Also I’ve never heard anyone ever say “That wasn’t REAL capitalism”

That's because they don't have so many abject failures to excuse. Whatever you may think about Apple and Microsoft, you don't hear anyone claiming they're not real capitalism because oh, they make shitloads of money for the country we're in and provide literally millions of jobs, even if you exclude Steve Jobs himself.

I'm somewhat weirded out by the irrational level of hate directed toward this guy. You do realize someone in a school shooting, whatever level of involvement they had, is going to be freaked the fuck out by it and maybe react irrationally, right? Or are you really so autistic that you can't get that?

I'm just not getting the level of hatred. I get that people disagree with his bullshit, and I do, too, but really, why do you hate this guy so much?

The level of brainless hatred directed toward this guy is just going to cement his views permanently because he now actually has some factual basis for viewing the people who disagree with him as just a mass of mindless monsters.

I think it's cause he's doing this stuff for attention considering how he was before the shooting even happened, and this meme war just makes him look like he is doing exactly that.

Yeah, you get traumatized, then you get attention for it, then the attention you're using as a painkiller causes you to gravitate toward the people who claim they're trying to help you.

Look at what they do to this guy if he ever turns against them in even the slightest way.

Even if you disagree with him, you should at least try to understand why he's acting the way he's acting and have some fucking empathy.

I think what he's saying is that if that reddit history was actually Hogg's then he's likely always been something of a narcissist.

I can understand what you mean, I personally do not hate him as much as others do for similar reasons. But I think others hate him not for who he is but more how the Political Left is taking advantage of his tragedy just to further their own political agenda rather than try to help out a victim of a tragedy. Not saying he can't think for himself, but you can clearly see how the Left has used him as their talking head.
 
It is amazing that a person who was born post-internet and likely has used social media since childhood doesn't get that you cannot control it. Nor that the worst, the absolute worst thing you can do, is tell it "See this? This is my hot-button, don't push that". Where has he been all his life? He really has no excuse.
I think that’s actually a way more common sentiment than just our friend here. If they haven’t worked with some sort of tech in the past or visited sites with older sensabities, most kids haven’t really dealt with anything beyond Youtube, clickbait sites, or overtly censorious social media conglomerates. David Hogg, and the new string of activists like him, genuinely don’t get how the internet works. They’ve been deliberately coddled because it’s easier to monotize someone who barely understands that addblockers exist.

The hatred should be directed at the people who don’t encourage David to deal with his trauma in healthier ways but instead surround him with their toxic “with us or against us” mindset, especially those people exploiting him and the others. I’m frustrated with his behavior and him not doing his research, but at the end of a day he’s a kid whose classmates died.
 
I don't hate Hogg, I just think he's acting like a fucking goofball and I find that incredibly funny.

Guess I don't see how this is any different from laughing at literal retards for doing stupid shit.

90% of the lolcow slapfights on this entire site read like word-for-word quoting of


So I can definitely see your point.
 
Until he shows up to vote legally and have it count in the midterms, who gives a shit what he, or anybody for that matter, posts on social media? The only war that counts is the one at the ballot box to get what he claims he wants done in the U.S.

I don't know. I find it hard to be that harsh on someone who is acting like a goofball because he was more or less against his will thrust into the public cultic lovebombing that he was and then got utterly sucked into it.

I just get weirded out by people who act like anyone who acts irrationally after a traumatic experience is basically a "crisis actor" or some shit from an Alex Jones drug delirium.

It's because he WASN'T IN A SCHOOL SHOOTING! He was away from the school when the fun began. He herd about it hopped on his tricycle and peddled his way over their to insert himself into the media circus.

I'm sure he was in a school and absolutely nobody he knew got shot in a mass shooting and I'm sure he had no legitimate feelings about it and is just acting like a complete reptile.

We can all agree the idea of a meme war is really fucking stupid no matter what, right?

Well, obviously. For one thing, you can't win one.
 
The problem is that he had no traumatic experience! He wasn’t even at school the day of the shooting. He didn’t survive shit and it’s hilarious to see the media parading him around as though he did

I've found it fairly traumatic when a friend or even someone I knew died, even if I learned it second hand. Are you literally autistic?
 
Yes, and I'm sure he knew absolutely nobody at the school, and the idea of a tragedy of that sort happening AT ALL there, shattering one of the major illusions of safety minors tend to have, wouldn't be traumatizing at all.

He needed to have heard the gunshots and taken a bullet in the leg before we allow him to speak, and even then it better damn well be what we wanna hear.
