Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing other users of being bots or paid actors.
- No memes, trolling, misinformation, or low-effort posts/comments (including reposts). If you see posts like this that anger you, do not engage. Report, block, and live a happier life than they do. Any slap-fight is subject to comment removals. Fights full of rule violations will result in temporary bans to cool off.

- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in an account ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be permanently banned.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules and use critical thinking when reading, posting, and commenting. Users that repeatedly have comments or posts removed, weaponize reports, or violate the code of conduct, will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed.

"everything which doesn't agree with my view is a troll" and other liberal fantasies
There you go, lying about what you are for the benefit of people that haven't seen you troll people. You are a troll. We both know it. A rather dull insufferable one at that.
Maybe you are just a mean drunk that can't handle your booze.
Thou doth protest too much. You've also given it away who you are. Welcome back. Someone is probably going to report you for ban evasion. I don't know what happened in your early child hood such that this particular phrasing of an ad hominem is always your first attack, but it makes you stand out as for ban evasion.
I guess this is the account you hermit crabbed over to?
And if I'm dull insufferable whatever you come up with, just don't engage. Clearly my views won't have succor if that's the case.
But you and I both know that's not the case. You know how long I've been around. How I've been effective at changing people's minds by being consistent and correct in my politics even if those politics at the time are deeply unpopular. I mean I'm not the one getting serially downvoted like this particular account of yours.
What it comes to is that liberalism and liberals lost their grip by insisting the American people support a genocide when the American people opposed that. And now, the managers and ruling class of the party have also found their grips weakened, just like you have over the past two years. You aren't used to your view not being the axil around which politics rotates and it makes you uncomfortable. And while it looked like you had us in the first half, you e lost to date. I'm not the one having to crawl around in various alts trying to mask my presence.
Lotta text for being part of q anon
Ahh because Democrats sabotaging their left flank to maintains their internal fiefdoms is entirely unprecedented.
Just do as instructed and mark it. Time will tell.
