  • I haven't seen this much angsty preteen energy in a comment since being on Reddit. Do your parents know you're on Lemmy?

  • I also make up things about people.

    I heard about your coma and recent miraculous recovery after being kicked in the head while fucking a sheep. My sympathy goes out to your family and I wish ewe well.

  • I would like to go to there

  • I still can't believe how normalized not repairing your own things became in just a period of decades. My grandparents, now deceased, were born in the thirties. Repairing things is just what you did all the way up until their fifth decade, when it started to change. Even they noticed how they just went along with it over time, since technology got past what two former farm kids who grew up without electricity could easily understand.

  • They just don't care. They know the administration is going to back them, so they say anything that isn't totally self-incriminating. I expect they'll eventually stop caring about that too.

  • In the article, the minority party is described giving up a strong bargaining lever in exchange for vague promises with no guarantee of follow through. Again.

    Controlled opposition. The rest of the world sees it. Why not Americans?

  • Again to point out for the rest: this is a textbook troll. It's too perfect a mix of being demonstrably incorrect with being aggressively overconfident. It's 100% ragebait, and the odds of someone truly being this ignorant while also being so furiously certain are low. Then ending with an insult? It's too on the nose.

    I'm not suggesting people don't interact. I simply suggest we mock them for their poor trolling skills.

  • They just cycled a key figure out of public view. This is PR strategy - when criticism against a particular organization or any of its key figure(s) reaches a certain point, replace some key figures.

    Tr;dr: the frogs in the pot all cheer as the cook is replaced and their replacement turns down the hob a touch.

    People tend to see key figures as representative of entire organizations, e.g., there are so many people who see removing Trump as being a solution despite him being a clear symptom of the problem. Letting some take a fall is a PR win grab bag: many people interpret the "punishment" of a few people as being applied to the whole organization and it suggests reform and atonement without actually changing anything substantial. Then the new figures start and optionally say they're changing strategies for future improvement - "it'll work but it takes time, just trust me bro."

    As long as this round of musical chairs tells a story that enough critics want to hear, enough mounting critical pressure is reduced for the cycle to continue a bit longer.

  • Tl;dr: Democrats are controlled opposition.

    When they do have any leverage, they find plenty of reasons not to use it. The Republican party has put on a decades-long master class on being obstructionist little twats, yet most Democrats fail to learn and the few that have often seem more like pressure release valves than actual agents of change.

  • Because he is unhinged. I'm not on Lemmy a lot, less than an hour per day on average. I don't seek out Bloomcole content, just bump into it incidentally, but usually read all of it when I do because it's entertaining. I use Voyager, which I have set to track cumulative vote scores by user.

    He's at -177 as of today. The next lowest person is -23.

    He's insane, but like a train wreck, I find myself unable to look away.

  • I'm certain Stephen Miller has already assumed other wifely duties for Trump, so this wouldn't be a stretch.
