2. It isn't "WE"
Fri Jan 9, 2026, 09:21 AM

I mentioned this before, but once again:

It isn't WE, it is a minority of greedy mother fuckers who have warped the perception of another minority with misinformation, propaganda, corrupt legislation and limitless money, not to mention stealing elections and Russian interference.

I know when people use the term"WE" they do not mean DU members, but I still hate lumping so much of our population and politics together. I also think it is demoralizing and unhelpful. It certainly is for me. I get where you are coming from when using the term"WE" and realize that no ill intent is intended. Just something I think is really worth considering.
