Right now, I use facebook to 2% check up on relatives living in other states and 98% spread political messaging.
Aljernon@lemmy.todayto Political Weirdos @lemmy.world•Why do they all have the same procedure?1·4 days agoI agree to a degree, since many styles popular with women either require some mix of skill, free time, or money to maintain or signal an inability to look like that and perform labor (super long nails and high heels). Mens fashion often goes there but has a cycle were it shifts back to practical whenever a big war happens.
I also seen good arguments that there’s cultural elements specific to MAGA that make women butcher their faces like this, though.

Aljernon@lemmy.todayto Political Weirdos @lemmy.world•Conservatives blame the "far left" for violent rhetoric while also saying this1·4 days agoTo be fair, there’s plenty of violent rhetoric on the Far Left but their idea of the far left is democrats (who are on the Political Right) and Liberals (who are on the Political Center) and both of those two groups account for the majority of resistance in this country to the very idea of political violence.

The rise of Fascism has allowed alot of the American Right to be unapologetically Far Right and drop any pretense of caring about the Constitution or the Bill of Rights.
Aljernon@lemmy.todayto Political Weirdos @lemmy.world•'It is criminal': GOP lawmaker Derrick Van Orden wants Gavin Newsom to be arrested for Stephen Miller insult1·4 days agoMost people are. It’s the big reason (aside from being black and a woman) why Kamala struggled so much; she ran on a platform of “Trump is obviously a bad choice” instead of “here’s why I’m a good choice”
Their worldview treats kids like objects you own rather than little human beings you’re responsible for.
The Dementia was obvious to me but some people who were used to what a rambling dumbass he was at the best of times might have missed it.
I’ve already committed to not voting for any presidential candidate who will finish a hypothetical second term term in their 70’s. So that means no older than 61 during the race…
Assuming we have elections again, of course.
It’s not 100 percent accurate but the easiest way to tell is by what kind of sunglasses he wears.
Aljernon@lemmy.todayto Political Weirdos @lemmy.world•Did he show Fox News his Antifa Members Only card before going on?1·4 days agoI’m guessing he’s the MAGA brother in law of one of the producers.
Most of windows products get increasingly worse over time. Security updates aside, I’ve never understood why the didn’t just stop updating things to save themselves the money and save us the hassle.
Aljernon@lemmy.todayto Comic Strips@lemmy.world•Kids these days... (appeared in The Daily Mirror, 1938)31·5 days agoI’m noticing a certain level affluence in the left image. I wonder if people from poor families in that time period would look as fondly at a time before radios.
Aljernon@lemmy.todayto Technology@lemmy.world•Crunchyroll Faces Cancelation: Why Anime Fans Are Choosing Piracy After Latest UpdateEnglish1·5 days agoIf our country finishes it’s transition to fascism and I did nothing to stop that, I’ll have to own that. Inaction will lump me in with the fascists. Neutrality makes me a guilty party; for evil to triumph, all good men must do is nothing. History isn’t kind to collaborators regardless of their reasons.
Aljernon@lemmy.todayto Technology@lemmy.world•Crunchyroll Faces Cancelation: Why Anime Fans Are Choosing Piracy After Latest UpdateEnglish2·5 days agoNo, I’m a Leftist.
Aljernon@lemmy.todayto Technology@lemmy.world•Crunchyroll Faces Cancelation: Why Anime Fans Are Choosing Piracy After Latest UpdateEnglish91·6 days agoOk, but fascism is wildly popular in the USA right now.
Yes, we’re a fascist country now.
But more to the point, brining up a country that was founded on Genocide of Native Americans to argue that we shouldn’t speak ill of a country founded on Genocide of Palestinians is wild.
a few terrible people in power have sway with a vast number of easily led racists
This describes both Nazi Germany and Fascist Italy. Again, weird take unless you’re pushing for us to drop the Nazi label from 1933-1945 Germany.
Aljernon@lemmy.todayto News@lemmy.world•Federal agents shoot woman they say 'boxed in' authorities on Chicago's South Side6·5 days ago“Chicago police officers who arrived were greeted with shouts from protesters complaining that the police were not protecting them.”
Lol, most US cops pick that job because they like hurting people and know they’ll get away with almost anything.
Aljernon@lemmy.todayto News@lemmy.world•Federal officer blasts chemical spray into vocal but nonviolent Portland protester, video shows5·6 days agoIn a just society, this video alone would be enough for that officer to be arrested and if the feds wouldn’t couldn’t then the state would. But we don’t live in a just society and it’s fast turning into a fascists dictatorship
We need an anti-flock campaign. A city government didn’t give them permission to put their cameras up and when they did it anyway, the city covered them in garbage bags before they could get removed.
