I think what needs to be said here is- yes it’s so terrible but in general day to day life for everyday Americans hasn’t really changed. That and the general ignorance of things means that people really are not ready to “go strike” or do anything at all.

The overall attitude is more “this is slightly annoying at most” and that is not the attitude that leads to general strikes (nor can most afford to do that here anyway.)

Everyone on the outside in is saying this and that- most Americans don’t know or aren’t affected enough from what they understand to make those steps.

That is reality here. Like I get the arguments but you also have to understand it isn’t bad enough for most people. My thought is once it is it’ll all be way too late.

Quite frankly I feel like the media tilts too far right to get their message out anyway.

Sanewashing in full force, yet again.

History books should note how everything tilted towards insanity led by a complicit media simply for the sake of money.

Won’t change anything in the future surely but it’d be nice to note at least.

To me, they couldve included the meat of the actual bill. They could’ve said what the Republicans actually proposed and why.

You can’t just say “one side disagrees here” without context of what the other side is arguing for.

NPR is far better than most but that’s still an omission.

At absolute best.

My experience is it’s the bottom stack overflow answers. Making up bullshit and nonexistent commands, etc.

Yeah. The original before this had a jack, etc. Actually want the original but apparently theyre not selling it anymore.

He’s not delusional nor stupid. He’s just another in a long line of grifters rising to the top. He knows exactly what he’s doing and sadly the dumbass people in Ohio will more than likely elect him governor. Because we long ago abandoned any sense of reasoning and critical thinking.

I find a bigger issue for me is the lack of RSS. I refuse to subscribe to some dumb social media service simply to get links to your stories.

RSS being cut out means so many are forced to use some other bullshit just to get some semblance of a feed and that includes a whole bunch of other shit and not just what you want.

You don’t have to explain it. Puritans will always find fault. It’s why they’ll also never hold power to do the things they want.

Well it would help if people, ya know, voted.

Mamdani is where he is because a ton of people actually got off their asses and voted. Perhaps we should do more of that so we can get rid of the useless people like this party chairman.

2020 was an open primary and Im tired of the bullshit saying it wasn’t. Bernie lost.

Signed, a Bernie voter.

They didn’t learn in his first term. No way they’ll learn anything here either. These people are completely fucking stupid and never voted for him based on any kind of intelligence.

I mean…

You have people endlessly bitching that dems aren’t endorsing him. Then they do and people still bitch?

I don’t think there’s a lot of value in presenting people with a no win situation.

Well it would help if voters and more importantly non voters did their job. Til then online bitching is useless.

And it’s not surprising he has that answer. I don’t think I’ve seen but one video from this guy but it was him talking about how that lead Dev from graphene was harassing him. And up to that point he was super big into graphene apparently.

Yeah well he also doesn’t have the full responsibility of this admins actions either.

Once he’s the lightning rod for this unpopular crap he’ll have nowhere to hide.

At this point I’m ready to be an early adopter. I’m so tired that Im willing to do that.

This is what I have my eye on. That or a sailfish phone. Reviews seem really good so they gives me hope. Still going to be inconsistencies but that’s a tradeoff I’d make.

They don’t miss it.

They intentionally sanewash all this bullshit.

I guess. I don’t see the sense in letting the right wing drive the car off the cliff because the car is not moving quick enough to your goals but you do you.

And you should be showing up all the time is the point. Including primaries for all positions.

The only way to overcome the inertia in the Democratic party is to, you know, actually participate every time. But in general primaries are very sparsely attended affairs and all these people with such great ideas don’t put forth a candidate or at the least don’t show up to move them past a primary. C’est la vie.
