I thought racial/class bias was due to lack of education and lack of access to information.

Holy cow was I wrong.

I’m a big fan of the game, and it’s on my steam list, but I’d say no. It’s way too old to be $30.

I’m not convinced there’s any resolution to this current situation that’s not very very bad. I really hope to be proved wrong.

Let’s suppose for a moment that they actually succeed in dismantling/removing all these federal things. Just for the sake of argument.

At what point will the states band together to say “we’ve had enough” and call a constitutional convention and just… dismantle the fed?

If only dems were even half as tough on actual fascists as they are on progressives.

We can’t have anything nice

Everyone is doing this, partially to stop AI scrapers and bots. It’s a bit weird on an “about” page, but welcome to 2025 and the dead internet.

I hope they keep it this time, I’m tired of seeing these, and then “oh, MS gave us a great deal soooo”

I just went with independent, which removes me from the “primaries”, but also removed me from all the non-stop text messages and phone calls begging for money to support a party that does little more than shrug non-committaly.
So, no? I’m from the US, I don’t really get a choice in ISP, phone network, or political representative, but boy I sure do get to pick from a number of different cereals.

I am more active at the very local level, though, which seems to be the only place an individual can have impact.

Stuff like this is why I left the dem party, they’re only strong opponents to progressives, not conservatives. The best summary I ever saw of them was: GOP: “fascism” DNC: “fascism ✨🏳️‍🌈”

This feels like clickbait - I find it hard to believe the writers of this piece are unaware of the protests. The better question, perhaps, is “why does media refuse to cover the protests”, and the answer to that is obvious - the media (damn near all of it) is controlled by the very oliarchs we’re protesting.

Can’t think of any times when “undesireables” have been sent to prisons/gulags in other countries. Nope. Nothing springs to mind…

I think even UK common law has something to say about that, some kind of Magna Carta? We regressed right back to pre-constitutional monarchy, do not pass go.

Dude literally pointed to his friends who made a killing on it, and posted “buy” info on his socials before reversing.

If we had any kind of system of laws, that’d be jail time.

I’ve always assumed that was the whole point

Probably my faves. There’s a few others on pixelfed/mastodon that I follow as well, but more special interest

KDE. I’ve been using it as my daily driver for roughly 10 years now, and barring any unforeseen excitement, it’ll stay that way indefinitely. Proably until I stop using Linux, anyhow.

Well, there’s certainly some rallies. I’ve attended a couple, but we’re certainly getting low on polite options.
