It sure does but why do we have to bring up political topics (or rather: US politics) all the time? Whats the point in discussing politics (which are always regional) with people that dont even understand it or care (because I doubt you could give educated opinions on the politics of more than a handful of countries)...

And then people like OP feel entitled to generalize all of the people using Lemmy from all over the world as "Leftists" just because some peoole with certain political views cant stop pushing every debate into a political direction.

Liberals and leftists exist elsewhere outside America. There is nothing about the original post that yells exclusivity to America.

Everything has something to do with politics. People saying "stop shoving politics into everything" just don't like to he confronted with that fact, when some people are forced to confront that fact outside of political discourse every day. There are literally billions of people in poverty around the world due to the direct actions of some of the most powerful governments the world has ever seen. But you and a few people could not possibly even bear seeing a meme talking about Leftists and Liberals because that's too political hahaha what the fuck.

This post was for (quoting OP) "berating [his] ideological opponents because they are losers". Because, (quoting OP) "to be taken seriosly offline [they] would need to present well-researched [...]　arguments". So they do it on Lemmy.

In what world is this meme of any actual value? Generalizing Lemmy as leftist for their agenda, as was admitted in this case (what else could this meme be for?) is not in any way productive, is it?
