  • I would argue that we are. 21,000 in Paris is very similar to 34,000 in Denver. The thing us Americans need to get better at is organizing ourselves. We shouldn't require leaders like Bernie Sanders and AOC to get us to show up. The regular people of France are amazing at protesting on their own, and we desperately need that kind of energy.

  • I hope you're right. Zelenskyy not being a politician probably helped him win an election in a country with a history of corruption. People were sick of the status quo and picked an outsider in the hopes it would improve things. It would be great if that happened here. (I don't consider Trump an outsider, that was just part of the grift)

    Part of the reason it can be annoying when people keep suggesting Stewart run for office is that it distracts from actual candidates who are willing to run. And false optimism isn't exactly a good strategy in times like these.

    I would love to be proven wrong, though.

  • I wish I could award this comment. It follows my occasional and unfulfilling conversations with Republicans extremely closely. If the conversation doesn't end with wanting to pull my hair out and put my head through the nearest available drywall, did I really talk to Republican?

  • Vegan ice cream has fiber. Coconut ice cream, unless it's vanilla, tastes exactly the same as regular ice cream. Except it has a smaller carbon footprint and some actual nutrition. It's not good for you of course, but the fiber makes it so it's actually filling. And most modern diets have fiber deficiencies.

  • Right on. Any compromise with a fascist turns everyone involved into fascists. These spineless Democrats are too damned comfortable in their cushy six figure part-time gigs, and need to be reminded who they work for.

    I want everyone who voted to approve the appointments of RFK, Hegseth, etc. primaried ASAP.

  • Fair enough. People are fatigued by the constant barrage of political posts, I just figured there were rules against this sort of thing. I'm new to Lemmy and still figuring out how to even view the rules in the voyager app.

  • Does that list include the same political posts that have infested damn near every other sub in existence? I go to shitpost subs for silliness, not more of the same crap we get everywhere.
