Now watch as all the corporations that paused their advertising slowly return to the platform.

Vietnam war all over

"Foreign agents are brainwashing our youth to be against the war"

This whole thread just reminded me why I hate techbros. Thanks

"He might lose some pro-palestinian voters but gain some pro-israel moderates"

This is the main problem with the democratic party. They are always tryign to please the far-right, but they are unwilling to compromise with the far-left

And all of that is a consequence of demonizing and extinguishing all the left-wing movements in the US. And the democratic party is complicit in that.

It certainly says something about the average american that they are more willing to tolerate a fascist than a socialist.

Israel support is one of those things where you can confidently say that both sides are the same

As an amateur artist, mastodon is really not friendly to newcomers like me.

I had to figure out what an instance was and pick one (I chose mastodon.art since I was interested in that)

After wondering why I couldn't find other people's accounts, it turned out that I shouldn't have picked that instance because it had defederated from almost anyone else.

So now I had to create another account in another instance, which turned out to be so full my posts were not getting any traction.

With Bluesky I just created an account and I immediately gained a few followers

It is just not worth the hastle.

Let's get real, most of the people stayed on reddit. Only a very small fraction tried lemmy and an even smaller fraction have completely stopped using reddit.

"the scope creep of feminism that causes it to encompass issues like disability rights and economic inequality, I think feminism is becoming indistinguishable from leftism."

Why do you say that like it's a bad thing?

From a right wing monopolistic billionaire to another right wing monopolistic millionaire

Cool.

Biden is not in favour of any of that.

How is Biden yanking the chain?

He hasn't done anything to stop the funding and the sales of weapons.

If you want something manufactured in a country that isn't commiting human rights violations then you are not going to find it (not even the US, which is also funding a genocide right now)

Everyone was so worried about "talkies" that they didn't realize this place became infected with conservatives

Socialism is still very demonized in American politics. Try to get into a position of power while describing yourself as a socialist (and I mean an actual socialist eg. ending the Cuban embargo, supporting left-wing movements across the world and advocating for the end of capitalism).

Also neither Bernie nor any democratic politician is a actually socialist, they are still very capitalist. At best they are for "capitalism with a human face)

BuT wE hAvE FrEeDuMb!!!!

I think the problem with posts like this is that they are biased to the US. In real life, Facebook is still widely used outside the US, Twitter still has the majority of users and Instagram and Snapchat are used bye everyone.

Honestly, it feels very rushed

Yeah, but that's the thing, most of them have not abandoned Twitter, they have just created accounts elsewhere. For now, at least on the case of nsfw artists, leaving Twitter is unfeasible.

Why would he? He's gonna get finnancial support no matter what party wins

I don't like this, because one of the most used arguments in favor of capitalism is supposedly the free market and how you are allowed to make money doing what you like. If now it turns out that only a few things are classified as jobs then... where are the benefits of capitalism?

Telling him anythin is not yanking the chain. As long as the US keeps supplying him with weapons and money he knows he can keep doing what he wants.

They are the same when it comes to Israel support

Tried it. The front page is nothing but conspiracy and crypto bullshit. So no, thanks.

What comments like this fail to understand is that people sometimes like to do nothing with their free time.

YouTube became as popular as it is because it fulfilled a necessity, for good or bad

And democrats call themselves leftists...
