I’m sadly moving on from lemming.world, which is shutting down. I saw a post about someone on Quora being hateful to the “damn liberals” while claiming to be a victim and getting upset over hate comments for being a bigot. What the hell…

    With the right, everything is projection.

    They accuse us of being “snowflakes” but the truth is they are the most fragile people in the world. Try to question them and you’ll see how they start whinning about it.

      In Australia the right (gov + media) are blaming immigrants for our problems. If they get in power, they’re gonna turbo charge immigration. They’re blaming our Labor government for the housing crisis while many of the Right Wing pollies have a massive housing investment portfolio.

        They were in power for 9 continuous years, the whole time blaming Labor for the economy, then next election said you should vote for them because they are good at running the economy. How can you be good at running the economy if in 9 years you can’t make any positive change that you can take responsibility for?

      Agreed. My cousin is actually Republican Conservative, IDK why. I mean, she’s nice and not like the typical Conservatives but maybe she’s hiding a meaner side that I don’t see because I’m a cis? white girl. Anyway, she’s not racist from what I’ve seen, she herself is black. She’s not homophobic as she said “Make sure your boyfriend or girlfriend treats you right” but maybe she’s against trans people or transitioning minors or something and wants a capitalist government. IDK
