  • I know someone who almost died of a spider bite in Spain (I think in Barcelona?), please tell me this is super uncommon, I'd love to visit one day but am deathly afraid of spiders.

  • You're selective on which genocides you're against? That's fucking weird bro.

  • Yeah, and if I had to guess, they've hedged their bets and they have money on both sides of the line.

  • I guess he called himself out on war crimes, but Idk what else he’s got. Paintings?

    It's absolutely insane he did that, and almost more insane that he just spends his time painting nowadays (like a reverse Hitler, war crimes -> painting).

    But I'm almost absolutely sure those things were connected. Apparently, the person who taught him how to paint after he left the presidency was VERY liberal (iirc he literally said "well they ain't big on me in that demographic so I didn't really have a choice", it was on Colbert). She apparently berated him on Iraq through all of her lessons, which iirc he said made him heavily reconsider how he felt about his past actions, and he seemed genuinely full of guilt/repentance.

    Doesn't matter much though, you shouldn't have to be berated by your art teacher for hours not to do war crimes.

  • Yeah I always thought lemmy was too small for bots... Seeing literal duplicate comments and how quick the anti-Kamala "about face" was.. I'm not so sure now.

    Though it's often hard to tell the difference between a bot and a person who does no thinking of their own, so who knows.

  • If they stopped taking money for their campaigns, you'd be complaining that they're disarming themselves against the oncoming threat of fascism.

  • So, you feel that all laws should be obeyed, regardless of how you feel?

    Lmfao, so if I think weed should be legal, I can't tell you not to sell weed right in front of a cop?

    There's a massive difference between, "Hey he's just taking reasonable precautions, you probably should too if fascism is coming" and "I agree with all laws."

  • Name literally one thing democrats are complacent on and don't actively want to reform.

  • Touch grass.

    Seriously, you'd have to be chronically online listening to Russian propaganda to seriously think the Democrats and Republicans are anywhere near each other.

  • Nope, but they do have an effect, no matter how you feel about them.

    No point in getting yourself a visit from the secret service because you were fed-posting about Trump, or even worse, that you're visited by the secret service because you're a moderator in a forum that regularly fed-posts about Trump without moderation.

  • This person is like 90% of the time, they literally just told me they'd prefer Joseph Stalin to any Democrat.

  • It'd not "ban crazy" to ban literal calls to violence against a politician, no matter how you may feel about that politician, there's literally no reason to allow that kind of comment.

    The law doesn't care about the possible "morality" of shooting a presidential candidate.

  • What's with the amount of right wing trolls increasing? I mean they always get immediately banned, usually for using slurs, so I don't understand why they keep trying.

  • A literal prosecutor, vs a literal criminal, might be able to make an effective dichotomy of democracy vs fascism in (somehow) still undecided voters.

    But who knows, you wouldn't be happy unless Biden announced he was dropping out in favor of literal Joseph Stalin risen from the grave.

  • Didn't she work as a prosecutor? A literal prosecutor, vs a literal criminal, might be able to make an effective dichotomy of democracy vs fascism in (somehow) still undecided voters.

  • So you're saying the union may break containment and spread to the rest of Microsoft? I sure hope it does.

  • Oh this could definitely be it, let the union exist, get the good press, and then fuck them hard in contract negotiations.

  • At first I thought Hulk Hogan's first name was actually Larry and that he had come out with a decisively anti-MAGA position.

    Disappointing to find out it's just some boring GOP Ex-Politician. (/s mostly)
