Jeff Tiedrich called Israel an apartheid state so hands off my favorite cringe lib

[–] Cowbee@hexbear.net 53 points 4 months ago (2 children)

He is the epitome of cringe liberals, how does he maintain such a perfect balance?

[–] fox@hexbear.net 31 points 4 months ago (2 children)

He's not a lanyard so he's at least nominally exposed to reality. Sits in the perfect Venn intersection of lanyard and normal guy

[–] Biggay@hexbear.net 14 points 4 months ago (1 children)

These are honestly the best type of liberal to talk politics with in real life

[–] Nakoichi@hexbear.net 12 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Yeah I'd chill with him and try to chip away at the inundated propaganda he swims in.

[–] trashxeos@lemmygrad.ml 10 points 4 months ago (1 children)

It was the type of liberal I was a few years ago. Then I came across Yugopnik and Second Thought, then Marx Madness and now I'm wishing I had better ability to sit and read for long periods because I have so many more books I need to read...keep working on the radlibs, some may be your next comrade!

It's like he was concocted in a wild Twilight Zone episode, haha

[–] RNAi@hexbear.net 16 points 4 months ago

He just really hates Trump (in lib way obviously, he posted the omnipresent dicksucking tweet when Trump got covid) and he's extremely cringe at humor

[–] RagingGingivitis@hexbear.net 24 points 4 months ago (2 children)

he also militantly supports trans rights. Jeff can hang.

[–] RNAi@hexbear.net 11 points 4 months ago (1 children)

"Can hang" is a positive slang statement? Weird

[–] Nakoichi@hexbear.net 15 points 4 months ago

Yeah it's context and tone dependent. This is like a shortened way of saying can hang out, like he might not be a revolutionary but he's fine enough for a lib to be at the communist house party type deal, even if we would constantly be ribbing him for said liberalism.

There are worse things to be than cringe, it's true

[–] ElGosso@hexbear.net 19 points 4 months ago

I hate him, I hate how much they spammed screenshots of his awful unfunny tweets all over reddit-logo
