Go on X and hang with your treasonous fash friends then.
After the last couple days, I want nothing to do with these fucking backstabbing traitors.
I swear to god Americans will make any excuse they can to stay apathetic. You spent more energy bitching about it here than it takes to actually follow through.
They’ve repeatedly stated that the goal is to get people used to participating in an boycott while working towards doing it for a week or longer. It’s not supposed to have a huge impact.
This why I have no hope for America. We act like a protest should get us what we want overnight when in reality we’ll need sustain pressure in multiple ways for YEARS to have a real impact. It isn’t about doing one thing, it’s about doing everything you can.
Reddit/Lemmy bitches and moans when people don’t organize and bitches and moans when they do.
If Russia and China get what they want then they’ll just want more. You can’t stop megalomaniacs by appeasing them.
Not just the inside, most of the time the outside is just a slot with no other parts or detail whatsoever.
$1.5 billion is chump change compared to social media, are you fucking kidding?
My brother gave up on Trump and voted for Harris last year. It can be done, but they have to choose to do it on their own, and antagonizing them just pushes them back to Trump even more.
The bigger problem is that MAGA now controls most of the media. For every MAGA that sees the light there’s some apathetic low-info genius who joins the cult.
We have to find a way to counter fascist media, and frankly I don’t know how we can do that when the moneyed interests are almost entirely, and unsurprisingly, on the side of fascism.
You mean the ceasefire that Biden negotiated, that is about to fall apart under Trump?
Go move to Russia since you love it so much, traitor.
Don’t try to deflect, you’re fine with Russia murdering gay people.
Don’t care, I’d rather live under the neolib European governments any day than a fascist Russian shithole. It’s not even a difficult choice. It’s not like there’s some leftist utopia as an alternative. The neolibs don’t murder gay people and don’t decriminalize violence against women as a state policy.
So disingenuous. The DNC targeted voters that don’t even exist. Their strategy on the economy was to gaslight voters and tell them that nothing would change from the president who had a 38% approval rating. A president who spent 4 years yelling at then that everything was fine in the middle of a housing crisis with record inflation.
The whining about “unfair” criticism is unbelievable. Give me a break. The Democratic leadership is completely out of touch with voters. Kamala never should’ve let them run her campaign.
And the Democratic leadership allowed that to happen. The GOP did all of this in full public view.
The Democrats aligned themselves with Republicans on economic and labor policy under Clinton, they deregulated the media under Clinton, and they did nothing at all to counter the massive GOP controlled media empire. That’s on them.
The Democrats are weak. Even now they blame everyone but themselves for their political failures. Mainly trans people and progressives. It’s always the voters ’ fault when they lose.
They completely ignore the fact that most Trump-voting independents voted for him because of the economy, not because of social issues. They gaslit us about having the “greatest economy in the world” while we’re living through a housing crisis, record inflation, and a job market full of shitty work and a completely stagnant white collar sector.
Fuck the Democrats. We need to take them out like MAGA did the GOP.
Twitter isn’t making money anyway
Kind of surprised to see that Brave does much better in this test than Firefox with extensions (on Android)
Odd that it’s a choice between them. We learned Shakespeare and Homer where I am in the US.
Oh no people like something, better start calling it a cult so can we can get views.
Social media is such shit.
That started with Bill Clinton who intentionally and very openly ran towards the right. Al Gore was more of the same.
You lost me when you lied about non-votes “fAcTuAlLy” benefitting trump. That is a blatant falsehood that assumes people would automatically vote for Biden instead. Your fear mongering and dishonesty won’t win over a single vote.
To Beethoven and no one else probably
