You’re getting downvoted but your comment prompts a thought. Would trump 2020 be as dangerous as 2024 trump? The time spent planning and organizing on their part has led to an extremely quick response in destroying this country compared to what happened in his 1st term

Buying a Hyundai of all choices after a tesla is doubling down on shitty car choices

Purists have destroyed progressives chances in America. Protesting anyone not 100% aligned with your idealogy has led us to destruction by a group of lemmings that solely align on group think.

Colbert and Stewart have done this country a massive service over the years. We could only hope Stewart would run for president at this point. Meanwhile you’ll blacklist comedians for daring to use jokes.

I am so fucking over Republicans deep throating the cock of culture war. Focus on shit that actually matters you fucking idiots

Welcome!

With the mod team driving the current environment you’re very likely better off building somewhere new. It’s the main benefit of the fediverse after all

Go create another on another instance

Build it and they will come

Wallstreet will never let another collapse happen. They have too much money tied up in SFR and will use any correction as a firesale to quickly scoop up as much real estate as they can, further limiting supply and stabilizing prices

Guess you should just roll over dead then huh

Ultimately we the people

70% control required of congress to amend the constitution

And remarks like that are defeatist and useless. The only acceptable comments are that I dare a mother fucker to try to become a dictator and overthrow American democracy

The CIA has the opportunity to do the most hilarious thing ever

But can you prove to yourself that your vote for candidate a was cast for your name and no nefarious acts led it to go to candidate b instead?

Can a voter verify their ballot was counted and for who the votes were cast?

Hopefully you have much more robust fraud and manipulation systems of review than the us. Musk very likely compromised the systems and all investigations are stopped in their tracks

We really need efforts made to bulk upload historical posts of value to lemmy. If done right, we could significantly expand the amount of subs and content, even if they are ghost towns initially with just the old posts from reddit. Build it and they will migrate.

In order for lemmy (or any alternative) to really take off, efforts need to be made to mass migrate content. The biggest inhibitor of adoption is the lack of communities, and the user submitted info backing them. Not only would it be beneficial for alternatives to have this on their servers, efforts should be made to index and back up the mountain of how to and general hyper specific sub reddit information for the good of society. The world already lost so much during the last purge of users comments and posts, further enshitification of reddit will only lead to more getting lost. Are any groups working to scrape all (or the most important data) from reddit and break it out in a searchable format here?

Dems lost due to their inability to rally the voters. 8 million stayed home because dems doubled down on their typical bullshit to protect their own status quo rather than fight for the working class. Failure to recognize this brought us here and until we can call it what it is were gonna stay here.
