We didn’t really build any of it. It was all designed by a bunch of old white slave owners over 200 years ago. What we can do now is keep things from getting worse and try to make steady progress along the way. Voting isn’t everything, but it’s still important.

YouTube and Instagram already have identical features. Most US creators who post on Tik Tok also use those platforms already

Abortion is already codified in some states that are under Democratic control. But Biden is President of the US, not of each individual state. He doesn’t have the power to write or enforce state law. His Department of Justice is challenging some state laws in court. It is not codified at a federal level because Democrats do not have enough votes in the Senate or House to do that. Packing SCOTUS also would require Senate approval.

And I didn’t gaslight anybody or say who to vote for. I only asked how Biden contributes to a fascist America and pointed out that the extremism in this country resulted from Trump’s presidency. The damage that Trump did to this country will take generations to fix and Biden doesn’t have the power to fix everything on his own.

How is Biden oppressing those groups? We are in this position (bans on healthcare, etc.) because Trump’s three SCOTUS picks overturned Roe v Wade and opened the door for all the insane fascist shit going on right now in the Republican controlled states. A majority of people live in Democratic controlled states that have protections for these groups. Things could get so much worse if Trump is given any more power. His first Presidency already set half of the states in the country back over 50 years in terms of women’s rights. He’s also promised to enforce the Comstock Act which would effectively ban abortion nationwide by preventing medical supplies used for abortion related healthcare to be sent in the mail. Not only that but hate crime rates have also gone up since Trump’s first Presidency enabled white supremacists to express their views more openly.

Definitely look into Next DNS. There are also some Safari extensions that can block ads.

George Lucas has said that it was the Vietnam War that inspired the conflict in Star Wars, with the Empire representing the US, but also the rebels could represent the US against the British Empire from the Revolutionary War.

If all the competition has a useful feature and FireFox doesn’t that will only keep users away from FireFox. The unfortunate reality of today’s world is that people have low attention spans and want an AI to spoon feed them whatever garbage they want.

And what will that accomplish? The Kim family are horrible leaders, but this comment is unhinged. Torture will not undo anything they’ve done.

That’s not really how it works. It would only make them look stupid if they did that, and increase the risk of being voted out in the next election. Because of the filibuster, legislation generally needs 60 votes in the Senate before it goes to the president. Democrats have 51 seats, with two frequent defectors. Imagine if Biden’s record going into 2024 is that he vetoed every single piece of legislation.

Democrats have a slim majority in the senate, which is not enough to get whatever they want done without compromising, especially considering that two senators are not as left wing as the rest of the party.

As far as war and military spending goes, I agree that the party could do better.

What?

The point is to influence the election next year, not to make money

As a trans person, I feel far safer on Lemmy and mastodon than I ever did on any other social media.

They haven’t been updated in a while. Luckily there is a fork of openboard that is being updated and works quite well: https://github.com/Helium314/openboard You can easily install and update it with Obtainium.

I might replace Microsoft with Linux in Windows 12

Been happening to me for a while. Someone on Grindr has been messaging me the same boring selfies of himself from different accounts almost every day for the past year and a half.

There has been a lot of debate over the last ~200 years of history of socialism. Not everyone is in agreement on everything.

Probably so it can still support FireFox sync.

You couldn’t even pay me to use Twitter

They are still against gay marriage
