Can’t wait for this to be the norm going forward.
We’re going to have so many years of unwinding all of the terrible changes that are coming our way. If we ever have the chance to unwind them.
I meant funding them but I guess that's also a possibility.
Musk goes all in on 2026 mid terms and the 2028 presidential elections for the libertarian party.
There's a cognitive dissonance on Lemmy. I keep seeing people post the electorate is stupid for electing trump or staying home while also seeing posts like this acknowledging that the democratic party isn't listening to the constituency. I realize it's likely very different audiences but this is very much a bubble among liberals which unfortunately make up a large part of the party voting base. They were fine with everything continuing to suck a tiny bit more because the alternative was Trump. I think people are just squeezed and exhausted. They're tired of being given the narrative that this is the election that will end all elections while things continue to get worse around the margins. And I think the people that would vote for systemic change don't see Democrats capable of delivering on anything substantive.
Note: This is not an endorsement of Trump or not voting at all as a result. But people really need to reckon with how broken shit is before blaming voters. Democrats have no incentives to fix anything.
JD Vance (and Peter Thiel, David Sacks, Elon Musk) is not a replacement I would welcome in the event of Trump no longer being able to be president.
This is how you get new alliances around the world against the US. This could spiral very quickly.
People about to be surprised that the leopards are eating their faces.
Exactly this. Meanwhile food prices are high, homes and rents are unaffordable, and healthcare sucks, and tuition is through the roof. Biden sending billions to fund a genocide while all of this shit was happening at home was the demotivation people needed to stay home.
"Every allegation is a confession" example 1 billion.
All of it.
I hear you. I agree that union busting is bad. I support trader joes employees unionizing. I don't want their stores to close and those employees to be out of a job.
Trader Joe’s, aldi, and small private stores from now on. Go fuck yourselves Kroeger.
No. In the non sales world, I've built some really cool solutions for clients.
I work for a consulting company and they're truly going off the deep end pushing consultants to sell this miracle solution. They are now doing weekly product demos and all of them are absolutely useless hype grifts. It's maddening.
The escalation was the pager detonation war crime that Israel committed in mid September. This article framing is bullshit.
I think it's absolutely appalling that Sony is raising prices on controllers while basically under supplying the dual sense edge joysticks and refusing to fix the stick drift issues. I have 3 controllers and each one of them has the same problem after a few months. It's maddening.
Kamala Harris has told allies that he she has chosen Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz
Walz doesn’t hail from a traditional battleground state, but his credentials as a military veteran and gun owner who previously represented a Republican-leaning rural part of Minnesota in Congress could help Harris.
Hilary Clinton Endorses George Latimer in Challenge to Unseat Jamaal Bowman
If you need a clearer example of how the Clintons are opportunist scumbags that will use race to get elected in one breath and throw minorities under the bus if they don't agree with their horrific world views.
AMC was very apologetic about it, but Lucky Hank is nonetheless canceled
Absolute shame that this show got canceled.
can you imagine an American grocery chain standing up to their vendors?
French supermarket chain Carrefour has slapped price warnings on products ranging from Lindt chocolates to Lipton Ice Tea to pressure suppliers such as Nestlé, PepsiCo and Unilever to cut their prices.
The difference between European countries and America is becoming so stark. Anyone reading or watching global news has to see how backwards this country is and that it’s only getting worse.
Intuit plans appeal, slams FTC's "predetermined decision."
It’s about time that Intuit was called out for their scam. Hopefully, the attempt to stop the federal tax filing will get dismissed as well.
