I publicly humiliate them until they keep their bullshit bottled up. I’m ready and eager to punch any Nazi with the balls to stick to their guns in person

I don’t know what the fuck it is you do, but I’m guessing it’s undermining everything you claim to stand for

Well… You know, practice. If your first, second, or third shot is slow, you get got

Not to say you aren’t practicing, just a friendly reminder

Jesus Christ…I’ll put in the time to make leftists better at messaging, but at best you’ll hop onto the bandwagon of someone who knows what’s going on

Well I hope you find someone wiser to follow while it matters. Otherwise, have fun sniffing your own farts or whatever

Yeah… No they fucking can’t. And a lot of people (with guns) know that, and feel very strongly about that fact

What are you on about? That is so incredibly far from anything I said

Being on Twitter doesn’t make you a Nazi. That’s a wild fucking take

Pick a leftist voice, or basically anyone who does public messaging. Look at their socials - Twitter is on there.

Why? Because the largest audience is still there! And yeah, the platform is controlled by a Nazi, and it boosts Nazis. It’s a cesspool. People should migrate, to mastodon preferably. But they haven’t, because it’s a process that takes time and work

But labeling everyone still on Twitter a Nazi, or even a Musk supporter, is just putting your fingers in your ears and declaring the Nazis have won already

Lol. I accept that the Nazis exist, and that they’ve taken over mainstream social media

I also don’t use mainstream social media and I strongly encourage others not to. And I also face reality. People value their dooms scrolling too much to listen, only one person in my life has made a change, everyone else shrugs and says that’s where their friends are

Any platform that allows Nazi speech is a Nazi platform, but not everyone on a Nazi platform is a Nazi. Social media grows and shrinks according to the network effect… Twitter will only completely die once another micro blogging platform becomes the default. We’ve seen it play out over and over

You have to accept reality as it is and meet people where they are. Applying your own morals to others does nothing but make you feel superior in your own little bubble

Uh… No. They don’t like war here, they love a war on the other side of the planet, where either we’re punching down on a county they don’t do much with or backing another country

If that was true, why is there constant news about him getting butthurt from critical tweets and using his authority to suppress them?

There’s a lot of people still on Twitter for a simple reason that has nothing to do with Musk… Getting a population to relocate is hard. That’s where they were before the takeover, that’s where all types of public figures have to be to reach followers, and so that’s where people go to interact with them

It’s going to be a slow decline as alternatives slowly grow to critical mass, and eventually the dead platform will no longer be the place with the biggest reach to most intended audiences

I used Twitter for all of a day, but you have to be real with it

It’s an ocean with a whole lot of toxic spills. The whole thing is polluted, but some of it is nearly clean while others are basically tar.

There’s too many people doing too many things on that platform to condemn them all… We need to get most of them somewhere safer, but that’s where they are right now

Quickly? Not from my perspective.

It’s just that suddenly the curtain was ripped away. We all knew this was the trend, it was just never so direct or blatant

It absolutely is… Basically anything spread to advance a cause or change behavior is technically propaganda. Generally, we use the term just when it’s done by or on behalf of a government, and especially when it’s pushing disinformation, but it’s all propoganda

The purpose of this is to push support, or at least normalization of, harsh treatment of Mexicans in the US or on the border. It’s also an intimidation and humiliation tactic

No matter how you slice it, this is blatant propaganda

What do I have to do to get theme music?

It predicts that Tesla could save money by padding the numbers, and does a little fraud automagically

The students are the ones winning and having their status restored

You could just download it, no need to actually print the thing for no reason

I would buy a larger drive to do that though, just to say I did

Judging by how the people in power seem to like badly implementing ideas from cautionary sci-fi books, here’s my guess:

They’re probably using a point system. If you have an immigration hearing, a million points. If they find your name on a visa (not even necessarily you), that’s 20 points. If they find your name on an arrest record, that’s 10 points. If they find your name on any immigration court records, that’s 10 points

Then they sort the list, send ICE after people with the highest scores, and are slowly emailing their way down the list to anyone with like 50 points or more

Because it’s like a way to pay to maximize your time off

Staycations are way more relaxing, but are generally forgettable - a week can go by before you know it when you’re just at home

A week in a different place where you cram in as many activities and experiences in as possible creates far more memories, so it feels longer

It’s like retail therapy - a way to soothe that voice in the back of your head asking “is it really worth it to sell my life away like this?”

Yes, well have a next election. Not because our democracy is that strong, but because trump and Co are that weak

They will try to rig our next election, no doubt. I’m just confident theyll lose so bad there’s no rigging it

I thought the second one was weak, the third one was ok though

The new one is just the first one redone… The parallels were so forced though so hard the message was drowned out

The writing is great, it’s where they meet Hollywood that the films start to flag. I mean, even from the premise - the machines using us as batteries is stupid, the original idea of them using us as processors is way better

How is the affordable care act a more progressive system?

I’m saying that there are two positive aspects, but it directly caused healthcare costs to skyrocket and dropped the quality of healthcare massively. Standards of care are the reason why there’s twice as much time spent on paperwork than with patients, and it gave insurance companies so much more power over the entire process

When I say it’s meant to block universal healthcare, I don’t mean it was a compromise between where we were and universal healthcare - it was wrapped up in a package of “this will fix healthcare using the free market”, but it’s a much worse system

As far as gay marriage, I’m sure there was plenty to it behind the scenes… But I also remember states passing it left and right beforehand - and here it is under threat again

My point with all of this is that these issues are the ratchet in action - they’re such toothless solutions that the issue remains a key problem
