I wouldn't be against a site wide ban on the word 'slam.'
That is.... unadulterated plain and simple clear as day election interference. If I didn't know better I'd say our whole system is in collapse.
Weird. Sounds like Breitbarts source on Nicaraguan prisoners being trafficked across the border. If a man spreads lies and disappears, was there ever a lie at all? /s
I'm gonna agree with varik here. I've noticed a deliberate contingent of "pro-Palestinian" who are clearly siphoning votes from Harris. They seem to be targeting naive leftists and Midwest Muslims, and they always intentionally obfuscate just how much more brutal and awful Trump would be.
While I certainly subscribe to Hanlon's Razor, there's definitely indications that some people think that causing additional suffering before death is wholly righteous. As though said inflicted suffering serves any real purpose beyond their fantasy. Very primitive, yet very human.
If done properly it should be completely painless and almost unnoticeable. I have a feeling they're fucking these up on purpose.
Homer the Heretic. Right before he lights the house on fire. And not from the scene, but: "You can't wait 6 months?"
Oh, I concur. Just alluding to historical situations wherein interested parties ignored or withheld information in accordance with a broader agenda.
October 7th 2023, September 11th, 2001, and December 7th 1941 all supposedly had intelligence reports at least a couple of days prior from foreign sources. I am sensing possible geopolitical motivations here.
He is properly identified as little piss baby Greg Abbott.
Not gonna click on the article but I'd bet this is Maureen Dowd.
My comment and its underlying meaning imply that there isn't enough time to put in a new candidate. Four months from November, there isn't adequate time to get everyone necessary on board, and too much influence will bleed off to Trump. I mean put Biden in now, fix it after we've cleared the election OR put a strong candidate up NOW with unequivocal confidence and put all the money and skill available behind it. Not committing to a strong course of action now (one way or the other) is tantamount to sabotage.
This is a good example.
I get hot about this, @jeffw. You make a good contribution to the site, content wise. Perhaps I could try my hand at balancing things out, if I were up for it. I merely see a preponderance of people or otherwise spamming Biden step down content without proposing a solution, and I see it as propaganda and a direct assist to Trump. So if anyone wants to help destroy our fucking country, please, continue to downvote any objection and obfuscating any positive direction the democrats might have.
quick edit: I think I'm reacting to a fate already sealed and pissing in the wind, likely. Better to watch the remnant embers of what constituted American representative government be extinguished since the people seem very invested in that. Whether they realize it or not, they are in aid of fascism and their own demise.
Wow. So the user that does the lion's share of the posting on news/politics on lemmy.world (from what I've observed) states his confound knowledge of the private conversations of POTUS. The very same lemmy.world that has an overwhelming amount of posted coverage of democrats urging Joe Biden to step down, to an arguably oppressive degree. Without a replacement even considered aside from VP Harris. Four months before a presidential election. With the known American attention span. Smells awful.
For the love of all that is holy, vote blue in November to avoid immediate Fascism and CONTINUE to press for our rights and dignity as human beings!
Not exactly the same but feels like Simpsons already did it.
