    It’s wild that y’all get triggered by content warnings tbh. Not gonna say anything about the cw posted, but you never know what may be an actual trigger for someone and it doesn’t really hurt to post content with one to be considerate. Maybe this poster knows someone who experiences a severe revulsion to images of processed meat products and they take care to be sensitive to that.

            Spinach is inherently associated with Popeye, an old cartoon depicting toxic masculinity and abuse against women.

      First, it’s a burger.

      Second, these people are tankies. They regularly celebrate massacres, genocides and terrorism, with many calls to enact more violence. They want to overthrow the system in a violent upheaval and kill everyone who disobeys.

      The funny thing is that they need trigger warnings for mundane things like meat. How will they revolt if they are so delicate and soft that meat triggers them?

      Do you see the point now?

        I get it, but y’all are being weird. Why not focus your criticisms on their primary values instead of valid beliefs/displays of compassion and empathy like this. Your values and communication style is just as tribal and incendiary. Your faux armchair machismo comes off just as pathetically as theirs does.

          You do not see the point–alright.

          Go and look at some of the top posts this past month or so. We cover plenty of their primary values, such as celebrating massacres and genocides and actively calling for the death of innocents en masse. Nor are they empathic, no one who celebrates murder has empathy. This ‘compassion’ is purely virtue signalling and a sign of how pampered and high-class they are.

          Why aren’t you commenting about any of the above? It’s rather odd.

            Oh idk, Maybe it’s because the post is just making fun of content warnings and I’m someone that appreciates and uses them.

              It’s not making fun of content warnings. It’s making fun that these extremists need to use them. I even explained this in the first comment.

      The vegans in their community asked for this CW. It makes sense to me, I get repulsed by seeing meat knowing what was done to the animals to get the meat. It’s like seeing a gory image, especially if you’ve seen what happens in a vegan documentary or something before. The people in this thread are being very weird, if I had to guess they lean conservative.

        This community is very diverse with its users views. We have some conservatives, some communists, liberals, anarchists, etc.

        Regardless, the point is going over your head. The people who regularly call for violence, post violent imagery, and celebrate violent people need content warnings.

        Do you not see the joke in that?

        Yeah a lot of bad faith arguing against me. They think it is okay to bash on reasonable beliefs/actions as long as they are committed by someone who has other, more extreme, beliefs. But it’s not okay, attack the bad views, not the good ones. This lemmy instance is definitely filled with a lot of these weird types.

          A lot of bad-faith arguing? Only I’m arguing with you. How am I arguing in bad faith while explaining what this post means while also asking for your opinions?
