I joined reddit on the tailwind, so it was all echo chamber, we hate newcomers, gatekeeping, automod frenzy, too many rulebreakers, too many rules, etc I could be wrong, but thats what I imagine it used to be like.

      Let’s start to the Florida curriculum telling kids the good things about slavery and move on to objecting to giving schoolchildren free school lunches. Then there’s the encouraging suicides of trans kids by taking away the one thing preventing that suicide. I can keep going if you like.

        That’s misinformation

        Most kids identifying as trans nowadays are not actually. There’s a strange Internet derived obsession with being trans, and it’s important to protect kids from permanent damage over a temporary phase.

        I can keep going if you like

        So, yes. Please come up with a real example

          It is not. I’ve read the text myself. You’re gaslighting.

          Bullshit. Cite your sources.

          So, yes. Please come up with a real example

          Sure, as soon as you cite your sources and stop gaslighting.

      They have destroyed social programs and the middle class. Tax cuts for the rich drove up enormous, insurmountable debt. The war on drugs. There were no WMD’s in Iraq. Guns take precedence over kids. Due to voter suppression and gerrymandering, they are vastly overrepresented in government. They refused to let Democratic presidents appoint Supreme Court judges. They are okay with stealing migrant kids from their parents and hiding razor wire in the Rio Grande. They are broadly xenophobic, homophobic, and misogynistic. They support Putin…

      And a bunch of “fuck your feelings” spoiled adult babies who can’t accept that their dumbass, tub-of-lard dipshit president lost tried to overthrow the government.

        Lol all bullshit or bipartisan. Not too mention the typical bigotry of just broadly calling them all “xenophobic” and other typical prejudice
