    Political Memes is socialist?

    I literally blocked it because it’s just liberals pretending to be socialist.

      I was banned from there for “misinformation” when I explained MLK’s position on moderates and linked his letter from Birmingham jail.

        A guy on there told me that I should thank liberals for the Civil Rights Act, and when I pointed to the letter from A Birmingham Jail, his response was, “and yet they passed the Civil Rights Act a year later. Curious, no?” Like…yeah dumbass, because actual progressives kept pressuring them publicly, like King did in the Birmingham letter.

    Uh…Political Memes on .world is not socialist. Much more of a, “vote blue, no matter who,” and, “but her emails,” vibe over there.

      I unfortunately learned the vegan community here is largely hexbears, made the fatal mistake of commenting on a post there (as a vegetarian)

        Throughout history, the most unimaginable pain and punishments have been issued by the fanatical unto the only very slightly less fanatical.

      My biggest gripe about the android/Apple debate is that half the “features” that android/Apple users talk about, 95% of the user base doesn’t even know how to use.

      Not every android user is a technical sevant and most Apple users are poor so they can’t take full advantage of the biggest advantage which is seamless integration with their other Apple devices. Most of us are too poor to even have the phone, let alone a MacBook, AirPods, and every dongle needed to use the device.

    It hasn’t really been my experience here. Yeah there is some.

    Have you tried being less aimless at what you subscribe here? Do you come here because you want to connect with information, or just mindlessly doom scroll and consume?

    If you’re not intentional about your social media tools, you will have a bad time.

      Or maybe it is that bad and I’m just tuning it out? I pass by a lot of stuff that I don’t interact with.

        See, you got the right idea. Lots of stuff i don’t agree with i just let it sliiiide on by.

        90% of the homies angry at the bear and .ml are that one type you already know. The type that can’t stand to see something in their feed they disagree with. Like the guys who’ll come into Apple threads to say “Android is superior lol”.

        So anyway these chuckleheads come into those socialist threads with the attitude they were gonna “teach some 14 yo commies” or some other candy-assed shit and got whiplash from gettin bounced hard by a mod.

        I love to see it. Every time a thread like this pops up a bunch of trolls come out to complain and i get to look up their mod logs to laugh at their embarrassing moments.

        Its not a great habit, schadenfreude, but it beats smoking weed
