The reason fascism thrives in American is American society has sanitized itself from strong opinions of any nature.

There are no voices to pierce through the veil of lies because they have been suppressed by a media that rewards corporate hegemony.

Ironically, Trump is a direct reaction to that.

The real original sin of america is that it was founded by a bunch of cultist weirdos. So, now it is cursed to go through a extremly self-degrading witchhunt every 30 years or so.

Welcome to the Unpopular Opinion community!

How voting works:

::: spoiler Vote the opposite of the norm.

If you agree that the opinion is unpopular give it an arrow up. If it's something that's widely accepted, give it an arrow down.

:::

Guidelines:

::: spoiler Tag your post, if possible (not required)

If your post is a "General" unpopular opinion, start the subject with [GENERAL].
If it is a Lemmy-specific unpopular opinion, start it with [LEMMY].

:::

Rules:

::: spoiler 1. NO POLITICS

Politics is everywhere. Let's make this about [general] and [lemmy] - specific topics, and keep politics out of it.

:::

::: spoiler 2. Be civil.

Disagreements happen, but that doesn’t provide the right to personally attack others. No racism/sexism/bigotry.

:::

::: spoiler 3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.

Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.

:::

::: spoiler 4. Shitposts and memes are allowed but...

Only until they prove to be a problem. They can and will be removed at moderator discretion.

:::

::: spoiler 5. No trolling.

This shouldn't need an explanation. If your post or comment is made just to get a rise with no real value, it will be removed. You do this too often, you will get a vacation to touch grass, away from this community for 1 or more days. Repeat offenses will result in a perma-ban.

Instance-wide rules always apply. https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/
