edit: seems like some people interpret “full of” as a mathematical majority which, while it may or might not be true instance to instance, isn’t my intent in posting

feel free to swap in “has a lot of” if that’s more familiar language to you :)

I’m with you. I live in a red state in the north, in a small island of blue, but if I drive for a few minutes in any direction it’s trump signs & bigotry.

I feel like I’m surrounded by idiots. They’re bringing my state down with them. It’s horrifying.

Sending love ❤️ I truly hate to see would be-“progressives” laughing at the senseless deaths and violence just because some 30% of them voted a certain way.

It’s one of the ways that capital keeps the culture war lit, I find. Breed hatred and dehumanization for a people group while gleefully stripping that people group from self-determination at every opportunity.

I'm seeing a very ugly side around Lemmy the last couple of days. It's nice to see posts like this!

If something is despicable when your adversary does it, then it is despicable when you do it.

It's been around in related forms, for a while; the reactions to just any comment where someone points out or mentions eugenics usually are good ones (arguably, the argument that's caught on around here that brain damage is literally conservativism is a great example of that general thinking and eugenics-adjacent (and ablism-directly!)).

We are not immune to propaganda! ❤️ It’s on all of us to help each other out, finding our blind spots.
