Trump project
  • There appears to be a miscommunication. The event/s that they perform happen, but the vision they see for society changing according to their manifesto based on their actions never comes to fruition. They might shoot a bunch of people, but jack shit changes because of it. At the end of the day, it's basically just weather in the USA.

  • Trump project
  • Nobody writes a 920 page manifesto and then at the very end says "Just Kidding!"

    Mass shooters write massive manifestos all the time and nobody takes them seriously. Just because someone writes a manifesto doesn't mean jack shit will happen with it.

  • Who's the worst president the US has ever had?
  • Handling is a somewhat strong word here though. For better and worse, he's very impulsive and egotistically sensitive. His last administration left a huge wake of people that haven't been rehired and likely won't be.

    Even if we assume his new lackeys care enough about the Heritage Foundation to attempt to implement their plan, I'd be amazed if they could corral his attention long enough to get him to sign anything in.

  • Who's the worst president the US has ever had?
  • We always seem to get this crazy hyperbole that Trump is going to be some competent fascist that's going to perform some great coup that will end the US, but in reality it always seems the real damage he does is the evil bureaucracy that erodes rights and liberties while exacerbating things in foreign policy.

    Jan 6th was very flashy, but comparatively speaking, nothing really happened.

  • How many consultant-class make-work jobs were created by donations to the DNC so they could lose to Trump?

    A general outline would suffice, just trying to get a sense of the scale

    In light of lemmy.world's pre-emptive defederation of hexbear, would anyone support defederating lemmy.world?

    Does any music genre have a disproportionally high number of highly educated artists?

    Was reading about The Offspring due to this post here: https://lemmy.ml/post/2628198

    As I read their Wikipedia page I noticed that Dexter Holland (lead singer) has a PhD in Molecular Biology. Then I remembered that Greg Gaffin (lead singer) of Bad Religion has a PhD in Zoology.

    Is this a trend in Punk Rock or am I noticing a freak coincidence? If not punk rock, is there any genre that stands out in its number of highly educated artists?

    Rick and Morty @lemmy.world OprahsedCreature @lemmy.ml

    Who's the most compelling non-main character on the show to you?

    For me it's Planetina. While the whole episode was as chaotic as any episode, I felt that her arc through the episode was extremely deep for such a brief appearance, rife with symbolism and philosophy.

    I feel like /c/memes has taught us a valuable lesson today: Would it make sense to develop a feature to block a comm from our feed for a selectable unit of time (1 hour, 1 day, etc.)?

    Even if we're subscribed to them? Could a temp block exist in conjunction with a subscription? I love c/memes but holy shit no matter which sort I select by they've managed to overwhelm my feed.

    Hey Lemmy, what are some good public domain books?

    I tend to like the volunteer-read audiobooks on librivox and recently was curious about their Sherlock Holmes books (never read or listened to before), but I'm wondering what else is out there and popular in the community.
