A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

- 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
- 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).

- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

You should stop with your holier than thou bs. The left is no better authoritarian than the right
Holier than thou? Hahaha. They're not actively harming humans, forcing their dipshit religion on anyone. Care about human rights, care about having women decide to have an abortion or not. Unlike your kind.
Just fuck off mate.
"Both sides," says one side.
Or what? Lol.
Anecdotal, but similar experiences, similar thought processes on this end of the server too. Conservatives don't conserve anything, but they sure do suck.
They are the product of generations of inbreeding and religious brainwashing.
I still believe in the idea of the open internet helping people connect and understand each other better. "Oh, that white guy also struggles with bills and loving his kids when they get to be too much", "oh, she's...", Etc.
I didn't expect the pAtRiOt front to find each other and start sucking each other's anus using the internet.
But, we've all been naive at one time or another in our lifetimes. Maybe things between us are getting better regardless of interference by the powers that be. Hey, we're now in the Fediverse, after all.
