        They even have a whole community, [email protected]

        …or rather there’s a handful of people posting stories there just to be downvoted by random lemm.ee users browsing the local feed, often followed up by getting dissected in the comments.

          That’s a great place to go if you want to argue about Southern Strategy. You can experience well-considered positions such as, “name the exact day or it is fake,” “nuh uh,” and “no, you.”

          I tried going here. I was hoping for a post-Trump community, but that place is led by a fascist mod. His whole post history is asking for good faith arguments while delivering bad faith. The mod ACTUALLY believes the words coming out of Trump’s mouth. He’ll tell you how the crazy left is fighting for an open border and they hate our country. It’s not reality. It’s not even head-in-the-sand. It’s pure fairy tale.

        There’s like four of us. But we get down voted a lot and quickly banned from most.

        We’re not common.

            Cuz mods are shit everywhere and our views are unpopular. They will deliberately misinterprete comments, looking for awful meanings that don’t even make sense.

              Like how you deliberately misinterpret LGBT-themed books as being literal pornography?

              Always fun to check a regressive’s comment history and see what they’re actually crying about.

                Gender queer specifically has a picture of a blowjob. It’s explicit. It’s not meant to titalate, it’s meant to prevent the book from being put on school shelves so the author can complain conservatives are oppressing free speech.

                Most lgbtq books are fine. It’s that one specifically that keeps coming up. It’s just bait.
