I keep trying to tell myself that I'm the only Republican on a Democrat heavy forum, and that I should just not say anything when anti-Trump/anti-Republican remarks get said. I'll do my best moving forward.
That's not what I'm saying. You can say something, just do so in a mature manner, not with a "suck it, you lost" attitude.
This is why we've literally lost political discourse to this, on both sides of the pond.
You literally cannot make any kind of point now without the worst kind of tribalism, especially if you're not agreeing with anything Trump says.
Just try posting something not 100% positive about trump on social media, you'll be bombarded with pictures of liberal tears mugs and t-shirts for a while even before someone tries to insult you based on the actual point you made.
I've even seen pro-trump people get it just for saying they didn't like his tie/car/hat whatever minor thing they were mentioning that day.
It's not politics any more, it's like a cult. Sadly one in which both sides try to outdo each other by being the shittiest human beings possible.
Look at this, it's a NASCAR thread and it's changing from Team/driver loyalties to politics again, it's literally infecting every single thing with it's shittiness.
(And, personally, I come to sites like this to get away from the "real world", don't think I've posted more than one or two posts in the politics thread, it's either boring or depressing and nothing in between)
Anyway yeah, rant over....NASCAR thread huh?
