Let?

Quite frankly you need to wake up and realize fellow Americans were too fucking lazy to vote Democrat for you. There's nothing Democrats can do now.

Perhaps try blaming Republicans and their voters too.

No she lost because people like you convince everyone that "both sides are the same." They are far from it and Dems are worth voting for because in our electoral system they're the better choice (and the only realistic one.) That and people don't do their CIVIC DUTY. It's not incumbent on anyone to get you to vote at all. Go vote 3rd party for all I care but at least go vote.

And big changes tend to happen after big events. If you're so hopeless then go be a Luigi. I would accept that. But I quite frankly am not looking at starting a civil war before we've at least tried to vote change in. And we clearly haven't tried given that people don't do it every single damn time.

And what big changes? I'd argue the ACA was one. Same with the IRA. You might not think so because it's not single payer wrapped up with a bow or that the IRA didn't immediately take us down from 1.5*C change but they are big. And they were done with VOTING. If you don't recall, healthcare was abhorrent compared to what we have with the ACA. And maybe if people went and voted Dem since that was passed we'd either have a true public option or be even closer to single payer. But they didn't so we're not. Funny that.

If you want to lose forever, keep doing what you’re doing.

Quite frankly, I vote left in primaries and Dem in general.

If YOU want to lose forever, keep your ass at home and your involvement contained to bitching online. Surely we'll get to a better place then. /s

It's tragic. But hey- where were the people voting in primaries to oust Liebermann? And Biden and company just passed the biggest climate bill ever. But sure- take your ball and go home. I'm sure things will magically get better by being lazy.

I think the turning point for being mature is when people realize that politics is not about big changes. Maybe they campaign on them but things don't happen like that. It takes a long time even if the answer is obvious. Thinking that all of a sudden the US will dismantle the healthcare and health insurance industries in ONE term of Congress when it underpins a ton of the economy (which includes people's jobs mind you- not just made up crap on the stockmarket) is foolish. It is a leviathan and will take time to eventually get to universal with insurance (ie. public and private) or single payer, etc.

And FWIW, it's easier for Republicans to get what they want because all they want to do is break things. Trying to build something takes time. But again, go off.

Yeah, that's kind of how it works.

Do you think the tea party got their fascist takeover in 2010? No, they worked years and years and kept pushing their party further to the right every single time until it finally happened.

Imagine that- you have to put in a couple hours of work at most every year or two for so many years to actually get what you want. Oh how absolutely awful that burden is. /s

Except if the dems had solid majorities for years they could be pushed left easily. Look at California. Not as left as Lemmy wants obviously but so much further left than the majority of the country.

Threema sells to businesses. It's a one time fee for personal.

Presumably because he/she is a person who wants to live somewhere without the hassle of having to own a house and that is impossible without landlords. And they are not the only one like that.

So your idea that all of it is parasitism has met someone, arguably you mean to help, who likes landlords. Because despite what some people think, a lot don't want to sign on the immense debt for a house nor maintain it. Landlords provide a service in that case and why is it your right to deny renters and landlords that service?

That doesn't mean there aren't parasitic landlords because there very much are. But a blanket statement that it's all bad seems foolish. Perhaps nuance is very much lost on people nowadays.

I almost think that's a pro. I don't understand how signal intends to pay for servers forever with voluntary donations. Though I'd be fine if they set up a mandatory annual fee.

Signal is far more polished IMO but both are great.

I get they wanted to avoid rematches but... Yeah.

Gotta represent.

Well that's great because you could still do that even if they included a jack.

Dude, I speak like four languages. It's a dumb name in my opinion.

Or #youdidntvotesoyoureresponsibletoo

Because like the op said- it's not clear how it's to be pronounced.

I've learned some Esperanto. Doesn't mean it's a great base for naming a project.

I think it's interesting but also still a terrible name. But I fear the time to change it is long gone.

People somehow think this stuff costs nothing I guess. The era of everything free on the internet has really made people blind to the fact this all costs money, one way or another.

You are a prime case for Biden derangement syndrome. Jfc

Sure it does. Same way you shame bad parts of society. Non voters deserve blame and shaming. Ignoring their abdication of civic duty just entrenches their bad behavior by excusing it.

Down voted for the truth.

Say it with me- fuck nonvoters.

Pssh. I mean, I voted. I did my part. Millions others though didn't.

I don't why lemmy people find it so hard to not blame the DNC and actually blame the people who either voted for fascism or did nothing to stop it. Maybe because some of them are the very same as the latter.
