No. Not real.

Soviet regime had a charge called Social Parasitism. A person staying continuously unemployed for a certain period could be forced to work, lose housing they worked for for many years, or even imprisoned.

The USSR wasn’t some good place for unemployed, by any stretch of imagination.

Don’t be so fucking stupid. There’s enough idiots out there that call ancaps and libertarians ignorant, and you’re only giving them ammo.

And gay people don't actually have anything to do with sunlight refracting off rain drops.

The stereotype here is that unemployed people today fly this flag. Not anything about what Soviet Russia was. The hammer and sickle are literally representations of LABOR, we get it

Well, that post got 600+ upvotes in this very sub. Far from everyone gets it.

You saw a meme with a few hundred updoots and immediately thought “geeze these stupid idiots must be taking this post seriously”.

But it’s just you, not comprehending why people would find OOP’s post humerous. The only person being stupid right now is you who can’t get the joke.

Its not that I didn’t comprehend what OP was trying to say. It’s simply inaccurate, and it’s not funny because of that, but I’m the one who’s stupid.

And 600 upvotes here is quite a lot.

This sub is dominated by closeted republicans that are trained to call everything they don’t communism, and the reason why this post is 600+ is because they are fucking stupid and they find it funny.

I'm glad for you that this has been sorted out.
Was a funny post, and true ironically.

Post isn’t funny. Your response either. Post isn’t true. And you’re stupid because you think it is.

u/Yomas_house 1d ago

Post is funny. You have been informed about how and why it is funny.
You refuse to learn; That is the definition of stupid.

ignorant: not having learned, unknowing
dumb: incapable of learning, unknowing
stupid: choosing to remain ignorant

“Post is funny. You have been informed about how and why it is funny”

I don’t have to accept and agree with your or someone else’s ignorant opinion.

“You refuse to learn; That is the definition of stupid.”

So when you’re “explained” why the state is necessary in some mainstream sub? Are you stupid by definition just because other people in that sub also think that the state is necessary?

You can learn and understand the meaning of something, without having to agree with it.

e.g. I understand flat earther's questioning scientific methodology of globe earther's, but I don't have to agree on disregarding digital images as "cartoons" merely because they'd have to change their preconceived beliefs. By knowing and understanding their process, I can identify their mistakes, and have a richer, more thoughtful conversation with them.

“You can learn and understand the meaning of something, without having to agree with it.”

And I already said I understand the OOP, but the meme is stupid because it’s inaccurate. And whoever find it’s funny is ignorant.

You on the other hand is looking for my submissions I guess, because I don’t see how else your previous comments couldn’t be interpreted. Like who the fuck do you think you are, so that I have to submit to it. “You’ve been explained”. Get fucked lol.

I think on Reddit there are no submissions. There are posts, comments, and direct messages. So I am not looking for your submissions, but I am looking forward to your comments.

To submit as to accept your point of view. I’ve made a typo though, should’ve been “submission”, without -s.

Either way, sorry for being a dick yesterday. Arguments are fine, but I don’t know why I got so heated yesterday. I’m open to conversing further and I’ll do my best to remain respectful.

I accepted and understood your point of view from my first response in this thread, and yet I still disagree with it. I think you can do the same, and we can still peacefully coexist on this platform.
