Oh boy another thread where we get to debate third parties

[–] Rhaedas@fedia.io 39 points 6 days ago

Washington was referring to any political parties, as well as foreign influencers. It may be difficult in a fast paced sound bite world, but debating core ideas and solutions themselves should be what we do, not this sports politics where single words become the shouted arguments. I listen to some talk shows where the callers are shut down all because the host will ask them what they mean by the word or phrase they use as a rebuttal, and they don't know what it means at all, only that they heard/read it somewhere and it sounded good. "Woke" is a great one, and one I often see online here too.

Wasn't my intent, just general dissatisfaction with how systemic this bullshit is
