The Political Thread

[Wang Chung]

It does seem to be the same @

I just checked and people i follow, who would have been definitely following Biden and Harris on them, follow these now. So maybe that’s it then after all.

Maybe that is what I had happen to mine and thought I was just given them. Never thought of this.

Did you previously follow accounts that would just change hands from one politician to another?

I followed those and just saw Obama, Trump and Biden and never thought about it changing as they just showed up in my feeds. I also get crap from the paid people that both parties pay to post about how wonderful they are without following them. I also don't get on much of my social media crap besides Facebook and that's more for family stuff more than anything else. I have always felt Social media has hurt society more than it has helped society.

Each email and call log is a different violent rioter who assaulted me in the tunnel. If you are defending these people who brutally assaulted the police, maybe you ARE NOT a supporter of the police and the rule of law to begin with. If you did you would want accountability.

"Back the blue" except for the ones still trying to receive justice for being attacked during Trump's attempted theft of an election. We have to free the true cop beating patriots, only protect the ones that attack black people

"But what about Biden when he pardoned..." Okay thanks for letting me know you supported the attempted theft of an election in 2020 by trying to downplay it with more "but both sides" fucking shit

Every time

Every time

We have to protect Nazi speech bc the left made me see rainbows. You can't show favoritism, we have to compromise duh

 

[Chris]

It's even funnier when you remember the "both side" rhetoric really ramped up that time the neo Nazis for Trump killed a woman during protest and Donald Trump said "there were fine people on both sides"

That's what everyone is parroting when they say "but both sides are bad you know," a literal defense for Nazis, with tiki torches at that

 

[Comrade Khan]

also just because the politicians on the left are also corrupt doesnt mean people who believe in left principles agree with corruption. we usually also call out our own which is the huge difference

 

[Chris]

Interesting, just went back to see what the responses were when I posted the Hunter Biden pardoning news. Grim said it was a fuck you to Trump and laughed, everyone else said lol of course and made fun of him, a few were more critical.

No one said "but what about what Trump did"

Why is everyone so scared of commiting to being against Trump if you actually are? Being anti-Trump doesn't mean you have to be a smelly Democrat, they suck too. I only have to mention that when I try and criticize Trump tho

I don't care if they consider themselves left or not, I don't understand why people who claim to not support Trump have such a hard time actually...not supporting him without trying to act like it's no big deal

What do you expect really... they are swallowing the Fox News and Trump campaign Whataboutism loads for years and years like it's their favorite beverage in the world.

Hundreds of Subreddits Are Considering Banning All Links to X

Dozens of big subreddits have already banned all Twitter links, and posts about potential bans are some of the most popular on the site.

Link to the BlueSky thread, where people already posted a lot of subreddits who decided on them banning or not.

Hundreds of subreddits are considering banning all links to Twitter/X in a pretty powerful display of collective action: https://www.404media.co/hundreds-of-subreddits-are-considering-banning-all-links-to-x/

Apparently even the Christianity subreddit did it. (I dunno how conservative that subreddit is, so I'm not sure if that's surprising or not... but still looks funny to me)

I wish I had an answer for you. I haven't supported the liberal party or democrats and have been openly critical on their position on a few things (ppl like Pelosi are cannibals too).

The media does this too they never fully call him out on anything or give him constant outs while anybody else sneezes and its a scandal.

My earlier point was only that outside mb ppl like grim etc most moderates on the left have no issue calling out bs but right moderates seems to constantly look for any excuse to not loudly shit on trump

 

[JakeYourBooty]

I’ve been both sides are dogshit for the longest time and have no issue calling out either but also don’t talk politics a ton cuz I get it from both sides
