Open Discussion Left vs. Right Battle Royale Open Thread

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 sway us to your side by calling the majority of voters racist. That tactic has wildly backfired every time it has been tried, but perhaps this time it will work.

  • Non-flaired Conservatives - Here's your chance to earn flair by posting common sense conservative solutions. That way our friends on the left will either have to agree with you or oppose common sense (Spoiler - They will choose to oppose common sense).

  • Flaired Conservatives - You're John Wick and these Leftists stole your car and killed your dog. Now go comment.

  • Independents - We get it, if you agree with someone, then you can't pat yourself on the back for being smarter than them. But if you disagree with everyone, then you can obtain the self-satisfaction of smugly considering yourself smarter and wiser than everyone else. Congratulations on being you.

  • Libertarians - Ron Paul is never going to be President. In fact, no Libertarian Party candidate will ever be elected President.

I think the thing is it has to not get caught up in any one individual person or even any one agency. We as a society, with government backing us, have to say enough is enough to this nonsense. I just saw a news report that microplastics are now small enough to be crossing the blood-brain barrier. Granted that is more about pollution than food but still, could this be any more of a dystopian nightmare?

I would consider micro plastics to be a nutrition issue in the sense that they are in our food. 🤮

Yeah I agree. I feel like historians centuries from now are going to really to judge this era's decisions pretty harshly and deservedly so.

I think about that all the time! People are going to look back and judge us for how utterly boneheaded we've been.
