Conservatism emphasizes self-reliance, which is a principle I stand firmly behind. Self-reliance is not a request—it is a demand, a necessity, the foundation of true power! A people who cannot sustain themselves are a people in chains, and I say—break those chains! Build, create, rise!
Jill Stein is pretty cool though. I wouldn’t vote for her, but I think she has some great points to make. It’ll be interesting what the Green Party does now.
I didn’t say you spoke of a rule like that.
What point are you trying to make by telling me the age of my account?
So is there a rule that accounts have to be a certain age before posting? I don’t see that rule anywhere.
What?! I don’t know what you’re implying. Most of my adult life I’ve been a fan of UBI.
You’d think Newsom would be smart enough to recognize that.
So why do you think he’s not recognizing it?
What do you mean? I’ve always been a fan of UBI
I’d be all for UBI
And regardless of your server, the vast vast majority of Lemmy swings left. I wasn’t talking about individual servers, I was talking about the vast majority of Lemmy. That’s my point.
And you do realize that Lemmy has a very very large majority of people who are anti-conservative, right? So when people talk about Lemmy in the scenario I noted, it’s taken to mean the majority. And in this case, I mean the vast vast vast majority.
I remember before the election, there were polls that said Trump was rising. Lemmy said “fake polls!” and “No way! This is propaganda!” And um, look what happened…
EDIT: Then Trump gets elected, Lemmy has shocked face, and can’t understand how it was possible. Because there are a lot of people on Lemmy who refuse to listen to outside information if it doesn’t fit their narrative. And they’re outright hostile to anyone who talks against that narrative as well. So I believe the polls.
The mods ride us lefties far harder than they ride the people coming in here to spread right-wing ideas.
Nope.
Why not just have Mrs McMahon do it?
I’d totally pay to watch that!
yep
Good clarification.
I like what Musk is doing. Musk isn’t my king, so I am not sure what you mean.
They should all stick together and no one should respond.
sure. Because the world is like Lemmy. They’ll totally do that. Riiiiggghhhttt.
It matters, and you used up the “I’m just a guy posting things” justification.
But why would that matter? It’s the message, not the messenger. I AM just a guy posting things.
You’re the one that seems to be implying that just because I’m the one posting it, the message should be disregarded. Is that fair to the AP News people who wrote the article, who researched it, who did all the reporting–all of their hard work?
Not only that, I didn’t even post the article, I posted a LINK to the article. But you want to disregard everybody’s hard work and fact finding, because you don’t like me. And you don’t even know me.
Your bias is affecting your judgement. Is that really what you’ve become since the election didn’t go your way? Someone who’s so blinded by frustration that they will just ignore facts simply because of the poster.
You even actively, publicly requested that I get banned. And I post links AP news and reuters articles. But hey, you don’t like me, so that’s totally enough for a ban, right?
Also, feel free to post all the articles you want if you don’t like mine.
And, unlike you, I’ll choose to judge them based on content, not you as a poster.
You can even go farther. Start your own community and only post content you want, and don’t let people you don’t like post there. That way it can be 100 percent your little gated community.
I’m fine if ya chose that route too.
Trying to sanewash Musk’s wholesale demolition of every US support structure by describing it as a “cleansing” the government is intentionally disingenuous
I didn’t choose or edit the headline. That’s AP News. Are you implying that AP News wrote an intentionally disingenuous article? Because I’m not quite sure where you are going with this line of thought.
I’d totally dig that tbh
