You’re at +6/-6 at 3hr in. Wonder if those six downvoters checked for themselves or assumed you were fibbing.
One thing I love about being on this instance is I'm blissfully unaware because downvotes are disabled. This is what I see.
American Democrats think anyone who criticizes their actions -- such as opening more concentration camps, continuing Trump's wall (yes, that wall), arming genocidal states, and taking power away from the working class -- anyone who criticizes these things MUST be a right-wing shill.
I'm not joking. That's really what they think. I get it all the time. Hence the downvotes, and hence the unfounded claims about OP.
Ahh…
So satisfying, on the other hand, to see posts reach +400 without dissent…
It also gives a good town hall kind of feel, like I get a sense of how many people are in the room and how many are shaking their heads.
