People really can’t understand the economy turns like the Titanic. Trump fucked it, but we didn’t see the real effects until Biden’s term. We were heading into another Great Depression, and coupled with the effects of Covid, people massively underestimate how well the economy actually did under Biden.

Trump will coast on the Biden administration’s success for a while, and will take the credit. Once he fully fucks everything (and IF there are fair elections in 2028, which doesn’t seem likely), a future democratic administration will be blamed for the effects of trump’s fuckery. Repeat ad infinitum.

That’s how it’s worked for a century, and uninformed voters will always fall for it.

Yep, saw that. I retracted my links. I am not afraid to say I’m wrong online. Thanks for the correction.

Right, I think I wasn’t clear. I didn’t mean farming karma here, I meant posting here to copy Lemmy comments to post on Reddit to farm karma there.

If you want good karma with top comments that won’t be immediately called out as stolen from another Reddit thread, maybe, since some people have got wise to that? I dunno. I’m probably giving this more brain power than I should (eta because of all the reddit repost bots in my feed lately, probably.)

Musk says Americans will have to face ‘hardship’ if Trump wins

Totally unrelated trivia of the day: humans have often been called ‘long pork’.

I like idiotic slapstick as well as – well, no one really. I hate it.

But I got tired of this puppet show in weeks last time. There’s no comedy here, just tragedy.

All social* systems are susceptible to bigotry, and fascistic capitalism most of all.

Labour isn’t perfect by any stretch, but pretending both sides have been equally to blame is just as unfortunate in the UK as it is in the US, Germany, Australia, and Canada. One side may be slow to put your needs to the fore, but make no mistake, the other wants you dead.

It’s been decades, but… you press the button, spin to the station, then release the button?

Am I remembering correctly or should I check into the home now?

Your cat appears to have melted, and your wall outlet has gone italic. You may want to turn down the heat.

While law enforcement does not believe Thompson’s killing is part of a trend targeting health executives

Well, not with that attitude.

The reasons for that, though, are largely because the NHS has been under attack by the right wing for more than a decade. It was a huge inflection point for Brexit, and there’s been a major effort to break it so they can point at how broken it is.

Don’t use the NHS issues to judge how such a system would or should work for trans care. It’s been actively sabotaged.

What? And give up all that power? What reason would he have to go on living if not to inflict misery on everyone else day after day?

There’s probably a paragraph in his will insisting his corpse is propped up on the senate floor until it liquifies, just to increase everyone’s suffering.

The next 4 years are going to be fucking exhausting.

Ya don’t say.

You’re assuming trump intends to keep the USPS. He wants to destroy/privatise it. He said so all the way back in 2021, but at the time, didn’t have a mandate to actually accomplish it.

His cronies stand to make billions if the USPS is dismantled and all mail and shipping can go through their companies instead.

Here on Lemmy, and I’ve seen it posted elsewhere (BlueSky and in an article linked on Twitter).

I’ve deleted it since the source is too iffy.

That’s why I said ‘claimed to be’ and ‘not verified’.

Looks like a puppy who hasn’t quite mastered spatial awareness trying to jump out of the box, and he doesn’t get that it’s too tall for that. He looks at the floor every few hops, like he’s trying to figure out why it’s not working.

The Lemming Plunge.
