This shit is so annoying, even the “communist” subs are filled with ultras and liberals. They’re all so chronically online and just obnoxious
I’m getting more involved with FRSO shit anyways, so I’ll have less time to spend on there. Never was useful anyways.
Fuck these idiots
I still have mine for following sports and some games stuff but yeah it’s impossible to escape. Guess it’s by design
I notice the shit everywhere. From kids and family shows to churches, social media, and education, regardless of state. They really do introduce it and hammer it in from the earliest opportunity.
I know it’s just the internet but it’s really disturbing how many people automatically think this way without even stopping to think about whether any of it is true, they just state it like it’s already accepted fact.
Sadly not just the internet. I meet a lot of people who are too quick to believe anything bad they hear about “enemy” countries, no matter how absurd.
And they don’t even stop to think about how bad it is here, just that it’s not like [insert anticommunist propaganda of any AES country here]
Agreed. I’ve seen so many people here get 80% to a meaningful conclusion explaining why our country is the way it is, but they always refuse to finish the logic. Instead, they jump to some racist theory that a foreign power has corrupted the US, and therefore whatever element they disagree with is un-American sedition. Conservatives insist it’s Muslim or Chinese infiltration. Liberal progressives think it’s Russians. Nobody wants to admit it’s just all our insanity coming to a head.
The greatest irony is that they’ll admit the government lies, big lies are told all the time, and we get tricked all the time. But introduce the concept that they lie about socialist countries, point out the consistency and pervasiveness of the lies, and that the US has everything to gain from lying, and they’ll call that a conspiracy theory. Even if you produce evidence, like CIA admissions to lying. I feel like I’m insane half the time.
