Which also reminds me: we are about to hit the ten year anniversary of when mainstream leftism completely went off the rails, severing all detachment from reality.
Which speaks to an important but all-too-forgotten point: Trump and the whole trump era was an effect and not a cause. If leftism hadn't reached peak insanity starting with gamergate in 2014 and a myriad of examples in 2015 - some complete vanilla nobody like Rubio wouldve been nominated and dutifully stuffed the pockets of all corporate entities that win everytime so long as a stock dnc or gop nobody is in office.
The idea that you think gamergate was a legitimate reaction to "leftists gone insane" speaks a lot to you as a person.
That was a batshit era on the internet and it had nothing to do with broader progressives being "insane." It was a reaction to nothing.
Talk about cancel culture. You couldn't *exist* on the internet and openly identify as someone who doesn't want women burned at the stake. People got doxxed and harassed over nothing.
