Believe me, I’m keeping an eye on every piece of Leftist media I find, and not just for the purpose of learning. I know Capitalism is very good at repackaging our complaints and critiques and selling them back as dopamine hits, but… there’s not much of a choice otherwise. Even the "underground networks’ " infrastructure* is owned by someone at this point…

The fact that I see and hear my family’s ethos in everything The Right does. That makes me angry beyond comprehension and motivates me to keep going out of sheer spite.

The assholes who raised me didn’t manage to break me, not enough to take me out of the game. The assholes who rule us now have their work cut out for them, because I came out stronger.

I understand where you’re coming from, honestly. But I think this is a sort of trauma response on our end (myself included) at this point. I’m not trying to pin mental illnesses on you, I’m nowhere near a licensed head doctor of any kind, I’m saying that we’ve been kicked and abused so much by the rich, that it’s only natural for those of us who broke free of the brainwashing to be on high alert, at least for a while. The continued unfolding of things surely can’t help this situation, either.

That being said, as long as he acts in good faith and is sincere and logical in his approach, which so far seems to be true, I’d say we should embrace his participation! As I see it, we need all the voices we can get. We’re already arguing semantics amongst ourselves all day long, I think it’d be a shame to let mistrust shatter “our side” without concrete proof of malicious intent.

At the end of the day, the greatest weapon the Right has is the fact that they yell united at everyone else. Let our chorus rival theirs!

Oh, yeah, I’ve been told to tone it down before, my bed and I share too fervent a passion for each other❤️

Hey, as long as they don’t gamify and manipulate things like MatchGroup do with their entire ecosystem, any app would be a better dating app than the dedicated ones…

I have a hawt date with my bed, because I’m old and tired ;) :)))

I really shouldn’t read the news 10 minutes after waking up, my brain was sure this meant that Bluesky was turning into a dating app…

Given the fact we’re well within the Overpromise/Underdeliver Century, safest to take everything with a grain of salt…

The most manipulative thing I’ve ever done is getting small children to eat their food.

For example, when I babysit my niece and she gets bored of her food, I yoink it and make-pretend that I’m stuffing my face with it. She always gets upset and demands her food back within two gulps.
