While true, also under the two party system the republicans are guaranteed to win at least sometimes. If democrats refuse to actually oppose fascism when they get into office then we’re going to end up with fascism after maybe a few extra steps anyway. Fascism has to be dealt with at the root level or it will grow enough to take over eventually.

I’ve heard of coomers and nooticers, but infoormers? That’s a new one, but just as lame.

You’re not informing anyone. You’re pointing fingers and not even at the people who are actually carrying out these policies. What you’re really doing is trying to do a barely-disguised smug “I told ya so”. Those protest non-voters told democrats that they need to clean their act up or they would lose and would you look at that, they were right, so I guess they’re the champions of “I told ya so” but I don’t see them try to rub it in people’s faces like you.

This post is based on a false premise. These people aren’t unemployable, they’re being actively rejected so that the available labor pool remains sizeable and desperate. The automation hype is just that, hype. Just like the gig economy, it’s merely a way to devalue labor and exploit it while selling the idea as innovation. Some evidence: if automation was really going to make so many people unemployable, then why is the news freaking out over the declining birth rate? Surely if automation is going to take over so much work, we wouldn’t have to worry about who will take care of the elderly.

Didn’t the south join in the fight because Britain was in the process of legally abolishing slavery and they were afraid of this abolition applying to colonies?

How can you stand 30 minutes of work?

Looking forward to Tesla reporting Q2 earnings next month. I assume another round of disastrous numbers paired up with some vaporware distraction. Perhaps they can keep this charade going, but at some point reality will catch up.

Ah, Jim Clyburn, the jackass who helped Biden win the primary and put us on the path to the second Trump term.

It already jumped up about 10% on monday simply because the service launched. Even if the service crashes and burns, they’ll jump to the next hype topic like robots or AI or whatever and the stock price will stay up.

Oh right, I forgot that history started on October 7th.

Iran is simply countering the terrorist state known as israel.

If only the parasitic middlemen were willing to reduce their ridiculous profit margins…

Iran has the right to defend themselves and israel has proven again that Iran is in need of this defense.

Wasn’t this the boomer retirement plan? Societal collapse takes a lot longer than one would think.

I think at this point Android is the king of operating systems in terms of what the majority of consumer devices run. Perhaps the path forward is people plugging their phone into a dock and being presented with a more productive interface.

I’m grateful I have the basic technical knowledge of how to install an adblocker. 🙏

I wasn’t on reddit, but I did hear a lot of buzz about lemmy around that time, so I decided to check it out. It’s been one of the better places I’ve enjoyed for discussion.

The democrats should purge the party of these republicans dressed up (and not even convincingly) as democrats, but instead democrats welcome such characters with open arms and will promote them over progressives. If they want to stop people from thinking both parties are the same, they should really do something about this.

Ice is just water at a different temperature.

The difference being even bigger between crustaceans and bugs just makes my point stronger.

lukewarm coffee: gross

hot coffee: great

it’s almost as if different things are different
