Literally every comment section is an American politics community
Even if it's a comm about ducks wearing hats, somecunt would mention maga
Well is the duck wearing a maga hat?
Sorry, I'm guilty of this. For me, my more whimsical threads and comments are a healthy distraction from our new American autocratic hellscape. Some escapism is good for mental health. Sometimes I slip and mention of American politics because that's what's causing me stress, and that's a mistake. I shouldn't bring up politics so much.
Modern, polite societies - "Never bring up politics or religion in conversation, as you will never, ever change someone's mind about those two subjects, and it's both ignorant and arrogant to think you can"
Americans - "Hold my high fructose corn syrup!"
