It’s fairly common, in my experience.

I am upset

I didn’t get defensive. I was suggesting that saying “Americans listen to him” is a pointless generalization. Okay, so Americans are the ones who pay the most attention to someone who is a government official in America. Okay. Plenty of uninformed, non-scientific people elsewhere too. So I don’t know what your point about that was.

RFK’s ideas are not very novel and there are many people who champion those lines of thoughts besides him. He is not influential.

Ok… why do you think that would “hurt” me? I’m not aware the US kinda sucks.

I don’t think anyone is really listening to him, smart or not.

they’re typically sociopaths, narcissists, or both. other people hardly exist

That sounds about right.

Seems the most likely to me.

I was a little far away for that and definitely felt something impact me.

Well, as an American, I don’t. And I feel like there are stupid and deluded people in other countries as well

Who the fuck would look or listen to this shuffling zombie of a person and think he knows anything about how to be healthy?

okay, thanks. So posting general things. I guess I haven’t noticed… I mainly browse by New for variety.

Who or what is VetOfTheSeas?

They act that way any time a Democrat is president. They’re terrified the Dem will do a good job and leave a good legacy and positive reputation, so they pretty much flip out. They did it over Clinton - spread and amplified all sorts of rumors then investigated him for years until they finally found something to impeach him for. And then, Obama, obviously. Trump himself is still freaking the fuck out about Obama and it’s been a decade since he was in office.

The claim that people would like him if he was not a republican is one of the stupider pieces of cope they’ve come up with. They also like to use the stupid “TDS“ thing to claim that people just hate Trump arbitrarily, as if we can’t list 50 different horrible things he’s done and things about him that make him completely unfit for the office.

I’m preoccupied with my health and I don’t feel like I have a lot of agency to accomplish much. That’s slowly changing, maybe.

Facebook became useless for that for me, anyway. One of the last straws was they’d show me endless irritating political bullshit, then I manually checked profiles of people I actually knew in person and cared about and found I had a missed a TON of updates about their lives I would have been interested in. Their algorithm is not only incompetent but abusive.

I eventually got disgusted enough with the way the site works that I stopped going. Told anyone who messaged me there to contact me elsewhere (even instagram sucks less). It’s like quitting smoking: the way to do it is to not smoke a cigarette.

you can for a while
