A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Avoid politics
- NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
- Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
- Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct-----

Idk one side wants to enslave, murder, and rape. The other does not.
Let's just be friends as they take away my rights and everyone I love rights away, we shouldn't be enemies as they hunt down and murder someone for "existing"
Maybe we shouldn't be friends with the enemy and fight against the regime?
This is one of the was Nazis came into power, by manipulating the mass thinking "oh we should all be friends" and now look what happened.

There aren't only two sides to every issue. Thinking like that is limiting.
solidarity means solidarity. other working class people are not your enemy (re: 1984). the all or nothing mindset accomplishes nothing besides closing your mind off to the plights and perspectives of others.

Seeing people hold this kind of views is fucking depressing.
Advocating for OP, that's the learnt way they see how they can become comfortable.
