Yeah, I’m not really agreeing or disagreeing with either of you.

I think they exaggerated the “Trump will fix everything” when the general sentiment from the genocide Joe/ both sides crowd was “they’re equally bad”

And clearly, they aren’t equally bad. Trump is much much worse. And we’re seeing ample proof of that.

Yet, the genocide Joe people are still plugging their ears and yelling.

Are you under the impression that we’re only allowed to reply if we’re arguing directly with you?

It wasn’t so much that people claimed Trump would be better. However, people claiming they would be equally bad because you can’t get worse than genocide were fucking EVERYWHERE. Every single thread, even threads not even tangentially related to Gaza or politics. They canvased every thread. And they’re still here.

And I just went back to Reddit after the election. Lemmy is full of the most annoying social warrior edgelords where every fucking thread devolves into fighting from insane viewpoints. The “never genocide” “both sides” kind of people.

It’s fucking exhausting.

But guess Reddit is imploding again. Hopefully we get more normal people to migrate this time to help drown out the nutters.

Eh. The Gen Xers I know all admit they’d be fucked in today’s housing market if they didn’t already have theirs. The are generally very sympathetic and appreciate how lucky they are.

To modify this comic, they sit down for a show and are quickly horrified at the brutality of the spectacle.

Stop. My penis can only get so erect.

Still the only movie I left the theater mad that I spent money on it.

Aliens capable of interstellar travel, coordinating a planetary invasion, that spent decades doing recon ahead of time, and all they do is run around naked. Ohh, and they chose a planet covered 70% with acid (to them) that literally falls from the sky.

So. Fucking. Stupid. And not in a fun way.

To manipulate a murdered person’s sons to reevaluate their perception of their own father because of some public lynching?

Jfc. You people are gaslighting his children, whose father was murdered weeks ago.

Get a fucking grip.

Man. Keep the kids out of the discourse. Have a little class.

That’s not what a share holder is

Litercola? Do we sell litercola?

If they can convert purchase within their launcher, they don’t pay Steam their cut. That’s it.

Rofl, victim complex much? “Punching down” like you’re some repressed minority for having shitty prioritization skills. Jfc

If it makes you feel any better, we’re all actually getting Australianized.

Rupert Murdoch is the cunt largely responsible for the polarizing propaganda passed off as “news” around the western world

I thought the Harris campaigns ads to encourage female voters in red counties was incredibly demeaning.

“What happens at the polls stays at the polls”

I’m male, but I cringed hard at those ads.

I wonder if the had good reception at focus groups or something. Maybe it really did play well, I don’t know. But it made it seems like women were too weak to own their opinions or vote.

Contrary to our stereotype, the vast majority of Americans don’t resort to gun violence or the threat of gun violence to get what they want.

The gravy seals you see on TV are just cos playing and would turn tail and run if they ever really had to put it all on the line. Or even if the local police simply didn’t enable them.

Don’t feed the walrus

It seems likely to cause a rift though as they all fight to take the reigns. We saw in the primaries that no one was even up to the task for taking the reigns from an old criminal drowning in legal woes who attempted a violent coup, and also pissed off McConnell, the next most powerful republican.

I still don’t understand Trump’s “charisma”, but there’s no denying that it seems exclusively his. The other candidates tried saying the quiet parts out loud too, and didn’t manage to elicit any hint of fervor.

He may be a symptom, but a political defeat would stall their fascist movement. And only a Dem controlled house/senate/potus combined have much chance at stopping, or at least stalling, this freight train. And they may just eat each other if we can stall them long enough.

There’s miles of difference between the damage that corporate stooges do versus a literal fascist movement. If this were the 2000s, yeah, I’d be with you all the way, both sides pillaging our futures and all that.

But you’re focused on that asshole stealing your catalytic converter down the street, when you’re actively getting mugged and curb stomped, here and now.

There is a very real possibility of this country descending into fascist dictatorship, and/or huge loss of life from an ensuing Civil War.

Right now, the Dems are at least united like they haven’t been in recent memory because they finally understand what’s at stake. It is absolutely infuriating that you guys are still nitpicking over comparatively trivial stuff compared to cataclysm.

This isn’t hyperbole, this is literally what they have been repeatedly caught expressly trying to accomplish. Yes, it seems like it’s crazy to consider that they might actually achieve their goals. But with everything we know, Trump is still very likely to win this election thanks to people like you who can’t seem to prioritize the violent muggers trying to kill you, over the guy stealing your catalytic converter.
