So many of the people who are most invested in federation are a contradiction in terms; centralized social media is evil and it’s fucked up that it’s the norm, but also anyone who isn’t a cynical, crotchety Gen Xer with a tech degree doesn’t belong on federated social media.
Yes, but that’s keeping in mind that, contrary to popular belief among the types that go on Lemmy, most people aren’t ideological. They don’t care that Democrat A is this and Democrat B is that, they care about who they think will help their lives, ideology be damned. So, a lot of the people that socialists would call “libs” would vote for Bernie, BUT, most of those people think of Sanders primarily as “more liberal.”
People who are actively aware of the difference between neoliberalism and social democracy, I’m not sure. But I honestly think they’re a rounding error in US politics.
I swear that the DNC convinced her to use DNC-as-usual tactics somehow. As a campaigner I swear I saw the things that gave her the initial burst of confidence in her erode away.
More likely, daisugi/copsing just doesn’t yield enough to meet demand.
And before anyone says “America joined WWII late,” I want to say that’s a lie by omission most of the time. It’s true that America put troops on the ground only after Pearl Harbor…but the US government was already sending supplies to the allies before that; for the entire duration of the war, the US had an anti-Nazi government. Hypocritically so due to the US policies against black people, but some people phrase it in a way that makes it sound like they want us to believe the US was close to joining the Axis before Pearl Harbor (also bringing up the MSG rally, which…you could find a comparable amount of Nazis in any Western country at the time.) Anti-interventionism was the absolute norm in the US at the time.
Now, it is incorrect that US History class casts Americans as the primary heroes of WWII.
Bernie is right. There are a lot of doctrines that liberals/leftists have accumulated since GamerGate that are stupid. One of them is this whole “don’t talk to the right” thing. Hell, the fact that Harris was able to “win” an interview on Fox is proof of that. If she went on Rogan and did well, it would’ve been that but bigger.
Honestly just about every idea millennial progressives had in terms of messaging sucked. Congratulations, you created some safe spaces for yourself. Now people like you but younger have no fucking idea what’s going to happen to them. Sincerely, one of the only zoomers on Lemmy.
US power comes from alliances with a bunch of other pretty damn powerful countries. If it does too much to strain Canadian, EU, UK, Japanese, South Korean, and Taiwanese relationships, US power goes away.
Failure to continue to aid Ukraine weakens the value of US allyship to UK, EU, and Taiwan.
Add Southeast Pennsylvania.
The problem is that the way we talk about dating has been dominated by people with a political agenda.
Because 10 year olds have been talking about dating longer than red pill has been around. Not dead seriously, but they’re not unaware.
Interesting that they see swing voters as “libs” by default.

This but unironically.
Fuck appeals to nature.
“Sigma” sure, but saying “rizz” (etymology: short for charisma) is red pill is like saying talking about dating at all is red pill (and black Americans used it before Kai Cenat made it mainstream.)
Do not use the Trump victory as an excuse for an unfettered fear and disdain of young people unless you wish for more news like it.
I could believe that the Switch Joycons and the PS5 DualSense have a reason to cost as much as they do if it weren’t for the fact that the Xbox One/Series X controller, which is functionally identical to the 360 controller, which wasn’t that different than the Original Xbox controller, costs the same as the DualSense.
Stick drift wasn’t a huge issue before the latest gen.
Canada (from US.) I like where I live, I just don’t like the government.
The kicker? Harris was focused on positivity at first! She switched back to doom and gloom later on.
I’d say start organizing for ranked choice now…but Trump definitely won’t listen. Shit, will we even still have FPTP?
Nixon (also Reagan and Johnson) severely damaged it, Trump is just the end stage.
Does it work if the authoritarian provably CAUSES the economic turmoil?
