    The right wing manchildren who listens to sloptubers doesn’t even read text.

    Like for example part of derdra plot subtext is that the empire is patriarchial hell , like shes essentially treated by her male colleagues as a “diversity hire” , despite being the only competent one, but because its not directly said the chud right wing slop machine doesnt get outraged by this.

        I would unironically just keep the insults simple and simply keep calling them stupid over and over.

        I want the left to hold the title of the “super rationalist skeptics” the right enjoyed in the mid 2010s. Yes, I understand we will alienate a lot of young men, but I can see this attracting nerdier, smarter young men who feel isolated in society.

            It was kind of nice seeing their smug grin wiped off their face and them trying to clumsily play it cool for like a week. Of course, calling republicans weird WoUlD aLiEnAtE tHe WoRkInG cLaSs so it was quickly abandoned.

          I think a lot of ground can be gained by being nü-atheists but for the empire instead of religion. Liberals will say “colonialism, imperialism, neo liberalism” this and that, using all the right words, so why are you trying to save that shit by voting for Democrats?

          Liberals respond better to smugness than bullying. Just lord it over them and wait a few months to be right about something (as always). To well-meaning libs, don’t be mean, just have the “that’s ridiculous, fundie, but you’ll figure it out, bless your heart” attitude and it’ll work itself out.

    Literally none of this whining in any context of star wars makes any sense. Motherfucker, this is a universe where a giant slug executes its enemies by feeding them to a thousand year old venus flytrap.

      “You know what isn’t believable in my setting with faster than light travel, laser guns, mind control, shape shifters, hover cars, aliens, and laser swords that exists in a galaxy thousands of years ago separate from ours with separate evolution histories? Humans living on different planets have different skin colors!”

      Back before woke, this was pretty common. Then Biden became president and you stopped seeing giant slugs feed their enemies to thousand year-old venus flytraps.

    The dude who wrote an interracial lesbian couple as 2 of the hardest and most dedicated revolutionaries is supposed to be anti dei?
