I predict Dems pushing gun control for the 10,000th time and thinking it'll help Joe's reelection chances, lol.

Imagine thinking leftist infighting is a new thing. 😂 And it's a good thing; lefties argue because they give a damn and really, really want substantive change.
Hexbear has always been a place to hang out with like-minded comrades and feel a little better knowing you're not alone. Posting is not going to overthrow the current system. This is the modern-day Pravda that hopefully will push people towards praxis.
The whole principle behind electoral politics is to give your symbolic consent to be governed by a person. Therefore not voting is a principled stand if you don't consent to be governed by any of the clowns being presented. Its really that simple.
Anyone else remember when Trump picked real estate broker and son-in-law Jared Kushner to broker peace in the middle east? Lol. I guarantee the thought process there was just a little racism.
Crowdsourcing the apocalypse...
Know what's really depressing... what may explain record warming this year was phase-out of sulfur fuel used in cargo ships 2020.
Sulfur emissions into the air kept warming lower than it should have been due to thr "global dimming" effect.

So, I guess in a way geoengineering is already occurring... it's just really reckless and unmanaged. Feels bad. 😞
This federation megathreas stuff is getting out of hand, now there's two of them! Hello comrades!
Havana Club - the real Cuban version. Great stuff! Though you need to pick it up outside the US because of the embargo nonsense.
What about EXTREME nacho cheese Doritos™?

But... but... Nazis called their party "National Socialists" and as everyone knows, they were completely trustworthy, never disgustingly distorted facts in any way, and got along all hunky dory with Marxists domestic and abroad!
Lemmy.world? More like lame.world. Imagine being afraid of a bunch of unapologetic leftists who
Hot take: the problem isn't that some workers earn too much, it's that every other worker is compensated too little. Relations to the means of production, folks!
For sports/entertainment in particular, bear in mind that the vast, vast majority of workers in these jobs have - maybe - an actual 5-15 year career at most, and then then then they're no longer considered of value to capital.
That woman's name? Hillary Rodham Clinton
🧱 A spectre is haunting Lemmy, and it looks suspiciously like
For real though, I have faith in our mod team and community that if things get yikes, it'll get reigned in in short order. It would be nice to have greater access to niche hobby comms, and be pretty cool to get other good faith leftie discussion going on. No need to be so insular. Hexbear started as a community on , lol and somehow still managed to be a cool place to post. Don't get what all the fear is about that federation will somehow ruin things.
I swear, history is a big, dumb flat circle.
Ukraine War: "the graveyard of predictions"
Screw em, vote your conscience. I just don't get the whole "voter shaming" thing that the Democrats keep relying on.
Earlier on in my cringe teenage years (before I knew better) I was a libertarian guy. Libertarians seemed to be the only ones in the early 2000s who were against the Iraq War and were saying to cool it on the culture war BS.
