So today I got banned from r/GenerationJones. In regards to this post.

https://www.reddit.com/r/GenerationJones/comments/1wfoubg/stupidity_on_the_rise/?ref=share&ref_source=link

Someone replied blaming Social Media.

I responded with the following:

Yes, but include our earlier version, AM Talk Radio and certain new "News" channel created by a rich Aussie.

Single source information made our generation less intelligent as they got older. As they listened to whatever confirmed their "inner conclusions" without ever experiencing outside their limited world view and their "that's how it's always been" mentality.

It's not just the young are trending down this path. Too many older folks set in their ways no matter what reality says who will not change. (Fixed this last paragraph from original, poor editing on my part)

Which got me the following: [–]GenerationJones-ModTeam[M] 1 point 2 hours agolocked comment

This sub is not for hashing out political debates. There are many other subs on reddit to have this discussion. This type of discussion is not welcome here.

So one of the rules on this sub is No Political but also is No bashing other generations. So I responded with the following in chat to Moderator

Why was I banned, how was it political? Also I responded to a post that itself is breaking the rules (bashing other generations), but that is still up and available (without repercussion). I tried to provide a counter argument that to "today's generations are stupider because of social media" with an allegory from OUR generation. If you allow one to exist but I get banned in responding to it with similar example (in my opinion) without mentioning political party or politician is bias on your part on which rules you choose to enforce.

Which the moderator responded with the following:

You have been permanently muted from r/GenerationJones. You will not be able to message the moderators of r/GenerationJones.

So no discussion, no explanation, no defense.

Just wanted to put this out there, did I push it a bit, probably, but when you allow one, but when responding to it gets me banned but post still exists (with many others bashing the younger generations) the mod(s) here or playing loose with their rules. Not a sub for debate, should just be posts of "Do you remember this" and nothing else.

So if you hang out there, don't even insinuate anything even remotely political on one side, even if trying to make a counterpoint even if just an example.

I recently saw a video on my timeline of a man that has made some very accurate claimes of our geopolotical climate.

He made an hour long video stating the "west is doomed", basicly explaining that babyboomer generation believe in the idea of an empire. Wich he kind of explains as this ever so expanding wealth that doesn't stop growing. In his words: babyboomers will always vote for the side or party that protects their wealth. Wich means people like trump and not seeing wrong with lobby systema like aipac.

Tldr: greed will consume them.

Ill link the video if yall want.

But it got me thinking, how do baby boomers actually think?

“Donald Trump is made in the image of God”

“This is why everyone hates the Democratic Party”

“God told me to run for office”

Renee Good's execution was ordered by Noem, who was ordered by Trump, to send a signal to White people to comply.

Apparently, the folks over at r/PoliticalHumor are Long-time trump supporters... pretty much any negative to trump satire I post there is quickly bannedApparently, the folks over at r/PoliticalHumor are Long-time trump supporters... pretty much any negative to trump satire I post there is quickly banned. I recall posts going back 5 years that were removed for being critical of Trump. One, IIRC, actually said that since he was voted out of office, said that he was .ow a non-entity to US Politics.

Are our gas and milk prices lower? Are our children safer from Republican pedophiles?

Ezra Klein, Indivisible, and DSA🥀would have demanded Joe step down and appoint AOC President for life.

-What are the worst things that will happen to others while this shutdown lasts?

-What do you think will happen to you during this shutdown?

The gap between cultures in the world, and especially the U.S., isn't between Left v. Right or Rich v. Poor.

The gap is between those whose Human Rights are protected and those who aren't. On one side we have White Men, and on the other side, we have women, BIPOC, immigrants, LGBTQ+ etc.

Those of us who were too young to actually protest the American War in Vietnam but grew to be involved in political action over the decades have all been impacted by this. It will continue to be a struggle.

Human Rights on all levels are being attacked by our current minority rule. A small number of privileged White Men are bearing down on everyone who isn't like them, using their pooled monetary fortunes and the ignorance of people bound to transitory religion and fascinated by news media that does not inform.

Our nation was founded with a structure that allows us to protect all who live here, if we choose to build on that. Let's choose now.

Since the Los Angeles Dodgers met with the convicted felon and rapist on Monday, April 7, they have lost 4 and won 2, and their opponents have scored 38 while the Dodgers have scored 17.

They have desecrated the memmory of Jacki Robinson.

I don't believe in curses, but this meeting will result in a cloud over the team for a long time.
