I’m gonna be in the market for a new (to me) car soon and I’m looking to get something ~2015 and older because I hate all the new computer tech. All I want is Bluetooth, other than that I want a normal car not something designed by some dumb tech bro who’s never driven a car in their life.

IMO that tech shit is planned obsolescence. I’d rather my car become obsolete by rust than get fucking bricked by an update I didn’t ask for. Let alone a future government having a back door into it to use as a kill switch and make the car inoperable because how dare I wrong think being anti capitalist, or even if it were on a loan a loan company having the ability to kill it remotely if I run into bad times and miss a payment. Surveillance capitalism freaks me out and needs to stay the fuck out of my car.

I drove a Tesla (work related, not by choice) and you literally have to fucking scroll on a touch screen to change gears (forward, reverse, park). Ignoring all of Elon musks other insane fascist bullshit, that alone deserves him a carbon fiber submarine ride to check out the titantic before it falls apart.

I’ve driven a bunch of other fancy high end electric cars with an over reliance of touch screens for work, and none of them gave me such visceral hatred as that. And the steering wheel is not a safe design compared to normal steering wheels, less places to grip. Fuck I hate that asshole.

More than likely!

Hell he’d probably threaten to nuke us, our maple syrup is just that good

It’s pretty complicated. Our “red” looks nothing like the rest of Americas red. We’re not religious, and those who are keep it to themselves and have a live and let live philosophy. Evangelicalism is deeply unpopular here.

We’re a purple state locally, bright blue nationally. We voted like 80+% for Bernie and 70+% for Republican Phil Scott as governor.

I’d say we’re mostly small L libertarians - pro guns, pro LGBTQ, pro women’s rights, pro weed, strong social safety net for a small state. You also have la la land liberals in Burlington and montpelier who are completely out of touch with the rest of the state. I live in a “red” part of the state and have never felt threatened in the decade I’ve been here, most people are chill.

We’re also overwhelmed by rich asshole second+ homeowners from NYC and Boston but luckily they don’t vote in our elections but they greatly influence things despite that. And our legislature is comprised mostly by landlords which… is great for our housing crisis. /s

I grew up in the NYC metro area where I was routinely assaulted for being queer in the 90s. Hence my take no prisoners attitude when it comes to liberals protecting capital and aligning with fascists. Their support for my kind was never genuine and always performative rainbow capitalism.

Oh fuck off. I’m a queer woman in a blue state living under the anti democratic electoral college. Hold the fucking democrats responsible for their failures instead of crying to me about something I have ZERO control over. I could of voted for trump, Harris, Mickey Mouse, none of if would fucking matter. My state went to Holocaust Harris no matter who the fuck I voted for.

Blocked.

You know who said fuck you to all the above in your comment? THE DEMOCRATS WHEN THEY REFUSED TO PROTECT DEMOCRACY BY HOLDING LEGITIMATE PRIMARIES. THE BIDEN ADMIN WHEN THEY SLOW WALKED TRUMPS J6 INVESTIGATION. THE DEMOCRATS WHEN THEY SENT A BLANK CHECK TO ISRAEL SUPPORTING THEIR GENOCIDE, SOON TO COME HERE TO AMERICA. but like a fucking fool all you’ll do is vote for them over and over again expecting a different result. THEY brought us fascism. Not a fucking queer woman from vermont you fuck.

It was a fuck you to the US government. As if a party that doesn’t even get 1% of the vote would gain any power.

I guess next time I’ll just not vote, would that be better for you? Or should I continue to be backstabbed by democrats? Would that please you? Anyone who doesn’t support the genocide ticket is a fascist right? Typical lemmy.world user.

I voted for de la Cruz, party for socialism and liberation.

I didn’t delete my account I blocked you. Open up a fucking history book, look at the Weimar Republic, then look what came next.

As a queer woman I’m so fucking sick and tired of liberal bullshit. Liberals create the conditions that allow fascism to flourish. In America, when bush couped in 2000, they rolled over, leading to citizens United, 9/11, the patriot act, the afghanistan and Iraq forever wars. In 2008 they bailed out the bankers. In 2016 they fucked over Bernie and lost to a fascist. In 2020 they fucked over Bernie again and the only reason biden won was because of covid. In 2024 they proudly support a genocide and gaslight the public about the economy - just like the Weimar Republic selling out the Germans in their ww1 concessions.

You liberals just don’t fucking learn. And now my life is on the line. Either fight capitalism or get fascism, your fucking pick liberal.

If it’s that easy to support fascism you’re a fascist all along. Typical liberal.

Typical lemmy.world user right there.

I’m a queer woman.

deploying special units, drones and biometric and facial recognition systems to monitor and control the area.

Coming soon to the US.

I hear my coworkers who do night shift complaining about this same issue, but they still pick up night shifts, which I don't understand.

In a word, capitalism.

Calling lib shit lemmy world “too left” is reactionary

As a queer person I’ve completely lost my patience with shit libs. They’re fascists.

Also if they’re that easily pushed to fascism they had it in them all along and were never an ally and don’t belong on lemmy.
