SoylentNews is people

the world’s slackening grip on reality

Journal by c0lo

(in the loving memory of Runaway1956, who succumbed after a long battle to gatewaypundits. May his brain rest in peace, squeaky clean and smoothed over)

because "Doing your own research" is far easier nowadays than building the habit of thinking critically.
Add COVID-anxiety, a chaotic narcissistic Orange clown and compound with the lack of survival problems to solve for the everyday life in a westernized society and (where appropriate) a good dose of American exceptionalism.

    A) Ds not nearly to the same extent as Rs, by a huge margin
    B) We tried to have good manners for most of the last 4 years, but
    C) Legitimate complaints about Trump and his administration were met with "some people put[ting] political ideology ahead of facts and reality"
    D) Full circle

    Simple fact is that Rs are deep into fake news and authoritarianism. The problem is not with Ds right now, and continued gaslighting will only earn you further scorn. I think I speak for most liberals, we are done trying to compromise with bad faith entitled people who hypocritically give crimes and abuses of power a total pass when it is their team.

    If you want to complain about instances of Ds being hypocrites then get your own house in order first. Until I see a conservative show some humility and admit to reality I will treat them as hostile agents.
