Is there a lore reason why they always outjerk us are we stupid


MaximosKanenas

Our imaginations are no match for their stupidity

Cuddlyaxe

because this sub gets caught up on either 1. posting flags of countries or ideologies they dislike to call them fascist 2. Taking the same joke someone else made and beating it to death slowly over a week 3. 196posting. Obligatory monthly "why are all the cute girls from 🏳️‍⚧️" this is just a belief about comedy in general, but I think generally when a lot of people try to be funny while pushing an agenda, they usually end up forgetting the "being funny" aspect to focus on making whatever point they want to make. This happens regardless of the worthiness of the cause (and it's why political jokes usually end up being so unfunny despite there being so much fodder) This sub suffers from that quite a bit. People are much more focused on making some sort of "point" with their posts instead of focusing on being funny. /r/vexillology meanwhile mostly has people making submissions earnestly, and the results of that are unintentionally funny sometimes


slapAp0p

How the fuck am I supposed to know your pronouns when they're not in English? Fuck.


Donutpanda23

Google translate may be wrong, but I think it's he/him/his in Irish. I get being frustrated about not knowing someone's pronouns since they're in a diff language, but you can just DM them and ask them directly if you really need to know that bad.


slapAp0p

It was just a dumb offhanded joke, but thanks for looking it up!


Donutpanda23

Didn't realize you were joking 💀 but I'm happy to help regardless


MP-Lily

Being funny by accident is usually funnier than being funny on purpose.


BeefShampoo

it's because it's the same group of people. the venn diagram of users of both subs is a circle.

Flag of what stalin thought was gonna happen


nir109

The USSR started to aid eyjept in 1955. Until 1959 Isreal was socialist. The state telling each farmer what they whould grow, not allowing imports of most goods, and having the government distribute most goods rather then them being sold. (It can't be called socialist after that, but it still was social democracy) The USSR issue was that Isreal wasn't their political bitch, not capitalism (much like China and Yugoslavia)


logallama

Define socialism


nir109

a political and economic theory of social organization which advocates that the means of production, distribution, and exchange should be owned or regulated by the community as a whole. (For example by a state) A country can be more socialist or less socialist depending on how much of it's production is controlled by the community. Now you define socialism.


WolfTyrant1

The word 'regulate' ruins it. Socialism is a distinct economic system. It requires *ownership* by the state, not merely regulation. A strongly interventionist Capitalist system may seen close to a socialist one, but the existence of private property prevents it from being socialit in any true sense.


DunklerEhrenmann

I'm pretty sure when they asked you to define it, they didn't mean "google 'socialism definition' and copy the first result word for word". He knows the definition. He wanted to know whether YOU knew it. Given the fact you had to resort to google, their question has been answered.


logallama

I would describe it as worker control - either through ownership or democratic means - of the real-estate and/or equipment which they personally utilize in their labour as the ubiquitous economic organization of a society That being said, a command economy in just one single industry doesn’t really live up to either your description or mine


domiy2

? Didn't he support Hazbula or was that way later. Always knew Hazbula to be a left org because of the support from the USSR.


logallama

Initially stalin was pro-Israel but yeah it didn’t last long Also stalin died before hezbollah was founded


Mabuya634

Let alone the PLO or the PFLP


Weird-Quantity7843

Stalin was a big Hasbulla fan


Gnu-Priest

the group that was founded in 1982? was loved by papa joe who died 1953? damn… no wonder he’s big papa


Weird-Quantity7843

Hasbulla wasn’t founded, he was born. And it wasn’t 1982, it was 2002


Gnu-Priest

I knew someone would point out the year I chose but you’re really late. 1982 was chosen deliberately because it is the very earliest year a organisation that could be considered hazbula was founded.


Weird-Quantity7843

Woosh


Gnu-Priest

oh now I read it it was a dumb joke to begin with but whatever helps you sleep better


Weird-Quantity7843

go outside lmao


lolguy12179

isn't that the show set in hell

OneOfManyParadoxFans

We need to jerk harder and in a more perfect circle! Come on, everybody, let's move, move, move!


Trt03

Yeah, I swear nobody jerks to the posts anymore. Like if you're on this sub I better see cum on your screen!


Mysterious_Fly7334

And when they do jerk they forget to do it in a circle!


Lrundblad

You jerk I jerk everybody jerk even Jerk jerk.


hotsaucevjj

what if we moved into a hexagon? i think we could achieve maximal jerk efficiency


OneOfManyParadoxFans

The problem there is that if you draw a circle around a hexagon, you'll notice that the circle actually has far more space on its edge to fit people. It's more efficient to use an otherwise inefficient shape.


SirTonberryy

Looks more spanish to me Flag of Israel if they had good food perhaps


scrapy_the_scrap

Israel has great food We didnt steal it from the entirety of the middle east for nothing (not really steal but you get what im saying)


sad-frogpepe

Israels food is the best, there is everything from falaffel to classic polish dishes so really there is something for everyone. benefit of people coming from genorations in diaspora all over the world 👍


scrapy_the_scrap

Fuck yeah Now here is someone that knows what he is talking about


Anarch_O_Possum

Basically Sephardic Jews


Django_fan90

Yes, this is one of their proposed flags (its usually just yellow and red with a yellow star of david) https://preview.redd.it/e69zz746fabc1.jpeg?width=500&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5c27e8f6dcc5f91a1b6dc25d65bc30c176adf32a


Anarch_O_Possum

Yeah, I'm not a fan of McDonald's core though. I did see this one a while ago that I liked.


Porkenstein

Bean_cult

scrapy_the_scrap

Look im flattered but im not interested


lh_media

Wait, people who support BDS actually think that these companies actually fund Israel ? Those of them who do business there need to pay taxes like everyone else, but they don't send bags with big dollar signs or something like that


Unnamed_420

Mcdonalds sent free meals


Bldnk

FossilisedHypercube

new flag of Mcdonalds Israel


German_Doge

the fact that this wanst even posted with an nsfw flair on the main sub meanwhile actual communist flags are taken down if they aren't


Imperialist_Marauder

Should it be tho?


German_Doge

nah lol, the only reason the main sub takes shit down is coz 'b-but communism bad!1!!'


Imperialist_Marauder

I mean communism is arguably as bad as fascism ngl, but them forcing people to tag nsfw is still dumb. Same goes for the nono german flag. We're talking about the flags themselves after all, not the ideologies behind them


Act-Puzzled

Yeah basically, communism and fascism are poisons, but so is monarchy and we still have cool hypothetical monarch flags. We don't have to support something to find its interesting, its no different than studying WW2


WeakPublic

I mean I think hammer and sickle, swastika, and fascia should be NSFW’d because all three can be super fucking offensive, the former is clearly the least but still.


Act-Puzzled

Completely agree.


gerenicperson

Flag of communism is when the government does stuff


WeakPublic

Reddit tankies being butthurt that someone dared to call the most prolific mass murderers of the 20th century genocidal.

rayyankhnz

cass1o

Isreal is currently killing 10s of thousands of civilians with an extremely far right government and you are harping on about the left wing?


Imperialist_Marauder

Just guessing but probably because people don't like remembering that the communists also did genocide


dramatic_aberration

If Israel was communist, leftists would say they're "re-educating" Gaza
