It's ok kleiner dummkopf, I get it. I'd be embarrassed to admit it myself If I were you, it's not like you make them look good.
I would point out that it's clearly not just Americans who grow garbage humans, but for that to be effective you would have to posses even the tiniest shred of empathy or compassion for you fellow man, but sure. Sit back and eat your popcorn and laugh as families are ripped apart, as protestors are beaten, as they call the military in to brutalize the very liberals you have been breaking your neck trying to excuse. Eat your Caviar and drive your Beemer and just chuckle at how funny it is that Palestinian children are starving to death, how their parents were murdered in cold blood. Blame all the people who actually tried to stop it- unlike heroic keyboard warriors like you who heroically typed your liberal capitalist boot licking propaganda, trying to sew division between two groups that actually united to try and stop a fascist dictator, despite their differences. You are no better than a MAGAt. Go back to sniffing your own farts and feeling superior.
I bet you blame the East Germans for Stalin taking over. The Native Americans for the European Colonists, the Black folks for slavery. Go ahead tell me how it was the Jews fault for Hitler, because after all, they were a part of the Wiemar Republic and didn't vote hard enough against him.
Whatever you say Hans
No, citizens are the opposition to the GOP
What country are you from? In the United States we have a form of Government known as a 'Representative Republic'. A type of Democracy where the people elect representatives to enact our will in Government. The people who the citizens elected to oppose the GOP are the Democrats. It is very much their responsibility.
That doesn't mean that citizens shouldn't make our voices heard as well, I encourage them to do so, especially in light of all the do-nothing Dems not doing jack shit to stop them.
The citizens’ work of putting pressure on the government would have been so much easier right now had “both sides” mentality not elected Donald.
This narrative needs to die. Yes, a significant portion of Americans believe that both sides are bad, and with good reason, but the ones that believe that are not so stupid as to think that both sides are equally bad, and didn't vote for Trump. It was the millions of Americans who are cool with a fascist dictatorship that voted for Trump, and they don't believe their side is bad. The rest of us held our noses and voted for Harris despite her being far from Ideal. All of the people who didn't vote were never going to vote in the first place. People are fully capable of believing both sides are bad, but one side is objectively better at the same time. It's called harm reduction.
Had Harris won, criticism of democrats would have been far more effective.
In what way exactly? If they are fully willing to ignore the will of the people now, what makes you think they would not ignore the will of the people if they were in power? It makes no sense.
would like Americans to elect smarter people. I’ll settle for less evil. Hell, at this point I’ll settle for competent.
As would the majority of Americans. You know what's not going to help with that? Ignorant ass jerk offs trying to put the meme into peoples heads that the fact that the DNC propped up a authoritarian pro-slavery pig was fine and good actually. That the fucking committee that literally runs the elections and admitted in Federal Court that they choose who the Dem candidate is going to be has no bearing on who wins the primaries. That billionaires and corporations have zero interest in politics and are good guys actually who don't put massive resources into controlling the narrative. That the Russians who we know for a fact are interfering with U.S. politics are just innocent bystanders, despite Trump publicly calling on Russia to interfere with the elections. That it's actually Leftists who voted for Trump and the liberal corporate bootlickers are the good guys trying to fight the good fight and actually want change, and whatever other smooth brained takes you pulled out of your 'educated' ass.
Maybe take a look at why the AfD is gaining more and more support each election and try to figure out a way to put a stop to that bullshit before you find yourself in the exact same situation we are in or worse, and leave U.S. politics to people with the capacity for rational thought, that will help a lot more than your misinformation campaign on Lemmy.
Have the day you voted for!
Eat shit Adolf
Don't bullshit me Jerry, and don't flatter yourself.
I really don't give a shit what you are about, you are clearly a foreign agent trying to influence American politics with strawman arguments and only the most superficial understanding of how things work, so your opinion means less than nothing.
