saying one thing doesn't always make someone "trad" or whatever
@Kingfish If only. Everything is diminished in the Ninth Age or whatever

irl, I don't think most people fall perfectly into "left" or "right"
Yeah for most people it's a grey area
Tfw magic and wonder are all but gone and we are left to walk the mundane ages of creation <:sad:366743316475281408>
You would be surprised how apolitical some people are.
I think Tolkein said the Atomic Bomb started the Ninth Age, the last one.
radical centrists ftw amirite?
that's only people who spend enough time at political events to conform with their friends, but not enough time to do their own research
@Sam Anderson ya, I agree
but the thing is, the apolitical people are often the hardest to pin down
since they don't know what any of the party platforms are, their opinions are kinda all over the place
Yep. Most people just want to watch shows and try new restaurants. We're the ones blessed with the 'tsm
@Wood-Ape - OK/MN If were following his system he created, its crazy to think that what we know has the greatest wonders of the world are mere mundane monstrosities compared to say Gondolin. Rome being a bastardization of say, Minas Tirith. Feelsbadman
as an example, I know girls who think that transgenderism is total degeneracy, but on immigration or economics or whatever they're pretty left
only politicians and ideologues do this thing where they match up with one party perfectly
that's because of the tendancy for women to want to take care of others
Unfortunately odds are we won't meet our murdoch chan haha
even if it isn't of their tribe in current year
"muh poor brown people" ~white women 2019
Which is for the best, can you imagine what kind of chaos would happen if nobody conformed to political groupthink
idk
you just have to be willing to compromise
Never change Florida.
I've had people who think they're super smart tell me that they refuse to support any organization at all people that's "groupthink" or whatever
I'm sorry. I had to.
Hooray florida!
>Florida
Keepin it weird
but in reality what ends up happening is that these kinds of people end up changing nothing
i don't think most people are looking to "change" anything, they just want to watch TV and buy plastic trinkets
Yep
well, the people who say that are usually fairly interested in politics
it's usually "big brained centrists" or libertarian types who say that
"big brained" fence sitters <:really:453005408064241674>
not taking a side requires _true_ commitment
<:galaxybrain:366743669484683264>
People love plausible deniability and displacement of responsibility
but, yes, I still agree with your statement
for some people the idea that you actually want to change something is a crazy realization
like, my mom sounded like she just got some crazy revelation when she found out that I'm actually trying to persuade people and I'm not just being a troll for fun @Asatru Artist - MD
So theyre never in trouble for no no thoughts
wrong think bad
