    If you left your ultra-white, ultra-left, and ultra-woke political echo chambers you’d learn that the terms dick-sucking and dick-riding comes from AAVE and is used frequently by the Black-American community. AAVE slang tends to mock the actions described in the insults and not those performing them.

    I know all this because i actually interact with humans in the real world. I don’t sit at my desk all day, arguing about fuck all on the internet while extending my cultural and moral values to individuals on the internet like Americans who don’t know that words like “cunt” and “f*ggot” have meanings not tied to negative connotations outside the US do. This nuance is typically lost on the left and is why i identify as centrist nowadays.

      could have fooled me, also really funny that you claim to be non-american yet are really invested in spreading African American vernacular to Americans/online? You just sound like a chud who wants to say slurs - liberals will tolerate that shit as long as you’re anti-communist.

      wow, shocking, nobody could have predicted this.

        Lmao, go off then. It doesn’t change that fact that the African-Americans are the reasons these words are so widespread. Everyone uses them!

          It’s super easy, and I tend to find the funniest content that way. For example any time some lemmitor is crying woe about authoritarians censoring them, it’s almost 100% of the time that they’ve just been spewing vile shit and redbaiting gets them sympathy.

          I have a handy little button right inline with comments that brings all the history up for the user directly from whatever comment they happen to be making.

              I have some bangers, it’s true

              Here’s me getting censored for saying a .world mod was being pedantic

              CW: removed .world comment

              spoiler

              this was apparently a rule 1 violation for some reason:

                Lmao that you added a content warning there🤣. That should’ve gone on !yepowertrippinbastards@lemmy.dbzer0.com

                You know, the beautiful thing about being centrist is that i come under fire from both sides of the political spectrum so at least there’s some solidarity between me and you there - assuming you believe liberals to be on the left.

                  I CW it because it’s a moderated .world comment I’m reposting to .world in a different context, just being courteous to the mods here.

                  Liberalism is a center-right wing ideology, that’s why so many communists and anarchists have issues with liberals and will call liberals (for example social democrats) the left wing of fascism.

                    I much prefer the sarcastic interpretation more

                    You know we could go on another argument spree about why this is or isn’t the case, but I’m not in that spirit today. Have. Have a good day.
