I have two cars, but I actually hate cars.

I chose to have a house in the mountains, but I hate snow.

I work out hard and have abs that I show off, but people who show off their abs annoy me.

I’m a writer and make income doing it in addition to my retirement pension, but writers annoy me and I never tell my friends that I’m a writer.

I also paint and have had my stuff in some galleries, but artists annoy me and I never tell any of my friends that I paint.

I’ve chosen all those things. Not by necessity, but just choice. Can you be a contrarian to your own views or does that definition have to involve opposing someone else’s views just to troll?

    a sizable population of people who don’t give two flying fucks which facet of the Plutocrat Party is running the USA

    Now that is the case, I totally agree.

    3 months ago, things were very different. Also, I am talking specifically on .world. That’s the instance where most of my drama came from

    And for the record, there are lots of people leaving .world for that very reason now. It’s become a very toxic pro-censorship instance and people are leaving.

    My post/comment history is public, as are the modlogs. If you’re bored enough, feel free to look at my comments and the replies I’d get. You’ll see for yourself it’s because people thought my advocating for third party was treason: https://lemmy.world/u/UniversalMonk

    What are your theories for the “hatred”? If you find any samples of posts/commetns that are offensive, please post them.

    Because honestly I haven’t gotten much drama since the election, because to your point, lots of people are pro third-party now. Most of the people who continue to organize for my ban always bring up the .world drama from 3 months ago before the election, and they are usually from there.

    .world Biden/Harris supporters have a very long memory and hold grudges! lolol

    Also, I haven’t been banned from any instances since the election. Yet I haven’t changed my stance or attitude at all. So I think that’s pretty telling.

    Thanks, friend!
