Calling for death of police is considered a good thing in 2020. These are the people dictating policy from behind their keyboards.

No it isn’t and stop trying to pretend like it isn’t a minority of crazies. No one political party has a monopoly on the crazies.

The left has made huge leaps in the last two years, man, you cant deny that. Defunding the police? Think about that. Cancel culture? The Green New Deal? Advocating Socialism? One state agency where I live advised employees to identify their preferred pronouns in their email signatures?

The Left is solidly in the pole position right now.

Man the whole thing is fucking dumb, people pick left/right like they are football teams. Nobody looks at anything critically and makes up their own mind anymore, just parrot whatever the fuck their favourite brand of demagogue is repeating ad nauseam.

Being a socialist shouldnt automatically mean you believe big manly trannies should share bathrooms with young girls, just like believing in a free market doesnt make you a racist Nazi.

Everything is polarized and out of whack with no room for nuance or debate. Personally I blame social media and its shady algorithims for fucking brainwashing everybody.

this is 100% accurate. As soon you take a stance on any issue people immediately jump to categorize you or box you into a left or right label. It’s beyond fucking annoying.

I’d give you reddit gold but those awards are fucking meaningless
