I'm doing the best I can, my dude. There's only so much I can do when the entire system is working against us at every turn. Even the politicians that were supposed to be on our side are a bunch of pussies that have no moral compass as long as they get paid. I'm going to protests and I'm trying to keep my friends and family informed (even my MAGA dad) but there's only so much I can do.
And yeah, I'm horrified. I haven't had a good night's sleep since October. I'm basically starting to doomsday prep at this point.
We need help from the rest of the world and right now only Canada and Brazil have shown any spine whatsoever. When all the world governments accepts this BS too, we're all fucked. Tell your government to boycott the US. No trade, no tech, no exceptions.
WE ARE TRAPPED IN A COUNTRY THAT IS DRIVING ITSELF AND NOTHING CAN STOP IT BUT CRASHING THE WHOLE DAMN THING.
Sorry, but there is nothing we can do but wait this out or take up arms, at which point this will all be made worse because the people trying to do good will be the ones framed as the villains which will give the whole establishment further fuel for their sheep minded constituents. What the fuck are you doing except making victims feel worse?
I'm stocking up on ammo for the forthcoming culture war, but I wish people here would wake up to it being a class war.
Granted I am also making Plan B and C to leave the country inside of a year or so...if I even can at that point.
PragerU is a dangerous joke, a barely even veiled propaganda machine pretending to be educational, a privately owned partisan conservative history white washing lie generator with an entire wing aimed at indoctrination of children. It should be ridiculed and sued out of existence for myriad cases of libel, but here we are on the worst timeline propping it up over public broadcasting that has been actually educating kids for generations. Fuck me.
The kids will not be alright, they will be alt-right
Please donate, PBS and NPR really needs it. Especially if you are in less populated area.
JFC.
RIP America
Going from United States of America to Peoples Democratic Republic of Orange Christania in record time.
Super sick.
Release the Trump/Epstein files
I’m sorry but I couldn’t help but notice
YOU HAVEN’T RELEASED THE EPSTEIN FILES YET MR TACO
Imagine an evil Mister Rogers. I think this will be a thing.
Like this?
Unfortunately it's more like this:
Release the Trump/Epstein files
I didn't click your link before, but I have now and I did a little chortle. Well done
Someone unplug this rotten simulation!
Release the Trump/Epstein files
🤢🤮
Release the Trump/Epstein files
One top comment is fine, no need to spam.
The comments will stop once the files have been released.
I'm not saying stop saying it. I'm saying stop spamming it in huge letters in a relatively small forum like Lemmy. I'm fine with the message for now, but people have to consider the side effects that spamming it has on others.
Like, we just had a thread of people disliking celebrities for the simple fact that they were too visible in the media. Did we not learn a lesson from that one?
Release the Trump/Epstein files
What even is the point, I'm just gonna block you.
Nice to have that option. Be well! Stay sane!
I disagree. I don’t see the harm in demanding accountability from our politicians a little louder.
RELEASE THE FILES
You don't see the harm in preaching to the choir to the point of being obnoxious? The downvotes are starting to increase. You're burning through people's good grace and patience real quick... unless that's your end goal.
I thought the point of thread based comments is you can go completely off topic on one thread without effecting others. Don’t like it? There’s like a dozen other threads on the post to read. Many Lemmy frontends will let you collapse a thread if it’s bothering you.
Now that I’m thinking about it, maybe I’ll make keyword filters auto collapse comment threads in my Lemmy frontend I’m building.
thread without effecting others
What part of spamming in a huge font is not affecting other people's browsing experience? Do you see the downvotes? Whether you like it or not, there's etiquette.
But maybe you're right, let me block you right now instead of listening to you defend the absurd.
So, that's what they were trying to do.
Can’t wait for more of Penis Prager’s Fartside Shats.
Grooming the Shitler youth to fight for their own oppression
Yeah I did not see this coming
Actually a clown country
waiter! waiter! more hatred towards minorities please!
also release the epstein files
Sick of these fucking bullshit non profits when profit is one of the primary goals, roast in hell you greedy asshole douchebags.
I thought PBS was shutting down?
The US government stopped funding it, but it was 'self-sustaining' (through donations) already.
Bingo. I'm not sure what would happen if you shut off the woodwrights shop or this old house but I think an home improvement based uprising with chisels and marking knives wouldn't be terribly out of the question.
The Corporation for Public Broadcasting is shutting down. Not PBS nor NPR.
