The only way leftist will win any political ground is by winning allies
Screaming down every person who you have a disagreement with politically will only solidify their dislike for the people you claim to represent
It’s funny to me seeing you claim that the other people lack awareness and empathy when you seemingly fail to grasp that people don’t enjoy the way you are portraying your political views
Ukraine good Russia bad?
Sorry I don’t side with imperialism.
Ukraine wants to not be invaded by it’s neighbor, and Russia did so to conquer it in direct contradiction to a treaty it signed when Ukraine gave it’s nukes to Russia after the fall of the Soviet Union. On multiple occasions.

I’m primarily on my Blahaj account but I’m currently using one of my alts as Jerboa is crashing when I try to log into my Beehaw account (which requires me to clear the app storage to switch accounts) and Blahaj is currently having server issues again.
Personally I dig the vibes of the Blahaj folks
Mostly I sub to communities all over the fediverse, though this alt is a bit more bare as I mostly keep them separated in terms of where I interact.
Picture an 4 way intersection.
For me every single car just went about their way all willy nilly like it was nothing.
Occasionally a semi hauling triple trailers flys through grinding every else to a halt when everyone is trying to get through.
There’s no order, the lights don’t work, and almost no one wants to yield.
The cars were ideas, things I saw, and things I needed to do. The semi is my latest hyper obsession. The non functional traffic lights were my ability to regulate my thoughts.
When I took my meds it was like the lights started working suddenly. At first they were really strict, one car at a time like a highway on ramp. But then things amped down a bit as I got more used to the meds. I even went up to 60mg atomoxetine from 40mg where I started as things ramped too close to chaos again.
I hope that made sense.
For me I have the urge to stand up but I can’t bring myself to on many occasions and beat myself up about for too long.
It’s gotten easier to stand up about things since I started taking meds.
In fact thinking back on it since I started my meds I’ve stood up almost every time.
Honestly life has gotten so much easier and better since then it’s kinda crazy.
I wish I had gotten around to scheduling the appointment sooner.
Did Russia not invade Ukraine’s sovereign territory?
That’s a pretty big rock you’ve been living under to miss that.
