Hazo posted:Even LF started out as mostly insane libertarians and somehow devolved into far-left fakeposting, and they weren't earnestly calling for assassinations (except for those couple times...) and putting forth arguments that could be debunked with two minutes of Googling. LF peaked when Twisty had to explain to 2 Secret Service agents who showed up at his apartment what fakeposting is after they showed hima printout of the first reply to his John McCain assassination thread (because he deleted everything he wrote almost immediately after he posted it), which was a quote of his 2000 word post about why assassinating John McCain would be funny, followed by the reply "your gay" made by some retard with an avatar of an anthropomorphic barrel A Keg fucked around with this message at 05:46 on Aug 16, 2014 |

I thought LF peaked immediately before its annihilation at the hands of Lowtax for making him get up before noon to talk to another pair of secret service suits.

It's kind of flattering. The secret service looks at TPC and says "all we'd have to do is put an extra guard at the wheelchair ramps and keep an eye out for angry old guys on rascals with Gadsen flags." But when they saw LF, they were like "I don't know, better go and check"

tselatyjr posted:My reference to "both sides are just as bad" is more like "everyone is batshit crazy on both sides, which makes me like neither". I haven't ran a liberal community, so I don't know what sort of conversations might transpire against conservatives should they feel protected in the comfortable like-minded environment that TPC provides. However, in my experience with TPC, I will agree that some of the information spread and discussed can be difficult for me to understand the rational behind it, such as "Moochelle" and comparing the Obama's to apes. I never understood that level of racism. Many private internal debates about the nature of such content has been discussed to an exhausting length. The far left lunatic fringe doesn't have conversations against conservatives, they pretty much squabble about each other not being far left enough. More progressive than thou. While the far right fringe is posting "Moochelle" and advocating the death of the president, the far left fringe is doing this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ti7k_xOomXE In case you have trouble understanding what is going on, it is an argument between lesbians and transwomen (person born with a penis who believes they are female) about . . . uh, whether transwomen belong in lesbian safe spaces, I guess. It's still crazy, yeah. But it is a completely different kind of crazy.

There are plenty of idiots from staunch conservative homes who love fairies and dragons. Transexuals and intersexed people are about as far as you can go and still be talking about disadvantaged minorities that actually exist, rather than the realm of pure fantasy. Second wave feminists arguing with third wave feminists is pretty darn left wing.

Far-right conservatives live in a realm of pure fantasy. Don't see why far left shouldn't either. The left's pure fantasy tends to just be less about hurting people. Fake edit: As another example of the left's infighting, this very conversation.

As someone who is actually part of the "fringe" left, it's very wrong to claim the two fringes are similar because we're not. Conflicts within the left, especially the antifa movement, is often militancy vs. pacifism, using parliamentalism as a weapon against itself vs. boycotting it and pushing outside the field. The conflicts between second and third wave feminists are long gone and those who claim it still exists are conservatives and the far right who claim they're the "real" feminists who opposie LGBTQ-minorities and using it as a weapon against muslim immigration. That said, I do not live in the US. If this discussion is about the US left wing then I just have to say lol, good luck finding one.
