I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.

But I do feel that the country went "off its meds" in about 2014...

It IS both sides. Or more accurately, there are no sides. They're one and the same. The government vs. The people.
Whose side are you on?
America has gone fucking insane.
Wow.
Americans say NSA wiretapping is just fine because NSA surveillance is a
distraction from TSA groping.

The government is destroying the US with wars, debt, and tyranny, but what do we need government for anyway?
If a private association like the MPAA can regulate movies, why can't the private market regulate other things?
When the TSA fingers your asshole and pulls your cock, is the real purpose to protect you or to make you feel like a degraded slave?
I’m just angry. I don’t see how so many Americans can go calmly with their days as the country accelerates into a calamity it will not recover form.
Meanwhile, we’re witnessing the training and deployment of a paramilitary force that isn’t afraid to violently execute American citizens in broad daylight, in front of cameras, in front of thousands of witnesses.
Could you imagine the optics if the government smoked a whole town militia? It would be like Waco on steroids. How many local militias would have to be snuffed out before the nation went into a full on revolt over the govt. steam rolling followers of the constitution?
We should seriously bring back well regulated militias to our own personal communities. Things would change fast.
Wow.
Americans say being groped by the TSA is freedom.

In a way, the bot's not wrong; I saw a post just recently saying something about "the one feature that people care about in an SNS is their friends using it", and it is correct. You can see that quite easily by just asking friends to join you on fedi, by trying to appeal on the technical merits of fedi; most people don't give a shit, they use Facebook because their friends are on it, not because they like it.
So, once you hit a tipping point, doesn't matter what features or inherent value your thing has, it's basically fucked: People start leaving and they won't come back because there was no particular compelling reason for them to be there in the first place. But, by the same token, that tipping point is very hard to hit in the first place.
Of course, I am now imagining someone who refuses to leave Facebook not because "it's what's familiar to me" but because they actually genuinely think it's a good SNS, better than twitter, fedi, whatever. I wonder if such a person exists. (Starting from the footnote that fedi didn't grow out of people who simply wanted to hang out with their friends, and indeed, still barely does; most fedi users are the aberrant who care about technical merits.)
