    You’ve mistake me for a republican and or a conservative. I’m neither.

    I’m against echo chambers and “my side and their views are right by default, all others are wrong” views. That’s what this community seems to be, unquestionably. Look at everything that’s posted - it’s all anti-republican/conservative.

    Again - your entire post just proves my point.

        I’m a leftist, and I’m “mistaken” for a republican all the time.

        The current “left” seems to be “as soon as you disagree with any of my points, you’re a MAGA Trumper Republican Nazi”.

        You can be trying to fight climate change, want all people to have equal rights, be pushing for a UBI, supporting reparations for indigenous people, but the second you dare say “hey maybe we should just keep the books telling you how to have anal sex away from the 10 year olds?” you’re instantly a nazi.

        The only person you’re fooling is yourself.

        Also, “leftism” isn’t a party.

        And I’m not dehumanizing anyone. They’re all human. Just very shitty versions.

      Politics and vitriol aside, well done on winning the Ashes. The fifth test starting tomorrow should be a cracker.

        Cheers. Pretty shitty way to win tbh. I hate draws in a sport where a match has gone for 5 bloody days.
