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
- 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
- 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
- 3.3) 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

MODERATORS
Problem is that people are fairly easily told that their less-than-optimal situation is the fault of those people, regardless of it being true or not.
I mean, I could go on, but I don't think I need to for my point.
People aren't telling me how horrible they are. THEY are telling me how terrible they are.
In the case of MAGA it's more about Trump telling them it's the minorities fault.
