    I don’t think it’s that – I can only speak for myself but my instant reaction to bad news about Biden from one of a handful of specific users who tend to post it several times to day come rain or come shine is “bro just give it a fucking rest and let the rest of us organically talk politics.”

          Good lord that was a frustrating read. Particularly the lack of a response to a clear question and the “oops I can’t find the link” I am basing this entire argument on.

          But still, this post in itself is fine imo

            Yeah talking to them is a blast 🥲. The message he was responding to with the linked monologue actually also asked how much money went to oil and gas companies, and instead of answering he did that. When I distilled it down into only asking again a relevant question about what he was claiming had happened, he fell silent.

      I feel this, it does come with the usual suspects that leave their skewed analysis as well. Had someone last week proclaim that Biden didn’t care about abortion the day after the SOTU, seemingly because he didn’t do the Roe V. Wade by fiat. I’m left wondering if it is simply ignorance or something more, until I see the same usernames that is.

      Posting doom is fine, I will actively downvote reposts though. 18 posts about a single event, many of them the same title and link is just annoying. Even moreso when it’s bad data.
