    Mister Gorbachev, tear down this wall and fuck me.

    the 80s was a wild time. this is the photo that was taken soon after Reagan had been penetrated, anally, by Gorbachev. you can tell how happy he was by the smile on his face.

          So let me get this straight:

          You’re knowingly peddling misinformation (which makes it disinformation), which only discredits all of the legitimate critique present in this thread; and your response to someone asking for confirmation whether what you said is true or not was a snarky reply insinuating that I’m somehow gullible (for asking if something was true? Which is not the same thing as unquestioning belief, by the way).

          In other words, you find it so hilarious and depraved that anyone could possibly wonder if anything you say is worth taking seriously?

          At least I know now that you’re not a serious person.

            Me when someone tells a joke

            On the one hand, there’s no fucking way you thought it might be possible that Reagan had said “tear down this wall and fuck me.” But on the other hand, it would be really funny if you did, so I choose to believe it

              Obviously the quote would be the joke, but it was insinuating that he actually did have sex with Gorbachev, which is honestly not that outlandish and was worth asking for confirmation.

                  If King Richard and Suliman the Magnificent could be butt buddies during the crusades, what’s stopping a couple of cold war era heads of state of rival world powers from being star-crossed lovers?

                  I’m sure they had enough confidential meetings to pull it off, and do I really need to enumerate how many conservatives are actually closeted homosexuals?

            if you’re on a political community thread and mistake Robbin Williams for Ronald Reagan you’re asking for it.

            chill tf out dude.

            whatever “disinformation” I’m “peddling” about Reagan isn’t a quarter as bad as the real shit he said or did.

            get off your high horse.

              Right, so take some of the legitimate critique you can make about Reagan and focus on that instead of discrediting yourself and everyone else who criticizes him by presenting falsehoods as facts “on a political thread,” as you pointed out.

              If you can’t see how damaging long-term it can be to spread bullshit instead of factual critiques, then you’re the one who has a high-horse you need to dismount.

              It’s not Reagan I’m defending, it’s the integrity of the criticism directed at Reagan.

                  Alright, if we can’t have any serious discussions here (even on a thread in a political community, as you so rightly pointed out!) then I guess there’s no fucking point in having a fediverse at all, since apparently we’re only allowed to use it for shitposts and circlejerks.

                  Is that what you want? Is the whole reason for decentralization, autonomy, anonymity, and data sovereignty so that the government can’t see your dank-ass memes?
