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

- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Posts must be original/unique
- Be good to others - no bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

I've found it to be quite the opposite. Team Blue opposes Team Red and half of the people on Team Blue too. It's split into all these different agenda and identity groups and they're all so very eager to tear each other apart with labels and accusations if you don't toe the exact line that's currently being drawn. It's a given that any time you have a large group of thoughtful individuals you're going to have some inter-group bickering. But Team Blue is more divided and combative against themselves than I've ever seen before in my lifetime.
