You are likely scanning my profile and history because I said something in a tone that made you feel funny or angry. This is called being reactionary. You can overcome it.

  • The real despair to feel here is about the massive sites like twitter and reddit, and how many people are doing this same act with even more effort, actual funding, actual headquarters and organized planning to manufacture conversations and debates, every single day, around the clock.

    Lemmy isn’t probably going to push any needles in either direction, but the fact that we can see them even here, shows just how widespread the infection really is, and there are millions of people reading this kind of chaos and just rolling their eyes and deciding to not get involved, to not have an opinion, to let whatever happens, happen.


  • Honestly, if they had their time and power as long as they want it, they will go after interracial marriage after destroying gay marriage.

    The gay marriage repeal would cause a lot of uproar but be quickly overshadowed by other chaotic policies and endeavors, and then we will be left with more problems, more people wondering what to do about their new statuses, maybe they will implement some new kind of federally recognized “partnership” so they don’t have to face lawsuits from every state, and then work later to actually abolish that as well, then the media cycle will move on and we all get used to a new, worse normal.

    Then next they say “We have intelligence that foreign agents and terrorists are using marriage to infiltrate the country, so we are going to need every interracial married couple to register in a database so ICE can review the legal status of your marriage…” and the song goes on.

    But I don’t think they can pull all this off. They want to, Miller self-pleasures himself every night imagining the despair and anger he would cause, but they are radically overreaching, the pushback against ICE broadly is only going to escalate and they don’t have nearly enough resources to do the entire Project 2025 handbook unless they just openly dissolve the government and seize assets but at that point the military would have to step in, because they are wisely sworn to the constitution and not a person. And the biggest reason they likely won’t get that far is the USA is fucking huge.

    50 states is hard as fuck to manage, that’s why we have them, so we can have every state manage its own voting, it’s own tax contributions, it’s own delegation of representatives, etc. They are going to get creamed in mid-terms and Trump will die before his term is up and they won’t be able to hold the pieces together because MAGA is their political capital and they have no CLUE how to hold onto them, like sand through their fingers, it will all slip away rapidly.


  • Pam Bondi comes out on stage: “We have credible intelligence that antifa and radical muslims and trans terrorists are recruiting autistic people for their terror campagnes as they burn down more American cities. No, you can’t see the intel. Trust us bro.”

    A hyperbolic version of potential events, yes, but they’ve gotten to this point already by edging the needle across the lines ever-so-slowly, so they will find a way to get people adapted slowly to the idea of seeing everyone who isn’t a white, straight, neurotypical christian male as a threat to everything we hold dear.





  • AIPAC is reportedly about to pour tens of millions into this year’s mid-terms in the US to influence elections to preserving the current status-quo, including Democrats who have held their seats for like, the last three thousand years.

    We have to flush every incumbent and start our government over. Please get out there and register and pour out the rotten contents of this old party of worthless liches and refill with new contents. It’s just a start. We have a vast amount of work to do, and you need to be focused on your local community leadership, those are the bricks that hold up the entire stupid tower of idiocy and evil we have now.




  • The damage done to this country by the right is incalculable and likely irreversible.

    When the internet started empowering the dumbest idiots who don’t understand the world to find and support each other, we lost.

    The human brain is not naturally a problem-solving tool of logic and reasoning, it has to be trained to use logic and reason, and in a world of comfort and ease like in the USA broadly, people had no incentive to learn more and be smarter other than social pressure, and that also dissolved as people found each other online and removed the pressure to step up their intellect to be accepted in broader society.

    This has made a deep, slippery well of pseudo-science and naturalism and healing oils and magic water and crystals, which because of placebo effects and social influence, feel like they do more for people in their daily lives than mysterious terms like “mRNA” that defy all understanding or capability for people of limited intelligence to discuss with their coworkers around the lunch table.
