В школе говорят, что мне пора бы поумнеть (Чё?)
Lemmy is my only social media interaction these days, the content has improved, and the communities feel more distinct than they did a year ago. That could just be me getting up to speed though.
It was a nice surprise finding out that the left wing instances on here are actually pretty chill, way more so than on Reddit these days.
How dense can you be??
I know it’s very difficult but try making an argument that isn’t just insulting the other person lmao
How involved do you actually think we are in this conflict??? This comment makes me think I’ve been talking to teenagers tbh. We have 100 troops in that region and that started about a month ago.
Last I checked there have been multiple carrier strike groups deployed over the last year attempting to keep their supply through the Red Sea open. They even shot down a couple of terrorists recently.
They deployed a ton of the naval logistics to do the stupid pier that was only used to launch a massacre in Gaza from too.
Part of the problem is that Democrats made it extremely clear that not doing the genocide was off the table, so the choice is genocide on this timeline and genocide on a slightly faster one. I’m still not clear how Trump could speed this up, short of getting more branches of the US military involved directly in the process, American troops getting the🔻 treatment is probably what it’s going to take for Americans to lose their bloodlust.
Either way, that’s no choice to be made and plenty of people resented the Democrats for acting like they’re opposed to this sort of thing while directly participating in the worst crime of this century so far.
Democrats also demonstrated themselves to be prolific liars (maybe not on par with trump, but close) when it came out that they had been pretending Biden had still been functioning for years, do you think that makes people trust you?
act like a Nazi, get called a Nazi I guess
If people in some far off land have to die so that we can give LGBTQA+ people a place to feel safe so be it.
If non-Americans have to die to protect the interests that empower America so that my kids can grow up in prosperity I will vote to kill them every single time now.
Least chauvinist ‘centrist’ democrat. In another era you would be seig heiling.
With ‘allies’ like this who needs enemies!
The only people responsible for losing the election are Harris for running a dog shit campaign and her Democrat enablers who pretended Biden was still functioning for 3 years.
Quit crying and start directing the blame where it belongs.
scratched liberals amirite?
Maybe the Democrats should have replaced the guy with a broken brain when they realized it instead of lying for years and only making the switch when it was undeniable.
The Harris campaign was such hot garbage that they lost by more of a margin than all 3rd party votes, but yeah keep blaming voters instead of learning anything.
Maybe the Democrats shouldn’t have pretended Biden was still functioning for 3+ years instead of waiting until he died on the debate stage. Kamala running a dogshit 3 month campaign where she ran to the right of Biden didn’t help.
Materially maybe they shouldn’t have kicked 14+ million people off Medicaid by ‘ending’ COVID. That’s 3x their margin of loss and things like losing health coverage piss people off.
She lost by more than the margin of every third party vote combined.
a new popular front is forming:
So glad the Democrats upheld norms instead of doing shit to stop this
Europe is still buying their gas
They are, it’s just taking indirect routes which adds a premium, and for natural gas I think they’re stuck replacing that with mostly ~40% American LNG (about as bad as coal in terms of total ghg emissions), which is expensive too.
I think a part of the inflation is probably due to cutting off Europe from one of the world’s largest gas producers, while simultaneously all high value shipping has to circumnavigate Africa to get to Europe from Asia.
Energy and shipping cost increases are the perfect cover for price gouging
I lost all my sanity points decades ago. I also purged my social circle back during the second intifada, and by opposing the Iraq/Afghanistan wars- categorically improved my mental health as a result- I didn’t even have to cut anyone out of my life after Oct 7!
Fortunately their hand-picked successor is on the ballot!
I’d set it up as a death match where they are all dropped into different parts of an island and have to survive with what they can find
I had a friend in college who I was briefly interested in, she was nice but I found her to be way too conservative for me to really feel comfortable with so in hindsight I’m glad she ended up dating ( and dumping) one of my other friends instead.
