    Okay I read the source now and what I found funny is the part where people describe how “moderates” on dating apps are just conservatives. An observation I can regard as true in my experience, they are just self-aware enough to not be dismissed outright, but not self-aware enough to actually change a thing about themselves and become a better person.

    This is DEEPPY VALIDATING thank you

      As it should be! After all, self-validation is far more important than winning elections.

      Clearly you folks on the left did everything right in the 2024 election, and have no need for improvement. No, it’s those pesky voters who are wrong. Surely, doubling down on the condescending attitudes, the cancel culture, and the ideological purity tests is the way to go.

      I mean, who cares if you never win another election ever again? Having the political power to preserve human rights is over-rated anyhow. What’s really important is that you know deep down that you are a better human being than anyone who disagrees with you.

        and being condescending to leftists especially when they are correct and it makes you annoyed you can’t come up with good rhetorical counter arguments that hold together logically… is the MOST important!!
