    I blocked like 10 communities that post US politics non stop. All with the same core message, some dont even have politics in their name. This one is called “Microblog Memes”, why do you all post the same us politics slob in here. And further, why does the machine think its worthwhile to spam lemmy of all places with this shit.

      Our presidential election is coming up this fall and we are on the ledge of losing our democracy depending on the outcome. It’s kinda on our minds quite a bit.

        no offence or anything, this is not some democracy superhero vs evil dictator doomsday show off. Its a bunch of political candidates up for election with different policies. Its really misleading and unhealthy to assume your world is doomed if the candidate you support is not going to win. Same as it is believing that if your candidate wins you somehow managed to accomplish a heroic deed. The hardened polarization of the 2 camps in the USA gets worse and worse each cycle.
