Same. I paid some attention to the tail end of Obama's but no deep diving. This is infuriating because of how relentlessly effective it is. So many people championing the 1400, and ignoring the step down from 2000. So many not caring about kids in cages any longer. So many not caring about the press secretary requesting questions in advance or making homophobic comments on Twitter, and not caring about so many other things.
I remembered them not caring about much, but I forgot how aggressively apathetic they were about what Obama's admin did.
And I don't know if this is a sad thing or a good thing, but I've just stopped getting riled up and constantly fighting this shit online.
There's just no point in combatting it anymore. It genuinely is the lamest, weakest cult. Especially on R*ddit. It's just an endless steam of neoliberal posters calling the Dems' shit chocolate and asking for a second helping.
For right now at least I'm content to teach and forget that hellsite even exists. I know what I think and don't need to affirm it in petty arguments online with Dem drones.
Yeah, I've long since stopped going to any political subreddits, and 99% of the larger ones; I just peruse some of the sports related ones, or the handful of leftwing meme/joke ones that are left
I was just out of hs when Obama was elected and was in the “back to brunch” crowd, after 8 years of bush taking us to war for oil and being a ‘disgrace to the office’ for being unintelligent.
It was the same shit then, “hope” “change” “we’re gonna get out of these unjust wars!” “No more torture” and then it was the same shit: manufactured excuses for 8 years about why we had to do the bad stuff and then we had trump.
That’s why it’s hilarious to me to see libs repeating this set it and forget it shit with Biden’s admin.
It's honestly funny/terrifying how quickly consent machine goes brrrrr.
This is my first Dem presidency where I'm like paying attention (2016 was my first election) and damn do they work tirelessly.
Stunning how many people have bought into the $1400+$600 line. I'm sure some are bought but God damn it went from 0-100 fast.
