He’s not fucking rich! A few million dollars is not rich in the USA in 2025. How can you be this ignorant?

I’m never going to have a few million dollars, but just because I am lower class doesn’t mean it’s not possible without exploiting others!

It loads a blank page with a title right now. Maybe someone decided that if they put the pages back up they can follow the letter of the order, but censor the page contents.

This is nothing like Joe Manchin. He was literally the only Democrat who could get elected to national office in this state. It was absolutely inevitable that he would be replaced by a Republican. West Virginia voted for Trump by a higher margin than any other state.

Take it from someone who lives in the capital. We have a Democrat for mayor, but that’s the extent of Democrat possibilities in this state. Only in our small cities for state or more local positions do they stand a chance.

The cities here are pretty decent. I love my state, but the people have forgotten our roots. From breaking with Virginia to side with the Union in the civil war, to some of the bloodiest labor rights battles in American history, by all rights this should be a left leaning state. The Southern Strategy was very effective for Republicans, and nowhere is that success more evident than West Virginia.

Pennsylvania is a completely different animal.

If you haven’t heard Run the Jewels, they are the spiritual successor to Rage. Their latest, RTJ4, is their best and hits harder than rage. Zach de la Rocha is on a track too.

Documenting facts with an intention to educate? That’s definitely going to be illegal.

Everyone should be using a VPN and Signal.

CIA and NSA fucking around inside the country would be nothing new.

He didn’t have to. Read this.

It’s all about confidence. If you think you are infallible you will have perfect confidence no matter how wrong you are.

Conman is a shortened version of confidence man.

Fair enough. They are more visible than most commenters, stand out to me at least, so maybe it seems like a lot.

He did indeed vote with the Democrats the majority of the time. Sometimes, sometimes very important times, he and Krysten Sinema decided to fuck things up. This is why he was always in the news and you got that impression.

As always, if there were a few more votes this country would be on a very different trajectory.

You don’t think the Guantanamo expansion is already underway? I mean yeah, logistics, but I’m sure this was well planned before it was announced. I wouldn’t be surprised if construction was already underway.

It’s the home instance of the founders of Lemmy, who are communists. I don’t know their views on authoritarian communism like Stalin or Mao, but people who thought these were good leaders are the “tankies” you may have heard of. There are a lot of them on .ml.

Not much since you’re on .world. .ml is much more strict.

He at least voted majority with the party. Jim Justice will vote with Trump 100%

He’s been replaced by our former governor, a Trump loving Republican. What people don’t understand is that Manchin was the only Democrat capable of being elected to national office in West Virginia. Yeah he sucked hard, but you’ll never see another Democrat get elected in West Virginia outside of local office in the cities.

They think literally everything is zero-sum. If someone else is getting help, that could have been help for them. I have no idea how to undo this programming.

If bird flu is contained then the shortages will stop. Or we could defund everything, let it run wild until it jumps to humans, and make covid look like a wet fart. Which direction are we running in?

Some friends and I that hung out in college had this with 11:11 on the clock. Felt like we’d look at the time and it would be 11:11 once or even both times every day.

What’s unclear about that statement?
