Look at here and the people who complain about it being too hard to figure out are the ones complaining about "I can't use muh slurs, this is awful."

"The left of today is very much in favour of censorship to avoid “harm.” This makes those of us in the middle very wary of signing up to any partisan media." /u/decidedlysticky23

/u/misshapensteed claims he isn't far right, but explictly only posts on PoliticalCompassMemes and TheLeftCantMeme and KotakuInAction.

If they are too stupid to figure out we know they're lying, they're too stupid to figure out lemmy.

How can someone honestly claim to be “in the middle” when one side openly embraces Nazis, sexism, and other forms of bigotry? What’s the middle ground there?

There’s a difference between needing a safe space and not wanting to hang out with the KKK.

They only want to murder half of all trans people, not all?

I guess the other option is only half-murder all the trans people, but yeah; these compromise-always people need to take a second and actually THINK about what they're asking us to compromise on. They sound incredibly foolish and disconnected.

They know what they're asking for. They're aiming for plausible deniability.
