I quit it about a year or two ago and never looked back. Not because of the leftist propaganda actually, but because of what a horrible waste of time it was. Looking at it now though... jesus christ what a shit show.
I'm a newly converted Trump supporter. I've always had sneaking suspicions that the narrative surrounding Trump was largely manufactured, but never had the inclination to investigate it until the hypocrisy exposed by the rioting and looting. I try to be pretty logical/rational in my approach to things (being a software engineer), and after 1 day of researching it became immediately obvious how badly I was being lied to by the left and the mainstream news media. I owe a debt of gratitude to the folks here on .win and think you all for trying to advance a message of hope to the millions of disenfranchised and forgotten people in this country. MAGA!
Eh it’s fine if it wasn’t full. Still viewed by millions. Like it or not a lot of people are closet Trump supporters because we live in a country where coming out as a Trump supporter gets you either fired or branded as a racist. Have faith my friend, we will win.
I started to use DuckDuckGo since the rioting kicked off. People don’t realize how subtly even search suggestions manipulates your view of the world. DuckDuckGo is not perfect but I’ve found it to be acceptable and helps you avoid a lot of the liberal clickbait and lies that google shows front and center.
Imagine allowing your company to be overrun by leftist ideologues like this. It’s almost like a psychological game of chicken — the leftists establish a silent culture of suppression, effectively stating “I DARE you to speak out against us, you racist POS.” And soon enough they have all of the power.
Another problem is that for people in the liberal bubbles of this country it’s very easy to fall for the brainwashing. The media paints Trump in such a negative light, you literally just begin to believe everything he does is evil, without questioning. I’ll give you an example... after Trump was elected, my workplace (a large technology company in Silicon Valley) brought everyone together for a speech about how “we’ll get through this” horrible tragedy. I’m fairly certain if I publicly supported Trump I’d be fired.
It’s true. I was a moderate, voted for Hillary in the last election. My red-pilling moment was observing the hypocrisy and gaslighting of MSM after looters and rioters destroyed my city (in the San Francisco Bay Area). I realized how badly I had been lied to my entire life. I believe as the left’s tactics become more extreme, more and more people will realize the truth.
I feel like I'm at ground zero of leftist ideology. Mandatory "bias" trainings, privilege trainings, listing out your preferred pronouns etc. If I came out as a Trump supporter, I would not last 1 day at my company I swear to god.
