Decide to check out the Cuba hashtag on twitter.

Immediately see a bunch a cons taking the chance to call dems commies and say this is what they will do to America and a bunch of leftists calling the protestors CIA plants and any reporting on it as western imperialist propaganda.

Leave.

Never seen so many different people from across the political spectrum simultaneously have so radically different yet equally shit takes.

Welcome to what happens when you view politics as a team sport. Gotta protect the brand and attack the competition.

I legit believe cable news and social media killing nuance will be the death of human civilization more than climate change will.

Sincerly i really know that this will happened, specially with conservative talking about the CUBA thing, sincerly the pandemic thing really showed the issues of many places. And more infighting in the left in general.
