Everyone who wants to just agree with their team sucks.
Back to the topic:I've gone back and forth on this a lot in the last couple days. In a vacuum, idgaf about Trump as an individual being banned, but there seems to be such a double standard here that it's difficult to determine how it isn't a political stance, which is worrisome to me. There are too many posts from left leaning politicians/other world leaders that go un touched for it not to be. As a mostly right leaning person, I'm also worried that the end game here is pretty simple, because the Dems now control basically all forms of MSM, big tech, education, etc-basically any way to control messaging. I've generally thought the Dems suck at strategy, but if this was always their endgame, it was played brilliantly by them.
Another fear I have is that this radicalizes the far right even more. Seems likely tbh.
My ultimate hope is that eventually the far right cedes, the far left gets cut off, and we can somehow get a third party out of this with ideals closer to the majority of what most American's want/need, and not what makes politicians the most money. Seems unlikely, though.
