People are religiously and/or ethnically Jewish. Republicans are a political party (are you implying being a Republican is a religion or an ethnic group??) Seeing Jewish people as greedy is a stereotype based on racism. Republicans vote for policies and platforms that are bigoted. This is crazy that you think these two things are the same, or are even comparable at all.

My partner passes as a straight cis white dude and works in finance and you are right, within the first interaction of meeting a bigot they will open their mouths and out themselves. And the worst part is, they nearly always phrase it as an in-joke, or an in-thing, like they are figuratively 'wink wink nudge nudging' him and it drives him fucking crazy that they just assume he's one of them and will nod or laugh along. Instead, he pulls a reverse uno and shames them, very politely, for various super neutral reasons: like not being professional and staying on topic, or for being a hr violation, etc. He's found the less progressive, more business-neutral language really fucks them up, they get super embarrassed
Some republicans think they are good people. There, fixed it for ya
I wonder if that person ever regretted talking him out of it
Really? Are there other major instances that do?
I have been living by this philosophy for a while and I'm not going back. I try to only discuss movies I've already seen with the people in my life, I don't watch trailers, and I don't read reviews (at least until I've seen it). It's really nice, I feel like I enjoy the experience more this way
that removed forehead fucking me up rn
removed? lol
Lemmy was founded by leftists, why are you surprised it skews left. Maybe you should join exploding heads
People have to censor their curse words in images now on facebook, trust me the zuck is not far behind the muck
Yeah this account is mad suspicious. !loveforlandlords ? !kiwifarms (but not that one, they swear) and then you've got !hate where the first and only post uses the r slur twice. And one of the accounts that mods this community has already had their account shut down and banned.
I'm of two minds; in context these are great. Like the last one (the shining one) I've seen pop up in both autism groups and surviving narcissistic parents groups, and it makes sense there. Both of those groups of people have had people in their lives try to diminish them, and make them fit into other peoples needs and expectations. And a friend of mine in recovery posted that exact 'place you wanted to be' one. So in the right setting these work. But sharing them on linkedin erases the context and makes these seem more like the toxic positivity slogans you see the fitness gurus flood you with. So I think the real cringe lies with the original poster (not you, lemmy poster, you're good 👍)
And don't forget his creepy twitter account where he roleplays as his son, who is a toddler 👀
