It’s just so fucking boring… Imagine if every story, movies, TV, video games, etc., went back to only being about straight white men?

As a straight white man, it just sounds so fucking boring. I really do not get it.

Same for society in general. What a boring fucking country with boring food and literally no culture of their own beyond bigotry, that these people want. Just because they couldn’t handle seeing a brown person doing better in life than them. To them that’s an injustice that needs to be corrected.

Couldn’t one person just copy/paste each thing they post on one platform, to the others? At least until it’s clear which platform will be twitter’s successor? They’re all free, so why not hedge? Do you really need to hire another person if you want to have another social media account on a different platform?

Do you think people on Lemmy talking about Linux are trying to court non-tech people? It’s a discussion board, and it has communities for discussion of Linux. What do you think you’ll find when you go there?

That’s right, people discussing Linux. Wild.

What do you mean when you say “this place”? Because Lemmy is decentralized, and it can vary wildly by instance and community.

Hey, I get these references!

Musk wants him to eliminate the tax credit because he believes it will hurt his competition more than him.

They’re not even trying to hide it. No need.

Yes, because the government exists to openly help billionaires eliminate their competition.

Unreal. Dude isn’t even in office yet. They can’t even wait 2 months before going full fascist.

But Democrats will make sure the transition to our new dictatorship is peaceful, so nothing to worry about there!

I’ve been driving a Fusion Hybrid for years now, and it’s been surprisingly great.

Lol no. Often a video game will get called “woke” for simply having a female protagonist with short hair.

My only hope about public radio/TV, going forward, is that they’re already so used to operating on a shoestring budget from the government. It will unfortunately mean more funding drives, but I will definitely be far more likely to contribute if that becomes literally their only source of income.

And maybe without money from the government, they will be more independent, as lately NPR has been sliding right as an overcorrection over idiots that think reporting objective reality is biased because it makes their side look bad.

Did the rules need to change to allow a convicted felon to become President? Why would they need to change for anything else?

Fascism means “might makes right,” and Trump will be commander in chief of the US Military. Which, by the way, is larger than the next 9 largest combined (I believe, gonna double check real quick)

Edit: yarp. Next ten countries combined actually: https://www.pgpf.org/chart-archive/0053_defense-comparison

The problem is that it appears as though there are tens of millions of Americans who are literally unable to FO. Or they FO, but are entirely unable (or perhaps unwilling at this point) to connect it to all the FA they’ve been doing.

Days after the election, I was talking to coworkers who literally said that was just propaganda and he’s not actually going to do it. Because he said that.

Turns out all people needed was a little bit of plausible deniability…

There is a reason Trump is talking about replacing all of our generals (can you imagine the national security risk?) and replacing them.

I’ll let you work it out on your own…

Goddammit, fuck this country. Good luck to you.

Maybe we can convince them to send her to the sun.

He cares about it insomuch as it gives him the attention he craves.

Are you guys for real?? They will literally just cut out the middleman and give all the work to SpaceX instead. Jesus Christ people, read a history book about fascism.

Man, so many people are in for a rude awakening come January, when they realize that their understanding of the previous world order is completely obsolete.
