Talk about whatever, respecting the rules established by Lemmygrad. Failing to comply with the rules will grant you a few warnings, insisting on breaking them will grant you a beautiful shiny banwall.

A community for comrades to chat and talk about whatever doesn't fit other communities

Politics isn't first in my family. Never has been. Never will be if I ever have anything to say about it. Being vocal on one side invites the other, almost like a dare.

My cousin, who is libertarian knows I'm a socialist and as left as a Canadian steering wheel. We debate every now and again.

My mom is a tried and true, yee haw, old money, 1980's Ronald Regan Republican, but she thought Obama was handsome and voted for him. She hates Trump, and thinks Biden isn't real, or... does and changes her mind from time to time. It's complicated.

If she gives me shit, I dig out the four-page print off of Republican senators and congressmen trapped in legal battles and start narrating.

...she thinks Biden isn't real? Not that he's a bad president? Not that trump or someone else is her true president, or that Biden is a fake president somehow, but that Biden is just not real?

They replaced him at some point, I've been told. The story changes. Sometimes they're changing him as we speak.
