    All pornography is fake fantasy. I’m always surprised when anyone takes it as anymore than a joke.

    Well rounded people hold no allegiance to any one political party. There is no bigger waste of time than the 2 party system in the USA. Paraphrasing something I posted the other day - politicians are only concerned with gaining power and then holding onto it. They lie to you to get you to vote for them. They couldn’t care less about you. And anyone thinking that there is a real difference between the 2 parties just hasn’t been around long enough to realize how naive thinking that is. The choice for all of us is to put in the effort on your own so you can lead a good life, or be a victim thinking a political party is going to improve your life.

    Politics will never be real unless it is no longer driven solely by money and power. Imagine an election with 10 totally unaffiliated candidates. There would be no “primaries” because there would be no political parties. None of the candidates would be beholding to anyone since political contributions would be outlawed. That’s democracy.

        This is not a condemnation of you, but honestly I’m glad my life isn’t so empty that I would ever go through someone’s post/comment history. Lemmy is just another social media site for people to waste their time. I take anything anyone posts on Lemmy as seriously as I take politics which is zero.
