They don't make those distinctions anymore. It's all about being rich and fuckin' the poor.

Whats with the ableism though??? Completely unecessary and out of left field
So you're cool with the racism and antisemitism, but ableism is where you draw the line?
Autosomal monosomy is generally lethal.
Which part? Because he is a garden gnome and traditionally the ruling class has been fairly inbred over the centuries. Clearly the inbreeding and gnomes in the FBI prove the opposite.
I think it's pretty progressive of them to hire inbred garden gnomes.
The part where the OP equated having a missing chromosome with being mentally deficient.
And for the record, the only full monosomy in living people is Turner Syndrome, and it doesn't generally affect intelligence.
Its clearly a stab at people with trisomy. Being too stupid to know the actual reason is no excuse.
The person posting the comment may be an actual Nazi who is mad about the intermingling of races and religions 🤷♂️

The guy looks perpetually scared that MAGA is going to notice he isn't white.
Can't ever unsee this.
Neither can they, apparently.
I keep getting confused why Captain Kirk is so popular at the moment.
I think it's because of Charlie trekking across the universe.
missing chromosomes doesn't turn you evil
I think it's their physical appearance that is being referred to. Patel looks perpetually surprised and slightly off while Kirk looked like the witch doctor fucked up while shrinking his head.
That's ableism. These people don't look the way they do and don't act they way they do because of any genetic disorder. They also aren't going to fucking see this so the only people being insulted by this are people who are disabled, great job.
We're talking about actual fascists here and you guys are insulting with eugenics and appearance ffs.
Thank you for saying this. We have more than enough reason to shit on these assholes for their actions and rhetoric; there's absolutely no reason to use ableist language.
In a similar vein, I've seen a lot of "weaponized" homophobic language on Lemmy (often in regards to Putin and Trump). Like you say, the only people who get hurt by this are the random queer people who read these comments.
Yeah this is very apparent all over social media. It's the consequence of liberals who think disagreeing with the overt fascism seen in MAGA allows moral purity in their actions. They don't actually interrogate internalized values they hold from capitalism and settler-colonialism that devalues groups of people, they just know which groups are more or less "wrong" to target. They feel emboldened by a visible and decisive enemy, which makes them less self-conscious about the bigotry they foster uncritically.
👏👏👏 I am so sick and tired of people claiming "the gloves are coming off" and by "gloves" they mean their slurfilter

The appeal to the manosphere is real.
There's a book I've been meaning to read: Uncivil Agreement by Lilliana Mason.
I've heard it's about how most people should be voting in alignment with their policy beliefs, but when you look at it ... more people vote along with how they choose to be identified with even if it hurts them.

You’re using one flavor of bigotry to disparage another flavor of bigots?
Too many people like this unfortunately. I respect the ones who learn when pointed out and stop. The ones who double down are the worst.
On one hand, yeah, not cool.
On the other, it's the kind of shot that just might land in the fanbase of these wankstains. It attacks and smears them in terms their supporters understand. Just pointing out the hypocrisy doesn't work if the audience doesn't care for reasonable argument, but by speaking their language, there's some chance it will get under their skin.
It's a disgusting move in a disgusting fight. There are no winners here, and the best I can hope for is that it'll hit the right people harder than the collateral damage hits the wrong ones.
Dude, Nazis aren't going to be convinced to stop being a Nazi just because you also start acting like a Nazi. That's actually one of their objectives.
Why is insulting and getting under their skin so important? Is trolling them gonna change their mind? Are minorities literally less important than trying to make fascists feel insulted?
It's not, it's not and they're not.
On a strategic level, there may be some merit to the hope of splitting them and turning them against each other. Their ideology builds on appearance of strength and masculinity, and any political movement hinges on unity. Getting under their skin about their prominent figures might weaken their support.
There is also a slim chance that pointing out the nonsense might break someone out of their cognitive dissonance (like it did with me), but I'll concede it's very slim indeed.
Even with all this, the question "how much collateral damage is it worth?" is a tough one. I would hope that them wasting their time and energy on each other might spare others some of their wrath, but it's impossible to measure and hard to gauge the net effect on hurt dealt to the undeserving.
So no, just the insult wouldn't be worth it. The potential strategic effects turn it into a weapon, but just like with physical weapons, it would be better if it never saw use. The ends may offset some of the hurt, but we shouldn't think of it in terms of justification so much as mitigation.
And the last line is just superfluous, hurtful without any redeeming quality at all. Fuck that shit.
Oh i was talking about the last line only. Which is also the title of the post
Ableism. What a funny joke dude. Could you explain what specifically they're referring to about missing chromosomes that would make someone a fascist?

We have the watch? Is that supposed to be a Game of Thrones reference?
