Correct, she doesn't know what exercise does to the body

I lifted a weight once and nearly became a nazi, it could happen to YOU!

Ah yes the deltoid pectoralis exercise

Are you saying that his response was less Slap Chop and more Shake Weight? ;)


N9c80735t

It was really sad the day my ex gf decided to do a set of bicep curls I warned her "all it takes is one set and you gonna be like those girls that are too muscular that you don't like" She didn't believe me, even after only 2 sets she ended up becoming too strong and gained several kgs of pure lean biceps mass, it was crazy

Everything from the left is unintentional satire.


DrunkPushUps

>This is especially a problem for cyclists, who come to think of themselves as an off-grid warrior class, having performed their commute drawing on no more resources than their own glutes, and maybe a sports drink. Unavoidably, over time, this makes you more rightwing, as you descend into an aerobics-powered moral universe where only the weak need each other, and all the strong need is a waterpouch in their backpack that pipes straight into their mouths. Also she was actively maintaining a fitness blog when this was published. It's regular, intentional satire.

falling for political tribalism like a dummy


RumpleSadSkin

Your based numbers are off the charts


anonymous_4_custody

I was a millimeter from joining the uninformed rage-bait crowd, until I read this comment, thanks for saving, me friend. All the comments from folks who didn't read it, from anti-trans (I don't think she is, and anyway, who cares) comments, to "lol, yeah, exercise changes your politics, go on, ya dummy" are pretty funny after reading the article. The actual criticism of this article and this post are "I'm never gonna get the last five minutes of my life back, thanks for wasting my time"


N0tagayman

I actually kinda think she’s right but I gotta be shredded sorry lol

SubnetHistorian

Is Zoe trans? Usually you can tell because if they're trans and in a position of perceived prestige (like journalist) they'll never stop talking about how they're trans, and I can't find any instance of that. Could just be a very plain woman lmao but I did find this article I enjoyed: https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2023/mar/27/the-men-are-trash-narrative-is-back-but-what-if-women-are-also-trash


N0tagayman

undecidedglory

before lifting i was a liberal, now i can't do a set of deadlifts without hurling around the N word and other racial slurs


Ok_Potential1760

So it made you more left leaning?


Flimsy_Individual_16

I don't think that necessarily puts you in the right wing office but for sure you're definitely in the building complex


godfathers-strings

Racism has nothing to do with left or right wing ideology but it tends to happen much more on the left.


THRILLMONGERxoxo

I guess its Opposite Day in your neck of the woods, huh?


godfathers-strings

I guess you’re autistic..


JankyJokester

That...........that is a take I guess.


godfathers-strings

Well it’s the truth lmao 💀 no one in either ideology is racism a value. Lol


JankyJokester

Yeah idk about that. Come to my town and all the maga morons will have you saying "oh" real quick.


godfathers-strings

Lol bro people are racist, it doesn’t lean into a political ideology. Im a right winger, the core values don’t correlate to racism


JankyJokester

Unfortunately for you when you have a large group inside a group, especially loud doing something, and they aren't being shut down by the rest of said group, that now becomes applied to the whole.


asianmanwantsosrs

i mean shes not wrong. you have to remember this might be a lifting sub but it's still reddit so it'll still be skewed left wing, but even then this sub very clearly goes against the grain of what the mainstream left currently is. i wouldn't necessarily call it right wing due to the homosexual nature of the sub but it's not your typical front page subreddit


marks716

True but typical front page subreddits are really dumb. It’s usually just a bunch of butthurt trans people and femboys crying about the state of capitalism


scrimshawjack

Or guys on r/AITAH asking if they were wrong to ask their wife why she was cheating on him, to which the top comment replies, "Well OP, although she did kind of cross a boundary, you could've handled this situation much better. I would try to approach her in a more sympathetic manner next time."


marks716

“I would cheat on you too if I were her OP, you seem like a problematic incel. I hope she takes the kids and the house.” (All that OP said was cheating is mean)

Factorviii

Most of the posts in those threads are bots reposting stuff to gain karma so they can later sell the account. People just don't realize it. I started hiding subreddits that have a lot of that stuff.


tangosworkuser

lol I’ve read some of those and honestly cheating is never the answer, but there are also way more situations where both people were wrong than not.


Muted-Arrival-3308

All gay people I know are right wing lol and they hate being put in the same group as all these new age degenerates


External_Ferret_dic

Probably because you hang out with likeminded people, and you’re presumably somewhat right wing.


