      Ignoring a comment labeled “test comment, please ignore” may seem like a straightforward choice, yet there are several compelling reasons to engage with it rather than dismiss it outright. First, even a seemingly trivial comment can serve as a reflection of user behavior and interaction patterns. By acknowledging such comments, we can better understand how individuals approach communication in digital spaces. This understanding can inform future interactions, making them more effective and relevant.

      Furthermore, the context in which a comment appears can hold significance. A “test comment” might be an indicator of a user exploring the platform’s functionality or expressing curiosity about the engagement process. Addressing these comments can create a more inclusive environment, encouraging users to feel valued and heard. Ignoring them might inadvertently signal that all forms of engagement are not welcome, which could discourage participation.

      Lastly, responding to comments—even those that seem inconsequential—demonstrates a commitment to fostering a dialogue. It reflects an openness to all contributions, regardless of their initial intent. By engaging with such comments, we reinforce the idea that every interaction matters and can lead to richer conversations. In a landscape where attention is fragmented, choosing not to ignore these comments can promote a sense of community and enhance user experience.

    I won’t sleep with anyone because I despise the willfull ignorance everyone thinks they deserve to have. Does this mean everyone but me is going to become a nationalist overnight? Asking for myself. No friends. I found I despise them too.

    Would be nice if this were true. That would mean the next generation would not be nationalists

      Patriotism is good. Nationalism is not the same thing.

      A Patriot takes pride in their nation, but also recognizes the areas where it can be improved.

      A Nationalist worships their country and anyone who suggests that it isn’t perfect is an enemy to be destroyed.

        Not only recognizes but fights for that improvement because we’re better than that, god dammit. We aren’t the best there is and even if we were it’s not perfect.

        The most patriotic thing an American can do is say the people they voted for aren’t doing enough.

        It just sucks both parties are against it these days

              Why aren’t you addressing any of the words in the image? Does your centrist brain not see them?

              What’s funniest is that my image was there to agree with you and support your comment. I actually upvoted you despite the rest of your comments being that of a braindead centrist captive in a corporate mind-prison.

              In my opinion, here’s your magnum opus of centrist cope:

              Kamala won’t be perfect, and we need to keep pressure on her from the left… But at the end of the day, she’s able to beat trump where Biden likely couldn’t, and she’ll sure as shit be a better president than Biden or trump could be

              Then you go on to completely contradict yourself when you say:

              The most patriotic thing an American can do is say the people they voted for aren’t doing enough.

              It just sucks both parties are against it these days

              Your problem with my comment is that it put your hypocrisy in focus. You’re a Harris/Walz supporter to the core yet you leave comments like the one I was in support of, giving us clues that there is a conscience peaking out somewhere. Trump derangement syndrome has set in so deep that you can’t even agree with your own opinion.

                Man, I thought it was weird before…

                But after I didn’t reply you went thru my post history and replied to like five old comments…

                What’s funniest is that my image was there to agree with you and support your comment

                I’m well aware you agreed with me. But just because someone agrees with me, doesn’t mean I agree with them.

      nationalism is literally putting the interests of the state over those of the people. even on a small, not “extreme” scale, it’s a pointless waste of time and energy at best, and only leads to extremism at worst

      next time you go to one of your high school pep rallies where you cheer and chant with “school spirit,” think about what they’re actually training you to do
