Reagan was President when I was a kid. America is right-wing as Hell and always has been.

This is less indicative of the political leanings of the population and more the result of a precise planned and serious effort of the right and rich political machine to spread their message. This is why Trump won 2025 in such a big way.

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.
