The apps don’t actually help disabled people, they just exploit and rip them off.

It is low-class and to be a good president, you do in fact have to be better than that.

Rejecting McDonald’s isn’t elitist, it’s intelligent. It’s overpriced disgusting garbage. The only way to eat it affordably is through the app which is what they use to exploit low-class people and the extreme poor – two completely separate groups. Donald Trump is not one of the extreme poor so guess which group he’s actually in (spoiler: it’s the low-class one).

Well, you could organize with your communities to force your county to switch to green power instead of running coal plants non-stop.

Being politically active is one of the best things you as an individual could do.

They’re a proto-government really.

All governments do horrific things because all a government is is the most powerful organized violent group in an area. That’s all government ever has been.

Shameful. Absolutely shameful.

You’re probably not wrong

I hope they’re wise enough to beam the power down close to the wifi frequency so it can’t, in fact, be used as a James Bond superweapon. But evil people could in principle build their own arrays and antennae up there to have just that.

I will leave and block any instance that federates with Meta, including this one, and go start my own instance, and only federate with others that also block it if I have to. Don’t you dare allow their corporate garbage into our space 😠

Honestly, the more moderate Republicans that turn away from the extremists and condemn them, the better off the U.S. will be. They’re the only ones that can challenge the extremists’ hold on power, being on the inside, and unless they’re encouraged to and supported when they do, the extremists will fester unchecked and we face the very real possibility of a genocide attempt in this country if they’re allowed to just do that.

But yeah, it really is foolish for any minority to think the right wing has anything to offer them at this point, whether they be LGBTQ+, a marginalized ethnic group, or what-have-you.

If you’re going to be that arrogant, why even bother? You already know what’s best for all of us, and you’ll use talking point after talking point and refuse to concede or acknowledge any good point we make to bully us into submitting to your opinion. Nah, we’re good. I say no.

Facts

What shootings? I haven’t heard of any political murders yet

Sure, why not.

I’ve moderated several subs back on Reddit, and I run the Real LGBTQ community here, so I know the score.

So what about the people who don’t want to waste their lives trying to squeeze blood from a stone and who want a better way? Why are they not allowed to say no?

Climate collapse will guarantee that land is worth nothing.

That’s a very alarming sign. Polarization of that caliber means we’re on a hard Stage 6 on the Ten Stages of Genocide, and everything that follows it is… bad. Very, very bad. You do not want to see what happens at Stage 7 and beyond.

It’s not actually a true representation of the community’s opinion of you though. And that’s kind of the problem. People and companies can and will rig those votes in their favor, distorting important political debates and wreaking all kinds of havoc.
