People that have the need to share "personal stories" with basically strangers are looking for an audience first and foremost. Lemmy has way fewer people so the type of person trying to seek that attention will be going to facebook/twitter/reddit etc. If Lemmy was one of the top-ten most used sites, then we'd see a lot more of that kind of content.

Agreed. Also from the US perspective. Global trade should be for bespoke high-quality regional goods, not commodities. There is basically nothing from China that the US gets that should be made in China and shipped to the US.
The Democrats position on Israel is abhorrent, but I think it had very little to do with their electoral losses. When you talk about how during your 4-years in the presidency, that everything is the best it's ever been yet material conditions do not reflect that, I don't see how you can expect to defend the status quo against anyone.
Add in the debacle of having a public primary, then changing the candidate afterwards, shows voters that you aren't even pretending to follow "the rules" for a democratic process, even if you are totally in the clear legally.
It's bad optics, and it tells voters that you don't really care and can't be trusted.
e: actually nm. But yea, agreed.
The ADL is likely giving a calculated response because of what happened last time Nazis took over a western country.
This is cope. The ADL is and has always been a zionist org and their purpose is to secure a future for their chosen people and their Israeli children.
Another common L from the US Government.
I feel like the next time a democracy wants to protect itself from fascism, that the "constitutional" document should dictate what members of the government can and can't do. And that the punishment for advocating for fascist policies is dismissal from the government forever.
If we took America's Bill of Rights for example, advocating for laws that are on the surface against one of the amendments should result in that representative being removed from office. If Congress passes a law (not an amendment, but a law) then when that law is declared unconstitutional, they should all be dismissed with prejudice.
The right to privacy should be enshrined and people like her should be removed from office and never given a platform again.
This has always been possible with anything anyone has ever posted publicly before social media. I'm glad sheeple are waking up.
If he means forcibly depopulate/abandon all of SoCal in the face of rapidly changing climate, and water shortages, I'm here for it. But that isn't what he means, so fuck him.
I'm sure he did. He had super awesome secret evidence that he then did nothing with. Sure. And the Greenbay Packers would have won if they had used their super secret playbook.
Really strange how some kind of shadowy cabal of people took umbrage to a tweet about Palestine. I wonder who would do that?
Where the hell is the "meta" key and why does every command tutorial online talk about it.
