Right but our country just elected a fascist who wants to install himself as dictator for life, so how do we actually move towards implementation of any of those things considering neither are supported by the ruling party or the corporations that have fully entrapped our government?

Better find out the answer to that question quickly too, because it's coming for your country next.

What do you mean? The people who benefited the most from the collapse of the Soviet Union are the people still in power. I'd argue they did an excellent job setting up the Western hegemony to worship billionaires and empower themselves.

What, did you think the U.S. was going to do something good with that power?

Why do you think Americans gave up on cable? It wasn't because of sports, we still love those and go through way too many dogshit streaming services to watch them. Our shows are so trash even we don't wanna watch them.

I dunno, seems pretty good for queer spaces and shitposting, but I guess .world doesn't know much about either.

It's She's Electric Girl for the 13th consecutive year! Wow, what a winner, can't wait to see who takes it next year!

I'd add another difference: way more idiots. Back in the day, that idea that everything on the internet needed to be taken with a grain of salt was incredibly widespread. It was one of the bedrocks of internet culture, and it'd get memed to death.

Now, the number of people who view everything on the internet as gospel truth has surpassed the number of healthy skeptics.

The thing is, the boomers of the past were wrong because none of that media was promoting violence. They were making it up.

The Tiktok algorithm promotes violence as a fast-pass to fame. It rewards people for making abhorrent trends with clicks.

I would argue that Citizen's United effectively made it impossible for non-elites to meaningfully effect the US political process, forcing us down a road where only those who can raise the most money are considered eligible for political office.

Finally, you can make the skeletons dance to whatever you want! and play it in the background of your low budget Halloween horror movies

I'm always surprised by how small the Steam Deck playerbase is. It has such strong word of mouth, but the niche it supports seems pretty small.

I've good news, the continent's fate was sealed long before that because colonialism was never going to stop.

Ronald Reagan.

Also, while I've got control of the wishfish, I need it to happen paradoxically. I need him to both get turned to ash at the end of his life, so he knows why he deserves it, and before he's able to collude with Iran.

It's been an open oligarchy since Citizen's United. Seems like a lot of people are just now seeing the effects of what that decision allowed. Our Supreme Court was already corrupt, but because they at least maintained an air of dignity, people just looked past the death of our democracy.

Oh boy, can't wait for the Israel government to sponsor some e-sports tournaments to engage in a little sportswashing. Finally, it'll be their turn to ban all the Muslim players, as opposed to countries like the UAE who typically ban Jewish players!

Probably because you're a child.

Sorry but I work with college students, if you're not 25+ you're another one of those children to me. Your writing style is very similar to theirs; it's very stream-of-consciousness with overuse of punctuation to try and accentuate your "points."

Grow up, get your spirit destroyed by the world, realize you can keep living without it, and I'm sure other adults will start to treat you like one.

Why would you be surprised? Why are so many people really believing that there's some mythical good core of the Republican Party?

They're all Nazis. They supported a Nazi who wants to install himself as dictator for life. At this point, there are no excuses. Everyone who didn't want to be a Nazi had 8 years to leave the party. Everyone left is a fucking Nazi.

Stop expecting Nazis to have any morals.

This is kinda why using the pardon selfishly is always disgusting imo; it invites a constant analysis of "why did you pardon X instead of Y?" First Biden tried to make it "okay" by blanket pardoning a bunch of people, but that included a couple of people who actually deserved to be in jail. Now we're at the stage where we're looking at all the people who weren't covered in the blanket pardon but were unjustly imprisoned.

It's just a cycle that doesn't end. I understand our justice system is completely broken, but it's not like Biden attempted to fix it at all.

right, but now the cop has to shoot their gf.

Which given the number of domestic abusers who are cops, still probably aren't crying.

The bastards in power haven't received any consequences for raping children, why do you think this would be a hard line for anyone?

Americans have shown again, and again, and again, and again that they do not value children's live's in the slightest.

It'd put people in jail back in the day.

Good thing rule of law has completely collapsed for everyone above a certain threshold of wealth, otherwise you could hope for consequences.
