My guess: robocops

Don’t they rely on increasing national pride and with it, national identity? They need a steady supply of useful idiots who buy into the bullshit.

There’s still plenty of people who don’t watch TV.

Whatever I want more stories about cool people who make me happy

Here’s the definition

A regulated market is by definition not a free market.

Well, the other animals have stable systems of rules that have worked fine for millenia. We just gotta find a new social order that scales better than tribes.

In this case though, isn’t “no” honest, fully correct, and merely politically unpopular? It’s like if they asked a Republican about gay marriage and he said “no”.

Just imagine those signs

It’s nuts that people are expected to just not go to the bathroom. If you can’t find one and go outside, then you’re “indecent”. Capitalists literally want you to pay them or shit yourself.

lol you really did

When you say “racism is bad” or stuff like this to show how moderate you are, nobody disagrees with you. But then your dig in your heels about absolutely absurd bullshit.

You’re expecting people to give each comment the benefit of the doubt. Lemmy is small and you’ve made a reputation for yourself.

Ah so you’ve just been trolling this whole time and don’t actually have the worst take on literally every subject.

Nobody who said “blue no matter who” in 2024 is allowed to say “what the actual fuck” at this.

People on Lemmy, or Americans, or Democrats…?

“Why do people downvote my posts before reading each one?”

TBF it’s possible that RCV created an incentive for Democrats to nominate a better candidate. They’re smarter than they look.

I called the 2024 election when Biden won in 2020. He was a shitty corporate centrist candidate who was never going to address our deep structural inequality, and so frustrated uneducated people voted for change in 2024. Obama won 2008 because people wanted “Change”. Trump won 2016 to drain the swamp. We’re all so sick of this crony corporate bullshit.

Socialists or we lose. It should’ve been obvious all along that the “centrists” and “Libertarians” are just embarrassed Republicans. America has been sick and tired of corporations overtly ruling for decades and moderates don’t want to own that.

Voters weren’t scared of a dictatorship on day one by a guy quoting Hitler. And at this point, they aren’t scared of socialism, not anymore. The only way we win elections is by supporting candidates who are actually good. Even if a moderate wins this election, they’ll lose us the next election and the good half will be undone. We can only discount the value of the next election iff our candidate will address our broken elections.

TL;DR: Socialists or we lose.

Then the contradiction is calling it the left, when you’re clearly describing oligarchs.
