I hear you, but I think there is still value in voting D, if only to make the Overton window shift slower.

If the election is close or contested, Dems can pretend their hands are tied and let Rs enact their facist bs. If Dems own the house, they’ll need to do something or come up with some other bullshit excuse not to enact more left leaning policies. In an ideal world there’d be real consequences to them if they meandered like they usually do.

It’s not great though, happy to hear your perspective.

What’s wrong babe you’ve barely touched your PediPuree Punch

Keep saying it. Everyone agrees and yet congress doesn’t enact it 🤔 I’m just glad the oligarchs understand the will of the people better than us rabble!

I actually think a lot of people are confused because they didn’t read the article or know what community they’re in, so I’ll take the downvotes in stride.

Trans people are people too no matter which arrow you hit.

I enjoyed reading your replies to this dolt. I think they try to exhaust you by muddying the water but all he’s done is make his position look utterly stupid and exhausting.

I think his goal is to make people afraid to engage and silence others from posting? Or maybe it’s simply to waste your time. Either way, I appreciate your attempt at engaging this bad faith “I’m on your side no really” actor.

Is being a terrible person with bad takes against the rules? I haven’t checked.

The best speech he’s ever delivered

They purposefully distort information to brainwash people.

Prageru is not run by idiots - they are evil with intent and they will train the next generation to be good slaves if allowed.

Agree with you but just want to share the definition of memes with you. Memes can be discussion points, ideas, formats, image templates, or any other vector for transporting an idea.

A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme

Image memes are just extremely easy to digest, and tend to be more enjoyable, so they’re a great method for sharing ideas.

That’s a good point that I hadn’t considered.

I’d expect someone to raise it as a point, though, because I’ve seen the Nazi in a bar meme a million times but never has anyone pointed out the problematic linkage of punks and nazis.

I think it’s more likely that there are bad faith trolls here already that, rather than engage in a discussion, downvote to silence views they don’t like.

Why are you getting downvoted for perfectly answering the question?

Fascists already invading

Are you trying to argue in good faith? Vertices are the plural of vertex.

Authoritarianism is all there is to right wing ideology. Power is in the hands of the few. Adding a vertical axis for different flavors of right/left wing are a meme, and not a very good one at that. If an “enlightened” dictator implemented full communism through sheer military force or charismatic sorcery, it would still be right wing.

I was actually concerned about that when Nate got let go from FiveThirtyEight (though I think he still licenses his model to the site). Is there any further details on why he was fired?

Thanks for the thoughtful reply, I definitely agree. I strongly believe the best avenue of success is through removing the dollar dependence. It feels like there was some rustling when Bitcoin started to gain traction but I believe that threats been coopted by the rich.

How can I subscribe to Lenincatfacts? You have a mastodon or something?

It’s crazy to me that anyone can be ok with someone sharing nudes of someone who did not consent. They’re both adults at this point but it’s literally the president’s son, too. I’m not big on appeals to authority but maybe a modicum of respect for a politicians family insofar as not sharing naked photos of them?

And the response so far is that she can get away with it. So it continues to be normalized.

The people who dismiss her as “just a dumbass” - whether she’s doing this because she’s literally insane or because she’s been told to - recognize the lasting damage this type of behavior is inflicting.

Sorry bud, how about you start a thread and get some community feedback? Maybe your opinion is problematic or maybe the mods made a mistake.

Idk I’m not psychic

Thanks for saying what needs to be said over and over.

My concern is this is all going on the slow cooker. Sending proud boys to prison so they can be trained into better terrorists for next time. The right wingers who were willing to take decisive action were able to organize, meet up, and commit violence against democracy while our surveillance state did… Essentially nothing to prevent it?

Engagement is a two way street, you need to post something worth engaging with.

Occasionally I’ve seen a valid opinion/idea with some downvotes but there’s still usually responses that get a discussion going. Only the true shit has the massive one sided downvote ratio with, unfortunately, a few replies from people who took the bait.
