Lmao. You might live in the USA but your posting history tells me exactly what I need to know about how much you actually talk to IRL people. Dude you moderate like 20 communities and spend your days posting on HERE. You don't actually speak to irl people. And yes, as someone living in a ruby red state, volunteering with mutual aid groups and political action groups in a ruby red state, yes I HAVE actually spoken to conservatives lately, along with liberals, leftists, and people who have showered since this election. Get off the computer every minute of every day, actually go out and touch grass and DO something material in your life, because you look like a rage-bait bot with control issues who hasn't spoken to another living human person before. Assuming, ofcourse, that you're not just a shill account meant to spread propaganda.
Yeah, I take like an hour out of my day before work to make one whole post in each of the ~10 communities I mod. Clearly I'm out of control.
The urge to reply back to people who haven't the first goddamn clue what they're talking about is more damning and time-consuming, but I make room for it, out of miserable compulsion to not let idiocy go unchallenged in the comment sections I frequent, if nothing else.
And you still believe that they're just anti-corruption and economically anxious, like some Very Serious Liberal Writer ready to write his sixth consecutive election column about having pancakes with them good holsum country folk?
That's disturbingly naive that you'd still fall for that. But considering what you've said in this comment thread, unsurprising.
