    I haven’t visited that sub in years, mostly because it made me feel dumber.

    But those comments are in weird contrast to what I used to see. I wonder if the veil is finally falling…that’d be wild.

      It’s kinda funny watching them notice who Trump is for the first time while still being upset he might not win. There’s some comments that are effectively, “enough of the meaningless bullshit, just talk about policy and he’ll do better!” as if Trump ever had any attractive policies.

      I believe last I heard they were trying to distance themselves from their policies because they realized in hindsight that they shouldn’t say them out loud.

        They’ve been doing this for an entire year now. All winter and spring the meta was “we will all stay home if Desantis doesn’t get the nomination.” They all cringed pretty hard when Trump did his NFT scam.

        But at the end of the day they are all intellectually dishonest cowards, so in the end they always just do the only thing they know - lick the boot.

      It’s weird to see a contingent of vaguely relatively normal opinions over there, but of course they get decried as “librul brigading” by most of the cult/bots
