It's a bit of a rant about a pet peeve of mine, but given the amount of wins we've had in the past several months, I felt I might as well point it out. I'm sure a lot of this is just moronic trolls actively trying to screw with people on our side, but I know some people like this IRL as well, which is why I can't say it's 100% trolls.

There's a weird subset of our side that actively does NOT want to win, in literally anything. I see it most often in the 2A community. I have never seen a bigger group of whiney, pardon my french, bitches, in my entire life.

Every time there's a win, or some random forgettable event that has no bearing on literally anything, there's always a decent number of people whining and bitching abiout every little thing.

Here's a few examples. A gun news youtuber I watch semi-frequently to keep up with the ATF's bullcrap posted a video about how newsome is apparently going to Nashville for a democrat party dinner to "outline gun control" for their platform because the cucked governor of TN has been trying to convince the legislature to pass a red flag law after the Christian school shooting.

Good Lord you should have seen the comments. People just outright lying, saying that TN has turned bluer and bluer every election. The exact opposite is true, in fact TN has been turning redder and redder every year, and in 2020, even with obvious cheating in Nashville and Memphis, as exposed in the info from 2,000 mules and all the data from Seth Keshel, TN gave Trump his largest win margin in terms of raw numbers of any state in the union. This is the first time that Texas hasn't had that distinction in like 30 years, and instead that distinction went to Tennessee.

Other morons were ranting about how we need to just go ahead and start a civil war (obvious feds). Others still were blaming californians moving to Memphis and Nashville (It's been proven over and over again that people moving from blue states to red states vote conservative by a 85-90% margin. In fact, I remember finding an article a while back about how California liberals are mainly moving to Portland and Seattle because they "enjoy the lifestyle" but can't stand the taxes. And despite also being liberal hellholes, Oregon and Washington do technically have vastly lower taxes than California.)

But besides the obvious feds and the morons who can't be bothered to do a quick google search that proves them wrong, the most irksome thing was the random people blaming, of all things, "gentrification" for gun control. Apparently, in their minds, taking a crappy ghetto full of trap houses and converting it into livable housing is somehow a bad thing. And I need to clarify here, they specified that it was the "house flippers gentrifying the ghettos". Not people buying a fixer upper and selling it for three times it's realy value, but people buying up and fixing literal crack houses.

Here's another real life example, and this one pisses me off even more. I have an Aunt who, and this happens every time something good happens, refuses to accept a win. She literally complained about the Sound of Freedom and said "if they wanted to do something good, they should have just donated the money to make the movie to fight child trafficking". When shown Rich Men North of Richmond, she condemned the song and said it should be taken down "because he curses too much."

Keep in mind this woman is a staunch conservative, but she just refuses to accept a single win.

I realize this is a bit of a rant, but it's something I've noticed, even on here. I can't say they're all trolls, since I DO know people like this IRL, but I've noticed whenever something good happens on here, there's always a handful of comments on the stickied posts trying to FIND something they can claim fault with or complain about in order to diminish the win.

Again, I realize this is a bit of rant, but I'm just curious if anyone else has noticed this bizarre subset of people on our side that actively do NOT want to win, and try to diminish every single victory we have, or try to make a mountain out of an ant hill when it comes to random stupid things that obviously aren't going anywhere.
