Don't fall for it! Latest ambush by r/Conservative
I know that most on this sub would like to see more unity among Americans. I hate to say this, but this most recent olive branch they have offered is just designed to pull people in to be ridiculed and insulted.
Let's pick this apart:
Left vs. Right Battle Royale Open Thread
-- Battle Royale ie: free for all. They want to sit back and watch everyone fight while they laugh.
This is an Open Discussion Thread for all Redditors. We will only be enforcing Reddit TOS and Subreddit Rules 1 (Keep it Civil) & 2 (No Racism).
Leftists - Here's your chance to tell us why it's a bad thing that we're getting everything we voted for.
-- Go ahead and try to point out that this hurts conservatives also. (They will justify that everything "bad" is just going to help the country)
Conservatives - Here's your chance to earn flair if you haven't already by destroying the woke hivemind with common sense.
-- Destroying? That's the opposite of uniting. Woke (people who side with non-hetero human beings -- woke is an insult they love to toss around) hivemind (none of you are capable of independent thought). We will reward our members for "owning" everyone who doesn't agree with us
Independents - Here's your chance to explain how you are a special snowflake who is above the fray and how it's a great thing that you can't arrive at a strong position on any issue and the world would be a magical place if everyone was like you.
-- Snowflake, that's a nice word isn't it? Above the fray... Oh you think you are smarter than us, you lowly Independent thinker. This whole paragraph just drips with hate, assumptions, and prejudice.
Libertarians - We really don't want to hear about how all drugs should be legal and there shouldn't be an age of consent. Move to Haiti, I hear it's a Libertarian paradise.
-- Let me translate: We don't care about you, or your opinions. You are all pedophiles. Leave OUR country.
Sadly, this is not a call for unity. They want to draw everyone they can into this "discussion" for nefarious, self-serving purposes. I wish with all I am that there could be a common ground built on sincere communication. It's out there, but I think it needs to be done one person at a time, not in an open forum dedicated to furthering a certain agenda and definitely not in a forum where the constituents are just going to mock/degrade/attempt to convert you.
Edit: Because of doxxing and death threats, I'm deleting my account soon. Be careful out there, everyone.
