It's just the latest attempt by the bigots and fascists to keep their base voting.
When a party does nothing for its people, it has to resort to fear and attacks on 'the orher' to keep getting elected. Republicans have been doing this for decades now.
I agree. I voted for Hillary, but we were all sick of the dynastic candidates back then. Two Bushes followed by two Clinton's rubbed people the wrong way.
Plus, the right had been demonizing Hillary for so long, people on both sides were tired of it.
If a web platform is tolerant without limit, its ability to be tolerant will be destroyed by the intolerant.
In order to maintain a tolerant Lemmyverse, then we must all retain the right to be intolerant of intolerance.
Exploding-heads is an intolerant site not just overrun with, but run BY biggots. You have to cut them out like a cancer before all of Lemmy becomes a site like Voat or Truth Social.
Agreed. It's recency bias. Reagan caused horrible damage as well. I don't remember much specific about Bush Srs fckery.
9/11 was coopted into some seriously bad actions and policy. If it weren't for the attack Bush 2 may have been a 1 term president.
