What is the best way to deal with liberals/SJWs?
NOTE: This doesn't apply to all liberals. I've met plenty of meaningful people so far who are educated, accomplished, yet aligned to the left. I still maintain strong relationships with many.
My problem is the average poor liberal - the 28 year old gas station/7-eleven cashier, working part time, earning barely enough money to get by, posts constantly on Reddit, assuming the persona of an easily-offended SJW. Just today I was getting shit online for being "racist" yet nothing I typed suggested racism, only frustration. Even after repeated attempts at calmly explaining to guy what "racism" actually entails, he comes back with a sad, 2 line response - something along the lines of "There are just as many good Black people as there are White or any other race. You're racist; whether you think it or not."
My blood was literally boiling at this point, but I saved myself the energy.
Luckily, this was online. But it begs the question - what is the best way to deal with these lowly, uneducated plebes?
just tell them:
"two genders, two terms, two scoops, two whomps"
and they will faint.
It pisses me off as well. Well knowing I will be hopefully working a job that I enjoy and not living pay check to pay check like those people will be makes me feel good.
This is why I never enter comment sections from posts about rich people, banking or money because it's filled with financially and economically illiterate people.
don't get into arguments in comment sections
pity them for their ignorance and ignore them
Dude, just ignore them. There's nothing you can possibly say to them that would be more of a punishment than just letting them continue to live their sad lives.
Send them a dick pic.
Sticks and stones man. It's a simple message but carries a lot of weight. The world is full of shitty people of all types and people are 10x shittier on the internet because they can hide in anonymity. But until these views actually start to affect your life, they are only words...not even in this case, just text on a screen from people who have zero influence on the world. And if you let it get to you all the time, you'll destroy yourself. So if you can A) not be an asshole to people (not saying you are) and B) Brush off everyone else who's an asshole to you, you're in a good position to live a happy life. As a liberal this is my approach to the right-wing version of what you're talking about.
On that note, as a liberal myself, 90% of people I know are liberal, and I only know a few that would fit the SJW profile (but even they are hard working and pay their own bills comfortably). Maybe it's because I fall into a higher educated demographic, or my friends and family don't typically wear their political beliefs on their sleeve. I have met people like what you're talking about so I don't deny their existence, but from my experience the SJW stereotype is a minority of liberals that perhaps can seem like a majority because they tend to be particularly vocal and are also often framed by the media as the profile of an average liberal. Again though, people are more likely to vent on the internet where it's safe for them, and I don't read reddit.
The ignorance about finance is real though, but I imagine this is the case about any professional field that people are only exposed to through movies and what they see on the news.
Thank you for sharing your experiences and insights, this response exceeded my expectations. Very helpful.
I agree; there are many educated liberals, but the SJWs, unfortunately, have tarnished the left's reputation online.
Indeed, they sometimes piss me off too. In general, I find it helps to judge people by face to face interactions over what we encounter on the internet. It certainly helps me maintain a better outlook on the world.
As I said in a similar thread recently, any attempt to have an intelligent conversation with these people will end up with them calling your a racist nazi so instead, I suggest you engage in counter-trolling by mimicking their language and saying things like:
-#cancelpoorpeople -oh man, it's kind of sick of much joy I get from being cruel to old illegal women -dumbass trans people marking up the internet with their opinions like dogs pissing on fire hydrants -I dare you to get on Wikipedia and play "Things people from shithole countries can definitely take credit for". It's really hard.
all of these have been approved by the New York times as appropriate btw. Enjoy!!
Uh? I find the upper class, college educated (normally humanities), white liberal women to be the worst.
They repeat non-stop whatever slogan they have been taught into college about ''the patriarchy'' or ''systematic oppression''. None of them ever did any serious work in life whatsoever. They live off parental connections yet demand and attribute themselves the right to speak for the oppressed underclass.
In my experience, there are 3 types of liberals: -those who feel genuine compassion for the poor. Those are generally fine. They chase utopias but they are alright -the envious ones, those who simply hate the rich. They are the ones pushing for instance discrimination against Asians in universities or anyone that does good, because it undermines their narrative that ''white people are keeping everyone down''. Those are crazy and dangerous. It's the type that in the Soviet Union killed millions -the upper class brainwashed ''communists who won't date anyone who doesn't make 6 figures''. Brainwashed and dumb. Will likely get exterminated by the category described right above if they ever take power.
I think I’m the best person to handle this question....
In all of my years slaying liberals, this is the most effective.
When a liberal starts talking, bring up a hand held mirror so that the liberal sees their reflection. The liberal will then notice his/her/xer skin color is white and as a liberal that is the biggest sin of all. They will then proceed to self destruct.
I've found that stepping over them on the sidewalk works best. Typically don't give them spare change since it just enables them.
The best way to deal with SJWs is to put yourself in such a position in life where you don't have to encounter them.
You have it backwards.
The problem is with rich liberals.
They are the hypocrites. The ones that shout for immigration, equality, and other nonsense while having a "not in my backyard mentality".
The poor liberals are genuine people working for a paycheck and simply want government assistance. All humans have a survival instinct.
Never punish human nature (poor liberals). Always punish (with death) hypocrites (rich liberals).
Very helpful, thanks for the clearer perspective.
Given the recent trend in liberal media, they will be dealing with you soon enough.
