The DNC signed it’s death warrant with that one. Bernie got screwed. We got Trump. The Supreme Court just handed Trump ultimate supreme dictator status. We all know Biden doesn’t have the balls to do anything about it and he certainly isn’t going to win the election.
As long as the R’s can get 40 seats in the Senate this fall the great experiment finally fails.
If you want my respect
I don’t.
Voting for the stunt double from weekend at Bernie’s does not grant you superiority.
Most of us have been voting in the primaries and are involved in local politics. It didn’t matter. The R/D machine drowns out all opposition to its duopoly.
Biden will not win this election. Democracy died while he confusedly stared into the camera for 6 seconds. Beyond that, he fumbled his closing statement which should disqualify from any public speaking position.
Trump is inevitable. We did all we could to get an alternative to Biden, but his hubris will destroy us.
The Dems are intentionally throwing it. It’s the only thing that makes sense at this point. The “Not Trump” donations are lucrative, and there’s no way the R’s will make insider trading illegal.
This might be the spark we need for a legitimate progressive party though. Or we get a civil war, who knows.
I don’t get it. Why kid yourself that Biden can still win this? This is like watching Hillary drop in the polls all over again.
The D’s need to pull him now.
We are literally voting for the chance of a catastrophic heart attack at this point. It’s utterly insane.
Whoever the mythical undecided people are, they decided last night and Biden isn’t going to recover from that.
Lol…it took 3 minutes after the debate for ABC to essentially call for Biden to step down. Finally someone said the quiet thing out loud.
That might have been the worst debate performance in the history of US presidential debates. When Kennedy won might be the only other death swing in polls like we will see tomorrow.
This was in response to me saying that I think our technology and care are pretty good
The kicker to all this…it’s not. Our healthcare is absolute ass compared to the rest of the world. The only thing we’re ahead on right now is erection pill and weight loss drugs.
If you end up with cancer or a moderately complex injury, you’re fucked. Good luck on that lead time to see a specialist.
I’m pretty sure everyone’s dad says that. As a dad, I’ve said it too. I’d almost rather be in prison than a nursing home, it’s the same atmosphere but way cheaper.
Because Bezos jerks off at the thought of immortality and he has fuck you money to jerk off with.
It seems like if I were going to build something to try and test time, it’d be functional and good for humanity. Let’s see if we can build a probe to outlast voyager. Let’s build an ocean in the middle of the desert…things like that.
Yes…it should. The only answer to this problem is universal healthcare…period. if this were implemented poor people will be in crippling debt the rest of their lives and once again the middle class will eat even higher insurance premiums to make up for it.
Big healthcare will get aggressive around settling it’s debts and it will squeeze blood from a stone if it has to.
Universal Healthcare or nothing.
But these people who are getting paid to humanise AI are fantastic opportunists. Sure, it’s not a great job, but they have effectively recognised a new seat at a moment when we’re redefining the idea of productivity.
That’s fucking soul crushing.
We just fired you to hire this machine, however, if you’d like to stick around and edit for it, we will pay you 1/4 to 1/2 your current rate.
Jesus…fuck that guy.
Wait until you see how much the monthly cost is for a family these days if you’re going through the exchange.
The other fun game is tech doesn’t offer it anymore. I’m in the job hunt and 7 of 10 jobs make you go out of pocket, the next two give you and obscene monthly responsibility so they can say they offer it, and the 10th job has 5000 applicants.
It’s not sustainable.
It should eliminate your need to work, but Musk feeds on the attention and less so the money. There’s not a thrill left he can’t afford.
Running around and acting important is all he has left.
My point is Palestine as a whole or even partially support Hamas. Go Google it…you’ll see from 30-90 percent support.
Only a couple of Hamas flags flying would surprise me.
It’s not pretty… https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/poll-shows-palestinians-back-oct-7-attack-israel-support-hamas-rises-2023-12-14/
People on Lemmy seem to think Hamas just wants to bring unicorns and rainbows to the region. When in reality, they’d stone most of the users here for their views.
It’s all weird. I don’t know what kind of social engineering they did to make it OK to kill 1000 civilians, but their campaign was wildly successful.
The problem is 60-70% of Palestine supports Hamas. This isn’t a fringe group waving flags around.
It’s too bad the D’s won’t put up a candidate like our lives depend on it.
This will solidify the gig economy in a bad way.
Am I the only one that remember wieserman-sholtz getting successfully sued over that? I swear this country has the memory of an 81 year old president.
