I heard they put a German tourist in detention.
We need a different term. We should get a book of plans like Project 2025, but without the fascism.
Dems have to stop playing nice and get shit done. Be anti-oligarchy and other messages and you will win the working class.
Be careful with calling it "the Democrats' Project 2025." Project 2025 is a blueprint to destroy America. It's a political agenda in PDF form.
There's still a ton of left wing there, just that right wing and racist blue checkmarks are preferred in the algorithm.
Exactly the problem with companies and politics.
Oh. I'm new to owning a fediverse account.
Meaning companies like Amazon, whose CEO is on Trump's cabinet. They're the bigger fish to fry, its not so much about small local businesses who support Trump, its the ones who directly benefit the most out of it by having government control.
The unstable market will cause the rich to get richer and the poor to get poorer. It will put stress on a lot of companies that are in the between.
Support local (and Canadian/Europe/others), stop buying from companies who benefit the most from Trump. There's an entire billionaire cabinet to start with.
This is empty? Oh, it's an app.
This is quite chilling... A warning to heed, cops may begin to silence minorities and dissent.
Vance is a two faced motherfucker. He said Trump bad years ago but is now sucking up to him. Same with all of the rich people in the GOP. They'll say ANYTHING for some money and insider trading.
This is kinda like how Jeff Bezos turned WaPo into a libertarian news outlet.
I've wondered how Putin got into power for a bit now. I heard that he also used the power of oligarchies to seize control, and used rigging as well. Maybe I should make a post later?
Bigger turnout than Trump's rallies. Remember when he lied about having his rallies full and the camera man pans to the empty seats?
These news make me happy! Also have to consider the tariffs at play.
Everything happens for a calculated reason... most of the time. Or maybe they're playing it off as intentional.
Official 50501 Lemmy instance! 50501.chat
A new official instance dedicated to the 50501 movement was created recently and is in the works. It has some brainstorming communities, a mirror of r/50501, and all 50 states have a community assigned to them. They are also looking for state organizers for their Lemmy state communities! Come join us!
Got permission from mods to post.
They most likely threw out ballots. iirc, some people reported having voted yet find out that their ballot wasn't counted for whatever reason. This is why they want want to take control of the postal office, because many Americans use mail in ballots. Remember, some mailboxes were even burnt.
"Don't Be A Sucker" An anti-fascist propaganda film produced by the US Army Signal Corps in 1943, which describes how Hitler gained power through hate, which has become relevant in present times.
How Hitler used hate to gain power and that its not worth it to fall for hate. Worth a watch, you can even do a movie night on it maybe, its scary.

Can't create a comment on the recent poll, so I will make a post.
Response to https://50501.chat/post/12085
I'd say that we should not mirror Reddit comments if our comments will not be mirrored to the subreddit. It will not allow for Lemmy users to give their thoughts on the sub's posts because it would be hard to find Lemmy comments. But afaik, the mirror only saves posts for 15 to 30 days? With that restriction, it might be slightly pointless to not mirror comments.
I would like to be able to cooperate with the people on Reddit, but it might not be a good idea to mirror Lemmy posts/comments either because Reddit might crack down on it. Hoping for screencaps though.
If you wanted to see comments from Reddit, you could go to Reddit directly or use a privacy front-end like Redlib. (If you are gonna use that, I'd recommend the LibRedirect add-on!)
Thank you for creating a Lemmy instance!
Thank you for this! I've been wanting to contribute to the movement, but Reddit won't let me post with a VPN. :<
Could you put the announcement post back up at Reddit? I don't think many people noticed it, I'd like the Lemmy instance linked in the fiftyfifty.one website too.
