  • lemmy is part of a horizontally scaling network of instances (servers). if a popular community on an instance goes sideways... say because of a new terrible mod or rule change, the entire population of that community can up and move to a new community in another instance without having to create new accounts anywhere.

    this has already happened a few times.

  • the piece that makes me nervous is the selling off of government owned properties. its one of the most valuable and stable assets the government owns and hes attempting to sell it off.. some of it we would then have to lease from private owners.

  • who needs checks and balances when you support a dictator? the constitution is toilet paper to these people.

  • as if forcing everyones retirement into the practically unregulated stock market wasnt already the worst gamble in american history... lets make our reserve even less stable.

    awesome. super genius moves here. congress isnt asleep at the wheel, theyre comatose. they might as well not exist.

  • the only reason would be to prevent impersonation

  • american, european.. looks like youve covered 10% of the worlds population there. hardly 'the world'

  • this is faux outrage. they dont really care as when the crash hits, they can continue buying up everything at a reduced price.

    this is theater to appease rednecks

  • i would guess size and population densities, and government stabilization. what country is 'south america' ?

    theres more people in a larger area in a much more stable form of government allowing those socio-economic realities to exist far longer.

    ie the united states is super racist.

  • its because slavery.

    early u.s. was created on the notion that black people werent people. when those that made money on that being fact were forced to think otherwise, it almost ripped the country in half.

    that animosity.. the desire for non whites to be considered not people did not just suddenly vanish. its festered in america. it is ingrained. it is the 'southern heritage' talked about in whispers (and now out loud) with the new fascist takeover of america.

    a full 50% of america still hates the fact that non-whites are treated as people.

  • cooooool mbin automatically formats it to a local link:

    must be new in v1.80

  • soo.. create a 'sovereign wealth fund' of incredibly unstable cryptocurrency but sell the actual stable values (land) to private entities so we can pay more to lease them than having value owning them.

    what a giant grift. who the fuck would possibly think this is in the nations best interest? where the fuck is congress?