You sound just like a MAGAt, ignoring facts just to trumpet your own sad version of reality. Pathetic
Yes, it is quite Ironic that you seem to spend all your time online criticizing the U.S. when you are too much of a chicken shit to even mention where you are from. Weird. I wonder why that is?
What a fucking minute, you are a god damn Kraut aren't you? LMFAO 🤣 No wonder you wouldn't say. This is too precious.
Maybe because you are speaking of things that you obviously haven't the foggiest clue about as if you are an expert on them.
If you are saying you aren't American, that's sad. I guess the Education systems in Europe aren't as grand as they are made out to be.
You know where I'm from, don't be a coward- state where you are from- I'm sure your country and people are 100% perfect and always have been.
You can blame a group without blaming every single member of the group individually.
What an ignorant statement lmfao. When you blame an entire group of people for something, that includes all of the individuals within that group. It's like if you said "All Berries are gross" but then I say "What about Blueberries" and you respond with "I didn't mean Blueberries". If you said "Most Berries are gross" or "Some Berries are gross" or "All Berries are gross with the exception of Blueberries" that would be a different story, because words have meanings.
"The American People" are no more responsible for Trump being elected than "The German People" were responsible for the Nazi's or "Everyone who works for BP" is responsible for Oil spills.
Your lame attempt to use semantic wordplay to backpedal your moronic "Leftists Got Trump Elected" claim might have held more weight if the context of the entire conversation wasn't already which specific groups within the U.S. are responsible for Trump being elected.
Blaming "U.S. Leftists" for Trump is every bit as reasonable as blaming "The White Rose" for the Nazi's or "Joe the Janitor" for the Deepwater Horizon. My assertion that lumping all Americans together as if we are a homogeneous group is reductive, myopic, and ignorant stands.
Public education in the US really sucks, huh?
It sure does, my guess is you were 'educated' here and were bougie enough to afford to emigrate to somewhere in Europe that is a much more normal place to live than the U.S. and now you sit around in your place of privilege judging the people in the country you abandoned when you aren't sniffing your own farts. It's either that or you are one of those uppity Europeans who believes your country has always been perfect and you are better than Americans because you happened to not be born in crazy town and your education system isn't all it's cracked up to be.
Congratulations on your sense of superiority, I'm sure you believe you have earned it.
Well it does seem to be a somewhat confusing subject, so forgive me for getting it wrong. I must have misunderstood or misremembered the information I read when setting up the VM 10 months ago. As I said, I have very little experience with them and was honestly just asking if it's not almost as good. I wasn't trying to 'make it out' to be 'not janky'.
According to Wiki, KVM " is a ... virtualization module in the Linux kernel that allows the kernel to function as a hypervisor."
I wasn't aware that there was a distinction between a Hypervisor and a 'Type-1' Hypervisor, but now I know so thank you for clearing that up for me.
Without GPU pass through you aren’t going to get nearly the graphics performance for something like gaming.
According to this wiki, it seems like GPU passthrough is possible with KVM if your system supports IOMMU, mine does. But it looks like you also need a separate GPU to do that, so that answers my question about is it nearly as good as dual booting.
Every game I have attempted to run has just worked and they seem to run just as good as they did in Windows, so I guess I'm lucky I don't need to really worry about dual booting or VM's. I was just kind of wondering if it would work if I did need it, since that seemed like it would be a lot simpler than booting into a different operating system.
I'm not sure what you are trying to say. I'm not even sure you know what you are trying to say.
"The American People" includes every single individual person who lives in the U.S. Your statement is a non sequitur.
I certainly didn't elect Trump, either time. Neither did my fellow leftists. Not a single leftist voted for Trump, guaranteed.
It's also obvious you aren't arguing in good faith, so I'm way past the point of giving your lame ass trolling the benefit of the doubt.
Get help.
What's wrong with a VM? I set up a Win10 instance in VMM right after I switched to Linux full time 10 months ago, but I had to use it exactly once to configure the RGB on my keyboard, and haven't had a reason to boot it up since.
