Edit: I want to say that if certain people weren’t dead set on trolling I would have engaged in the argument that the US is already authoritarian. I’m inclined to fully agree. The constitution was written by wealthy whites wanting to preserve their own power. They did sprinkle in some democracy and we do thank them for that. All this to say, that was never my contention.

Conventionally ideology is measured on a spectrum. If being moderately authoritian offends you, move the fuck left.

      I didn’t say anything about forum rules. Upvotes are irrelevant. And yes, I’m wasting your time, apparently quite successfully, and with your apparent eagerness too. Keep wasting your time. Keep writing like a middle school kid bragging about how his dad can beat up someone else’s dad. I’m sure you’ll get that jealousy and respect you think you deserve. I’ll just be here dying every second.

          Is sealioning mentioned in the rules? I hadn’t checked.

          I think this is hilarious. I’m talking to someone who acts like a kid who thinks they just invented being obnoxious on the internet.

          If you don’t want respect then you’re terrible at acting like it. People who don’t care what others think don’t brag anonymously and call randos jealous when they don’t know anything concrete about you to be jealous of other than your weak trolling.

          I’m guessing if you have an ex-wife, she probably complains about you. This is literally the first time I’ve commented in this community but you think I’m a regular. You’re great at reading people. Keep it up! You’ll get there someday…maybe…

              This isn’t Reddit, in case you hadn’t noticed.

              Do you read fortunes? There isn’t enough context in our brief exchange for you to know anything meaningful about me. You really like the shadowbox with straw men.

              I’m so mad! This is just awful. Some Dunning-Kruger University graduate is schooling me in how awesome his life is! Make your money writing whatever bullshit you want. Even trolls have to eat, especially when they’re bad at bridge guarding. Tell Chat GPT I said hi next time you “write” an article.
