    Hope you like socialism

  • Not sure what you're talking about. Since the summer it's just been post about Dems and how Republicans are weirdos. Honestly, the socialist presence on Lemmy is lacking.

  • Members who support Trump will never hear this story so it won't change their mind.

  • Oh yeah. I forget sometimes that that was the most expensive shitpost of all time.

  • It's painfully obvious lemmy is overrun with astroturf. Kamala spam has been oppressive and it's just cringe most of the time. I refuse to believe that most of the real users here are that cringe. Also, I support Kamala.

  • Americans' inflation-adjusted incomes rebounded to pre-pandemic levels last year

    Jump

  • This was for 2023 and the job market was hot that year. If you switched jobs you probably got a double digit pay rise, and many people were doing it. That's what drove the number.

    However, the job market is kinda crashing right now in 2024. So I don't think it's a trend that will continue.

  • They were betting he'd win and just blatant cronyism and corruption would ensue.

  • Kamala Harris to propose up to $50,000 tax deduction for new small businesses

    Jump

  • We don't need more small businesses. We need less corporations, less ultra wealthy and more healthy middle class. This does not solve anything and a one time tax deduction doesn't make small businesses sustainable when they have to compete against corpos.

  • 'Neoliberal capitalism' has contributed to the rise of fascism, says Nobel laureate

    Jump

  • The reason capitalism leads to fascism is that inevitably capitalism will lead to untenable inequality. Injustice will be too great to ignore between the rich and the rest. This will lead to populism.

    There are two forms of populism. One will seek to rectify the imbalances caused by capitalism. The other will seek to divert blame to minorities. If there were less blacks, immigrants, gays, Jews, etc. etc. then our society would not be in decay. One is much more useful to the Capitalist and so it will ultimately prevail. The capitalist will devote all resources to crushing the leftist populism up to and including directly funding fascism.

  • The problem with free markets is they are incredibly unstable and create booms and busts and people don't like this so we get the worst of all worlds which is unfettered capitalism and no competition or failure weeding out poorly managed companies. Maybe free markets are just a shitty ideal?
