ULS, in There's some kind of use for this lighter I can't put my finger on...

For when you pack your weed microdose in a special 2 inch deep bowl.

This is just “both sides are equally wrong/bad.”

WhiteHawk,

Idk about equally, but often enough, both sides are indeed wrong.

Holzkohlen,

“Enlightened centrists”. I make fun of you people constantly.

Xer0,

Nothing wrong with accepting that both sides of anything have good and bad shit going on. I couldn’t imagine just blindly following one side 100% even when they can also do questionable stuff.

Sure, but the problem is that rather than arguing the finer points of how to combat climate change, for example, we have to argue about whether truth is truth.

WhiteHawk,

Yes, because you’re so blinded by your indoctrination that you can’t accept the flaws of “your” side.

ImFresh3x, (edited )

“Climate change exists”

“Religion shouldn’t allow governments to prevent basic healthcare needs”

“January 6 was a failed insurrection”

These are the things that the right calls indoctrination.

And the hard left calls not important enough to bother voting.

WhiteHawk,

I’m not sure what you’re trying to say here

Aabbcc,

There are leftists that get things wrong

teichflamme,

It makes you look stupid tho

SuperSaiyanSwag,

Maybe I’m too naive, but I didn’t think they were referring to just politics. They were just referring to two people arguing.

You know, I think you’re right. I’m so used to the phrase “both sides” meaning a specific thing it didn’t register as anything else. If it had been phrased “both sides of an argument” I would have understood.

Does it normally refer to politics? Maybe for Americans, and they are responsible for a good deal of the English language content online. Right, and the 2 party system…

I’m with you, though, both sides means both sides of an argument. I think the news had something on that a while back- for every climate scientist they interviewed, they had to also interview a climate denier to present a “fair and balanced” view XD

some_guy, in Calm

This is my favorite today.

Did you pull this meme out of 1957?

chuckleslord, in We are doing again?

Is this loss?

Xeroxchasechase, in Cause friendships never end!

And vote!

therealjcdenton,

Im actively going to become your enemy

Xeroxchasechase,

Yeah, you should. Become the enemy of everyone!

TheBlue22, in Official history of the world

Back in my day we worked 28 hours a day and didnt complain!!

(They put cocaine in coca cola and lead in the water)

lars,

And the… non-WASPs knew their place. They loved it too in fact!

(I’m paraphrasing some actual things that actual people have actually said about the good old days (but I can’t remember their actual euphemisms (dysphemisms) for non-WASPs))

AngryCommieKender,

The ones I grew up around called them heathens.

lars,

It never occurred to me that I should be grateful to have heard “heathen” used only by history professors and sarcasts.

lars,

…and could afford houses and food

lars,

But now I sound like I’m wearing the same rose-tinted glasses as the folks I was making fun of

potpie,

… as long as they were white.

Valmond, in politically bipolar meme feeds yo

I usually liked to loosely follow the USA election cycle (and consequential debacles) but since a couple of years I have made several popcorn overdoses.

miridius, in True

Pretty sure there are more posts complaining about oil memes than actual oil memes

eezeebee, in Cuba no iphone

Valmond, in Americans: Are we the baddies?

Well yes, but no.jpg

corsicanguppy, in One of my back teeth is aching at the moment

Canada just released its timetable to phase routine maintenance dental care into a consolidated health plan.

It’s starting small, but if our Republican wanna-bes don’t kill it we could have universal coverage and equal access to dental care regardless of economic station.

chiliedogg,

It’s crazy that teeth and eyes are separate from the rest of healthcare.

PersnickityPenguin,

And ears. And prescription drugs (Medicare).

RustyShackleford,

Everyone deserves free healthcare and dental, I pray you get to see that dream.

Tavarin,
@Tavarin@lemmy.ca avatar

The provincial conservatives where I live are trying their best to destroy that universal healthcare. It’s rather infuriating.

RustyShackleford,

I bet, I’m just glad to see areas of the world have it. Gives a little hope to some of us in the states.

Hopefully the conservatives in your area aren’t the majority.

Tavarin,
@Tavarin@lemmy.ca avatar

They won 60% of the seats in parliament with only 40% of the voted. I fucking hate first past the post elections.

Zulu, in We are doing again?

The stones will cry nut was how i read it at first and it got a laugh from me
