Based on what I say on the forum? If that is what you are using at a litmus test then I do not know what to tell you to be honest. We all say things on the internet that we would never say online because we have a screen name and somewhat anonymous identity to hide behind. Assuming that you are more of the type to hear guys out, yeah, I have become very political in recent months after being someone who could have cared less even during the pandemic. It is irritating to hear this nonsense time and time and time again when one side can be as political as they want in public and it's okay but the other is expected to keep its mouth shut.
When you do not play along with some left wing nutjob's rants at a party and get told "oh you must have voted for Trump". On the inside, you can smile a bit thinking "yes faggot, I voted for Trump, cry on TikTok about it" but then to face it over and over and over again party after party. You break, you break because you can no longer pretend to go with some tool's political insecurity. You break because you can no longer stand to see your own cheer on cancel culture and being woke anymore. To be silenced, to be backed into a corner to agree with some people, and worst of all to see just how scummy these people actually are while parading as self-righteous.
Forums become a release in a way and it's no wonder Youtube comments have become heavily right wing over the years.
That's how bad it has gotten now, politics can no longer be ignored. It no longer gets mentioned in passing and instead gets shoved in your face if you are someone in their 20s living in a big city. I have decided to avoid expanding social circles with the party people because of it and taken a break from nightlife as well. You have no idea how bad it gets and a simple nod and agree doesn't work when they aggressively probe and force you to give your left wing rant as well. I am like, go burn in your own communist hell scum on the inside.
Dude, you seriously need to chill down with the politics.
It has taken a hold of you.
Stop watching news, stop going into social media, stop reading politic analysis… all of that is designed to trigger you.
Chill down, get some distance and live a calmer and happier life without it.
