  • Hi, hello, this is a culture that once committed suicide to prevent being seen as low or dishonorable. Much of that same social family pressure still exists.

    While I have no evidence is wager some poor people in Japan end their own lives rather than be a burden on their country, family, etc. Due to cultural norms.

  • "We have declining birthrates and extremely strict immigration rules."

    "Why is our economy failing?"

  • It's also an open source program for lemmy. We've got a pretty tight knit community as a whole and condensing that down to coders, people with free time, people who want to make an app, and people who want to spend their free time making an open source app.. It gets really narrow.

    Anything we have is a godsend because we'd be using browsers on our phone otherwise.

  • If we can't stop the IDF I hope at the very least Israel will forever be the example of how victims become the abusers. They were the victims of a holocaust and are desperate to perform one.

  • Immediately imagine myself pouring a little bit of nuclear orbs into the front like I'm feeding a small animal.

    "Here you go little buddy, eat up.."

  • Oh I'm not discouraging voting I'm just saying that the electoral college is a problem, faithless electors are and can be a big part of that problem, and they need to be addressed. Even if they haven't swung an election all on their own yet, they have the ability to. I personally also don't like the idea of votes being weighed differently because of the state you live in and it's frustrating to see things like the popular vote not line up with the winner of the election.

  • They have never swung an election

    And the source for that comment is a Newsweek article by Alexandra Hutzler that has no cited sources. I guess this is why we don't use Wikipedia in school.

  • Less the electoral college and more because of faithless electors.

  • I used to think people who voted party above politics were the worst kinds of people. Then Trump won a term and I realized that while party politics were extremely stupid, we have a responsibility to do damage control. Failing to do damage control will result in someone with the IQ of a candy bracelet becoming leader of the free world and doing exactly what you think he'd do with that power.

  • So is racking up debt in shell companies and claiming bankruptcy on them but it didn't stop Trump either.

  • Elon Musk burning billions of dollars to not have his public information publicly posted is one of the biggest Ls he's ever taken and that's a long list to fight to the top of.

  • Haha woah calm down Harry Potter.

  • Going from "Yeah nothing yet" for decades to "milestone, milestone, milestone" is definitely giving some people whiplash but I'm all for it.

  • Depends on who is making the laws that day.
