It’s a thought stopping cliche in the form of an ad hominem shotgun whose trigger is tied to the door handle. You can’t disagree with the author’s take on technology or you’re a bigot and probably a misogynist and a fascist.

I hate watching fascism take over, and that’s why I hate this kind of leftist purity culture. It’s a big thing pushing people to the right.

Of course the far right does it too, which pushes people back the other way I guess.

The present day left and right are like having one obnoxious self righteous asshole screaming in each ear. I have never in my life seen the public discourse in worse shape.



Every list of 'thought stopping cliche's must also contain 'thought stopping cliche'.

The right wing fascist culture is the left's fault, sure kiddo.

If you like fascism just be proud and say, "I am a fascist."

Who do you think will actually believe you when you say "I hated fascism until the leftists made me like fascism" anyway?


I can’t tell if this is facetious. The world’s gone mad.
