Opinion of Fish Hook Theory

[Xing]

i dunno man i saw a guy on twitter whos centrist said hed vote for trump over sanders, and then another on fb said socialism is the biggest threat to our democracy and a right winger liked the post. also i no a centrist who said covid is a chinese hoax and a far right winger interjected “ikr!” so seems pretty plausible imo tbh

Anyone who voted freedom theory for horseshoe theory mind explaining why the voted horrible theory for fish hook theory?

The fishhook was made far later I believe.

Both are a cheap meme used internally to wank oneself, that’s why.

Although only one has actual cachet among Serious People (the one that benefits them, naturally).

Fighting stupid metaphors with equally stupid metaphors is all very fun, but largely pointless.
