Here's the thing: They can't

If the Dems drop the culture war shit they'll have to actually think and act for the benefit of the people, that can't be right, that doesn't make money Same reason why the Right is constantly parading culture war bullshit too, right wing policy is absolute shit from a butt but that doesn't matter because they have people hooked on the cultureslop

    God I hope the fediverse gets bigger than it is now

    I don't want to be mean but Reddit has a fuckload of really niche and weird interests and hobbies that I happen to be in that lemmy just doesn't have.

    Folks can't handle the current alphabet because it's being used in the shittiest way possible

    Multi-century archaic spelling, preserved spellings in loaned words despite the sounds being different, hell there was a point where Big Dictionary was shoehorning random letters into words to make them more adjacent to their latin counterparts

    By all means you could triple the amount of letters in the alphabet and make it work, but as of now it's kinda just the worst case of sunk-cost to ever exist

    With every instance like this, it grows both hilarious and tragic that right wing figures of the like will inevitably, at some point, happen themselves upon a bit of CP on their hard drive

    By all means of logic no political group, let alone a political direction, should be this consistent with their ability to be pedophiles, but here we are

    I have a suspicion they put the gas turbines near those communities specifically to fuck with them the same way they bulldozed poor neighborhoods for roads

    Honestly 50/50

    You can't really bounce back from the bullshit that has just ensued immediately, it's also kinda apparent to your average leftist that the democratic party is kind spineless as fuck when it comes to the right, so to have judges IN TEXAS MIND YOU bounce back from their previous decisions? Not gonna be too easy

    There's no real way of fixing the system other than just a supermassive massacre of the upper class at this point, right?

    I've thought about it long and hard on if there's an easier option but I just can't get it
