For this brilliant fucking idiot that I’m responding too; satire isn’t planting suggestions into the heads of disgruntled liberals to attack marginalized people even while you do so with your tongue in your cheek.
“satire” is when you say out loud your sociopathic thoughts and get epic updoots for it. The posts on ULPT are, as i understand it, humorously unethical means of achieving an objective which is socially acceptable to desire. In this case, the apparently socially acceptable desire is the removal of the minorities who we are deciding to blame for the election result. Note that this is different from the desire to win the election, the election has already passed - this is pure vindictiveness.
Ok, apparently there are actual hateful idiots in that thread. You didn’t share that part previously. Not too shocking though. That’s why I don’t use reddit.
Drive-by comments from these types are not the ones we’re gonna reach through. I’ve had more luck with my Trump neighbors than these types (made a post a while back and had more progress since then). They’re ignorant, smug and straight up having a meltdown over on Reddit right now; where this is from. It’s full fourth reich over there. Someone defending this is definitely not type to organize with.
I was having a decent conversation with another lib from lemmee; different than this type.
For you brilliant commenters reacting angrily, this doesn’t represent actual views. /r/UnethicalLifeProTips is satire.
EDIT: Well it’s supposed to be satire, anyway. I won’t claim it’s succeeding.

Eat shit.

I didn’t claim it was good satire. That’s just the supposed purpose of that subreddit. I personally think this is pretty pathetic.
The brownshirt already threw out the defense and drive-byed. They’re probably going to self-wank on android making updoot-worthy quirky jokes.
Where’s the satire here?
I shouldn’t be shocked that these have raked thousands of upvotes, but I am.

Oh cool! Topped off with some racism!
@Deconceptualist@lemm.ee Very satirical funny racism. You fucking pathetic worm.
I get it, I get the feeling but if we want to think about organizing calling people pathetic worms is not going to help
