I travel a lot, and talk to a lot of different people. I’ve noticed that while people certainly do have differing opinions, it’s not as extreme as what I see online. I’m starting to feel like all this hate and division is manufactured. Has anyone else noticed, that when you actually talk to real people things are far less divided than various media would have you believe?

    One is trying to steal fundamental human rights, pull off a revolution of medievalism, has the worst performing sitting president by every metric as its populist mascot, is hellbent on a christojihad, causes a recession by failing to do its primary job of passing a budget, performs wonderfully as a Russian military proxy unit that completely sabotages Ukraine, fights for criminal gerrymandering because they are hated by any educated sane person or any halfwit that can disconnect from tainted billionaire corporate media garbage and think for themselves; there is nothing remotely close to these two, unless you are or are massively diluted by psyops.

    Hell, if anyone gives a damn about women and unalienable human rights, they should punch any Republican in the face at every opportunity.

      At the end of the day both parties work for the same owners, and the only thing they want it’s power and money, politicians are just making a living from the budget while the real owners rule…

      You are exactly the guy a don’t encounter in real life. But I think lemme is right. The reason I don’t hear you, is because if you advocated for punching conservatives at a bar, you would get hit by a conservative. So you don’t say it out loud when that’s possible. You give permission to others when there are no consequences to yourself.
