I know, I get it. Echo chambers are bad m’kay?
But hear me out. Most of the interactions I had on there were essentially me fighting against the news for about 11 years. Most of the people I argued with were reactionary and repeated everything on TV. It was frustrating and it was awful.
I gained little insight into what was going on by interacting with them, and in retrospect, I could’ve been no better off here. And honestly, I feel less on edge about current affairs being around people who get it. I’m one degree removed from crazy.
I’m glad there are spaces on the web where I can get away from all of that nonsense. So, I guess, in a sense, thank you for being here.
It’s most notable when someone on the right says something like, “Well what if Biden is in the Epstein files, should he be investigated?” and I say yes, and they’re super surprised and don’t know what to do with it. The idea that someone might not have infinite loyalty to one particular politician is crazy to them.
The idea that someone might have infinite loyalty to any politician seems crazy to me, but there it is.
100% correct. I have the same experience. When they say “insert democrat here” is on the list!
I say ok then, lock their ass up too! They always go quiet. Like they are amazed you want to lock up your team.
Real Americans don’t play sides. We want anyone involved punished, just like the law is written.
