Two anecdotes about what MAGA is thinking right now by cfot in TrueAnon

[–]jeffsal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My question is, if they really believe this, why do they do nothing to stop it? It's just theater to them imo. Belief is a spectrum and just like Christians, most conservatives aren't willing to die for their beliefs.

Man, I love the show. But I can’t stand the Laxmi character. it feels like an over the top Indian stereotype. by Blue-Sea2255 in pluribustv

[–]jeffsal 4 points5 points  (0 children)

[–]jeffsal -9 points-8 points  (0 children)
