[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not on this site. But on Twitter, Reddit, even Livejournal which I still frequent (embarrassing, I know).

Their criticisms of the U.S. frequently align with mine, but it's like in recent months I've felt a sense of cynicism of them toward America and the Democratic party that makes me feel uncomfortable. I think it's because we're seeing the Trump administration at peak power, deporting innocent immigrants and using their might to chill free speech. These criticisms toward centrist Dems, that they're no better than Republicans, feel so quaint.

That they can still treat both parties with the same type of ire at this moment in time feels delusional and offensive. One party is obviously worse than the other, and recent events should've crystallized that for them. Maybe they're just callous people, but I'm actually beginning to think many of them aren't even Americans.

Do you agree? Should this have been an obvious realization years ago? [/quote]

You do get that this is exactly the type of post that foreign users trying to sow discord write, right?[/quote]

I did actually realize the irony in what I was posting, but eh, it is what it is. I wanted to vent and it's not like I can prove myself on an anon board.[/quote]
