It’s funny they’re still boycotting the NFL. They all supposedly finished boycotting it during the kneeling and BLM controversies that occurred years ago.

They’re essentially opting out of all of the cultural ties they had to America at large. They only want to associate with their own cultists. Aside from the irony of them creating a safe space, they’re also creating a breeding ground for militants and extremists. It’s no surprise we had a guy chop his dad’s head off for being a government employee.

That's quite a bomb to drop in your last sentence. Gonna need a source on that one.

I thought we were all looking at the same 10 posts here!

This is exactly how it feels 😂 compared to Reddit, I actually really enjoy that. This still has a cozy community vibe, kinda like Reddit did back in 2012 or 2013. Then it all just kinda fractured. Not really a bad thing, as Reddit hosts so many close community, but I do miss how it felt in its earlier years where the entire site had this kinda kindred feeling about it.

I hope we all get to experience this more one day when we completely bungle an attempt to correctly identify a domestic terrorist
