I have been on reddit for just about 12 years now. Something I’ve noticed over time is just how hateful the place has become. A complete outrage machine. Every single sub became filled with it. I’ve filtered so many subreddits over the last few years, it’s insane. I don’t know enough about this place to be sure, but I do hope it doesn’t become the same type of echo chamber of anger.
…or that da ruthless librul snowflakes are coming to take your guns away and turn your masculine christian baby boy into a girl.
Meanwhile, these very same assholes cheer when their orange dictator throws immigrants’ children into cages. Their personal nightmares are just in their minds. Yet the nightmares they create are very real.
… did you legitimately just miss the point of the post you’re replying to?
The habit of overblowing events into crisis is not unique to either side, and neither is either sides’ reactions to those imagined crisis causing harm.
The damage from the Antifa rallies to the communities they occured in is very real too, despite your feelings on the neccessity of those rallies, whether you think the people causing damage were false flag plants, etc.
And no, I’m not going to engage you in some sort of discussion trying to determine which side is worse. I’m also not trying to say that both sides are equal either. It’s just disingenuous to pretend this is localized to any specific idealogical group.
