Right? After he got shot at, he went on some spiel about how the rhetoric needs to be reigned in because the democrats saying he’s a threat to democracy is inciting violence. As usual, whatever suits Trump in the moment is the way forward!

Their values are aligned, theirs strategies are aligned, and so their efforts are aligned.
Ender’s Game was prescient text, regardless of Orson Scott Card’s personal beliefs.
Locke and Demosthenes are now armies of manipulative bots (but often real humans), shaping political discourse throughout the world. The Internet gave mind control powers to people with money, ambition, or both. We saw it with the Bernie Sanders and Trump movements in 2016 on Reddit, all too clearly for those who lived through an era where bullshit detection was a critical skill.
I was once fairly defeatist on this subject: the bad guys won, got Trump elected, and kicked off a new era of 80s conservatism that demonized progressive values like environmental conservation, freedom of choice in a number of matters, and equality.
But now, I’m starting to see young people stand up to their boomer relatives at Thanksgiving and bring facts and logic to social media discussions. And I have regained some hope that we will once again find a way to make the progressive “line go up“. Our society seems to swing like a pendulum between the right and left, over decades, and it feels like the Trump era was a swing too violent for most of us. It’s time to swing back.
Isn’t Asmongold one of those GamerGate dorks who hates “diversity in muh games”?
I’m gonna play this game. I don’t care about the negative GG/anti-Sweet Baby reviews.
This is why I have no plans to buy a PS6.
Operations on terrorist organizations. Geography was not taken from any of those countries. I was against the Iraq war and I think many Americans were, I wouldn’t try to defend it.
Now how is Putin invading Ukraine to expand Russia’s territory similar to those?
You Russian shills love to call everyone idiots because no one understands global conflict like you do, but do you really?
Yes, it did start in the 90s. With this: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russian–Ukrainian_Friendship_Treaty
Now who violated the treaty?
Who’s being intellectually dishonest in this thread again?
Russia is in the drivers seat here. All they have to do is stop attacking a sovereign nation and not fire nuclear missiles. It’s pretty simple.
lol, who has NATO invaded?
Did they alert authorities? Hope you’re doing better.
They are eating the pets of the people who live there!
It’s not a mystery how he plans to do it. He’ll demand Zelenskyy cede taken territory to Russia. If Zelenskyy doesn’t accept those terms, then the funding to Ukraine will stop.
Well there are some of those, but they run in parallel for the most part, which is very digestible. They have done a great job on this show.
I have a PS5, but Sony has begun releasing their most popular games on windows as well. I run it would be prudent to build a nice gaming PC, even if you shove it in a TV cabinet and connect a controller to it for couch gaming. If you’re patient like me, you not only get a better gaming experience, but a broader one.
Ok, and maybe the cop thinks he is trying to load a gun with the window up. Lots of what ifs.
No normal citizen would roll up their window on the police. Give me a fucking break.
Secretly my ass. Anyone with a brain can see the same thing happening on Facebook, popular podcasts, and YouTube as what we see Lemmy from HB and ml.
It already was like 10 years ago.
Jeff Epstein? The NY financier?
No shit, had seen only one weird trailer for this movie before it came out.
