I don’t get it
On the left is soyak (soyboy wojak): https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/soy-boy-face-soyjak
I Fucking Love Science was a Facebook page that posted pop-sci articles.
On the right is Ted Kaczynski AKA the Unabomber: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ted_Kaczynski
Whoops, thank you
I recognize that’s a police sketch artist depiction, so probably not ideal lol.
Thats the unibomber specifically. His manifesto is probably the punchline hinted here since it was very against the modern world.
The amount of people who would probably agree with the manifesto on Lemmy is probably higher than people expect.
The leftists who agree with the unabombers manifesto are the ones who haven’t read it and have only heard he was anti technology. If you read it you’ll see he was a right wing nutjob who was also anti technology and racist too
Probably only the first little bit lmao. It starts sounding like something a MAGA influencer wrote today pretty quickly.
Disclaimer that Tankies, for example, would promote it but not actually believe it.
Are you saying tankies don’t like to shit on the west?
Tankies promote anarchism and violence in the west, promote authoritarianism at home.
It was his methods that were somewhat problematic
No, not just his methods, unless you agree with shit like this:
Leftists tend to hate anything that has an image of being strong, good and successful. They hate America, they hate Western civilization, they hate white males, they hate rationality. The reasons that leftists give for hating the West, etc. clearly do not correspond with their real motives. They SAY they hate the West because it is warlike, imperialistic, sexist, ethnocentric and so forth, but where these same faults appear in socialist countries or in primitive cultures, the leftist finds excuses for them, or at best he GRUDGINGLY admits that they exist; whereas he ENTHUSIASTICALLY points out (and often greatly exaggerates) these faults where they appear in Western civilization. Thus it is clear that these faults are not the leftist’s real motive for hating America and the West. He hates America and the West because they are strong and successful.
Wow. That’s fascinating. Thank you for sharing it.
Ted could have done with someone explaining the concept of punching down to him.
Ngl this sounds like some of the most prominent .world posters.
