If you went back before 2016 when politics were less culty and asked boomer what they thought about Preidents. They all would have said Reagan was the best. He is Neo-Lib Jesus, bringing the teachings of trickle down economics to the world. They had decades to move away from Neo-Liberalism.

Just throwing it out there that only a tiny fraction of GenXers were old enough vote in the 1980 or even the 1984 elections. I am in my 30s and only one of my parents was old enough (and definitely did not vote for Reagan, I have seen their Mondale button), the other first voted for President in 1988.

Electing... meh. But not killing and eating him and his friends when he showed his true face? I'll never forget!

So it's your fault for Trump?

this is the reason. but it makes ordinary people look greedy and awful... and we can't accept that.

despite all evidence to the contrary. half my my socialist friends who bought homes are now 100% NIMBY, because they want the value of their house to go up, and that 'value' trumps their socialist ones by a large margin.

because everyone should have housing, but not in their neighborhood! but no, it's not THEIR fault housing prices keep going up, afterall they 'made an investment' and it's not their fault that other folks aren't as 'wise' as they are...

95% of the people here screaming about housing prices not being fair, would 100% support no more development the second they owned a home, because now they are on the flip side of the equation, and everyone pursues their own self interest above all else. the 'rationale' will just go from 'housing is a right' to 'preserve the neighborhood character'.

or less

It's always nice to just go out to see the happiness of people buying their grocery item of the week. It's so kind of them to just let others watch them for some vicarious bread.

I'd argue there is a case for reddit repost/recomment/bridge bots that are properly tagged, credited, can be filtered out by users (I think that's an option on PieFed, not sure tho), preferably managed by instance/community admins, and perhaps a few other measures just to be sure.

Sadly, none of this seems to be the case here.
