One thing I've been, well, less discovering, and more reaffirming, is that the country wasn't as good off under the democrats, and not as bad off under the republicans, as reddit would like for you to believe.
They tend to push hard left, so it's hard to take their opinions seriously when they proclaim that one side is okay and one side is bad. They see themselves as the middle and anyone not as equally left as far right neo-fascists at times. Even going so far as to say that centrists are just as culpable as the far right because they aren't actively fighting the far right... Jeez, doomercirclejerk was a bunch of naive people pretending the stock market will grow at 8% forever, but there was one thing they did have right. Far left redditors aren't to be seriously listened to for most things.
