News@lemmy.world•House Minority Leader Jeffries, NJ Sen. Booker begin sit-in protest on Capitol steps
0·1 year agoFair, I can’t argue that’s a good lens to view this through. I can only hope these people’s message actually get some people to wake up.
But that pessimism didn’t just appear. There’s a reason, and I’m my opinion a good one, for it. I think we’re long overdue for a political overhaul. Though I’m probably just preaching to the choir.

0·1 year agoIf left means progressive and Democrats are left why did Biden not close down Trump’s concentration camps and instead used them twice as much.
Why did Biden sell more protected land than any other president?
Approve more drilling for fraking than any other?
Continue a genocide?
Like really come on. There’s is the fascist party and the new Republican party. Get a grip, there is no progressive party in the US.

News@lemmy.world•Trump staff puts immigrants' mug shots on White House lawn
0·1 year agoNot even mug shots really. Just close ups of people who aren’t white.
No names, no location, no information. Just “Murder” and a photo. It’s less than a mug shot.

0·1 year agoYou can’t convince blue maga that they’re blue maga They’ll keep blindly voting for their team while ignoring what they actually do.
Never mind that Biden kept Trump’s deportation concentration camps open.
Never mind Biden used them twice as much as Trump throughout his time as president.
Never mind that more protected land was sold for fraking by Biden than any other president to date.
Or that Biden approved more off shore drilling than any other president.
Or that it’s thanks to Biden that student loans aren’t forgiven with bankruptcy.
Blue no matter who, Red bad. There is no other way. None.

0·1 year agoHey he specifically broke the record for longest filibuster when it didn’t matter directly after voting yes to the budget proposal. How is that performative?!?! /S
Could have done it a week earlier and it be an actual filibuster instead of some symbolic bs.

0·1 year agoOr they’re people that actually want change and a better life for us all. And that’s not coming via either current party in the US.

0·1 year agoI think expecting Democratic Senators to vote no on things like the Laken Riley Act or Democratic Judges to not sign bogus warrants to arrest Gaza protesters should be a bare minimum expectation.
Them not even being able to do that " keeps people down on the Democrats."
My understanding of the event:
- 4chan jokes they should pretend the okay hand sign is a white supremacist dog whistle to trigger libs.
- They do and it works.
- Online shitters who’s whole personality is “triggering sjw’s” pick up on this and perpetuate the joke to continue to trigger people.
Basically people getting mad at a joke caused it to become a real thing to some degree. While not a supremacist symbol it was heavily used by them for a time.
So we can expect 5 fallout 3 remasters around 2040

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Why hasn't congress passed a law saying that you can only deport people *back to their own country*?
0·1 year agoI agree, but courts have been partisan for a while. See judge Cannon’s handling of Trumps documents case and the supreme Courts handling of his freaking insurrection.
I understand the way things are supposed to be. But it’s not the way they are. Courts are going to have to decide which side of history they are on.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Why hasn't congress passed a law saying that you can only deport people *back to their own country*?
0·1 year agoFascists are good at using the fact that their opponents need to uphold the law against them.
Your comment is correct as much as I hate it. But to the quoted portion, their opponents don’t need to. They choose to. And it drives me insane that they think that we can operate within the system the fascists are actively ignoring to fix this. The “normal way” things are done is gone, it’s time to stand firm and take action.

Memes@lemmy.ml•"If you didn't want fascism you should have voted!"
0·1 year agoActually no, details don’t matter! Women’s suffrage ran on the idea they deserved the right to vote. They didn’t start out demanding a constitutional amendment specifically and immediately 😀. The civil rights movement didn’t detail how to repeal Jim Crow laws and last out step by step how to integrate the black community . Please read a book, educate yourself on how change occurs instead of constantly saying it can’t happen and doing your best to make it so (by doing nothing).
Edit: also, until you get the least bit of education, I can’t engage with you any further. Sorry!

Memes@lemmy.ml•"If you didn't want fascism you should have voted!"
0·1 year agoSure! Continue to get active in our communities, create support networks, and once you get enough supporters strike until change is implemented. That’s just a non-violent option too.
If you’d like to learn more about things being “impossible” and still changing, maybe read a history book! Civil rights, women’s suffrage, and the rise of the AFL are great starting points.

Technology@lemmy.world•AI Energy Demand Can Keep Fossil Fuels Alive, Tech Backers Promise World’s Two Biggest Oil ProducersEnglish
0·1 year agoMy half thought conspiracy: The actual hope is to get people so reliant on AI that the fee is secondary.
You’re already staying to see this in news articles where, "Chat gpt says Trump’s physical not possible," or that “gork calls elon top misinformation spreader.”
Why are news outlets reporting on what some hallucinating AI says? To legitimize it. As people use it more they’ll become more reliant on it. It’ll be no different than, "just Google it "
But they aren’t only going to do this to make a profit. It’s more than that. It’s about controlling the flow of information. Once people are reliant right on it they’ll adjust algorithms and black list information that doesn’t benefit them.
Legitimately AI is trying to position itself to control information and by extension the realities of its users. And that is priceless.

0·1 year agoMy example, however, is specifically something that is “not possible,” that is occurring in the very system that you are insisting is “not possible” to change.

Stop pretending we have to work within the system as if the system works for us.



They’ll blindly vote for the blue one and do this when you call them out for it.
I’m just going to call them blue caps now
