I’m politically active. I voted. I’m excited on how things turned out for my state and feel well represented. I’m glad others feel the same way. But I agree, every post being about the election results is almost as annoying as the endless campaign calls and texts I was getting. I don’t need 3 posts a minute y’all 😭
Exactly. I was out at my usual karaoke night with friends, we did a shot to celebrate when the AP called our state’s election, and we carried on. I’m still having discussions about various losses and wins and campaigns with people but the YEAH WE WON WOOOOOO being posted by the same people over and over and over bs is uneducated disingenuous and annoying lol
Normal meaning don’t go goddamn crazy. But I agree with your points. I’m just wondering I guess, what happen to not speaking about your political views in public. There was a time when I was a child that we (at least I was) told that we shouldn’t talk about how we view them things outloud cuz it can cause division and problems for no reason.
They do speak to your values I agree. But not everyone is just a dem or republican. You can agree with one side on one thing and the other about another thing. What does that make you then? My point is that no one is just a straight line thinker (I hope) so to shit on someone for not seeing eye to eye with you on certain things ain’t right.
Letting it consume your life vs being a part of your life are incredibly different. Just like doomer politics vs being civically engaged are different. Like I said, I’m very politically active and I’m actively a part of discussions dissecting campaigns of various politicians today. Especially focusing on Nixon in Florida. But am I depressed at her loss and letting it consume me? No. Am I making posts constantly about how I believe she could’ve been more successful? No.
Abortion is a human right anyone who would think that it is not is stupid. End of story. No other discussion needed a fetus is not more valuable than a fully grown female woman or teenager. That’s a deal breaker for me. Can fully fuck off trying to control other peoples lives and what they can and can’t do with their bodies. Party of free will? Party of freedom? What a fucking joke
It’s people like me who are the reason people like you have the rights to choose to stay out of this. I’ve said it plenty of times to you fence sitting assholes. The only reason you have the ability to stay neutral is because of people on the left fighting for your right to do so. Pray revolution never happens here. History was not kind to fence sitters in the countries that experienced revolutions. Food for thought.
I feel a part you’re also missing is we can understand people’s stances without agreeing with them. And that’s pretty vital to actually finding solutions people don’t violently oppose. And you can’t understand them if you completely remove people who don’t totally agree with you from your life
You keep anti abortion friends around you because you literally stand for nothing that’s more than enough reason to not have them in your life. Don’t act you’re leftwing at all. You’re a coward and you should have never posted anything negative about peoples reactions to the mid terms
So you turn a blind eye when you have something difficult to make a choice on. Has Israel been committing a genocide? Has the Republican Party protected pedophile billionaires? Do you support LGBTQIA people to be acknowledged as members of society and to not be attacked and targeted as scapegoats?
Never said that. Yes Israel is genocidal. That doesn’t mean I think we are stuck with those genocidal policies and our politicians that allow them forever. Republican and Democrats have actively protected them for decades. That doesn’t mean I think it’s over and pedos will rule us all forever. Considering I’m queer I’d hope I support my folks and see the oppression we actively save. doesn’t mean I think we should off ourselves en masse bc it will never get better and we’re stuck here.
If it’s guns then you’re right however I believe reform is needed and perhaps licensing for certain types of firearms much like we have for cars. I don’t believe in absolutely 0 gun laws and definitely do not approve of untraceable firearms. But if it’s anything else you are flat out wrong but I’d like to see you try to spin that.
Doomer isn’t about the topics. It’s how we engage in them. Thinking everything is over and will never get better and our lives will be miserable forever, which is the mentality you have, is doomer. I have hope things will get better. I have the drive to do that. I know I will live a happy and fulfilling life despite the challenges forced onto us. I know I have the means to make it possible for others too. That’s anti doomer
I don’t have that mentality I just think the OP made this post because they are ignorant to the world around and is an outright coward for not giving context to a comment they made I don’t really care if it’s a troll or not. They made the comment and now they refuse to back it up with examples. If you make the comment and refuse to elaborate on it. You no longer have any credibility so the OP will be ignored from this point on since they can’t even name the things they claim to support.
