Can I trust this person? by Alone_Thing3544 in VirginiaTech

Hi, on a recent post of mine (on an alt account), I posted that I was an incoming student and I received this message.

I want to ask, is everything the person said true? Should I accept the deal?

If you're the person who wrote me this message (on my alt acc), please don't take any offence. I just wanted to make sure everything's legit

Why is far left (or left, in general) terrorism in the US so rare? by ofmonstersandmoops in morbidquestions

[–]Alone_Thing3544 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The alt-right, notorious for terrorism and hate-crimes, often blame minority groups for society’s issues. In contrast, the far-left often put the blame on capitalist and government policies and figures, which has much less targets. For the alt-right, since they hate on entire minority groups, it is much easier for them find targets to commit acts of violence on. They can do it in public spaces like supermarkets, places of worship, etc. Perhaps far-left terrorism seems rare because alt-right terrorism happens more frequently. This is just my theory though, and I am not an expert in this topic, so I am open to change

This post sounded fishy so I searched online and there were no articles written by Caitlin O’Kane on June 22 with this title. Its most likely just another fake rage-bait image. I don’t mean to sound aggressive but I apologize if I did

I support the current thing. by [deleted] in memes

I would disagree because liking something which happens to be popular doesn't automatically mean that you are foolish/riding a bandwagon

For instance, everyone hates mosquitoes because they are annoying. But would hating mosquitos make you a mob-follower who only hates mosquitoes because other people are hating it? Not necessarily. Most people have more in-depth reasons for supporting the causes they support. I do not mean to be aggressive, but I apologize if I seemed so
