    I’ve recently been cooking while my mom played the Colbert Report in the background. It’s so strange to view the aperture that liberals see the world through. I don’t really think about Stormy Daniel’s hush money. I haven’t thought about Putin sans that meme about him explaining the conflict with Ukraine. I don’t think about Ukraine except that it’s not my clown, not my circus. She caught me off guard when I asked her about the super bowl and she wanted the 49ers to win because she thought Taylor Swift would endorse Brandon in front of everyone if they did.

    It’s as if I have more in common with the Trump Thumpers because we’re both talking about FBI conspiracies, warmongering, corrupt billionaires, and the like. But we’re not in the same walled garden as the libs.

      If you gave a chud that mistrusted the FBI, the MIC, and other institutions the ability to fact check their information, and a bit of empathy (this is the hard part), you’d get an alright leftist, at worst a Stupidpoler. If you had to give a liberal enough history lessons to get them to stop idolizing those institutions, you’d die of old age.
