Saying I felt like it is not a justification. Wouldn’t call this a cope either. I know things are bad, but there’s still room for them to get much much worse. I think they will reach that point. It’s just watching the milestones pass now.
There are words and there are actions, but we’re not far off
I don’t know how to make people understand the difference between personal and national debt. It’s frustrating
At least they’re still working under pretense and condition. They “can’t” turn them around because they’re already in route.
It’s not good, but they are using a contrived reason. I’m afraid for the day they stop trying to justify it and keep doing it.
Things are getting to that point rapidly
If they arrest more people after the court order. That will tell us for sure.
I’m not saying things are good right now, they’re pretty bleak
You can find that on Reddit, but now it gets you permanently banned. And that’s why after 12 years of reddit I’m here. It’s a much nicer place. Currently less conversation, but decent quality.
The pressure the DNC seems to exert over it’s canidates is insane. There was probably a lot of pressure on her to toe the line. I heard they reigned in Walz quite a bit too.
Maybe one day the DNC will learn
That’s why I’m here
They’ve broken the law blatantly and have not reversed some things that they should have, but typically they have stopped doing the action when the courts have ordered it.
So they have sorta, but not outright
People felt pain during Bidens admin from inflation and moved to trump. After the pain he will cause I think we will see a much larger shift
Once this administration defies the courts democracy will be over in the US.
It won’t be a one off either, he will then begin doing whatever he wants. Congress will not stop him.
Postponing it won’t matter. Unless he announces retirment we’ll be there
And by privilege you mean access to basic freedom and the pursuit of knowledge.
Most scientists are underpaid and overworked.
26 was the last age I didn’t notice wrinkles and could grow a good beard. The beard keeps people from perceiving you as young.
And that will be their downfall eventually. Once enough everyday people feel the pain they will vote to change it. But it’s going to take a lot of pain.
Hopefully we have midterms
And it’s only getting worse. The roads in my town this weekend were desolate. I fear it’s from people staying in.
Plus walmart is busier than ever, which is a bad sign. People turn to cheaper retailers in bad economies.
Exactly, I love Bernie, but he’s old. Of a new generation of young progressives don’t establish a foothold in the senate change will not happen.
Ot at least not through peaceful means.
We need a progressive takeover of the democratic party. The MAGAs tranformed the republican party in what 10 years?
If we have midterms it has to start then.
This is the truth and you should be outraged, but calling truthful reporting “instigating outrage” is insane
And this is why I’m glad I moved to lemmy. I was banned for supporting Luigi. A permanent ban, after 12 years.
Lemmy has a bit of a learning curve, but in time it’s UI will improve. Then it’s user base will grow. Honestly it’s not that hard to use, but there’s a bit of a learning curve.
I don’t want it to get reddit sized by any means, but for longer term success it’ll need a significant increase in traffic. Which reddit’s admins will be providing with all these bans.
