Doesn't matter how bad Reddit is, Twitter is the real cesspool.

Amen. I'd say Reddit is more like the toilet that leads to the cesspool. There was some clean water in there at the beginning, but lately it's just full of shit.

Preach, brother. Twitter is the real way they get radicalized.

Red-Dick is merely where the spurgs have to go because none of their shit can go viral on the Twitter circles-jerk.

Agree with most of it except this.

It has become an instrument of Liberalism, a vector of political correctness, and a threat to our democracy. Their goal is to control the narrative — as who controls the narrative controls the outcome.

This isn't liberalism, this is marxism.

Liberalism is the entry drug to Marxism. There's very little difference between the two.

Not really. Liberalism is individualist, not collectivist. The NEO-Liberals are a bit of different animal. They have made an unholy alliance with Marxism for profits but there are a lot of real "classical" liberals out there in hiding.

Classical Liberalism is still Liberalism, and while it's more individualistic, it's still self-centered — just like Neoliberalism and Marxism. These ideologies focus on "what can I get?" rather than "how can I help?".

That's not just wrong...
