i'm so fucking tired of nuance fetishist liberals acting like any given political issue is just "too complex" to understand (hexbear.net)

shut the fuck up. "the israeli-palestinian conflict is centuries long and sooo complicated, none of us americans can understand it" no it isn't, the israelis stole the land that palestinians have lived on for thousands of years, committing a genocide in the process. they are unambiguously evil and all palestinian violence against them is justified self defense. simple as that

"oh my god climate change is such a complicated problem, how can we possibly balance the health of the planet with the needs of businesses" shut the fuck up, profit is anti-social behavior and should be reduced to zero wherever possible, and literally nothing is more important than the health of the planet we fucking live on. simple as that

in conclusion, shut the fuck up liberals. sorry to rant like this lol

I've been looking for a word to describe why I avoid anyone who brings up "freakonomics". Nuance fetishist is perfect

There's a phrase I've used to describe this liberal tendency as the "Freakanomic Counter-intuition Complex"
