Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.
Our Rules:
-
Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.
-
No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.
-
Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.
-
Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.
-
No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.
Sister Communities:
-
/c/TenForward@lemmy.world - Star Trek chat, memes and shitposts

Both sides ARE bad, but one side is blatantly evil. I was hoping that rise of the internet would make more people aware of it, but somehow it got worse. After 2004 election, I was convinced that the voters will start making a more informed decision, but 2016 proved me wrong.
Doesn't help the collective cognitive dissonance social media has accrued for all partisans. Anyone not terminally online will tend to be the actual definition of a centrist (not this loser strawman concept drafted up every fucking time a thread like this happens) where you contemplate the actual topic at hand and align yourself off your own morals and experiences rather than just blindly ally yourself to every goalpost set by a specific party or ideology.
90% of people in this thread are clearly affected. Stamped foot head in sand fluoride stare types teehee
