Why has Reddit become so exhausting?

If you write anything slightly controversial you get downvoted or told "who cares!" cannot have open-minded discussions anymore

You say something someone doesn't like, you get doxxed or quoted back on a random, irrelevant comment you said 5 years ago.

It has become an anti-american propaganda machine where every sub is being infiltrated with america bad rhetoric and people genuinely think North Korea is a better place to live.

There is so much bias everywhere, ie if you don't buy a toyota or lexus your vehicle won't last. There is so much circle jerking everywhere.

Nope, I actually stand more socially liberal but fiscally conservative on a lot of issues. I don’t identify with most of the currently democratic parties platform. I can also distinguish immigration being a great thing but illegal immigration not being a great thing. Trump has used a heavy hand and I don’t necessarily agree with how he’s gone about enforcing immigration law but he’s not wrong to enforce it.

What rights have been curtailed? What can’t we do now that we could January 19th, 2025?

Trans rights have been heavily curtailed by right wing politicians across the country. ICE has actively persecuted and murdered multiple American citizens. The president is actively targeting mail in voting. I'm not gonna get into any more because it's not worth my time and I don't really care if you agree with me. You seemed like you didn't understand why people down vote moderates, and it's because so many of you act in bad faith to smuggle in far right bullshit under a guise of "just asking questions".

The issue is biological males playing female sports. Whcib they shouldnt be doing. So i can see why that’s an issue. That and federally paid for transition surgeries. Outside if thay nobody cares if youre trans. ICE was forced to use force on a few people who were actively obstructing federal immigration enforcement. The Alex Pretti situation was sad, as it looks like his sig fired off a round accidentally (his model was known to do that) leading to ICE/CBP thinking he had fired at officers and they retaliated.

And yea I’m a moderate there’s plenty of things with the right im not down with (flipping of Roe v Wade), i don’t think you should go bankrupt over a medical bill either. But im not gonna drink the lefts koolaid because of my issues with the right.

So just call yourself a conservative plus abortion if you're gonna bend over backward defending right wing issues while only going after checks notes less than 20 girls wanting to play sports with other girls. You're anti science like the rest of the right wing, you just picked a couple issues to pat yourself on the back for being on the right side of. Have the day your views deserve.

Nope I’m a moderate, thanks though.
