Okay your mistake was the "you liberals" in your post. Those are fighting words. Most people in here agree that U.S. democracy (according to the constitution) was never intended to be run by oligarchs.

I believe it was tongue-in-cheek.
Exactly Ida. I think George meant no harm. just funny sarcasm but a great catch because the WE on the platform needs to brand accurately - not by political party but collectively as Patriots! PATRIOTS WHO LOVE OUR COUNTRY AND WILL FIGHT FOR IT AND INSIST OUR CONSTITUTION BE HONORED! 🙏
Talking about the founding fathers gaslights half of the population living in the real world today Their intent was for wealthy white men to prosper Period
He’s not wrong, though. It’s fast turning into a blue-MAGA echo chamber of exclusionary speech. I came here to get away from extremists, and trumps name comes up here at least as often as the other places. This isn’t better.
@itmerc2024.bsky.social are you following the wrong people? I get pictures of cats in my feed, and scenery, along with people talking about their dogs. It's not all politics.
Bluesky is a lot better. There are conversations here in which people respectfully can disagree without ad hominem attacks. Of course Trump, the next POTUS, is going to be mentioned a lot. Did you come here to escape all political content?
I think you’re right, but I’m hoping this is just the rebound and temporary. At least it’s not hostile here :)
I don't mind it. Better than being called a Christian Conservative which is a total oxymoron at this point.
Yeah, that pissed me off, too. He MAY have been saying it tongue in cheek, but text doesn’t always show sarcasm etc
I don’t think it was meant to be disparaging. More like slightly misplaced humour. I say this a a liberal myself, although my UK understanding of the word may be different.
He was being sarcastic.
