Pretty sure calling women “females” is given the side eye in every English dialect.

Not just men, I’m a lesbian and I’ve experienced this with women too. Some people are really sensitive to constructive criticism especially during intimacy.

Based on my conversations with trump voters that’s exactly what happened. He’s an asshole and a circus leader but life was less expensive under him. Regardless of who’s responsible for the insane cost of living increase.

More like they didn’t want another four years of biden/Harris.

All but one trump voter I know held their nose to vote for him. And the one who didn’t is a cultist.

I agree with you, but it doesn’t matter. Most people are intellectually lazy. If you’re of average intelligence, half the population is dumber than you. Nearly half of America struggles to read at a sixth grade level… how are they supposed to use reason and logic against emotional manipulation when they’re barely literate? All by design of course. Keep the population dumb and desperate and they’ll accept whoever promises to save them. It’s not that people are inherently dumb, perhaps some are, but knowledge is a skill that can be worked at even if one isn’t born with a Ferrari for a brain.

Btw, you have heat, but we have devastating floods and landslides. Nowhere is safe from climate change, or Ted Cruz for that matter.

As for Ukraine and Israel, I support some assistance to Ukraine, and none to Israel. Fuck Israel. But Ukraine is also sketchy - arguably this wouldn’t of happened if we didn’t go regime changing. Victoria neuland (an Obama diplomat) did some shady shit there in the early-mid 2010s that involved the maiden protests which were a color revolution. They kicked out a pro Russian leader and installed a pro nato one. It’s shady at best. And the Ukrainian neo Nazis are a thing despite liberals trying to pretend they don’t exist (to be fair, there’s questionable groups on the Russian side as well).

All in all I wish we would stop meddling in other countries sovereign affairs and stop being the worlds policeman while we have homeless starving people here.

AI is making bullshit happen faster and it has an air of “trustworthiness” to it despite the fact that it’s bullshitting it’s answers like the smart kid in class who doesn’t bother to do homework.

Yellow journalism has been around since the Spanish American war but it’s never been this strong and flooding the information market with garbage that seems legit. It’s so efficient.

I disagree with ‘filtering’ content before it’s seen, unless there’s a way to filter out bots and ai junk. Otherwise it’s just a silencing of speech and depending on who controls the filter controls the speech. Imagine Elon musk or RFK Jr controlling what gets seen… arguably musk already does with shitter.

Idk I’m still blocking ads no problem.

English is my only language but go off liberal. Continue to remain in complete denial about why you lost. Continue to repeat the same mistakes over and over. Shit on the left, ratchet to the right, lose elections to fascists. Great work!

My side lost. I’m a leftist. We are politically homeless in America because the dems abandoned us long before I was even born.

I don’t have premium I just have an ad blocker

As my straight white female 30s friend (were in vermont so it’s inconsequential) said: “I can’t afford another four years of this. I did better under the other guy although I hate him.” When I asked her about reproductive rights since she’s a straight woman of childbearing age she said “we’re protected in vermont. If that changes I’ll change.” (We have a state constitutional right to abortion here)

This woman doesn’t hate queers, she doesn’t hate minorities, the only thing she hates is inflation making her work harder for less and less.

And then there’s the wars. Biden/Harris royally fucked up. the billions we send to Ukraine and Israel are deeply unpopular with average people who see rising homelessness and increased natural disasters and shitty government response to it (we’ve been hit hard in vermont with massive flash floods and landslides from rain bombs, it barely makes the national news). The American people are hurting and our government is pissing away money on foreign forever wars. Even with all the insane pro Israel propaganda to the point that our free speech rights are threatened over it, people still don’t support it.

• disagrees with me • concludes I’m a Russian bot

Lmfaooo. Look. If you wanna win future elections it’s time for democrats to do some self reflection as to why they lost instead of blaming everything under the sun because they’re still in the denial stage of grief.

When biden announced he was running for re-election was the day I knew trump would win, and that’s why I’m well past that stage of grief. Mostly, I feel unbelievable anger at the dems for allowing this to happen. They did it to themselves and only have themselves to blame. Democrat party operatives were too busy smelling their own farts to read the fucking room. Four years of gaslighting about inflation did them in the most, followed by not holding a primary yet screeching about saving democracy.

And now that they lost they’re just gonna give up power without any fight at all to the worst man ever!

Ah that’s my fault then as I almost never watch videos I absorb information better by reading.

Btw this isn’t critical of you, it’s just something to unfortunately be aware of in 2024 :(

Off topic but I believe we’re heading into an information apocalypse where we won’t be able to get factual trustworthy info anymore. I’ve been buying up books and I plan on downloading the entirety of Wikipedia but I might be late on that with ai going wild.

This is like the one time I agree with pelosi? Minus her comments about sanders.

I didn’t vote for stein. I’m saying they’re full of shit.

Shit. What’s wrong with lemmy world? That’s the instance I’m on.

Im a queer woman so take what you will from that…

A story in three parts: get an adblocker, problem solved

As a single (gay) woman over 30 who’s tired of having a uterus I’m moving to japan lmfao

Biden and Harris have been going on for years now about how trump is a dangerous fascist and the second coming of Hitler. Now they lost the election, they’re promising the peaceful transition of power.

Which is it? Is trump a dangerous fascist who needs to be defeated at all costs or was that just hyperbole to campaign on? Because if I were biden/Harris and I thought trump was the second coming of Hitler I wouldn’t be so easily and peacefully transitioning power.

It’s hard to take the democrats seriously when it ends up being theatre on their end.

Don’t downplay inflation. That’s how Harris lost in the first place.

I just want you to note that at the bottom of the link you sent me it essentially says it’s written with chat gpt.

It’s not trustworthy, though I agree with it.
