    Have you looked at twitter in the past 6 months? It’s nothing but you republicans being assholes to us leftists.

    But go ahead, cry about it when we do it back to you.

      I live in Europe, I vote green-socialist, I’ve never been on twitter, you and the rest of the “liberal” US crowd make me cringe so hard it hurts.

      But spending time on lemmy has been very productive. I’m starting to understand why the political discourse in the US is failing so miserably.


      Look at an average Trump rally, listen to it, your brain will start hurting after 5 min. But you know what, following lemmings in ther “righteous” fight causes the same brain damage after like 10 min of scrolling.

      Let me reiterate. You’re as dumb as your republican friends. It just happened that you stand with lgbt and want social welfare, but your approach to promoting these values is absolutely equivalent to chanting “stop the count”.

      The thing I honestly hate most about American liberals is that they don’t know the difference between being on the American left and being a leftist.

          It’s an obvious symptom of their fundamental ignorance and continuing colonial attitudes. I hate it the most because it’s ever present and causes the most daily annoyance while simultaneously being a problem they could have fixed with a minimal self-education, not because it’s the most harmful thing they do.

        Maybe that’s because there’s no difference at all in America. We have a two-party system of government and “being a leftist” vs being on the “American left” would mean what in America exactly? Sewing your own t-shirts? Going to DemSoc meetings? 😆
