Well we just fire you, and the one you’re still using then must be your personal one!

I’m uninformed. What’s the reason for the porn ID thing? Is it just porn or more?

I’m not shitting on it, and it is not enough at the same time.

I’m amazed at the yanks coming out of the woodwork in this thread.

You as a collective citizenry have not stepped up. At all. Barely ⅓ voted for him. Probably closer to 20~25% liked him over the other. I’m sure that’s gone down significantly.

There is not a single person outside the US who is watching this who thinks the yanks are doing enough. It’s great there was one big protest, but it is a far cry from a proportionate response to the crisis levelled at you.

Instead of attacking people here on Lemmy, I would organise. This isn’t shaming or slamming, it is constructive criticism because as much as we would all want to, we aren’t in any capacity to come land on your beaches anytime soon. And half of you still thinks the midterms will bring reason and mediation to this madness.

Easier to argue with me than actually doing something hey?

You’re making my point: the level of constitutional crisis you’re at snd have been at for at least a year, warrants slightly more than a twice “noteworthy” protest. That’s the argument.

You can lay off the personalised attacks, I’m just explaining the core point, which you exemplify perfectly: yanks will find excuse after excuse not to make meaningful social change vs any other western democracy.

And it’s 300+ million. And all the other reasons hopefully will soon begin becoming reasons to go and not excuses to not go.

People aren’t calling you names, they’re just genuinely wondering how much worse you need before things get to your magical 3% threshold.

Because it’s pretty bad.

I mean you’re lashing out at me, that’s how bad, and you’ve never done that before.

Sorry to hear your american ass couldn’t read all of my response. I’ll try to be briefer next time.

I’m really not sure what you’re trying to prove.

In one country 0.018% rocks up at a moment’s notice for a guy they could care less about and has no real effect on their lives, isn’t deporting their families or screwing them out of medicare. He’s not disrespecting their vets or pulling them off food stamps. He’s coming over to golf, that’s the extent of the relation.

They just don’t like him and will make some time on whatever Sunday he rocks up to tell him that.

Compare that to to 1.4% (barely 100x more) protesting after years of crimes, n and proud admissions of rape, child molestation, cheating at 3 elections, being illegitimate installed as president right now, impeachments, thousands of illegal deportations of fellow citizens or countrymen, complete bonkers enrichment with crypto scams, gross incompetence on lots of levels, including militarily and economically, embroiled in scandal after scandal

So after MONTHS of organising, there were 2 protests which had over 1% of the population out on the streets. And now… nothing. Not even a general strike. Because the free markets are so free, you freely would like to express your freedom of expression if you only were actually free.

Have a look at when that magical 1% threshold was breached in other countries historically and for what reasons.

And while you’re there, look at what happened after. Typically when you have 1% protests, they are met with action from the goverment. Promises and changes are made to appease the protesters. Back in the USA, they went home, and stayed home. Deportations continued afterwards. And then a bill was signed to make ICE the new gestapo and become the biggest domestic paramilitary organisation in the world.

Not sure why anyone would ever try to claim “Americans are great protesters, and love civil action”.

Well, that’s how things happen in France, Syria and a lot of other places historically. It’s already played out twice in the last year.

And because of the complete complacency in the citizenry first with Citizens United, then the failure to hold him to criminal account for his many crimes and endless quid pro quo, and the stacking of the supreme court turning him into a king, the bullet is actually the only way to stop him. That or waiting till he collapses, which could be a while.

There are no more elections or protests to get rid of him. The concentration camps are being built and filled. The only thing left is to get all your highly individualised asses who don’t even know the concept and power of unions and banding together and form a militia.

The complacency is absolutely insane to see from abroad.

PS: and learn from JFK: have multiple shooters not just one.

I think they meant as a percentage of the population. Americans with the second amendment are notoriously docile little pups when it comes to protesting anything, let alone the illegitimately installed head of their state actively destroying their country their are so notoriously patriotic about.

It’s because USA has nukes my friend. The only way your enemies can attack you is through asymmetric warfare, mostly by corrupting your political system so that you attack yourself.

If you’ve wondered why everything looks like a coup since he got in, perhaps it is because it is one.

And if you’re wondering why Democrats like Tim Walz are not even interested in investigating it themselves, well, the existence of certain files and whether or not they are disclosed could have something to do with that.

Was not intended as programming language. The name literally stands for Hypertext PreProcessor. It was meant to be a script injector for HTML back when the internet was still fun.

Then it got out of hand and PHP didn’t evolve fast enough to be a web technology leader, but never ceded the position of old trusty workhorse, and still powers a significant part of websites.

I would argue the opposite. The reason DJT got in is because the fact that the establishment is one party and there is no real choice.

I’m here to tackle the larger problem that causes DJT. Focusing on just removing him will just put another spineless kompromatted person in his place.

This is not whataboutism. It’s pointing out hypocrisy of a party that is over the last 8 years have first failed at holding DJT accountable and now are actively collaborating on enabling his authoritarian state by first confirming his incompetent cabinet, then by voting for his bills and now trying to placate voters by “doing an effort” to release the files.

Not to mention railing against democratic candidates who have popular support in their own party.

There’s a broader context, but you know that or you wouldn’t start swearing the second someone disagrees with you.

Yeah, I think the reddit rats have effectively jumped ship.

The federation model doesn’t fix brigading like this.

Oh yes thank you, and the countless of derailing whataboutism comments about being on the wrong instance. That also makes this a really warm and welcoming place.

I think Lemmy has been taken over in the last few weeks.

Comments like this would be 100% upvoted at the top, and now it’s “a debate” or “you could have said that kinder”

Of course the Dems are on the files. They are “making an effort” because it’s a political no brainer. They now GOP will block it and look bad doing it, and they can campaign on that they wanted it released.

Those files are the reason we only have 5 frames of whatever impacted the pentagon, why Trump was never held accountable for any of his serious crimes, and how the entire cabal works.

If you can keep them quiet with kompromat, you control the entire state. How is this not bleeding obvious for anyone with half a brain?

Where do we go now that Lemmy is becoming another Reddit?

LOL

You think it is about citizenship do you? That’s cute.

Just be white. That’s all. This is ethnic cleansing, and it will get a lot worse over the coming months.

Also, your elections were rigged. You’re living through a hostile takeover of your country. If election laws didn’t matter, and national security breaches didn’t put him in jail, you really think this has anything to do with legality?

They are just using the belief of the masses in law against themselves, the same way we all believe a dollar has “gold backing”.

The moment we stop believing, is the moment we will be free.

Edit: If you’ve wondered why everything looks like a coup since he got in, perhaps it is because it is one.

And I would love to keep it that way. The golddigger just removed all her posts and deleted her account. Lemmy turned out to not provide her with the mirror mirror on the wall function she desired.

Take care

unrelated post

Ok, sticking up for the Trump supporter and not being able to connect two topics. I can be civilised, but people like you and the golddigging-Trump-supporter-in-denial make it really hard.

Ah good you’re all fine then. You’re welcome here too, as world mods seem to be on the side of making sure fascist enablers like yourself are treated civilly (while you support the guy who is the most uncivilised doing inhumane things to non white Americans. Citizens and non citizens. )

But of course your rich husband needs to be richer and that takes precedence. Totally understand.

So after Reddit and Lemmy where do we go next?
