This is great stuff, thanks!
I’m mostly half-serious.
This is great stuff, thanks!
Thanks a lot for the suggestions!
This is what I don’t get. Everyone here had the sentiment of “we will vote for anyone who is not Donald Trump”. But then they balked at the suggestion that Biden should drop out and insisted that no one could replace him.
Now that Biden has been replaced… they’re saying Biden being replaced was a low percentage gamble. Something here doesn’t add up.
This comment alone is making me interested in Greek mythology. I’d like to know more. Any reading suggestions toward that end?

Water? You mean that stuff that goes in toilets?
After years of this sentiment being passed around online it’s clear that shit isn’t going to happen until we have a military draft/Vietnam War level incident. The pot is boiling too slowly for most of us to jump out. And even if we do try to organize a strike or civil disobedience, the government has gotten good at assasinating leaders that threaten the system.
I have set up emudeck. Works for nes, snes, gba, ps1, Wii, and ps2 without issue. It’s only when I tried Wii U and ps3 that I ran into into problems. I do know it’s possible, but I got tired of tweaking
I’ve been trying to get Wii U to work on Steamdeck. I’m only intermediately tech savvy, so this gives me motivation to give it another go.
Agreed, Facebook is terrible. But I’d say that Lemmy and Reddit are on a par (as regards users and mods). Perhaps Lemmy’s major upside is the decentralized structure, but then you lose out on the niche content that Reddit offers.
Priorities lmao
It needs to be said. If we can’t acknowledge how contradicting narratives were fed to us within the same month, then it shows an alarming lack of cognitive dissonance on our part.
There are people on Lemmy who argued that Biden is not our best bet against Trump; they were told that Biden was the best that the party can do and that there was not enough time to replace Biden. Now, we’re all supposed to move on like that didn’t just happen.
That said, I am pleasantly surprised to see the community admitting the mistake. I assumed this post would be downvoted heavily but the post felt necessary for the reasons above.
In contrast, people that are right on big, important issues I try to pay more attention to
Jon Stewart comes to mind
This is literally not a meme
Does anyone have this meme template?
This is a completely disingenuous response that I keep hearing. Yes, it being an election year intensifies the problem. But Lemmy’s intolerance to criticism of anything left-wing pre-dates 2024. Go back a year ago and look at the posts on politicalmemes@lemmy.world . Same shit different day.
The fact that everyone is paying attention to politics right now actually makes it a great time to call the democrats on their shit in the hopes that they will at least promise to make more foundational changes. But that’s not going to happen: we continue to settle for the status quo.
Oh you have a micropenis? Prove it.