From what I understood, it runs on 'Bare Metal' which means that it theoretically should preform just as well as if you booted into it, with the only overhead being the *nix which is minimal.
I'm not saying it's better, I'm honestly asking because I have very little experience with it.
I used to dual boot back in the day, but that was when I was still on HDDs and the long ass boot times meant I usually just stayed in Windows if I was planning on gaming that day.
The best is when you have sex, then take a shower together. Washing each other is a big turn on for us and we end up just having a quickie in the shower. Since we are already there cleanup is a snap. Then you can relax all clean and satisfied.
I guess we are just the perfect height for doing it because 'logistics' is never an issue.
I'm not joking, and don't call me Shirley.
My microwave has at timer function, extremely useful.
Wouldn't it make sense though for computer scientists to make some effort to actually learn how to do practical things on computers? This seem weird to me, like a car designer who never drives. Sure you could probably design a decent vehicle never having driven one, but you might make a fantastic vehicle if you have.
"The American People" are not a monolith, we are actually composed of a diverse group of hundreds of millions of people. Blaming every person in the country for the actions of some is reductive, myopic, and ignorant.
Your uninformed take is about as nuanced as claiming Sophie Scholl was just as responsible for The 3rd Reich as Adolf Hitler because she didn't do more to stop him.
Who knows, given your utter lack of understanding, you might well believe that.
I've already explained in great detail how it actually is the DNC and not the voters who decides who wins the primaries. If your reading comprehension is really that lacking, I'm not sure I can help you with your problem. If you still don't understand try having an adult explain it to you.
Good Luck with whatever your issue is. Hopefully you are fortunate enough to live somewhere that you have access to good mental health treatment.
I think you might be reading too much into that statement. They were saying that the Democrats have failed to differentiate themselves on that specific issue, and that's an objective fact.
They also said that Trump was the worst option.
I agree with them that we shouldn't have to keep quiet about what a shit human being politician A is, on the off chance that it might cause a complete idiot to vote for politician B who is just as bad on that issue and worse in just about every other way.
An idiot is going to idiot no matter what you do, and it's not on us to cover up for liberals and their shit candidates.
If the Democrats want us to stop discussing what trash human beings their candidates are, there is a simple solution for that. I'm sure you can figure out what that is if you think about it.
No matter where you are in the world, this is going to affect you as well. You should be just as mad at the Democrats for putting an unelectable piece of shit up against Trump as I am, not making excuses for them and blaming leftists. We didn't have Jack shit to do with it.
The DNC had ONE job, put up a candidate that could beat a fascist dictator. That should have been the easiest job in the world.
They fucked up. And now we are all paying for it. Quit trying to shift the blame where it doesn't belong.
I feel you, my point is that the time for fighting for a better democrat candidate is during the primaries (or now)
And yet even (now) when leftists state even the mildest of criticisms against liberals, we get accused of not being able to differentiate between liberals and fascists. "Both Sides The Same"- right?
And plenty of people do try to get better candidates elected during the primaries. You know who makes that damn near impossible? The fucking DNC. They are the ones who decides who gets the nomination, not the people. In 2016 we finally had proof of that when they colluded with the Clinton campaign against Bernie Sanders, and if you think that was anything new or has changed in any way- you aren't paying as close of attention as you imagine you are. In the ensuing lawsuit the DNC successfully argued in court that the DNC is "well within their rights to select their own candidate". This is despite the fact that their own charter promises ‘impartiality and even handedness’. They argued that was a mere "political promise" (aka an outright lie) and that it was "political rhetoric" that is not enforceable in federal courts.
So I'll ask you, if it's the DNC who decides who the nomination goes to and not the people, does that sound 'Democratic' to you? To me that sounds exactly like the Oligarchs are already in control and have been for a long time. How else are we supposed to fight for a better candidate other than try to educate others?
The vast majority of voters aren't even aware that even went down, because 'surprised Pikachu face' it was barely covered in the 'mainstream media'. The ONLY hope we have is waking people up to the realities of the situation, and liberals constantly blaming leftists for their failings isn't helping that cause at all.
