A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Posts must be original/unique
- Be good to others - no bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

MODERATORS
In their defense, they don't see the authoritarian boot and feel compelled to lick. They see how their hated enemy, normal people, get upset because of that authoritarian boot and in response lick the shit out of it so those normal people feel sad.
Which backfires because we typically don't feel sad and they look like idiots.
It doesn't get much dumber (and easy to manipulate) than to define what you stand for entirelly per opposition to what some other people stand for.
Normal people get over such a form of self-definition somewhere in their teenage years.
