Resist: It's Time

0 readers

We are still in this together, but "this" is going to be real different in the very near future. This demands a different kind of "we."

The French Resistance during Nazi occupation played important roles delivering downed Allied airmen back to safety, supplying military intelligence, and acts of sabotage.

The Underground Railroad is estimated to have brought 100,000 freedom seekers to safety between 1810 and 1850.

It's time.

Won't someone spare a thought for the poor and humble businessman?

And while we're at it, don't forget about the shareholders. Won't anyone think of the shareholders?!?!

Is there a reason so many of the commenters (on youtube) are name+4 digits, or are those lazily named bot accounts?

[–] lime@feddit.nu 5 points 3 weeks ago

youtube changed their account naming system a year or so ago. every account has those numbers now, it's just not visible if you set a display name.

I see that on reddit but not here?

Easy unmemorable throwaways. Plenty of services will tell you that your chosen screen name is taken and automatically offer the same thing followed by numbers, “UserName123” for instance.

I meant commenters on youtube. I should have specified.

[–] Sir_Kevin@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 3 weeks ago

Ooh! Yeah that's hella sus. It's also the Fox News youtube channel so surely they have an army of bots to drive whatever narrative they're spinning that day.

That’s just the default. At some point a while ago I got a pop up about making a username, which for YouTube I don’t care about at all. So I just clicked the button accepting whatever it gave me.

Tim Walz probably:

The comments on the video are mind numbing, as well as highly suspicious.

This is very low energy, possibly low testosterone behavior.

Sticking to your principles even when you face financial hardship as a result does sound like a good person to me, actually.

I feel like some of you think I’m talking about Elon. I’m talking about Walz enjoying Tesla’s market cap shrinking while his state pension fund holds Tesla stock.

Elon is the jerk. MORE
