Thank you. The bird on the mug judges me. I appreciate the encouragement of strangers.

Yeah, it’s a bummer, but displaying the American flag at this point in history is going to make people think you are racist and at least a bit stupid.
Was driving the other day and saw a big American flag in a front yard and thought “well, I guess I know what kind of folks live there…” but as I got closer I saw that the blue section, instead of stars, said FUCK TRUMP. And I was like “oh.. you got me!” 👉😎 👉
This is me. I do it anyway, but I do really really hate it. If I'm sitting at a long light waiting to turn left I will turn it off, unless I am the first or last person in line. I also manually turn it off half way through the turn before the steering wheel action turns it off. It's like someone is drumming their fingers on my skull.
But for merging, lane changing, etc., I always use it.
I'm sorry you're having such a bad time. I don't think that anyone upvoted you with bad intentions. It seems like you are viewing "Lemmy" as a unified entity rather than a community of varied individuals. There are some very nice people here. There are also some douche bags. There are a few prominent posters that are frequently both of those options in quick succession. I wish I had a solution for you. I hope you find a community where you feel safe and seen.
