Breath of fresh air. Hubris is a hell of a weak point.

As a group maybe. Individually, people still choose what they do, even if the choices are shit.

Stopping fascism is a job!

Everybody give up on everything, somebody who trump and putin both are definitely happy with has stated there's no hope.

Look, there's no normal answers. Which means we know the answers are all non-normal. That, weirdly, is something progressives and maga both want. Pick the least violent and most effective ones, and don't play favorites.

Hell yeah. This is the good shit.

Fascists are cowards, and republicans are getting yelled at by voters in droves.

Your cynicism has caused you to overlook the human desire to slink away from shitty stuff. Don't rule it out. This is a game of trying things that wouldn't ordinarily work. Whatever ends up working will be a thing like that.

Those laws wouldn't get passed until this whole thing is over and there are progressives in office able to actually do things, if that happens. You wouldn't have gun control as the law of the land in two months. And guns need to take a massive fucking back seat in America. No more blood cult shit, because that's what it is.

Go for what you actually want, which is freedom. Freedom is when you aren't surrounded by people with guns.

Until there's no more first past the post, a progressive party would have to replace the democrats, or it would split the "default non-stupid" vote.

Everybody go home, no point in doing anything. You heard 'em.

If about 3.5% of people organize and stand up, then probably, yeah. Not without them, though. That's about what it takes for social change.

This is a ballsy move on Booker's part, and shit like this is exactly why nobody likes the left. Make better use of your time.

Trump admits to personal weakness and lack of grit in person and into a microphone.

 

This seems pretty important to crowdsource and talk about, so I'm gonna go ahead and risk violating the no politics rule from a few days ago, because I don't see a better community to ask this. My defense for it not "being politics" is, I'm asking you to keep it to purchasing decisions and how the details of how the tariffs are likely to work, as opposed to who did what. This thread has the potential to save people lots of money if it gets big!

Tariffs are gonna make things more expensive for Americans; what are you planning on buying now instead of later, or stockpiling a little of?

 

I'll add your hominem.

 

I'm glad the people from Danelund and Germandy are doing their thing on Lemmy but I don't know what the fuck any of it means and it makes for a lot of block button tapping. A toggle would be very nice.

I know I can view subscribed and there's ways around this but I want an "all" feed I can read all of, with fewer taps.

Sync is great, thanks for everything!
