It’s lemmygrad, we’re the spectre. I’d bet at least half of the other instances out there block us, there’s only like 300 dedicated users on this instance, and they still can’t stop complaining about lemmygrad/tankies

They'll ask for specific evidence, then when presented with it, find some excuse to ignore it, like tone policing or attacking a source for being "illegitimate" or "biased" without even reading it.

I've been playing with dropping non-sequitor ridiculous links as "sources" in sincere comments, and I have pretty solid proof that liberals arguing on the internet almost universally do not click the links for sources.

I've done it quite a bit, and the only people who acknowledge or comment on it are comrades from here.

    Oof, if I had a dollar each time I've linked something only for the lib to say "I'm not reading/watching that.", I would be wealthy enough to be a member of the bourgeoisie.

    Can you really blame them though? Liberal media is just verbal diarrhea in written form. I don't remember the exact point in time where I started reading leftist news, but I'm sure there was a Jacobin article or something in there that I read and actually felt like I got something out of it.
