I totally realize most people are going to disagree with me here but I feel compelled to say that closing the sub for a joke wasn't a very kind thing to do. We have seen TONS of posts from vulnerable populations talking about how this sub is a source of support and humor in a dark time. Irony and dirtbagism aside, taking away that support without warning was not okay.
You can say I'm being silly, or humorless or reactionary. Whatever. I love the show and I love this community. But sometimes I come home after dealing with ableism and our nightmare reality all day, and this sub is one of many things that make me feel better. It wasn't a good feeling to find this sub closed for the sake of irony. Maybe that's laughable or pathetic. But for me, it's true.
Before Trump everyone was just kind of chill left-wing on campus. Sure you had dumbass programs, but after Trump they had fucking therapy sessions. Someone in my group literally cried the day after, and God was it hard not to fucking laugh.

On one hand, it is no surprise that the left hates Asians.
On the other hand, I can't really say I blame them in British Columbia. The Chinese already turned Vancouver into their colony.

Good. More Chinese is a small price to pay for fewer 🤮 Canadians. 🤮

I just hope Rocket Man would get one with it and nuke the whole Pacific Northwest for us.

Why do the awoken always make it sound like people cannot succeed or fail on their own?

They’re communists, any one who succeeds in this society isn’t going to be down with overthrowing it.

Republicans should primary the ghost of Joe McCarthy next election.

It honestly ticked up after Trump.
Before Trump everyone was just kind of chill left-wing on campus. Sure you had dumbass programs, but after Trump they had fucking therapy sessions. Someone in my group literally cried the day after, and God was it hard not to fucking laugh.

I know someone who cried when the big guy “won”. Lefties are super sensitive.
