yep, when i’m in the reeducation/reparenting camps, losing my ability to form new memories or access old ones, i’ll remember how the democrats betrayed their voters

They weren't serious, but they should have been.

Ah fuck yeah. Didn't know this was a thing but I'm on board.

It's not quite what we really need, but it does have some resources to get started.

We need to form large groups of like minded individuals that have enough voting power to sway the parties. If a socialist gun club had 4 million members you'd have congresspeople and senators lining up for meetings like they do with the NRA or used to do with large unions.

We're all isolated now, therefore weak. The more groups we form the more we amplify our voices. Most of us are voting "anything but Republican" not for the change we actually desire.

It won't pass, and even if it does Tum Walz won't sign it into law. This is just posturing.

I didn't even realize it was state level. That's reassuring. I assumed it was at the national level. Should have read a bit closer.

My urge to stab people in the face is slowly, slowly rising.

[–] fishy@lemmy.today 3 points 1 day ago

Stabbing is so passe. I'm predicting the new rage will be small pov racing drones with incendiary devices strapped on.

Don't need line of sight, cheap, can train in the comfort of your own home.

Mine has been boiling since childhood but is impotent due to the fact that those in my reach would be neither cathartic or useful. This whole load of bullshit is not helping, can we just get to the civil war portion so I can find out if PTSD is a stacking modifier or if im immune to new forms of it.
