“You are not worse for your association with the world, but it is better for its association with you.”

I wish them luck as an American. Our government is now compromised by fascists.

…we will fight them when push comes to shove, but I do not not know if we will win.

It’s a laptop you can fit on your pocket. I think it’s a great idea, if it’s effective enough. Knowing this company, it isn’t… So I’ll wait for Samsung.

Oh man, this is a cool phone, but I’m not touching potential Chinese surveillance equipment.

The war against America will be fought by poor American SOB’s like myself before it reaches our allies.

We’re all hoping it doesn’t come to that, but the divisive nature of our current political climate is unprecedented… We’re all a day away from never speaking to certain family members again. It’s just fucking nuts what’s going on.

People like to compare us to Nazi Germany, but it’s nothing like that. Well, except Elon Musk. He’s larping as a Nazi pretty openly right now, compete with Seig Heils. That’s part of their plan to divide and conquer. Only I really think it’ll follow our old motto, and we will simply all fall.

I lived in San Diego through the entire first term of Trump. It was always bullshit when he railed on our neighbors.

“if you didn’t want to get raped, then why did you dress so provocatively?”

This is only kind of hyperbole, since Trump was actually convicted of raping a woman…

Not a fan of the Uyghurs, eh?

Trump is only capable of quid pro quos when it comes to… Well… Everything he does, I guess. He has no friends, and no allies… Only people he takes from, and in return they get something that was never his to begin with.

Or you can buy it for $30, but no you can’t have a digital copy. And if, in the future, the service folds, then you can no longer watch it.

That’s disgusting… Unless it’s Parmesan. Then I get it.

RemindMe: Earth rises above the Earth’s horizon, for easy viewing!

Yeah, there’s not exactly a lot of options for those of us with front row seats to the US being dismantled.

This idealism around a violent revolution to resolve our problems is asinine. Protests are nice, but even they won’t solve the key issue: we have a king that ignores laws right now, and we’re being ruled by a kletocratic corporatocracy.

Good UI (in my android app) is the reason I came to Lemmy.

I don’t vibe with this. It’s always my fucking goddamn broken controller that gets in my way.

As an American, I want nothing more at this point than for the world to rise up and gain power. We are broken. We are failing. We need democracy on the world stage.

Pro global democracy means empowerment of our allies.

It’s been less shit at running games than Linux for… Well, always?

Downvote all you want, I’ve seen what makes you cheer.

Eh, people like me are going to judge you unless you have a bumper sticker. We call all Tesla’s “swasticars” in my family. The CEO did two Nazi salutes, and yes… Selling does harm the company.

They really are fucking everything up. Every billionaire in this country needs to be de-billionaired. It’s going to likely come down to the people doing this at this rate.

This isn’t even funny… This is something people will do. Jeep doesn’t give a fuck about safety. FUCK Jeep.
