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. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Posts must be original/unique
- Be good to others - no bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

MODERATORS
I didn't spend much time there but r/politics always seemed more centrist liberal than leftist to me.
To a Fascist, Liberalism seems like a "left-wing bias".
Liberalism - believing in equal rights and freedoms for all people, and also free trade, free markets, and low taxes - is a right-wing ideology. Obama is right-wing. Biden is right-wing. And so are Blaire, Macron, and Merkel, before anyone brings up the "AmErIcAn pOlItIcS lEaN rIgHt" bullshit. Figures like Sanders, Corbyn, and Melenchon are center-left at best.
