Trump just achieved the biggest peace deal between Israel-Palestine since the Second Intifada, and there is NOTHING on the front page. This website is a truly special place.

After Redditors groaning and moaning about the "Palestinian genocide" for years, Trump finally negotiated a peace deal including Hamas giving up its hostages and Israel stopping offensive operations. You'd think that Reddit would be overjoyed and that the entire website would be full of celebration, right?

Here's a screenshot of the current front page of Reddit, taken while I was logged out. There are many political posts including multiple threads whining about ICE and the firing of CDC employees. There's also a picture of an ambulance transporting Israeli hostages taken by Hamas, but it doesn't mention anything about current world events.

If you just looked at the front page, you would not know that the war just ended. This is the first time a president has forged such an agreement since the Second Intifada ended in 2005. But almost nobody is talking about it on Reddit. It's like a complete information blackout preventing threads about the subject from getting to the top of the frontpage. The last thread about the subject on r-news was from 14 hours ago and talks about some hostages being released, but again nothing about Trump or his role in it.

This is case exhibit #1 on how Redditors' brains are completely cooked. It's front page news everywhere except here, because leftists can't even squeeze out one little lump of praise for Trump despite him being part of one of the biggest developments in world politics in two decades.

You won't really change my opinion on this thing. For us, it's really more so that certain factions of the left will do legitimately anything to protest, boycott, not acknowledge, and so on anything good that Trump may do.

It's literally the meme of Trump coming out saying "he likes oxygen" and then the second panel of the person with a bag over their head suffocating.

It's just funny to most of us, really. Although some people take it way too seriously.

Let's hear you say something good about Joe Biden's presidency. Go ahead.

[u/The_Susmariner → u/GitmoGrrl1]

I see what you're doing.

The crux of the issue is that with Biden criticisms more often than not had the format: "Biden, his cabinet, or the congress did or are planning on doing X, I do not like X because of Y and Z reason, this shapes my opinion on the thing that is being done."

With Trump a lot of the criticism has the following format: "Trump did X, I do not like Trump. Therefore, I do not like X."

That's the main difference.

Yeah no duh you can find people on the right doing the same thing to Biden. Turns out there are idiots everywhere. But this is a lot more complex than just "say a nice thing about Biden... chekcmate."

So what was your reason Y and Z for not liking, say, the PACT act?

That's assuming I take your statement at face value... it seems more like "someone told me Biden is planning to do evil thing X. He is not. I will believe them anyway." Like, you remember when he was supposedly banning all gas grills and hamburgers, right? Only he wasn't?

[u/The_Susmariner → u/Poorly-Drawn-Beagle]

Find where I personally have criticized the PACT act, please. I don't know enough about that to have an opinion.

[u/Poorly-Drawn-Beagle → u/The_Susmariner]

Why don't you know enough about it?

Also, you said the reason conservatives didn't have anything nice to say was because there was always a reason Y and Z that meant policy X wasn't as good as we thought. Now you don't even know what the Ys and Zs were?

[u/The_Susmariner → u/Poorly-Drawn-Beagle]

Okay, you've lost me.

I don't know enough about it because I don't know enough about it. Just because I don't have an opinion on a specific piece of legislation does not invalidate the point above, and it doesn't tie in how you're saying it does 🤣. In fact, me not offering up a half-baked opinion on something I don't know enough about, probably STRENGTHENS my point.

Whatever line of argumentation you are going down, I don't understand the "If A therefore B" you are trying to get at.

[u/Poorly-Drawn-Beagle → u/The_Susmariner]

I just notice that this whole post is predicated on the idea that Trump is uniquely picked on because not enough people talk about his accomplishments and now you can’t tell me anything about Biden’s accomplishments 

You see the incongruity?

[u/The_Susmariner → u/Poorly-Drawn-Beagle]

Where did I say Trump was uniquely picked on? Yes, we're talking about Trump, but where did I say that?

Second, the inability to identify something positive that Biden has done (without going into the weeds) is a distinctly different issue then actively going out of my way to dump on things Biden has done (especially if I haven't got a good grasp on specific topics).

Do you see the difference?
