Greenists believe that the world should be a better place for green people, and everyone else too

Orangites believe that the world should only have orange people, and that all greens should be hung

Me?
I’m a greenist-orangite,
why do you ask?
The Greenist isn’t green enough. I’m not voting to send a message they need to earn my vote.
“This orange looks more green than the other orange, I’m going to vote for it and call myself a greenist.”
“Oh why is everything still orange? I voted for the green shade of orange!”
…yellow?
It might be this:
So brownish yellow-orange?
Orange = yellow+red
Green = yellow+blue
Green orange = 2yellow+red+blue
Green orange = 2yellow+purple?
So you’re choosing less green. Got it.
You literally are in the third panel.
The third panel is a centrist. It is not someone who is so green that nothing is green enough for them.
I’m mocking the leftists who flooded Lemmy with their “don’t vote for Kamala” message.
… Think you missed the words: “world” and “everybody else”
No I didn’t. Extreme Greenists will be telling everyone in 3 years to not vote for Mamdani because of the police killing citizens that happened under his term.
Its not about police killing per se its more so the lack of accountability in police killings, since it’s unavoidable shouldn’t every police shooting have some kind of scrutiny. That’s the issue.
That’s because you aren’t an extremist.
The extremists wouldn’t vote for Obama because he killed some people while ignoring that he killed less than any other President in the last 50 years. In 3 years it will be “Mamdani the citizen murderer” while ignoring that ( I expect ) he’ll have less deaths than any modern mayor.
I think you’re fighting against some super niche extremists then. And if they are so niche why are they living rent free in your head?
They aren’t a niche on Lemmy. They were everywhere before the election.
Do you have an actual source for that? Considering the hundreds of thousands of people he had killed in Iraq and Afghanistan, I find it hard to believe his death toll was lower than Clinton’s, or hell, even Bush Sr.
Iraq was effectively over when Obama started and Afghanistan slowed too by the end of Obamas second term.

Exactly. You are the green/orange in the third panel, complaining about being told you’re too orange to be green.
You seem to have not understood the comic
Ultra-greens: “That green looks a little yellow-green. That’s too close to orange! I’m so inclusive and tolerant. Why can’t everyone just coexist like me?”
Look, if you really can’t cope with not having the moral high ground of being green, maybe instead of bitching about it you can ditch the orange and get with the program.
Ultra-green: continues to dig heels in and insists that yellow-green is indeed orange, and that only super-ultra greens like themself are truly green and thus have the moral high ground.
Keep bitching all you want, man, we both know what you are.
Orange: “Anyone who doesn’t agree with me must be annihilated!”
Ultra-green: “Only orangites must be annihilated, but anyone who doesn’t agree with me is as bad as orange and therefore must also be annihilated.”
Regular greens, blue-greens, and yellow-greens: “Look, we all have our differences, but let’s have a civilized discussion and see if we can address everyone’s concerns and find a workable solution that meets all our needs. Except for those orangites and ultra-greens, because they can’t be reasoned with and just want to kill everyone who isn’t on their side.”
Orangites: “You’re all radical greenist terrorists!”
Ultra-greens “You’re all orangite fascists! We know what you are.”
Orangites and ultra-greens high-five, as they’re being radicalized by the same troll farms.
