    What kind of anxiety do you have and how do I not get it?

    Have you done any research into her? She’s an influencer type who has been posting progressive content for a while.

        She has a pretty well documented history of working in progressive media and pushing progressive points. If having conservative parents means someone is a conservative then my wife, myself and ALL of my progressive and liberal friends are faking it. Dang it.

          No, alone it doesn’t mean anything. However, when you consider the other factors, is what becomes suspicious

          It is not remotely reasonable to run for districts you’ve never lived in. There’s no good politicians who do it.

            By that logic bet you think CO’s Lauren Boebert’s ® tenure is completely legit, then.

            Typical.

              That’s a complete fallacy. Me believing one thing does not mean I believe the inverted is true

                You started this conversation by baselessly claiming she’s a republican plant.

                  I said she’s likely one, and listed reasons. I did not state as a claim that she was.

          I’d like to also add that on reddit she is known for astroturfing the evanston, Illinois, and cook county subreddits.

              I’ve had issues on some lemmies with edits not showing up. I was unsure exactly what caused the issue, so if it’s relevant I try not to just edit

        That’s bad.faking your views is easy

        For example, you’re pretending that she’s a republican because you don’t like people to your left running. Or feeding the poor.

          She’s not to my left… Lmfao. I’m about equal to her stated viewpoints. Albeit more radical on environmental.

          . Or feeding the poor.

          Oh wow, I don’t like buying votes. Jeez, who would’ve thought?
