It's obnoxious, really...
Watched all of my homies go from relatively okay people in 2014, to getting caught up in all of the "Koolaid" and eventually straight up just finding any old reason to label and box each other.
Started with some friends worried about Trump and what would happen to illegal immigrants, next thing you know... I'm going to bars and people are lambasting me for being an Anarchist and not liking either Hillary OR Trump as candidates, shit only got worst from there.
The two downvotes from clowns is another sign of that.
Social Media has tricked people into thinking that consensus matters more than truth- which has been utilized by both sides, to no end.
Now, it doesn't matter who's right or wrong- people look at the number of folks in agreement.
This has led to sooo many stupid opinions and a fuckton of entitlement culture.

Our oligarchs have done an amazing job at dividing people up among party lines, racial lines, identity lines. People get all riled up over bullshit, while letting the wealthy get away with screwing us all economically.

Yep. Watching "accountability" become a virtue signal was one thing, but watching things get so bad in this country and that same word seem to not be mentioned, when it came time for Liberals to own up to their own fake shit was pretty much it for me.
I realized that this country is fucked from the inside, out.
It is what it is though... I'm out, lol.
