No, you do not get it.

71+ Million. Yes, 71+ million Americans, decided the country’s fate last year. You are not going to skew this into a whole “blame the billionaires” spin.

Blaming the billionaires and rich yadda yadda even has its stretch. There are countless pieces of evidence that directly say that - yes - it is the people’s fault. It is the American’s fault. You wouldn’t know that because it sounds like you don’t live here and just know.

Trump did everything and I mean everything, to make him look and sound as unappealing as a candidate and retainer for presidency as possible. The guy is a fucking murderer of negligence to over 350,000k Americans during a pandemic. And STILL - Americans willingly picked him.

The sad thing is that it takes tragedies to unite a country.

When 9/11 happened, the country was united for once. Nothing mattered, two planes just destroyed 3,000 lives for everyone to see and feel. Granted, the aftermath of the matter could’ve totally been handled better in all angles. But for a while, it really felt great to feel united.

But it has been 24 years since and even that has worn off.

I expect plea deals, incompetence and tips. The FBI under Trump is insufficient.

How about look at your modlog history and maybe, um, not do anymore of those things?

Just a thought. Otherwise, deal with it.

71+ million idiots. Unbelievable. All over egg prices by the way. Which still aren’t going down.

The most embarrassment of a president in america’s history. Not even the worst presidents before shitstain would have ever allowed things to sink this badly.

Shut up on your social media you big dumb fuck and answer to China’s terms - roll back your stupid fucking tariffs that’s fucking everyone over as we speak and attempt to at least sound like a big boy at the table.

That’s the real reason.

I mean, money can improve so many things. But when you have a bunch of investors and shareholders that have stupid fucking ideas in how to tank things if it means they get out squeaky clean with money, they’ll take it.

I hate getting this when Google absolutely knows that I’m the one logging in and actively using said account!

I get it, verification this and verification that, but for fuck sakes, it’s nothing but an obstacle course that drains seconds and minutes of doing.

And thus, failed on being the Reddit replacement it long aspired to be. Because that kind of behavior is what has already long infected Reddit and corroded it into the way it is today.

I guess in Lemmy’s credit, mind as well do it while it is fairly young.

If a social media platform cannot ever accept the possibility and probability of opinions that work against the majority, you’re effectively building a hivemind regardless of intention.

I think they’re going to try and find a way to kill him to send a strong example as to what happens to people in his place.

But then I hope it does happen because it’ll only make him a martyr.

It’s way too small, even smaller than Lemmy, to really bother.

Here’s my problem with Reddit-alternatives - they only focus on a handful of communities. You’ll have your politics, your gaming, your technology, your news .etc

But where the hell are all of the fun ones? Reddit had micro-communities in spades, that’s what it is known for. If the alternatives aren’t trying then they aren’t trying hard enough.

The sissy billionaire slap fight continues.

If you ignore the social stigma about them about how many ways people inject their social philosophies and other mind junk into the fabric of the films. As well as not look to into things, then it’s just as Star Wars as they come except Disney-fied.

He never did. Neither does his voterbase. Neither do Republicunts.

Everyone to a degree is contributing to the problems we prop up. I realize and understand that even if I stopped doing whatever I feel I’m contributing to the problem of, I’m only one person and I’m not that much of a difference maker. Okay so I stop, but what about the 999 people left that are still contributing to the problem? How long will it take them? Will they ever notice? I doubt it.

If I change for the better then good for me I guess, but just simply me stopping is not going to change the world. This has to be a group effort and until the rest of the group changes for the better, nothing will be solved.

@OP - These are the people I’m talking about.

Thanks for being a demonstrating example.

I noticed this happening recently as last night. I was wondering what the fuck was going on. 30 minutes my ass, for example, I listened to Alice in Chains’ Them Bones which is a 2 minute song, after the “promise” of 30 minutes ad-free and I got ad after fucking ad. Then I get a song, then it’s ad after fucking ad. I’ll be lucky I get 2 more songs before it’s more ads.

I’m actually going to be looking into a media player that has bluetooth in it so I don’t have to ever put up with this spotify shit.