Plenty of “leftists” online actively shit talked Harris weeks before the election.
Ok? Let's say for the sake of argument that all these people you claim to have seen with tons of support here and on reddit were actually leftists. Do you think they were doing that in order to get Trump elected? 'Weeks before the election' pretty much everyone had already made their mind up who they were voting for. The so-called 'moderates' who voted for Trump were not swayed by them.
The sad truth is that the U.S. elections are a clown show and it's more of a popularity contest than about policy. Most Republicans have no idea what Trumps plan/platform actually is other than "get rid of as many brown people as we can", and not an insignificant amount of Democratic supporters liked Harris simply for being a woman of color with a D next to her name. And that is exactly why Harris was less popular than Trump to these supposed 'moderates', because she was a woman and a person of color. I don't know if you have noticed or not, but we kind of have a huge problem with racism and misogyny in the U.S. The few supposed leftists you saw online 'shit talking' her couldn't make her an old white man, no matter how much they sucked on her asshole.
At any rate as I have already pointed out, it's highly likely that Harris did win, but Elon helped his 'good buddy' Trump rig the elections- so it likely wouldn't have mattered if every single non MAGAt in the country voted for the pro-slavery cop anyway.
because they fucking can’t, the are in the minority fucking everywhere.
It's true that they are in the minority, it's not true that they are powerless to do anything about it. There are plenty of things they could do to make life Hell for the Trump administration, but many of them are rolling over like good little puppets. Could it be because the D's and the R's are both basically on the same side and only exist to give us the illusion of choice? Nah, couldn't be that.
The plurality of American voters (almost a majority) are morons with the memory of a goldfish
You'll get almost no argument from me here except for the fact that it's not because they are morons, it's because they are ignorant by design. I would (not) like to see the effect 100 years of anti-left propaganda, "red scares", sabotaging education, crony capitalism, 'corporate personhood', rigged elections, corrupt politicians, media being 100% controlled by billionaires, and foreign interference coupled with an archaic voting system would do to your country but if you think your people would make better decisions in such a scenario- we will have to agree to disagree on that.
Both the DNC and the GOP intentionally keep us at each other throats so that we are so busy fighting each other that we wont notice that the real enemy is them and the billionaires they serve, and they have the not-so insignificant power of the largest propaganda machine in the entire world helping them with that project. Yes, one side is "better", but only just enough better to get around 50% of the vote each election. So weird that works out that way- right?
and now they are looking to shift the blame for what they themselves have caused.
And you are on here helping them to do just that. Do you imagine it's a coincidence that the Liberals are working overtime to blame Leftists for the mess they helped cause? Leftists are the reason that Trump won- right? Leftists are too stupid to tell the difference between the two parties- right? It has nothing at all to do with their candidate being a literal trash human being- right?
why isn’t the question: “why are the Republicans doing it?” in the first place…
That's a fair question, but one with a much simpler answer. If you were a Billionaire/ Group of Billionaires who made their fortune by exploiting people and you had the ability to literally buy the Government in order to insure that will never change- you would be a fool not to. Their job was made easy by having only two political parties to buy. They then set about turning half the country against the other half- again to distract from what they are doing. Then along comes a wild card in the form of Trump. A megalomaniac who used the racism and hatred of "Liberal" ideals and worship of the ruling class that the Republicans had carefully fostered to win massive support among the racist and hateful half of the country. Remember that the establishment Republicans did not want anything to do with Trump when he first started in politics, so much so that the only person he could get to be his VP this time around was formerly a 'never Trumper' (you know he hates that). Once the Republicans saw there was no stopping the hate train, they had little choice but to hop aboard or be crushed by it. et voilà! Fascism comes to "The Land of the Free".
Good Job Klaus, that's just exactly the amount of empathy and compassion I'm talking about.
I didn't vote for him you smooth brained piece of Scheiße, but keep telling yourself that and living in denial, I'm sure that's much better than growing a conscience.
