It’s genuinely bizarre how much the pig poo pic riles these people up, honesty I always thought it was one of our novice level memes, but these dipshits are actually pressed over it lmao wtf
It started off as a mid and low effort bit at best… til we started seeing the reactions it got… every time.
fr I thought it was lame as hell but it seems to actually get these people tilted lmao
We first told chuds to post hog, and then we started posting the hog ourselves
Tbf it gets annoying when it’s the full size image being spammed 20 times in a row. In my app, it remains full size so it takes some scrolling to get past the Poopballs.
Apparently thats a bug due to how Hexbear’s emojis were translated over to the main Lemmy. I think our version scales them down to emoji size but the other Lemmy’s display them at full resolution, something like that. Apparently the smart people who know things are trying to get a fix pushed soon.
It’s a kind of vulgarity they probably don’t encounter anywhere else. Usually internet vulgarity involves screaming slurs of some kind.
Whereas PPB dismisses their argument, or lack thereof, without shitting on anyone but it’s own balls. It doesn’t compare them to a marginalize group, it doesn’t accuse them of being shills, it doesn’t say they’re a bot, it doesn’t accuse them of being any of the stuff the GOP constantly scream.
It’s extremely vulgar, but how should you respond to it? there’s no script for it. It’s not harmful. It’s just vulgar in a way that transgresses lib civility norms. So what do they do about it? Well, the complain, because it’s new and upsetting and they don’t have a ready made response or dismissal.
Lib: “lefties call everybody that disagrees with them a fascist”
Lib, analyzing PPB: “this image is fascist, i will not elaborate”
Then they get 5 replies, answering all of them with some Russiagate rant, then their inbox blows up with 50 replies, which they reliably increase to 500 replies by answering every single one of them with a passive-aggressive post about how we’re all mentally ill wumaos from a potato wodka country because we have pronouns other than he/him
No, it’s important that we also have dudes so they can think we’re Sino-Russian neckbeards setting the pronoun setting to shuffle.
“But Y’all ain’t ready for that conversation” is my activation phrase.
okay, so, here’s my hottest take…
I feel bad seeing ppb because he looks that way because of hormones/animal farming
That’s just how uncastrated pigs look when they’re down to clown in hogtown
A lot of mammals have absurdly large balls. Like go look at a boy rat sometimes. Dude’s often dragging.
Remember the Hexbear user who argued ppb is ableist because they had IBS?
