    Probably because people who point out hypocrisy or ask a community to do better than the other side often results in them being echochambered out and Reddit mods love to permaban anyone who disagrees with their strict opinions.

    And before you ask. No, that didn’t happen to me. I just really like raunchy ass porn.

      In the last month, specifically? I don’t disagree with what you’re saying but it seems to be targeted, time-wise.

      It’s also rather beside the point in the American two party system, with current hardline far right people in leadership. Both sides do commit atrocities, but the current administration is speed running the collapse of the world order.

        It’s so funny that you think the uptick in critiques of Dems in the last month is specifically because the bot farms are spinning up and not because there’s an uptick in electioneering that the critics are able to visibly respond to

          It’s not so funny that you ignore years of reports about people in other countries paid to post on social media.

          It’s neither fully one thing or the other, but ignorance of foreign interference only helps them win.

            I think billionaire interference is more prominent than foreign interference. You have news stations, Republicans and Democrats all spouting the same pro-Israel, anti-socialism rhetoric.

              Well, yes. It’s hard to see someone’s entire comment history in a thread, but if you stalked me, you will find me repeatedly railing against our oligarchs as the primary problem we must solve - wealth inequality is the primary problem in the US, all else stems from that or is related, imho.

              But that has little to do with the comment to which I was replying. :)

                I think it’s prettyyyy related. I mean what kind of comments are we even talking about against dems?

              I won’t say what I think about people who don’t understand basic logic, but I will say that’s an amazing leap of “logic” there, friend.
