That vehicle has already lasted longer, and been more useful, than any of the embarrassing new ones.

The single most important job of the DNC is keeping corporate candidates in office and keeping the money flowing. These fuckos have never been impartial. Anyone else still pissed at fucking Hoyer and the DCCC trying to get the progressive candidate to drop out of a primary?

From the above recording, Tellemann to Hoyer: “So before we, before we go any further on that, Crow is the favorite, in no small part Congressman Hoyer, because the DCCC not only put its finger on the scale, but started jumping on the scale very early on…I mean, it’s undemocratic to have a small elite select someone and then try to rig the primary against the other people running. And that is basically what’s been happening”

This was after the DNC had rat fucked Bernie, foisted Hillary on everyone, and lost to the serial failure, trump.

There was a Twilight Zone episode (A Matter of Minutes) that I remember as being pretty similar.

I remember being bummed that the bullet wasn’t just a little more to the side for effectiveness.

I’m sorry. I just don’t know what that means, or references. I looked and the only thing I could find was this: https://mindustry-unofficial.fandom.com/wiki/Tech_Tree which I don’t think is what you are referring.

First time I heard that word. I looked it up on urban dictionary, but I’m still not sure:

1. One who is completely and miserably addicted to porn but embraces and loves it.

or

2: a supporter of the London based football team, Arsenal FC

I would love to pin it on one thing, like social media. While I felt, feel, like that was a big variable in the downfall, I can’t underestimate the loss of the “American Dream”. I felt like phones should be banned. But some teachers felt like phones could be integrated into the curriculum. I could see both points, but honestly I just felt like society had passed me by. One of my master teachers, when I had been student teaching 25 years previously, said it was time to go when the students no longer entertained you. I felt like that was about right. I don’t think knowledge at your fingertips is a reason not to actually learn stuff.

I retired from the job 5 years ago. Your description rings true from my experience then (and was a big part of me retiring), and the colleagues I’ve stayed in touch with say it’s very noticeably worse now. I’m glad I got out when I did.

Math doesn’t check out, but point stands.

China is not without a butt load of economic problems already. We are their biggest trading partner. I agree we, the US, is fucked, but China is about to be as well. There will be no winners here.

300 of those 1000 will take up their pathetic guns and support the police.

A republican guy I used to work with was in huge support for ICE doing sweeps during trump’s first administration. I asked him why he was in support of another armed gov’t group going around cities asking for papers. He made it clear that they weren’t going to go after people like him or me. Even after I pointed out what he was saying, he was OK with it. He was educated too. Just fucking morally awful people.

I enjoy Lemmy for the most part, but this popular narrative that you continue to correctly point out gets so tiring on here. The self-ownership, or self-sabotage by these self-righteous, elementary level critical thinking skills having, non-voters is sickening. If I didn’t vote, I wouldn’t take it as some moral victory against a fucked up system, I’d just accept my apathy.

And most of the time he even fucks those decisions up.

I’ve let my friends know for many decades that if my wish comes true, and I am taken out by a meteor, I expect them to laugh their heads off and say cheers. I just wanted it to be a little micro-meteorite or something, but I’m OK with a large scale extinction size rock, I think.

Your filter list is very similar to mine. Makes a hell of a positive change.

Well friends, hey, at least they tried. A dozen written requests. I don’t know what more you expect them to do. Maybe a performative speech or rally will help.

Yet fuckhead McConnell said that trump needed to be tried in court, not in Congress via impeachment. If neither branch will step up, it’s carte blanche and the game is over.

It’s the same one that we have always been at war with.

I thought that was interesting. The title is wrong, but still worth a watch.
