It feels more and more like it's time to get the guillotines ready.

Here's the only real alternative: https://generalstrikeus.com/

There have been so many offenses by this administration it's hard to keep up and retain them all, but that one day has stuck with me ever since. We got cucked at our own capital in front of the world and this orange bitch did nothing. If nothing else right-wingers should be furious about that. It's insane.

Imagine: you could have passed this comment by and it would have cost you literally nothing. Instead you chose to be a dick AND not answer the question, so instead your contribution is a net loss For everyone!

This is exactly why fees would be revenue based. A flat 1% of annual revenue per offense would very quickly get that shit to stop.

This is ridiculous and untrue. There are a lot of crazy shitheads in our country, but they definitely are not the majority.

Those MAGA folks don't know they're brainwashed, and honestly, neither would any of us.

I challenge this line of reasoning. All that is required is asking the question "is that true?", then attempting to answer that question. There are very few modern conservative talking points that cannot be riddled with holes via 10 min of googling. I understand that people of western society have had our attention robbed of us, but all that is required is a desire to know the truth. They don't. They want to have an interesting story that triggers their emotions. I will not abide apologies for anyone still supporting the MAGA agenda.

The real answer is Michael Kirkbride left Bethesda right after doing all the legwork that led up to Skyrim. The man is reportedly difficult to work with but he is a world building genius.

Well there are brown people down there, so...

I agree, however, "media" (and news corps specifically) have to be very careful about libel in order to avoid being sued into oblivion.

History shows that lasting change happens when people organize, persuade, and build coalitions. That doesn’t mean ‘coddling’ extremists, but it does mean recognizing that not everyone who votes a certain way is beyond reason. Writing off everyone as an enemy is how you lose, and I assume you don’t want to lose.

The problem is we have two groups of people remaining in support of conservatives in the United States. We have the unapologetically evil; and this group will not be reached. Then we have the irreparably stupid. This group is much larger, and capable of reform, but is clearly so incapable of higher level reasoning that they can't recognize that they have been voting against their own best interests time and time again, despite everyone in the left screaming at the top of their lungs.

Donald trump has made it apparent that the only way to reach these morons is through their emotions. We clearly cannot appeal to their sense of empathy, so we will make them feel a shame so deep they cannot hide from it.

Wow that's a lot of salt for someone trying to value their work higher. Maybe just use a different app? Ironically I was a pro user on Reddit and have never been forced to upgrade on Lemmy as it has never shown me a single ad despite the fact that I would in heartbeat ¯(ツ)/¯ , I have never had issues with any Sync app and I've been a user since...I dunno 2013?

I do agree that JDLawson has become more reclusive but he was never all that interactive with the community to be honest. I don't see that updates or stability of the app has really been an issue. Any time I have had problems they have always been native to Lemmy.

It's gotta start somewhere. FWIW I have been following this for at most a month and it is increased by at least 70,000 people. Not that that's enough, but 300,000 people ain't nothing.

If you have spent as much time protesting as you claim,

Spoilers: They haven't.

You do understand you need money to eat right? Am I interacting with a toddler?

Since there is a certain psycho suggesting all Americans go to war for their personal protection I will take the opportunity to ride the top comment with this attempt at organizing a general strike in the US.

You can't just post links to the past like that's the world we are living in. Let me break it down Barney style for you.

If I don't go to work because I was protesting I will be fired. Hell if the wrong people get wind of it I will be fired (best case scenario, and we'll just assume I'm not going to come back home to look for work because I'm protesting!)>>> If I am fired my family will run out of money (as in $0, 0 credit) in about 2 months>>> Me and my family starve/are unhoused>>>protest over.

We actually have a little money set aside for emergencies so we can last longer than the Majority of Americans 30-60% of which are literally living paycheck to paycheck.

We are not in a position to do fucking anything without massive organized movement, and thanks to our geography and 50 years of carefully orchestrated plans to destroy the American middle-class that's a tall order.

They would be dead or in prison. Did you ever think of that?

Such as?

What am i, one unaffiliated person, going to do against a tyrannical government? Go commit suicide by cop? You are literally asking me to martyr myself and my family for your feelings.
