I kind of think Gaia is also a fifth column, like Sunset. There’s a fatalism in their attitude that seems performative.

.gaia.

Debating voting in the midterms. Voted ‘20, ‘22, ‘24 but I’m just so disillusioned. Nobody is seriously pushing for policies I want. The dem gov candidate said she’d legalize weed and that’s about it. Got my poli sci degree just to hate American politics

A lot of lefty types on here usually are, especially any MLs. They’re subversive as fuck. Thinking that this is some sort of “discussion” with them when they denying conversation, it becomes increasingly obvious that it is actively part of their process.

Legit don’t know what it means at all. Some sort of lingo I’m not privy to I assume. It’s like when a frat guy insults you with some weird new made up word that just means nerd that doesn’t participate in frat culture. Like okay? In-group insults rarely hit as hard as you want bc people genuinely have no idea what is being said lolol

A fifth column is basically a subversive element within a country/organization/group that seeks to undermine it

Oh! Usually I used to get called essentially that by MLs until I move much further left. Funny that liberals think i would even want to seem like im working on their side at all (because they equate liberal with left presumably) but nerrrr that could not be farther from the truth

You can’t claim “I’m more principled than you” and then not elaborate on what principles you have or how you hold to them

Why would you even write this out when your first comment at me was a rhetorical question?

Rhetorical question implies I didn’t want an answer to it or it wasn’t a serious question. AFAIK you’re a ragebaiter whose ideology is “whatever I have to believe to be seen as winning the argument”. I’m open to my mind being changed on that.
