if u carefully read my comment u will notice that i only used the word “good” to say something was not good, because it isnt good, non of it is and thats not what was asked the question was how is voting for democrats any better, yes its not good enough that much is self evident, i never said it was, that was never the claim i said it was better. there are 2 options at the federal level neither is good and again i didnt say either was but if u are going to bother to vote one is better.

ur response doesnt even engage with what i said at all, pointing out that the measures are half ass doesnt in any way contradict that they are better than the alternative of literally nothing, pointing out that biden is bad does not exclude the possibility that he is better. it is just mind boggling to me that some people can not understand the meaning of better and lesser it is just so bizarre.

when liberals say the communist oppressed lgbtq people thing they mean it as a criticism of communism in comparison to capitalism, as in “the ussr under stalin had bad lgbtq legislation therefore capitalism is a better system” this is a rejection of that criticism because how could this possibly indicate that capitalism is better when the failure of communist in this particular case is that they werent better capitalist like they were supposed to be.

we got some train money and the usa is back on the paris accord and they passed the best climate legislation the usa has (to be clear because i know u dont understand the word “best” it is not good nor enough it less bad than everything else), we got some student loan debt relief. a few good things have actually happened that would almost certainly not have happened otherwise.

stemlords?

what is that supposed to mean?

u forgot to put the Secretarybird in god tier u know the coolest bird. also the portuguese man o’ wars is a strong d tier contender those things are weird and disgusting and they sting.

nothing apple ever has a normal price

while u can make a case that what the european powers did in what is now the united states was continued by the usa its insane to say that it is the same event as what other or the same european powers did elsewhere some of these genocides are separated by centuries they were carried by different people often from different countries using different tactics for different reasons to completely different people who were not in contact with eachother and they often did this without even known what other colonizers were doing, the idea that what the european powers were doing was somehow cohesive is ridiculous.

i think ur scale of time is way out of whack for this, for example the peoples of the caribbean had already been complety erased for decades before jamestown had been stablished let alone the colonies let alone an american national identity.

And also the original meme about the united states not the entirety of the americas it was about what the united states did which israel and nazi germany copied.

yes 130 million in the americas not in what is now the usa the most populated areas where in central america and the Andes. even high estimates for what is now the usa and canada are at around 8 million the highest dont go above 13 million which is around the number of soviet civilians the nazis killed and much lower that the total number of civilians the nazis killed. and going even further most of those people died from diseases. by the time the usa became a country there were only 700k indegenous people in what is now the the contiguous us i think its fair to say the usa is responsible for the genocides that happened even before that but point is in terms of raw numbers there is no comparison.

u say in terms of scale it was the most expansive but what scales are those.

Biggest genocide by what metrics? Certainly not by percent, the genocides in the Caribbean take the grim prize there, and even the highest estimates of pre 1492 population of us and canada combined are lower than the number of soviet civilians alone that the nazis killed and not all of those people died and most of those who died did so from disease before the genocide even begun so it cant be by raw numbers. so im curious by what metric u evaluate it to be the biggest genocide? maybe by land area held while doing the genocide? but im pretty sure even then the tsar’s russia would win.

just because something isnt to ur taste doesnt mean it should not exits. It does exists because someone thought it was worth making and as long as no one was hurt in the making of it why should u care. And i would guess the point of being edgy is just to be edgy to some people thats just cool.

Maybe its true, in the west they dont disappear journalist, here those who run afoul of the ruling class simply suicide by shooting themselves… in the back of the head… with a revolver… twice. Discretion is just not necessary.

yeah so many propagandists point to the slow down in economic growth from “socialist god” levels to “economic miracle” levels and are like china is falling apart they are due for a depression any day

Stalinist.

its good math absolutely horrible psychology(because its not meant to be). If u want insight into the logic and math it is meant to describe then yeah its great and its cool if u want insight into the motives and future actions of people which is what it is generally sold as in pop science settings and grifts its not insightful at all. It is a field of mathematics u wouldn’t study calculus to understand people better game theory is no different, the idea that it would help is ridiculous.

u can “touch grass” without going outside there are other things to do without going outside besides being mad at the shitty part of the internet maybe try to find new hobbies, there are even things to do on the internet that dont involve social media, or range bait content, watc some movies, read some books, read some non political (or maybe differently political would be better) like science news.

but besides that u stop engaging with content by just doing it, the algorithms for all social media and content websites just feed u waterver u click on/watch if u just ignore that stuff it will disappear from ur feeds, so just find other stuff u actually like to watch and specifically search for it and ignore “recommendations” as far as reddit goes dont go to r/all just look at specific communities that u like.

mls drink lightly colored shit water instead of coffee? that doesnt seem right. idk only aes country i know enough about to say is Cuba and there u WILL find a minimum of 1 italian style coffee maker in every home.

think about what u said for a minute, representation should not be an afterthought, media should show the diversity of the society that made it or atleast the society its trying to depict first and foremost because it should be something that should not even have to be thought about. “representation” should be the starting position, otherwise u are saying that straight white male is the default and anything other than that would be the producers of the media going out of their way to add representation.

just to be clear the “rumor” is that one guy on reddit went “they have a female lead, they are now woke, i bet shes trans”.
