Mussolini got beat to death after his lil foray into fascism.

Gross. Actually revolting mentality.

OH SHIT HILLARY IS DOING A DEMONIC SUMMONING RITUAL RINGSIDE AND ... BY ALL THINGS HOLY HIDE YOUR KIDS ITS ZOMBIE JIMMY CARTER READY TO DROP THE HABITAT FOR HUMANITY HAMMER!!!!!

That would be .. wild. Did not know that judges could deputize citizens. TIL!

Yeah. Garland was the Republican insider that scuttled the case for Trump. I dunno man. My cynicism is at its maximum. I wish I could allow myself to have hope that the right thing happens.

Oooo a slam! We love slams! The drama! The excitement!

Some feckless Republican insider who feigns doing the work and drags it out long enough for Trump to escape accountability?

The cabinet meetings are sick. He makes them all praise him for doing things. Oh thank you dear leader Trump for your leadership oh thank you thank you.

These people aren't Americans.

The lie about immigrants eating cats and dogs still has me absolutely pissed. I cannot believe that went over with the populace. Absolutely vile.

Where is Jesus when you need him!?

Are you sedentary a lot? If so, that's the issue. Start by just getting on the floor and stretching. Get a feel for your body, what makes you uncomfortable, learn about what you can and can't do. Then start working on addressing stuff by stretching and simple things like planking. Then move into outdoor walks and go from there. But don't get straight into exercise mode without preparing your body and mind first. Then everything else will fall into place.

They're seriously running on anti-empathy? They're just outright saying empathy is BAD?

Canada can keep me if they want to. I have a buddy in Toronto I could meet!

The numbers don't lie. All that bleating while America tanks, rofl. Fear mongering about and embracing Russia at the same time. Man, the right wingers really are confused. Politically, sexually. It makes sense why they're so mad. Anyway, you're the first person I've blocked on Lemmy lol. Glad I'll never have to see another nutbag post from the likes of you.

Except in life expectancy, infant mortality, gdp, literacy, crime, and basically every other metric on the books. Nice try though. America is a shit hole thanks to jingoistic fucks like you!

They 100% are easily manipulated by propaganda.

Trump said Biden left the border open? They repeat it.

Trump said trans inmates are using all the taxpayer dollars? They repeat it.

Trump says immigrants are eating cats and dogs and taking over apartment complexes? They repeat it.

Every single talking point, they repeat it.

And the right wing misinformation machine is operating at its peak. They are getting news agencies to change the way they cover stories to be more in line with what the Trumpists are pushing. They are punishing dissent inside the government and in any group that deals with the government. They are pressuring social media sites to increasingly moderate progressive comments. There is an overall atmosphere that is increasing in the country l where it's acceptable to censor free speech. Either you get in line with the Trump administration, or you become a target.

Fuck America and fuck Americans that say shit like this. Signed, an American.

Rofl, America is far from the best.

And even worse? They're losing it all while the offending political party mocks and belittles them. Yeah, it's gonna get bad. They fly Trump flags in front of their houses and wear the merch and decorate their offices with it so...

It won't be hard for the resistance to find them.

I could certainly see this being something they're doing. Flooding the zone to give the impression of support. The problem with right wing rhetoric is that it's very attractive to the uninformed. It's really really easy to be a racist, for example. It's much harder to instill empathy.

I think it's working. Right as people were finally leaving Twitter during the election season and moving to Lemmy, Blue sky, mastodon, threads, etc. The election was already in full swing. So support on the left was fractured and disconnected from the main spaces where it would reach normal folks. Twitter, Truth Social, and Facebook remained strong and their message was everywhere all the time.

What do we do to stop it though? Grass roots grow Lemmy into something respectable? By the time it gets popular enough to matter, the right will invade and corrupt it.
