  • Dansup has had multiple public bullshit tirades, it seems. He went ballistic about a developer recently who did something for Pixelfed, and ranted endlessly in the most egotistical fashion.

    It sucks. Pixelfed is a nice addition to the fediverse, but that guy is a dick.

  • I loved my iPhone 5 more than any other device I've owned. Perfect size.

  • Ah! Yeah, that's true

  • Nah, they're authoritarian genocide deniers.

    The opposite of woke.

  • we supported a known liar and are now shocked that he lied to us

  • "We would call it a coup, but we're afraid."

    Can any of these people do anything? It's insane. There's a lot of talk, but no one is stopping anything, or (seemingly) trying.

    There's only so much that words can do.

  • Thank you, kind citizen of Lemmy. I needed that. Too much depressing news lately.

  • Americans need to start taking responsibility for their own actions or inaction instead of constantly looking for someone else to blame.

    Totally agree. I'm not sure when Americans became so complacent that they'd rather quietly observe than, say, protest.

    Looking back on the Civil Rights movement, for example, Americans did what was necessary and right. Same goes for protesting the Vietnam War. Even as recent as BLM protests. It just seems oddly quiet to me lately.

  • There is so much irony in this. I can't.

  • Dumb question, but does the page source show where the video is contained?

  • I meant democratic leadership, not citizens.

    Stand down, captain!

  • Exactly. They blatantly sabotage Bernie Sanders, preventing arguably the last sane politician available.

    More than that, Democrats have gradually shifted right over time, so what is considered "liberal" these days is actually closer to older generations of Republicans prior to Reagan.

    I don't think there's a true left-leaning party in America anymore.

  • Considering the near-complete silence from almost all democrats, I'm beginning to believe that this is something that America was already leaning into anyway, and that Trump is a nice patsy to blame it on.

    How they (the entirety of the government) can sit back idly — throwing out occasional soundbites for good measure — and allow this to happen makes me feel defeated.

    Freedom and liberty were the just the rose that held the thorns of fascism.

    Edit: I feel like I should add that I am in no way trying to alleviate Trump from any guilt that he deserves. Calling him a patsy just seems like I'm letting him off. I'm certainly not. The guy is a total piece of trash. 

  • If he ceased to exist, he'd stop leaking.

  • This seems like a Doomsday Clock for billionaires. I'm okay with this.
