  • I hope this SO is theoretical, because otherwise having to listen to someone you care about drone on about this sounds physically painful.

  • It's even more fucked up when you point out that

    only "evolved" on gay marriage in like 2015 after the supreme court and public opinion was already there when it comes to normalizing gay people. They had already kicked off the ukraine shit before suddenly pretending america is a bastion/protector for gay people for propaganda purposes. Coincidence? probably, but easy enough to lean into as a wedge issue.

  • It's the politics as team sports demographic, they will always be comfortable with using some other bad cop to make themselves look good- with nothing of substance distinguishing them.

  • Zero solidarity, they ultimately view it as a zero sum game where they want to be on the winning side, and the only difference between them and their sworn internal enemies is that they're the smart boys and girls who know enough to feel bad about the position of power they have.

  • I’ve had this conversation with my SO. Technically speaking the best move for me as a white male would be to support Trump. Instead I vote for Democrats hoping for positive changes for all people. For most of my life I’ve thought I was “far left” for American standards, but since I’ve joined portions of Lemmy and Reddit you’d think I was a fucking Republican.

    Certain portions of the left would rather spit in their own eye for unrealistic principles, even if it means that a worse alternative is the result.

  • How did I only see this now??

  • learned the lesson about allowing people to pay attention to disease outbreaks during an election year- just stop testing!

  • I can't wait for america to make its own great firewall due to malding over losing the narrative, posts will need to be smuggled in on USB drives dropped by balloons over the border

  • Bike cops using their handlebars like improvised batons is something new to me
