    Perhaps you should consider people as more than what they post on social media, especially given how many of those platforms have a financial interest in showing you things that make you mad. I don’t see much political relevancy in the sentiment that the problem with the current political climate is that people aren’t voting hard enough, but if you’re committed to complaining online that people spend too much time online complaining and not enough time voting harder, then I wish you luck.

      Perhaps you should also not assume what others do. I don’t have any social media accounts where I would see curated information. Aside from lemmy.

      Which, if you are going to suggest lemmy is biased towards being anti-SJW, I’m going to laugh my ass off and not take anything you say seriously.

        And yet you’re conversant in the idea of SJWs and keyboard warriors. Where did you come by that idea, and who are these people whose political existence is so sharply limited to online discourse?

          I didn’t just come to this idea, everyone pretty much did around 2011. Look it up.

            I was there for it, and watched it happen. I’m familiar with the sort of people who popularized the idea that Social Justice is something to be derided. I’m not too keen on basing my idea of what is bad social justice on the definition that comes to us from the people who thought journalistic malpractice was based on who Zoe Quinn’s ex was mad at.

                you are a sad person. no substance, no spine.

                go ahead, call me “kiddo.” tell me how you’re totally super active in local politics. say “propagandist” again. say all the shit you’re busy repeating here, day in, day out.

                  Propagandist. (Only doing what you asked)

                  I’m seeing that you seem to have no problem with all the “don’t vote!” And anti-Biden bullshit here. So maybe we shouldn’t be taking a stance on the bias of others here, hmmmm?
