You know what. This is why they have such a strangle hold on public opinion. This is what most people are out there saying he's such a great person and good Christian.
Facebook? No thanks.
You win buddy. You showed them.
👏 👏 👏
Don't get salty. A lot of folks don't use that anymore, it's a boomer platform for hate politics.
I am salty though. I'm so tired of all you people acting like you'll punch a Nazi without doing any work because it gives you all the ick.
The left are lazy. The older I get the more this becomes apparent. That just makes me angry. They have turned into essentially worms hiding in dirt. Then they ask why is everyone so crazy and why don't people see things the way they see things. You're not going to punch any Nazis. You're not fighters. The left are spineless Bougie worms who don't want to get dirty. More people should be angry at that.
Let me just ask you a question to highlight how fucked we are. Right now you find a clip of say majority report segment roasting Trump. Where are you posting that to share with other people in any meaningful way?
I'm not going to punch anyone because I'm not a violent psychopath. I'm also not going to post whatever stupid video you're talking about anywhere because I don't flag my politics on the internet. I think people who do it need to stop.
Now that I've answered your question, answer mine: why did you get on the internet in the first place? Was it to read about culture war politics and get angrier and angrier as the days and weeks and years go by? Because that's what you're doing. Did you buy a smartphone and click all the happy little buttons and now you want to spread your opinions about dumb ass politics everywhere? When do you people all get bored and leave? Why don't you all just go away? When are you going to realize nobody cares?
No, I didn’t get on the Internet for those things. They came to the Internet because it’s the easiest way for ideas to spread.
You can say you’re above it all, but you can’t really avoid it. Maybe twenty years ago, when things were quieter, that might have worked. But not today. I honestly can’t understand how anyone thinks they can escape politics online by just running to different corners of the Internet.
People aren’t going to get bored and just leave. That’s not how it works anymore. The only thing that slows the spread of ideas is resistance and right now, because so many people checked out, that resistance is weak. And in that vacuum, things have grown worse: women lost abortion rights, the right is close to branding the left as terrorists, budgets for prisons, police, and the military keep going up, and those forces are being used against cities that oppose them. They’ve taken over nearly all social media, shaping what your friends and family see every day.
Thinking they’ll get tired of all that power and influence and just walk away isn’t realistic. And acting indifferent only makes it easier for them to keep winning ground.
Your mind is gone. The corporate culture war has it now. Take my advice, don't ever leave Facebook. It's safe there for you.
Sure bud. It's all made up by the rich. It's all fake news you get to tune out and click on cat pictures all day.
You even think you're expressing independent thoughts right now. You're not. You're repeating a script. I was there when they wrote it. I saw them test the best ways to program it into your brain. Your weak, spongy mind sucked it right up because you were desperate for something to hold onto. Doesn't it bother you that everywhere you go, your existing biases are confirmed? You really don't understand that's by design. Who do you think the designer is? It's you. Rich, powerful people created the environment that reinforces your thoughts and behavior. One day you'll look back on these wasted days and cringe so hard your neck will swallow your head like a turtle.
Oh wow, this convinced me to go on Facebook for the first time in 15 years...
Lol jk
How's it going on Facebook? Are all your friends and family on their having totally rational discussions on current events?
It isn't like giving other people unrestricted access to the post propaganda to people in your life would ever have consequences.
Not sure why you're asking me lol
You removed yourself from Facebook and don't see the issue?
