Because unfortunately people are similar everywhere. People here think they are smarter than right wingers because they believe different things, but they only believe different things because that's what they were taught/told to believe. A lot of them are also chronically online and desperately want somewhere to belong to; that's how cults form as well.

Put all that together and you have people defending an animal abuser just because he's politically aligned and the figure head of a community they belong to - cult.

The Rules

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Please also avoid duplicates.

Comments and post content must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, ableist, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.
