The average TrueAnon listener is a social democrat, maybe democratic socialist

Don't blow it up by assuming she's a freak commie like us, sus it out slowly first

[–] [email protected] 44 points 1 week ago

Start with a 32 minute rant about how Stalin was right and the history we’ve received was written “ex” information warfare officers who “switched” to being historians after WW2 and if she walks away you dodged a bullet.

alternate pov: be as up front about your freaky politics as possible if you're trying to find a serious partner. you want someone who is at least okay with where you're at if not on the exact same page. i have a marx quote high up in my bio on hinge, better to get it outta the way early.

I have to say that I think I earn a lot of respect from people by stating that I am a communist and then explaining and defending my position with passion.

Being a communist is sexy too, so there's that.

[–] [email protected] 24 points 1 week ago

I agree, but there's a difference between getting it out of the way early on rather than ruining a fun casual date with complex depressing political talk

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 week ago

So she could be unhinged, got it.

Invite her to see shen yun

[–] [email protected] 28 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Ask what her upper limit on locations is, and if it's okay if you bring a helicopter.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

And whether she'd be into dating a sewer guy

Edit: Or a mole person

Say "Oh you're a Qanon fan too?"

[–] [email protected] 19 points 1 week ago

This will either bomb hilariously or be genuinely really funny and well received. There is zero in-between.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I love all the anons. Qanon, Trueanon, Frantzfanon

one of the things that these last few decades has taught me is that ostracized people are usually able to vibe with other ostracized people even though they have diametrically opposite world views.

i suppose that's one of the reasons why lemmy is now seeing an influx of social conservatives, in addition to helping amp up the liberal vs leftist culture war on lemmy.

Does anybody have a clip or know the episode where brace does Obama voice and says

"Gotta have them liz, and brace too!"

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 week ago (2 children)

I've finally gotten my wife listening to it enough to start making the 'it was a Jewish doctor' jokes. It's everything I had hoped it would be.

Is TrueAnon worth listening to? I tried listening to one episode of it, but wasn't really impressed. (and also kind of didn't get the topic of the discussion)

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 week ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

Depends on the ep, and if you're interested in getting some information on a topic you might be interested in with a whole lot of silliness intermixed. But like with anything else, if their sense of humor isn't your thing, it's not gonna click.

I recommend picking an episode that seems to talk about something you think might be interesting and go from there, just go in expecting a fair bit of goofiness and not a hard-facts-only-no-jokes citations-needed style joint. The Musk episodes were good for exposing exactly what kinds of cons he gets up to, and I intend to go back and listen to them for a refresher since he's somehow still viewed favorably by... people...
