    Oh man. Buckle up. The hive mind here is something fierce. Something about the Left eating their young. People get real pissy when you question a common narrative you find here. It’s becoming harder to separate fact from fiction for me. I can’t decide if my bullshit detector is accurate or malfunctioning.

    It feels like there may be a fair amount of propaganda happening. Like back during the early days of the r/thedonald when you could you could watch the Russians clock in and stir up the magats and q’s. Just a different political flavor.

    IDK, I say this as a blue voting redneck and supporter of socialized medicine and queer rights and so on.

      You sound alright brother. I also lean left, but I ain’t into that super left hivemind bullshit.

      Big fan of socializing medicine and I think all consenting adults can marry and fuck whoever the hell they want.

      I also think everyone has a right to bear arms which they really don’t like.

      I believe in free speech full stop. Used to be a lefty thing and now somehow isn’t. Not a fan of that shift.

      I also hate cancel culture and DEI nonsense. People make mistakes and change. Hire the best person for the job regardless of race, gender and whatever else.

      Most importantly I want the government to fuck off. Leave everyone alone. Help those who need help but stop telling us what to do dammit.
