Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

I'm glad it makes sense to you.
The thing is that I've spent 4 years of going into my city and listening to liberals whine about Trump's garbage of the day, and another 4 years of them passively accepting Biden's presidency.
Liberalism is a dead ideology, and if they are not going to realize how fascist the United States is and start leaning directly into resisting that, then they obviously don't hate what's going on as much as I do. I am a socialist, I care about my community and hate what capitalism is doing to it. It is unacceptable to let Trump soak up 4 more years of potential action.
We start with "we need to form Cascadia and leave the US" and work backwards to something that is actually achievable (like, "we need to get socialists into the city/state government", or, "let's pick up where Bernie left off and pass universal healthcare in our states, since the US isn't going to do it")
It has been quite interesting to bring this topic up in real life. Turns out it's a bit of a wedge issue haha. Just like the Bernie campaign though, it resonates with people who are more progressive than Democrats and many who are not politically engaged.
