        The weather is nice but I heard it was supposed to rain tomorrow. Hey did you read that other article about Trump? I don’t want an opinion, just to know if you’ve seen it. As you know we’re forbidden from offering opinions.

        There is no rule that you must comment. Silence is an option. Ignorant people often struggle with this concept.

            No one is gatekeeping your ignorance. They are the not down voting it. Big difference.

            Feeling victimized by any of this is something altogether different. I do get a strong sense of political leanings by it, however.

              This is why your political leanings are disappearing, you know? You’re too concerned with slinging shit vs. actually doing anything useful.

                Claiming I’m slinging shit is a real dramatic take on this.

                I do enjoy the pile on of ignorants fighting for their right to speak when no one said otherwise.

                It’s really cute of easily you all feel victimized by this conversation.

                I note that at no point, none you have disputed that you’re ignorant.

                I don’t give any fucks if you post insipid comments. I haven’t even downvoted any of it (I cannot expect the same from you.) I have merely pointed out that some people might rightfully see it as noise and of course you have to double down on the noise because you people think loud and obnoxious is winning.

      Yeah, fuck me for expressing an opinion in relevant discussion that differs from yours.

      I hoped toxic circle-jerking, downvoting every dissenting opinion, and upvoting memes and off-topic jokes over relevant discussion would stay on reddit, but here we are.
