Nope.
I’m not from the USA, but it’s common knowledge you shouldn’t talk about politics or religion if you want to stay friends/couple… Which is weird, like, why would I want to stay friends with someone who doesn’t support things like having better working conditions or better healthcare or eating the rich? I guess it was one of those weirdos that said that to prevent being questioned and exposed.
This, believing it only happens in the USA is a narrow and stupid take.
Uusally too much hopium and copium, like most takes are extremely simplistic so they end up being ‘everything will be ok’ as a solution to everything, leading to conformism instead of actually giving (me) hope.
To me hope is not believing that ‘everything will be ok’ in a world where everything (for me) keeps getting worse (at any scale, not just globaly), something that gives me some hope is that by enduring the pain of exercising I can delay the heart problems that run in my family and keeping my body from getting worse, it’s not a solution, it’s not permanent, things won’t get better, it won’t give me a job… but it’s something concrete that I can do, not just ‘don’t worry’ as a solution.
So far the only take I’ve agreed on this community, bravo.
I mean… Here in México, the most fascist political group keeps yelling they are the left while sidding with Trump, Putin, the CCP and Maduro, and attack everyone who dares to question or criticise them with thousands of bots who throw those projections into others.
And it worked, there are idiots who drank the koolaid and they got an even bigger win in the past elections.
If it keeps working they’ll keep doing it.

I’m actually thinking about it, most of the content from my country is just propaganda and manipulated news and every time I try to correct it I get downvoted to hell.
The rest is the same content I can already find in Reddit or content I don’t really care about.
Also that thing about my posts/comments never really getting deleted or not allowing me to delete something if a power tripping mod from ml bans me, still bothers me.
Edit: also a lot of instances also block the nsfw ones for whatever reason… So that makes it even harder.
