First post on here but spent a lot of time on reddit looking at the destruction of rationality in real time. TD was the only place I could go to for any positivity. Some comments and posts get edgy, but thats what we all want...a little bit of everything. Because thats real fucking life.
I admit that when Trump first got elected, I thought we were fucked. And then I watched the Dem/lib meltdown on national TV and realized these people, who are supposed to be leader, are a bunch of crying pussies. I realized soon that I was not going to be a part of that losing mentality. And here we are lol
My own dad, who taught me that "life isn't fair" and "you make your luck" suddenly became an NPC yelling orange man bad every morning. He blamed Trump for his own bad mood, during cancer treatment. Ridiculous. He got cancer (hes recovering) and yet, he woke up in pain every morning screaming fuck Trump. What a realization for me. Here I was, trying to make the most out of my time with my dying father, and all he wanted to do was recreationally get outraged at Trump. I had never seen him like that before. He was a zen guy. He was a white guy whose favorite book was Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance.
Now I just watch him, and my brother virtue signal on facebook and trash white people and tacitly endorse ANTIFA activity. I love my dad and bro, but jesus the left/MSM has made things hard to navigate.
i feel for you so hard, my mother is a similar way, Asian-American republican tiger mom of sorts. A real "Pull yourself up by youre own bootstraps" "Knowledge is Power" type.
Post-menopause shes turned into virtue signalling sheeple
I have to be a crypto-trump supporter, because i would get disowned at this point. And even at that, im tactically red-pilling my fam using the Socratic method when they approach with a point/argument
Thank you. I'm half asian/american so we have more in common than you think. Although my mother still has the "fuck it, we're all gonna die anyways" mentality. I guess I'll take asian nihilist over violent TDS.
At this point, you have to be a crypto non-dem voter. Anything else will result in cancellation and accusations right.
My brother is this close to antifa levels of psychosis...yet receives money from me (He's struggling in NY). Wonder how he feels about being supported by a person he perceives as complicit in racism? lol Makes me laugh.
