regular people on social media, who might not even be real, have no obligation to censor their views to help democrats. they arent pundits. every utterance and opinion shouldnt be triangulated to maximize electoral math. if anything you dredging up randos to dunk on is doing more harm than they are

I am simply asking people to be fucking normal and understand that they aren't unilaterally ejecting religious people from the Democratic Party.

i dont think indyrefugee is ejecting anybody from anything. i think they are posting an opinion that got 134 likes and didnt accomplish anything. roy cooper is still praying as we speak, everything is gonna be ok. i dont even care about religiousity but this micro-level tone policing is ridiculous.

i have dyslexia but pop off king and i didnt think it mattered enough to delete and repost but i can see that pointlessly dunking on pedantic bullshit is a trend. do you think those extra likes make it worthy of discussion?

I think that it makes it a relatively popular post, actually, which is why it's part of an ongoing Discourse spanning several dozen popular posts.

cmon man, its not even 500. this is silly, its okay to just admit you found a rando that fit the opinion you wanted to dunk on. again, would we have ever seen it if it wasnt screenshot and spread around?

This opinion is being posted all over bluesky today. Stop tone policing people that are responding to it.

What number of likes makes something appropriate to talk about?

lol okay lets say 1k. or maybe we could just let people post what thye actually think and stop trying to censor our personal opinions on our personal accounts to appease hall monitors obsessed with the electoral implication of posts on blusky with less engagement than your average airport food court

This is very quickly approaching "cancel culture" shit, bud, I am not censoring anything, I am simply giving my reaction to a take on a public website.

you are telling people to stop posting opinions you disagree with because they are politically unacceptable to you. do you think these opinions go away if people are shamed into not posting them? you dont even know if this person is real lmao

So regular people on social media have no obligation to support the non-fascist party? I don't agree. That is, unless they actually tacitly support the fascists.
