Yeah I’m turned off from interacting. I got banned (I’m guessing since I can’t even reply to people) from world news when Maduro was kidnapped and I mentioned that my Venezuelan friends were hopeful. As this was scary but good news. And my god how I got flamed. Theres no room for conversation I got tagged, replied to, people made fun of me and that’s it. I wasn’t even allowed to interact anymore so it looks like I just said something and ran away.

I’m not even close to center, yet it’s all or nothing with politics here. It’s seriously become reddit 2.0. Pathetic.

Why is it so hard to believe people have friends in other countries?

Yeah I guess. It’s kids confusing what’s happening there. They’re being given so much information. Whether right or wrong.

Be careful, apparently I got banned from lemmy.ml for mentioning that the friends I have living in Venezuela see Maduro and “his goons” gone (his words) as great news. The future though is not bright and the people are still very sceptical of Trumps motives. Obviously for us here in the US the writing is on the wall for anyone who’s lived through Iraq.
