Nevermind, they went with an election denier that would love to drag us into fascistism as fast as possible. Hopefully every R in a purple district is replaced come election time.

Obviously if you’re blackout drunk because you “like beer”, the abuse never happened. /s

The right is too far right of the moderates to agree on anything. They need a few purple state moderates to lay down the future of their seat and sit down with the Democrats and work out a compromise. Being in a purple state and you save the house it just might work out for them. Current course is likely to get them all primaried OR replaced with a Democrat next election.

That was added during the cold war by lunatics that thought it would protect us from communism somehow.

It is a way to segregate the “worthy” from the rest (or vice versa I guess depending on if your “worthy” or not).

This is also the reason that immigrants became “illegal”. If they are legal you have to pay them a real wage/benefits/pay taxes for them. If you make them “illegal” you can have very cheap labor (slaves) that can’t rat you out or they are deported. They also only give corporations a slap on the wrist when they “had no idea they were illegal”. Then the corp just replaces them with “new hires” who are totally “NOT illegal” and starts the process all over until the next time.

Sync (at least for me) is broken with the latest rc build. I’m fine with this because I’m the silly that is running alpha/beta/rc builds of lemmy on my instance.

I figured I was just going to have to wait it out, but wanted to post just as a cover all my bases thing.

That is anything but 100% reliable. Have had Sold By Amazon items with stickers on a box you know didn’t come from the Manufacturer that way.

Agreed, when you can look and see one side has the support of the KKK, Proud Boys, and the 3%ers on top of chanting “Jews will not replace us” and dubbed “very fine people” by the leader of said party. And on top of that they also have those that believe in Jewish space lasers, lizard people, and pedophiles everywhere drinking children’s blood. They believe in the “attack on Christmas” and Jews bringing Armageddon where they will all be saved.

If you can look at any of that and be like, “well the other side…” then you have chosen a side already, and it’s not center. It’s probably also time for some self reflection if that isn’t who you are.
