    I just wish we had a bit more political balance here… I’m not talking about fascists, but more people that don’t blame everything on capitalism would be kind of nice…

      For real. I once had the misfortune to admit to having some Centrist ideas, and the down votes were immediate and generous. No discussion, just personal attacks.

      And we wonder how things got to where they are.

      That’s gonna be kind of an issue in a network where civil discourse and disagreement falls between calling people a Nazi/fascist at best and wishing them double death by murder rape at worst

        Just picturing that, as you type this, you have a swastika tattoo on your forehead.

        “Why is everyone so judgemental? I’m not one thing! A person contains multitudes!!!”

      [Entire world on fire] “I just wish everyone wasn’t so fixated on discussing the fire, how it started and who’s responsible…”

      You have to realize how mesmerizingly obtuse your comment is?

      If nearly everything currently wrong with the country weren’t due to capitalism run amok I could sympathize. But unfortunately it’s not the 1960s anymore.
