Sadly...

Nick Fuentes, the white nationalist podcaster known for his long history of antisemitic and misogynistic remarks, wrote on X/Twitter as Trump’s victory emerged: “Your body, my choice. Forever.”

The phrase has gained fast popularity on TikTok, where numerous women have been told their bodies no longer belong to them following the presidential election result.

I have never seen anybody use that phrase in seriousness. Some weirdo said it in a place none of us ever go? That's pretty thin.

Might want to Google Fuentes. He's a depressingly influential right wing figure.

Also Twitter continues to be one of the latest social media companies in the world.

And yet I have never read any of his stuff. Not a thing. So whatever.

Lol, this is the internet equivalent of a toddler thinking if they can't see you, they are hidden.

“i closed my eyes so the problem doesn’t exist teehee”

[–] null@slrpnk.net 15 points 4 months ago

You haven't seen something that's only been trending for 5 days? Shocker.

Yeah, this obscure quote from an obscure person seems more like a good tool being used by the left to try and paint all of the right as sharing a similar perspective.

[–] Shizrak@sh.itjust.works 17 points 4 months ago (1 children)

It's not that you share a similar perspective. It's that you're on the same side as this asshole (and the Russians, and the KKK, etc) and aren't questioning why.

We know that not all of you are like this. But the problem is that some of you are, and you seem to be okay with it.

You'll note that you didn't denounce this person, and only clutched your pearls and blamed the left.

[–] Jake_Farm@sopuli.xyz 2 points 4 months ago (2 children)

You'll note that you didn't denounce him either.

"this asshole"

Oh look, your statement was false.

[–] Jake_Farm@sopuli.xyz 2 points 4 months ago (2 children)

Pretty sure a school yard insult doesn't constitute a denouncement. Or perhaps you actually mean virtue signal.

[–] Croquette@sh.itjust.works 8 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Bad troll, go back under the bridge.

[–] Jake_Farm@sopuli.xyz 1 points 4 months ago (1 children)

As if the guy trying to struggle session strangers on the internet isnt a troll.

[–] Croquette@sh.itjust.works 4 points 4 months ago

No, bad troll!

[–] Shizrak@sh.itjust.works 7 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

Blocked, bad faith argument, pedant

I once heard a liberal say that he likes to eat babies. So liberals are monsters.

[–] Shizrak@sh.itjust.works 4 points 4 months ago

Does the baby eater have 400,000 followers?

[–] surewhynotlem@lemmy.world 6 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Do you spend a lot of time around highschool boys and edge lords? That's how you'd come across it.

[–] Croquette@sh.itjust.works 2 points 4 months ago

Yeah but these edgelords and high school boys eventually become adults, and perpetuate the same behavior, continuing the circle of hate and bigotry.
