I think we are in an era where people don’t care what’s real and what’s a lie as long as the lie is entertaining enough and validates their own thoughts.

  I don’t agree both sides do it to nearly the same degree, but yeah on the occasion I catch the left doing it, it frustrates me. So much stuff to legitimately be upset about and people are posting Teslas dropping folks off in a no parking zone.
  
  I’ll even acknowledge that an unmanned electric car standing to drop someone off or pick them up is indistinguishable from parking but still it’s pointless splitting of hairs compared to gestures at everything.

    Mhhmm yeah. If you don’t see both sides being equally ridiculous, there’s a good chance you’re blinded by bias for one of those teams.
    
    Yeah, hot take for Lemmy. But absolutely true.
