It's such a bizarre place. You'll find a good chunk of "rational" comments on a post about something unhinged Trump says or does, that say he's going too far, it's a waste of time, whatever. Then the magats calling those people liberals get downvoted and cry brigade. Then the next post is like "Yeah I'm super mega pro Trump" and it's equally upvoted. Is it collective split personality or is it just all bots

There's 100% people in there that are "This is too far. This isn't the role of the federal government."

And there's 100% people in there that call them fake conservatives and feel like any action is justified because liberals are literally the devil.

And there's 100% bots that play both sides of that engagement to sow more anger.
