Most of the time when people say they have an unpopular opinion, it turns out it’s actually pretty popular.

Do you have some that’s really unpopular and most likely will get you downvoted?

    It feels like as soon as Biden got into office a lot of people on the left threw their BLM signs in the garbage and stopped caring. Now I’m starting to see more and more on the left detach themselves from people of color and go right back to the white worship they were doing before. Every single time a person of color is now a lead in anything there’s just nothing but endless controversy and both conservatives and liberals just complain

    But put a white person in a lead? Nothing but sunshine and “we’re starting to heal” nonsense

    Really sick of it now, and it’s completely soured me on wanting to vote again

      This happens every time a lib gets into the Waffle House - the liberals will ride the coat tails of the resistance the left puts up against the establishment, and go to sleep as soon as the “good cop” is back in the driving seat. It happened with Obama and Clinton, too.

      If you look at it real hard, you’ll see that right-wing agitation builds most of it’s momentum when there is a lib in charge - there’s a good reason they say that fascism can only sprout after liberals have loosened the ground for it.

      I mean how long can a movement go on and stay relevant? It was active for years before Biden

      It’s the USA, not only what is called democracy in there is far from being even close to one, both parties are slaves to money. It only changes whose money: the big urban corporations, or the crazy individualist lunatics

      It’s moreso that everyone feels defeated, Bernie lit a fire and then didn’t continue to fan the flames.
