  I’ve found that if you want engagement then most communities are fairly quiet. This is not /r so there are fewer around. If you want to engage then find a post that resonates with you and engage with it. Lemmings are conversational but you need to poke them to get something back.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How likely is it that Trump will be the first President assassinated since Kennedy?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  My bingo card/wish list - Trump gets tied up in litigation/impeachment (first pres to be impeached 3 or 4 times…bring it!) until he is out of office (I suspect his Outlook is already set that way). Then, after, nobody says his name ever again because…let’s face it, everyone is just plain embarrassed that it happened - ®’s (D)'s, even whack-a-doo (Others … independent, green, what are those guys that think that everything is transactional…forget).

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨is it wrong/selfish to cut contact with my trump-supporting father?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  My best friend at work is a dyed-in-the-wool conservative. He will never not be - and I rush to profess that he is not an asshole…he just thinks conservitave/republican is the side he needs to support probably because that’s what daddy did, dunno. We see eye-eye on most other things.

  We do not agree on anything political except that everyone is way too heated up over everything. We are still friends, regardless.

  My point in responding is that his gay daughter disconnected from him after Trump v.1 - would not take a call or interact in any way. This is painful for my friend and he has been confused by it but does not realize why his daughter won’t engage. I think she is offended that his political choice doesn’t allow for her right to exist and, frankly I agree with her.

  I think my friend has lost his daughter forever because he is a stubborn man. I hope your dad can open his heart to accept you.

  Meh. I don’t remember the last time I handled cash - never touch the stuff. I don’t even have to swipe anymore…contactless tap ftw.

  The dumb motherfucker who did this was just a homicidal twat. There was no “reason” or manifesto that was given, it was just some whack-job wanting to kill lotso-people.

  Gun control is a joke in America…I’m sad about that.

  I think, based on responses indicating AI influence, that this is a a worthwhile filter/exclude keyword. I have only encountered the word while viewing /all and it is normally in the /garterbelt forum. Perhaps there is a bot a play?
