“95.5% of people who are forced to say they like their government say they like their government”

You should be more skeptical, anything that claims to have a 95% approval rating is probably not telling the truth.

Get to organizing then.

lol 🤡

I heard an interview with this guy on NPR. He seems to understand what it means to be a progressive in America and how you can actually advocate for your agenda in a meaningful way.

lol 🤡

Democratic flavored genocide wasn’t enough for the Lemmy progressives so they aggressively campaigned for Trump to really ramp things up.

He won with less than 30% of the populations vote because most Americans decided facism wasn’t that bad so they stayed home. People who didn’t vote for Harris or encouraged others not to vote for Harris looked at what Trump was selling and decided they’d like to buy.

A caucus is a group of representatives, i.e. the other Democratic senators. I think you’re thinking of constituents.

Pure fucking market manipulation.

At this point I kind of hope China goes nuclear and implements a complete import and export ban with the United States. China has the social infrastructure inplace and debt head room to borrow their way out of any kind of financial crisis. The United States does not.

If you count humans as animals then cocaine and clothing from companies like Temu and Shein aren’t vegan.

Cocaine manufacturing and distribution is full of human exploitation and suffering. Using it should go against the vegan ethos of avoiding consumption of things that are the product of exploitation. Similar to honey, milk, or eggs.

Similarly, Shien and Temu make nearly all of their products using slave labor in terrible working conditions using dangerous chemicals without any precautions.

lol 🤡

You’re kind of right about Americans. About 40% want a unrestrained capitalism in a Christian theocracy. About 35% want neo-liberalism. The remaining 25% are divided into 100 different camps with slightly different ideologies they believe so strongly in that they refuse to compromise with anyone. So the 40% win and we get Trump instead and a neat trip back to 1910.

Lol, the dude said he’s hopeful that the Trump administration would do more work to break up big tech monopolies based on the record of one of his appointees. Now you reactionary lemmings are jerking each other off over who can call Proton a Nazi organization the fastest.

You don’t understand how the filibuster works. Please educate yourself rather than spreading red maga misinformation to further your clear pro-Trump agenda.

If you think that Lemmy users are any better I’ve got bad news for you.

Public transportation and walkable cities are much better for the elderly and disabled who often can’t drive due to their age and disability?

Taking a wheel chair or mobility scooter or be guided by your service dog are all subsets of “walk there”.

lol

Hamas has done a great job protecting Gazans so far.

Uhh…the boycott worked extremely well and AB InBev quickly distanced themselves from Dylan Mulvaney.

I’m beginning to suspect you don’t actually understand of what you’re talking about beyond a few catchy slogans you picked up in the student center.

Oh shit, a Democratic presidential nominee was endoresed by one of them? Thank you for bringing that to our attention. Everyone please pay attention. One of these people endorsed a Democratic presidential nominee. Don’t vote for a Democrat for any public office! I repeat, don’t vote for any Democratic nominee! ^{But if you accidentally vote for Donald Trump or other republicans that’s okay}
