A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics (NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out)
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

I didn't spend much time there but r/politics always seemed more centrist liberal than leftist to me.

To a Fascist, Liberalism seems like a "left-wing bias".

Liberalism - believing in equal rights and freedoms for all people, and also free trade, free markets, and low taxes - is a right-wing ideology. Obama is right-wing. Biden is right-wing. And so are Blaire, Macron, and Merkel, before anyone brings up the "AmErIcAn pOlItIcS lEaN rIgHt" bullshit. Figures like Sanders, Corbyn, and Melenchon are center-left at best.
