majority of clicks and so revenue is generated by this strategy. Many journalists imho today actually only are bullies with a big screen to put their opinions on. And the even more cheaper ones just copy it without any critique.

The only counter-tactic i can see is just don't look at or don't give a fuck about this and read a lot into sources that explicitely don't fit your own opinion.
