    forget about Politics

    Yup. Anything that is actually on top or popular these days is just people jerking about "Orang Man Still Bad" or how just one dem senator is holding up literally everything. Or how Kamala/Joe did some wholesome, meaningless gesture. Then you flip to controversial sort and find articles with actual meat talking about how much of a clown Joe/Dem establishment are for various things.

    Like for instance, today it was Kamala EMPHATICALLY telling Latin Americans not to come to the US

    Oh yeah, and the Biden admin subpoenad journalist's calls

    And they have kept Trump restrictions on Cuba, despite saying otherwise. And shit, that's just controversial today lmao. Meanwhile, top 5 of this week, for r/neoliberal2:

    Sanders Reminds Americans not a single R voted for 1400

    A lot of Dem voters didn't vote for that either, they voted for 2k

    Big corps celebrate pride after donating to anti lgbtq politicians and orgs

    The duality of mega-corporations

    Nevada governor expands mail in voting

    Oh god I'm gonna VOOOOOOOTEEE

    Texas AG says trump might've lost Texas if they had mail in ballots more readily available

    ORANG MAN BAD

    JPMORGAN stops donating to GOP legislators who tried to overturn election

    'Good' capitalism in action. So, 2 voting, 1 good capitalism, 1 on the 'promised' checks, and 1 about how megacorps are in it for the money. In summation: nothing remotely new, informative, or significant to anyone with a frontal lobe.

      Swing and a miss on this one, comrade.

      Otherwise, good summary.

        Maybe; I always feel like with r/politics, the presence of anything in the last election cycle not attributable to Biden is there because of Trump. To me, this was massive to them in the context of 'blue wave' and all of the 'Texas is finally gonna go blue' rhetoric, especially because they wanted it only as a repudiation of Trump and his politics (and nothing to do with helping the people of Texas or even necessarily the broader idea of electoral manipulation).

        Maybe that's too cynical of me though
