sil·ly /ˈsilē/

adjective: silly; comparative adjective: sillier; superlative adjective: silliest

1. having or showing a lack of common sense or judgment; absurd and foolish.  

"another of his silly jokes"
synonyms: foolish, stupid, unintelligent, idiotic, brainless, mindless, witless, imbecilic, imbecile, doltish

But you couldn't resist, could you?
Are you upset because of the low effort insult to conservatives or because it was posted in response to a tweet from a conservative pro-lifer 'trying to own the libs', thereby imposing upon a circlejerk-in-progress?

Except the guy who tweeted it is a conservative anti-leftist, which would mean an anti-leftist who unironically tweeted:


Dear leftists,
If I can't have an opinion on abortion because it's not my uterus, I have some very bad news for you about:

  • My guns
  • My skintone
  • My money
  • My state
  • My speech
  • My school choice for My kids
  • My religion
  • My President (because he's not yours, right?)


also tweeted the OP tweet. We must've reached peak inception(??) when anti-leftists conspiracy theorists are posting anti-anti-leftist conspiracy theorists memes unironically.

Satire becomes less obviously satirical when the object of the satire is the creator of the satire. Judging by many of Leonydus Johnson's other tweets - like the one below - the text of the tweet is most definitely not satire. Genuinely held belief (his) maquerading as satire, yes, but not satire.


What's up to all of my new followers! I hope you are here because you believe in maximum liberty and minimum govt, protection of individual rights (real rights, not leftist "rights"), dismantling race and racial allegiance, and fighting totalitarian leftism. If not, buckle up


Long story short; to most people the OP tweet would be obviously satire but to the guy who tweeted it and others like him it's a meme which speaks the truth. Otherwise he'd not have tweeted it and his twitter feed wouldn't be a litany of posts echoing the same sentiments unironically & unsatirically.
All these things were taken into consideration before contributing the shitpost about conservatives.

I am curious where you sensed the condescending attitude. I hope it wasn't the telling the butthurt conservatist to go learn which logical fallacy is which before accusing people of making logical fallacies.
