Well, you’re doing god’s work then, son. Just trust in His plan.

I just got a new phone on Friday. There were like 50 kinds, various sizes and thicknesses, foldable, not foldable. The one I got is pretty slim but I’m guessing if people want thick phones someone will keep selling them.

I just let the fediverse worry about that. I guess just don’t share stuff you don’t want to share.

LOL yes I’m all for mocking species-specific group names. Just say “bunch” or “group” and everybody knows exactly what you mean.

You’re already here.

Currently they’re the leading cause of a ceasefire between Israel and Gaza, but that doesn’t count does it.

Our new sucker-tentacled overlords.

It seems like most big changes are set in motion by elites who benefit from them, with the teeming masses convinced a) to go along and b) that they’re driving. Historically this could be because elites have had a pulpit, either from holding office or having access to publishing and more recently broadcasting. In really recent times the masses finally got access to a broad audience via the Internet, but since they mostly use it to post boobs and complain about game companies, elites are still in the driver’s seat.

It’s possible that being led around by a privileged few is just how humans work, and it’s up to enlightened individual elites to make parts of the world better for short periods while they’re alive.

That actually sounds like a good personal motto. For a long time mine has been, “There’s always more than one way,” but you’ve got me thinking.

lol thanks, and that’s actually not surprising.

No, the salutes happen after people already let it die.

Reminder, Harris would not do this.

How does one figure that out? I’ve seen Harris supporters generally called centrists, and centrists compared with nazis.

Look, I’ve been specific that what I’m objecting to is people thinking their refusal to vote was the right and moral thing to do. All you’ve given is sarcasm and meme-level generalizations about “the voters” and “the Democrats”. You’re like a high school sophomore playing lawyer, which makes this conversation pointless. THAT’s why I’m done with you. I’m going to ignore you now, but feel free to continue your preaching.

Read this slowly: I am not blaming “the voters”, just THE FEW who fucked it up by not voting. I’m done here.

No, and sometimes that happens. Ultimately nobody won this one.

America is a big place, and how people will react to you depends entirely on where you go. Racial incidents increased after Trump took office in 2016 and they probably will again now, but in general you’re totally safe.

Only if you ignore the 75 million who did the right thing.

Reminder: Be sure to flair it as “Solved”!
