  • I doubt they'd take the average American. Wont fit in the tunnels.

  • My question was "was there ever a good trend from tiktok"

    Icebucket challenge was from before tiktok existed.

    So kinda proving my point.

  • yeah, the cinnamon challenge was dumb.. but it didnt involve mass destruction, psychotic behavor, or contaminating food\ in stores.

    So its hardly comparable.

    Also it wasnt Tiktok. Predates it, significantly.

  • Trump is more like to stir up trouble on the thought he could come in and annex the land after everyones dead/weakened.

  • the people problem of any crisis.

    If you did nothing, and it becomes a big problem, everyone riots over why you did nothing about it.

    If you raised awareness, busted ass, and prevented the issue from happening.. then everyone riots over how much of a "waste" it all was since nothing happened.

  • Give it time, I'm sure we'll have Vietnam 2 before long.

  • Lots of chromebooks have bog standard barrel jack plugs.

  • "FROM THE DESK OF DONALD J. TRUMP.

    EXECUTIVE ORDER ON GOVERNMENT POLICY.

    IF IT DOES ANYTHING THAT CAN BE CONSTRUED AS A NET GOOD FOR CITIZENS, SOCIETY, OR THE ENVIRONMENT, GET RID OF IT.

    ALSO IF OBAMA OR BIDEN TOUCHED IT, GET RID OF IT.

    SIGNED

    DONALD J TRUMP, MEGAPRESIDENT ESQUIRE"

  • I remain utterly convinced that Tiktok is nothing but a chinese psyop experiment to see how far they can manipulate people into actions that would otherwise be prevented by our brains screaming in self preservation.

    Has there ever been a "good" trend on tiktok? Every week its just another destructive thing that gullible idiots are being tricked into doing.

  • What i saw they were shorting the charging ports, not the USB slots.

  • Which is a prime example of how bias the media is towards Republicans generally, and Trump specifically.

    Democrats do something, and its constant harsh coverage.

    Trump literally being a mentally unstable, unhinged mad man and gets the most soft touch coverage that excuses/ignores 99% of his behavior.. When they can be bothered to report on it at all.

    That debate coverage still pisses me off. Biden had just come back from a whirlwind international tour and was jetlagged and sick, attending a debate at like 10pm at night.. and media managed to induce some kind of mass hallucination that biden was a decrepit old man who had no command of his faculties like some kind of dementia patient walking around with pants full of shit.

  • Lemmy devs have a fascist tanky problem.

  • Which shows where their priorities are.

    Not in the greater good.

    Not even in the common good.

    Their priorities are, as always, been in protecting, defending, and hiding pedophiles.. especially pedophile priests and other officials.

    Doctors, Teachers, Therapists, Etc all have a moral and legal imperative to protect children from harm and abusers. Why is it the catholic church fights so hard to argue it doesnt?

  • Bernie Sanders. AOC would make a good vice president for him, and after 8 years make a run of her own.

  • You have to blame media for its part in it.

    Social media played a heavy hand in artificially inflating trump with its complete and blatant refusal step in and curtail any of the deluge of manufactured bullshit, fake AI controlled accounts, troll farm posts, blatant misinformation, etc, etc, etc.

    broadcast media as well, for being so thirsty for ratings and another trump presidency they basically sanewashed every thing he did, when they could bother reporting on it at all, because they knew if he got elected it'd be 4 more years of people desperately turning in every day to see what fresh horrors trump was unleashing, which would drive ratings and revenues to the stratosphere.

  • Nah, don't do that last part.

    he has a face of someone who likes getting pissed on.

  • I fucking hate this.

    Especially when they basically self-hypnosis themselves into the placebo affect and swear that their magic powdered crystal enema can fix everything.

  • I'd rather just make it easier for the assassin to get me and end the bullshit on day 1.

  • Lemmy constantly falls into the same social trap as reddit: that we think we’re some monolith of consumerism and when we believe something we think everyone else will be on our side.

    I dont know why you are whinging about this when literally no one is making this claim. In fact, we are talking about the exact opposite of it.

    Go on YouTube and look up the hundreds of videos from the past few months alone of scalpers and other Pokemon buyers getting into actual physical fights, buying literally 10+ of those huge box sets, and camping out at those vending machines and buying literally everything in them the minute they restock.

    I’m a vendor at comic and anime conventions here in the US. I did a show last month that was literally 99% Pokemon cards and merch, and everyone was buying that shit up regardless. There were actually maybe five booths including my own that weren’t selling just Pokemon stuff, if at all.

    Yes, thats the legions of people we were talking about, before you came in with this weird tangent.

  • and for every one like you.

    Theres people who buy multiple of the console.

    One person in my family bought 4 of the Nintendo Switch. One for him, his wife, and one each for each of their two grand kids.

    and they also buy multiple copies of games, so they don't have to worry about wanting to play a game someone else is already playing.

    and I would not be shocked at all if they buy at least two of the Switch 2 the second it becomes commonly available.
