Fr, wages staying the same or going f***ing DOWN while prices rise, the average person doesn’t even have the time or energy to really think about s*** and form a nuanced perspective, so they just go with what they’re told.
I don’t like to be cynical, but I think it’s hard to believe that that isn’t an intentional design feature in capitalism too.

The generation of 18-30- something’s isn’t necessarily considered the depressed generation because of social media, just due to the fact that they inherited the world after such s***

You didn’t respond to me. I pointed out far right behavior by Elon and you went Danny phantom😊

This incoming 10 page argument about the implication of saying "THE official language"

I’m not going to get banned over this nonsense argument

Believe whatever y’all wanna believe

yup. both sides have their nutjobs

Buddy; I’m getting quoted a lot I simply did not see it

Can’t name a single person on the right who’s level headed though

That’s true too.
Don’t get me wrong, I don’t think if we inherited the economy of the 50s we’d still be as depressed just because of the phones, but I do think the faceless and catastrophizing nature of social media eventuates the anxiety and pain people go through

If everyone who believes in higher wages and participates in political discourse online would instead organize actual activism protest etc, it would happen. I believe that. This is why I believe it’s okay to mock slacktivists.

Yeah I heard a guy wearing a trump shirt on my bus today ranting about how conservatism and how it’s the way to go, kept implying American values have to be everywhere

Clearly mentally handicapped and posed no threat, but still

Pointing out racism is far right now…..okay…………..

Has this not been a huge talking point of the left for the last several years

If it was English that still doesnt explain nor excuse being upset at other languages or speakers lol.

And it probably be both English & Spanish like how Canada is English and French.

The point of mentioning "its not the full official language" is just a further point of crossing off reasons to be potentially upset at pther languages in a "rational" way.

There is no rational thinking to be upset at other languages.

in that case hope youll be first to the wall

The left: minorities aren’t given the same opportunities as white males

The right: white males are given less scholarships now and companies are openly hiring candidates who may be less qualified for the sake of diversity

OMG DO YOU HEAR THAT FAR RIGHT TAKE!¡!¡

dunno if id generalize like that...but I'd say (of people I listen to online or talk to irl) centrists are level headed. No one from either side will eat their own when one of their tribe are wrong, and centrists can at least see take the better aspects of each side, imo.

elaborate

Still no answer btw.

Which is usually how Conservatives go.

Just vaguely talk & whine of boogey man then go ghost when asked for specifics & whys.

He wont

Bro, the left has had entire internal conflicts over theory

But did you actually think that user thought there was a different official language or were you just nitpicking his post because you believe in your heart that those who live in the U.S. should all speak English?

That’s true too.
It’s kinda f***ed up, we feel like we’re doing something because we post infographics to our stories or some s***, but in a way it’s doing more harm than good, because we then feel satisfied after doing so, and don’t continue moving forward to create actual praxis beyond that because we already feel like we did “our part.”
We’re in such a bind, lol, it feels like we need a miracle to get out of it (even still though, I won’t submit to hopelessness because that’s something else the powerful use to stop the people from realizing just how powerful they are)

It's politricks.

The US's official language is illiteracy
