Social media is a magical place, full of whimsy and good times. Except, that is, for the horribly broken people who yearn to be as miserable as possible, many of whom focus almost solely on politics (Note: I’m not saying that all purely political accounts are run by miserable people but I’m not not saying it).
The worst offenders of the Perpetually Miserable Club (I would have called it the “Perpetually Miserable Society” but a member of that club would have called me sexist) are the ones who appear to exist solely to play “Gotcha!” politics on mass communication platforms like X, formerly known as Twitter. Take, for example, the account “PatriotTakes.”
It is named like it should be a MAGA account. After all, who wouldn’t want patriotic takes from the Internet? However, the name is meant to mock conservatives and, in particular, Trump and Trump supporters….
