    Yes, but not out in the open, not on every site I visit, not in the literal advertisements being forced on people, not by the president and his minions in broad daylight. No one can seriously pretend things are the same as they were back then.

      They are the same. Nazis were killing people here in the US back then too, it was just covered up because it was embarrassing for the local politicians. Sure, it was more comfortable for white people to pretend there was nothing wrong, but that didn’t mean people of color weren’t dying.

      What you’re saying is you just want to go back to being comfortable. That’s your privilege, you used to be able to pretend it wasn’t happening. Some of us never had that option.

          You know it’s not to hard to sic an algorithm on your comment history, right? You’re a white male millennial, probably in your thirties. You’re American, and identify as a democrat. You’re an atheist. You struggle with neurodivergence yourself, but you also like to make jokes at the expense of people with mental illness. You’re a PC gamer, but it’s likely you don’t have a very expensive rig because you’re lower class and probably make less than $35,000 a year. You’re most likely living in the Midwest.

          I could keep going, and probably give you your email, maybe an address, but frankly I don’t want to get banned for doxing you. And honestly, I don’t care who you are anyway.

            No keep going.

            I will say that it’s pretty funny I got almost the exact same kind of output about your account except it said you have an interest in global econ and manufacturing and that, and I quote because it’s hysterical, “their dismissive attitude towards alternative viewpoints could suggest a lack of openness to differing perspectives.”
