Agreed.
And, it’s a bit uncanny how eerily close this is to that of the far left when they accuse anyone that’s a hair’s width right of the bat-shit insanity of Stalin of being in support of genocide.
They have distanced themselves so far from an alt-right ideology- that they have circled all the way back around to being comparatively identical in their absence of logic.
EDIT: take note how well my point was made in the responses I’ve received. I’ve been accused of both being “programmed” and being a member of truth social- just for points out the fact that there are people who will immediately accuse you of being something you’re not- just because you disagree with them.
(For the record: this was purposefully done to net these results. Some people are so predictable, you can essentially get them to prove your point for you).
You can be deprogrammed. You dont have to feel this way any more. You can be a happy empathetic member of the human race.
Isn’t this a bit too similar to how you all complained when people accused you of being paid bots during the election? Which is similar to how trump’s minions accuse anyone that disagrees with them of being anti-American?
It’s almost as if you’re trying to prove my point for me, but you’re too busy trying to be smug to notice.
Totally
