I constantly see angry mobs of people decrying “woke”, “critical race theory”, ““grooming””, and whatever other nonsense they made up this week. They march around with guns, constantly appending lib as a prefix to any word they can use to denigrate. They actively plot violence and spew hatred in the open.

You never see the inverse. There is no ConservativesofTiktok getting churches harassed into shutting down for the day or calling in threats. You don’t see cringey boomer memes on the left. And whenever I openly express those feelings, try to create that sentiment; I get shut down. Noone agrees, I’m often shamed and muted. I just don’t understand why that parity exists, it’s extremely isolating to feel so alone in this

    It is too late in the evening in the time zone I am in right now to hear libertarian ideas being taken seriously.

    You know how when you had a long day and someone wants to explain to you whatever conspiracy crap they buy into but you can’t? You just have no energy left to even pretend there is something of value there.

    Go watch V for Vendetta and read some Rothbard if you feel you need to.

      Oh you’re one of those kinds of people. Gotcha. Well sorry me reminding you that governments like power makes you exhausted.

        Yes I am one of those people who thinks welfare programs and environmental regulations are a small price to pay for the benefits we as a whole get from them. But hey why not just move to the many countries in the world that don’t bother with them?

          Brother when did I ever say anything about any sort of social safety net. I think you’re arguing with the wrong person.
