Sure, there are always outliers and you can correct me if I’m wrong, but that’s just the overall impression I have.

(I wasn’t sure if [email protected] or this community would fit better for this kind of question, but I assume it fits here.)

    You’re right, everything is black-and-white absolutes. I don’t know how I could have thought “westerners” are actually millions of individuals with distinct morals, ideals and behaviors. My bad!

      NOW you understand! 😜

      Those kinds of messages seem to have worked - if not here bc we’re so tiny then at least overall. After all, we collectively decided together that BoTh SiDeS sAmE tHo and therefore elected Trump who ofc “is the same as Harris would have been irt the Gaza situation” (except not, if facts mattered, but since they don’t… then sure).

        We didn’t collectively decide both sides are the same. The people who decided that were 10 million fucktwats who voted for Biden in 2020 but decided to ignore reality this year and let the convicted criminal win. They’re still polishing their moral purity halos for that.

          It was shit all around but it’s already the past, the question in my mind now is how we can learn from it and move forward. It will be rough going it seems, with a looming shutdown even before the new administration begins.:-(

            Tbh I can’t be objective about US politics right now. I’m going to ignore the Bonespurs administration as much as possible for a while. Hopefully over the next four years the righteous abstainers will figure out that refusing to vote didn’t work out well for them. Otherwise it will be the United States of MAGA and we’re probably fucked.
