Sometimes I miss the 2016 version of myself, where I would get a mild dopamine boost about funny jokes about the orange man, or seeing a celebrity endorse my favorite DNC war criminal - blissfully unaware of global politics, war, and genocide.

      Oh yeah. I felt like it was pretty neutral overall, though the crossposts with the_leftorium were always well-received. Now at least a third of the posts are just the most low-effort, r/politics-comment-over-a-simpsons-scene dreck. There’s no way that shit’s totally organic.
