Depends on a few things, including the viewpoint in question.

And my patience at a particular time because I’m not 18 and just discovering the world anymore and a lot of shit is the same old shit, even if it’s had a ribbon tied around it.

Some things that I’m more or less out of patience with are bigotry, right wing conservative conformists and supremacists, and monotheism. But I’m open to discussing most other things.

I’d be more inclined to ‘meet in the middle’ politically if ‘politics’ were about say how taxes should be spent, and not about who should have more or less human rights than who.

Ah I definitely understand the “preaching to the choir” sentiment, particularly here on Lemmy. I think that’s also partly why I’m fucking with mainstream social media right now.

But I mean in that case, might as well not share any political content here. Personally I wasn’t sharing it here to preach to anyone here. I think that sharing content here is more for showing things to like minded people. Maybe a reminder sometimes. Or something for them to look up or share to their social media or whatever.

I could’ve been a little less defensive, so I apologize. The platform where I got this from is a shit show where certain people literally defend this shit. Need to remind myself that I don’t need to automatically fight when I’m here.

I do not work with them nor am I associated with them in any way. I just shared this here and left more than enough details for people to verify for themselves if they still doubt the fact that religious right wingers tend to be scum with issues around children and with projecting their own actions and guilt onto others.

This isn’t some new groundbreaking revelation. That’s why the clutching at pearls over trans people was such a fucking joke. Because they’ve been turning a blind eye to kiddie fiddling priests and right wing politicians for decades now. And proved that christianity is a religion of conformity, not morality.

This is literally just more information for the people who have actually been awake at any point in their lives and aren’t just finding out today that right wingers are disproportionately involved in child abuse. So that they can know to keep children away from the man with the maga hat and tell their friends. So that the heat can be on the right target.

It’s why I’m being a bit hostile here. This to me isn’t really a conversation in good faith. It’s debating the validity of something that has been a problem for at least as long as I’ve been alive, almost four decades.

You could also go and check out the Reddit subs “not a drag queen” and “still not a drag queen” for documented cases going years back. You could just use your fucking memories of how far back the stories of priests diddling kids go, and how the USA south has a particular reputation for this. None if this is fucking new. Including the pedophile president that these fucking people all love.

Tired of ‘debating’ reality with debate bros that only have room in their heads for the last podcast they listened to.

Ok find them.

this kind of thing needs to be backed up with evidence

I don’t know about Instagram but going by their Facebook profile, you would have to be deliberately stupid to think that they’re just posting about random people being arrested.

There are 56 names on this list, as well as the individual articles about all of these individuals on this profile. Expecting someone to spoon feed you 56 different links, or more if you’re too much of a ‘skeptic’ to trust just one source for each of them, is a bit much. I’m sure you know how to use Google based on the information here.

And even if you don’t have a Facebook account and can’t see that content, and won’t make one, or any effort to see for yourself before declaring “both sides”, I’m sure that your Uncle Joe has a Facebook account.

And he sees this shit too, these pedo president worshipping pieces of shit are all over left wing and feminist pages letting everyone know clearly just what they think. They just don’t fucking care. Or they call it “fake news”.

So this isn’t for Uncle Joe, who would’ve voted for a turd fresh out of Donald Trump’s ass, with lips painted on, as long it gives him any excuse to use the N word and call trans people “predators” online. Feelings don’t care about facts for these fkn clowns.

This is for the people who aren’t ignorant, mouth breathing bigots, and who are capable of a little bit of their own initiative, in order to be armed with knowledge.

This has been going on much longer and I wish I had saved previous months. But I’m going to share this shit here each month from now on.

Wealth vs wages? Cars require a substantial amount to buy, and then a decent liveable paycheck that leaves you something to play with for fuel and upkeep. Public transport is something more affordable for wage slaves.
