Rules for Posting Guides on Our Community

1. Defining a Guide Guides are comprehensive reference materials, how-tos, or comparison tables. A guide must be well-organized both in content and layout. Information should be easily accessible without unnecessary navigation. Guides can include flowcharts, step-by-step instructions, or visual references that compare different elements side by side.

2. Infographic Guidelines Infographics are permitted if they are educational and informative. They should aim to convey complex information visually and clearly. However, infographics that primarily serve as visual essays without structured guidance will be subject to removal.

3. Grey Area Moderators may use discretion when deciding to remove posts. If in doubt, message us or use downvotes for content you find inappropriate.

4. Source Attribution If you know the original source of a guide, share it in the comments to credit the creators.

5. Diverse Content To keep our community engaging, avoid saturating the feed with similar topics. Excessive posts on a single topic may be moderated to maintain diversity.

6. Verify in Comments Always check the comments for additional insights or corrections. Moderators rely on community expertise for accuracy.

I really feel like you've purposefully shoved down the memory hole how much of the anti mask rhetoric came directly from Trump's cabinet and network, and how he refused to wear them in public, expect for a couple occasions, because they would mess up his makeup.

That not even talking and how he would undermine anything coming out of the CDC that wasn't positive or contradicted one of the stupid things he said.

Trump was uniquely terrible as a leader during COVID, honestly had he done an excellent job he probably would have been re-elected in 2020.

Trumps sheeple were and still are especially anti-science, and they would have been that way even if a blue boy was president. Americans' behavior killed Americans during covid, not a single fat man living in a bubble telling jokes on Twitter. He's not the almighty powerful demi-god you people make him out to be. He's just a dude. He poops like the rest of us. Don't give him so much power with your obsessive anti-worship.

Yes that's true, that true with almost every country. That doesn't remove any of the extenuating circumstances that Trump created as the executive in office at the time. And almost any other previous Republican or Democrat who had been in office would have done better.

Trump isn't a magician or something, he's was just a terrible president who mishandled every bit of communication. All you are doing is strawmanning a negative opinion against a person who had an important job and fucked it up.

If innocent lives lost is the metric then biden shot the bed. Not trump. What bombs did we supply to who while Trump was in office? I get that you don't care about innocent foreigners dying from your tax money, but your selfishness isn't all that matters. People in foreign countries matter too.
