A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics (NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out)
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

Lemmy is more left leaning because the rights popularity seen on other social media are driven by bots that are not here. (lemmy.world)

People on the "right" are vastly more accepting of authority than people on the left. For example, the people who didn't wear masks were willing to die because Tucker (or whichever right-wing shitgoblin they listen to) told them to. It wasn't some sort of anti-authoritarian expression, it was pure authoritarianism.
