    Well, I think that’s a little bad faith. I think if Hitler rose from the dead and took control of America or the UN or something you’d be distressed as well. This is more the result of buying too many media lies for too long than people just straight up not being able to think.

    (I struggle to see how someone who gets all their facts and news from CNN or MSNBC aren’t able to think as well as people who watch Fox News, the information presented almost always lines up with the narratives they are portraying)

      Sure, but that didn’t happen. I find hilarious that they think that.

      Didn’t take long for Hitler to arrive at the party 😊 That is why you need to have a free float of ideas and news. I like X from that perspective. A ton of other viewpoints than mine are presented there in my timeline as well. The left just doesn’t seem to be interested in exchanging ideas.

      I never block anyone because of his/her opinion unless the person is rude. I truly believe most people want the best for everyone though. They just have different opinions how to achieve that.

      I commented with another commenter who said he’d started smoking again since Trump won the election.

      I told him I made it through the Biden admin while steadily improving my own mental health and just got downvoted to hell for it.

      Leftists tend to think individuals are socially constructed. That’s a serious disadvantage when it comes to operating under (what they perceive as) hostile circumstances.