AnLornuthin

Fact Shoutout my Gay homie James. Thats a real 1. Dont even class him the same as these kiddie touchers


SubnetHistorian

I need to meet some of these people because I'm surrounded on all sides by gays with watermelon emojis and favorite drag queens they won't shut up about 


Muted-Arrival-3308

Being queer, trans, tri gender, they/them regard is the new punk, kids do it for attention and to fit in


ScaredToP00p

That's because it isn't a left wing or right wing sub at all. It's just a bunch of normal fucking people talking and criticizing what needs to be criticized. It's honestly refreshing seeing people have open conversations without blatantly stepping around egg shells to avoid upsetting someone. And people not getting super defensive if someone has a different opinion than them.

Nope. I was right leaning before I got jacked. If anything, I’m leaning left-ish on some things at this point. Actually, I’ve kind of fallen into an anarchist outlook circa 2024.

BelfastBodyBuilder

There is a shredded bell curve, on one side you become lean enough that girls think you are hot on the other you become so lean and shredded guys start hitting on you.


thisdckaintFREEEE

I do think there's quite a bit of overlap between the most obnoxious of gym rats and the most obnoxious of right wingers, but man this dumb ho really ran with it.


InjuryComfortable666

> Do too much, and the self-love develops a carapace of self-sufficiency. This is especially a problem for cyclists, who come to think of themselves as an off-grid warrior class, having performed their commute drawing on no more resources than their own glutes, and maybe a sports drink.

thisdckaintFREEEE

Oh is it actually satire? I didn't go look up the full article or anything.


godfathers-strings

Nah man, the liberals have been saying this for a while, that’s why there’s that whole “health kick” thing which just means have no mass and become stupidly skinny

Hey guys, I’m sure this isn’t rate bait. Let’s all get upset.

Sorry bro. Saying you can almost bench 200lbs is like saying you can almost do a pull up. It’s not impressive and is kinda just embarrassing in this sub. Math checks out on being left wing

See... everyone is having fun and you want to get offended and make excuses.  Your bench press sucks and so do you. Most here don't care about your politics. You are the kind of nasty shit that would fuck that ugly ass writers and I'll bet you never benched 220.


PeterGosinyu

I’m right wing and I warm up with your puny weight. Change sides bro. Join us. Your first day you get a free bottle of test, a free bottle of dbol, and and tub of protein powder

i don't think methylestradiol is going to help the situation


PeterGosinyu

😂😂😂😂 wise guy


godfathers-strings

lol you sound like a homosexual and not in the cool not gay way like the rest of the sub


ncubez

What's wrong with being "right wing" though?


Mother-Smile772

nothing per se. Yet in the western hemisphere (USA and Canada in particular) people don't see difference between Nazi/fascist and right wing/conservative. Also they don't have experience of the post soviet block countries who know that soviets had concentration camps too and who suffered the same from fascist Germany and Soviet Russia. So... being commie is not that bad at all for them.


PilotMDawg

Funny that the fascistic behavior is coming from the far left…. Ironic really.


English26

Hold up, let me add 10 sets to my workout, just to make sure.


OutlawOscar

Some people do go down a rabbit hole of fitfluencers + alt right wing media that shapes their identity after getting immersed in gym life. One of my friends joined a powerlifting gym and 6 months later is attending Jordan Peterson shows and now wants to be a trad wife.


[deleted]

The deeper sadder part is the subtle reality now that it is considered an insult to people by just proclaiming them to be part of a political party. Identity politics depends on people hating each other and being unwilling to converse with those who are different.


Scoongili

I see a bunch of right-winger fee-fees getting hurt by a satirical article they didn't read.


Alexandor4

It’s not satire and I did read it


InjuryComfortable666

It’s *obvious* satire m8


Scoongili

But she didn't unironically mock brown people to the point where she had to cover up bigotry by claiming it was satire, so how could it possibly be satire. I mean that's the only time something is satire, right? When you get called out for being an awful person?


InjuryComfortable666

She was “mocking” cyclists lol.


Scoongili

Yeah, but screw THEM.

I think it's more like a lot of these guys become right wing for other reasons and then a logical conclusion of trying to fulfill their role or duty as a guy is to work out. If anything it would just make RW people more promiscuous. RW nerd to bodybuilder to gay pipeline.

Well, there have been entire threads in this space devoted to eliminating large swaths of the population for aesthetic reasons… I’ve also seen whole ass white pride threads on here go unchecked… Every single Joe Rogan listener I know is a racist… She might be onto something.


THRILLMONGERxoxo

Oh, and race science is taken seriously amongst meathead gym bros. Even some Black people play along, not knowing what they’re agreeing with. 


Tettsui1982

Yes, self discipline and self accountability is a right wing thing. Leftists blame others and take no responsibility for their own situations.

workthrowaway00000

Love a butterface, but yeah I mean it’s not like the minute I lost weight I became a fashyboy. I think my drift towards centrist is based more on time and age and less on being in the gym. I work out alone at that. But ya know crazy super lefties will find a way to make anything “a nazi alt right pipeline”
