In bad taste only because what you’re questioning may have little to do with which side they were on.

The better question to ask is, how many subscribers did the Democratic state representative from Minnesota and the other have?

This is so true and so sad at the same time that it almost portends a kind of tragic fatal destiny to the US. You can almost see factions warring for no other purpose than to gain "followers" and "likes". (Might even make an argument that we're already there?)

Just sad.

What you’ve described sounds like the logical outcome of Democracy in a post-digital world. I can envision a world where the future Secretary of State was a former Reddit moderator. Or worse. A Lemmy maintainer.

We already have a TV personality for president. I'm not sure it would be much different.
