  • Nah, they're authoritarian genocide deniers.

    The opposite of woke.

  • we supported a known liar and are now shocked that he lied to us

  • "We would call it a coup, but we're afraid."

    Can any of these people do anything? It's insane. There's a lot of talk, but no one is stopping anything, or (seemingly) trying.

    There's only so much that words can do.

  • Thank you, kind citizen of Lemmy. I needed that. Too much depressing news lately.

  • Americans need to start taking responsibility for their own actions or inaction instead of constantly looking for someone else to blame.

    Totally agree. I'm not sure when Americans became so complacent that they'd rather quietly observe than, say, protest.

    Looking back on the Civil Rights movement, for example, Americans did what was necessary and right. Same goes for protesting the Vietnam War. Even as recent as BLM protests. It just seems oddly quiet to me lately.

  • Dumb question, but does the page source show where the video is contained?

  • I meant democratic leadership, not citizens.

    Stand down, captain!

  • Final Fantasy 4, SNES.

    (Still one of the best games I've ever played.)

  • Exactly. They blatantly sabotage Bernie Sanders, preventing arguably the last sane politician available.

    More than that, Democrats have gradually shifted right over time, so what is considered "liberal" these days is actually closer to older generations of Republicans prior to Reagan.

    I don't think there's a true left-leaning party in America anymore.

  • Considering the near-complete silence from almost all democrats, I'm beginning to believe that this is something that America was already leaning into anyway, and that Trump is a nice patsy to blame it on.

    How they (the entirety of the government) can sit back idly — throwing out occasional soundbites for good measure — and allow this to happen makes me feel defeated.

    Freedom and liberty were the just the rose that held the thorns of fascism.

    Edit: I feel like I should add that I am in no way trying to alleviate Trump from any guilt that he deserves. Calling him a patsy just seems like I'm letting him off. I'm certainly not. The guy is a total piece of trash. 

  • I’ve enjoyed it for the 1.5 years I’ve been using it. I love the community.

  • Who needs Netflix when torrents exist?

  • “Balanced”? It was a Nazi salute, and they won’t say it.

    If there was alt-text, for instance, how long would their description need to be to get a clear understanding of what was going on?

  • 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

  • Oh yeah, but my comment wasn’t serious. It’s always corruption.

  • Well that’s more people to add to my “go fuck yourself” list.
