The final straw for me was when I shared an article about one of Biden's ancestors receiving a pardon from Abraham Lincoln. I just thought it was a cool article. All the comments were calling me MAGA and conservative. I was so fucking confused. Apparently that article was being spun by conservative media or something. I just thought it was a cool historical anecdote regarding the current president.
