    You are correct, but everyone is too afraid to work together to find a better candidate/ new party. We no longer can organize ourselves. We can only be organized by institutions apparently. I’d love to be proven wrong on this but watch how much resistance you get. Just trying to suggest that maybe we could do better. ʕ•ᴥ•ʔ



  • As a younger millennial it surprises me how little others seem to get the generation divide here. Personal computers and keyboards were very common for millennials to grow up with in the house, but I think more and more people these days don’t use desktops or laptops that often most people stick with tablets and smartphones. Gen z probably doesn’t have the same keyboard skills as millennials because of that, but on average they are definitely better with tech than we are. Their typing skills are just on phone keyboards lol. Just my 2 cents



  • I think he’s just a hypocrite who will say anything and contradict it when it’s better for him.

    Have you ever seen his trans daughter who he disowned for being trans talk about him? He’s not a good dude. For years when I first heard of him I was tricked too. Look into him some more man. He’s a piece of shit.

    Here’s some reasons:

    Taking credit for other people 's work. I don’t think he actually founded any of the companies he owns besides the boring company. That hasn’t done anything right? Lol

    Having emotional temper tantrums where he tries to ruin people’s lives, for example that diver he called a pedophile for no reason.

    Again his hypocrisy around his political beliefs. For example how he champions “Free speech” but also will censor words like ‘cis’. It’s clear to me and many others that “free speech” to Elon just means people are free to say what Elon wants.







  • I use temu too. I see literally the same products on Amazon and temu regularly. Temu is much cheaper but obviously shipping is longer. But yeah there is alot of overlap. I think it’s too important to remember a lot of the stuff they get sold on Amazon is from small third party sellers who buy cheap goods from China from places like timu or Alibaba or wherever and then warehouse and resell them on Amazon for a huge markup.

    I get where y’all are coming from temu does horrible s*** I guess the reason I use it is the same as the other guy said thr price hike in thr us and I don’t think the merchants over here are ethical either. I’m pretty used to being surveilled digitally at this point 🤷





  • On the one hand I’ve been thinking about leaving the country. I really don’t think Canada is a safe move. Especially because it’s the first thought for so many left wing Americans and it’s so close. I also don’t think it’s inconceivable that a more dictitorual Trump ends up invading Canada…I’ve been thinking about trying to live in Vietnam myself… I figure if they can keep the USA out then international politics isn’t something id have to worry about to much there. They’re actual leftists and the money I have here should stretch even farther there to help the transition. I’ve also tried to talk a few friends into coming along with me if it goes bad we’ll see how that works I’m going to try to get 15ish friends to agree hopefully at least a few will follow through.

    The other side of my mind thinks that’s extreme and doesn’t want to leave. That side does think that getting some rice and beans one of those giant rechargeable batteries with solar panels is a good idea though.

    Most student loans have not been canceled claiming that student loans have been canceled. It’s just ingenuous and again it’s the whole fake Biden is killing it narrative. Be honest.

    Non-Competes are still in effect that ruling does not go into effect until September at the earliest and it is subject to many Court challenges before it will probably not happen. Regardless, it has not happened yet.

    You say the problem is being worked on in these things take time for multiple things. In other words, Biden has not done anything on these fronts. You cannot give Biden credit for something that he has not done lol.

    This is what I mean. Biden is milk toast at best. He’s really just slowing our rate of decline more than he is actually doing a good job. The insistence that he is killing it or doing a good job when he is not and people are suffering is a bad strategy politically.

    This giant list of things that turns out to be bs is the kind of thing making people more disillusioned. Stuff like this lowers voter turnout. Democrats lose when voter turnout is low. Do you see where this gets bad?
