Reading this on my 2021 G Stylus. Husband keeps trying to convince me to get a newer phone. But I haven’t had any problems with this one yet!

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What's your favourite niche website that is still running and hasn't changed much in 20~ or so years?
5·4 months agoWas coming to post MeFi if wasn’t already here, had to scroll all the down though. Seems fitting seeing your name at the end of a bunch of comments!
I’ve only finished one of them, but it does seem like it could be one of the missions from Just Cause 4. Unfortunately I have a horrible memory.
I don’t understand how I’m even reading your comments… I guess the censor’s sleeping. It is pretty late.
To me the weirdest thing isn’t how they still support him, it’s how little it seems the rest of US could care.
It’s like the thing with Nigerian scammers and how they weed out the folks who aren’t gullible and get fat off the rest. The flamboyant absurdity that turns off normies is what attracts his victims (this is the first time I’ve actually thought of his voters as victims). I’m also reminded of whale sharks and how they filter out water and get fat off the plankton.
But where are the Democrats in this? There’s no adversarial someone out there between a scammer or filter feeder and their prey. And sure, the people that are going to vote for him aren’t going to listen to a Dem. But what about the entire apathetic electorate? That’s the seawater Trump is using to filter feed on his victims. Without that apathy he can’t win. If only there were some way Democratic electeds could reduce apathy amongst the American people. Some way that wouldn’t upset donors, that is.
sigh
I’m afraid it’ll be voter apathy vs whale shark scammer this November.

politics @lemmy.world•James Carville Has Meltdown Over Young Voters Sitting Out the Election
3·2 years agoBut how? Democrats have been trying to get the media to discuss what they want when they want for like 4 decades now. Mainstream media has decided it’s on the side of business and Dems are bad for that (I disagree, but then I’m not a CEO, just someone who can read a chart), so how do you get them talking about the benefits of (D) actions instead of just the drawbacks they want to highllight in the 3 minute segment they only agreed to just to show how unrealistic or expensive or whatever they think those actions are?

politics @lemmy.world•Murkowski, done with Trump, won’t rule out leaving GOP
3·2 years agoHe would have had to have to focus his criming on one criminal act, in one jurisdiction. He’s crimed all over the place, in a variety of ways. The legal systems are just responding to that. I don’t know how you expect crimes in Georgia to be ignored because he’s committed crimes in New York, for example.

14·2 years agoWow.
I can’t imagine what could possibly have turned you from being interested in how this all started and who we ought to really place the blame on into just trying to be the biggest dipshit.

243·2 years agoAre you just too young to remember libtard, feminazi, etc? Or are you deliberately telling lies to craft some kind of narrative where the side you support is the poor put upon victim that couldn’t possibly be expected to have responsibility for a god damned thing?

2·2 years agoAll of them are caused by idiot Republicans being idiots would be my guess!
But google says 21 of them in the last 5 decades, or 14 since 1980, or 4 since 2010… depending on the article and how far you want to go back.

politics @lemmy.world•Hunter Biden opens impeachment testimony: ‘I did not involve my father in my business’
142·2 years agoGood luck trying to convince anyone there’s lots of Americans who A) didn’t even have a single tattered shred of concern regarding Trump family members’ unchecked corruption while being actual White House advisers and B) are actually very concerned about the wealthy getting away with shit.
I mean you’re gonna need Trump levels of salesmanship to get anyone to buy that, and it just don’t seem like you’ve got it. Y’all never do. Thank goodness… one Trump is more than enough.
And “privileged minority”? Like, Jesus fucking Christ my guy.

politics @lemmy.world•Hundreds of Protesters Crash Biden Fundraiser in San Francisco, Demanding a Cease-Fire in Gaza
21·2 years agoOk, if they were confining that to Hamas maybe it would be good news. But how many Palestinians were “eliminated” on the way to delivering you your “good news”. How many dead children? How many doctors, teachers, drivers, grandparents have been eliminated to bring you this good news?
I just don’t think that Israeli lives are any more or less important than Palestinian lives. So murdering 30,000 Gazans doesn’t seem like remotely good news to me.
But then again I’m not a bloodthirsty bigot.

152·2 years agoPalestine doesn’t even have an army. What war are you talking about?
This is more a “special military operation” as retaliation for a terrorist attack. Because this ain’t a war, it’s a massacre of mostly innocent people. I mean… they’re literally targeting children. And the ambulance trying to reach them.

161·2 years agoHow?
In what kind of way is trying to get a president to change his mind on helping to destroy Gaza and its people anything like bringing in a bunch of Young Republicans to stop counting legitimate votes in order to steal an election?
Like, even just on vibes alone… how?
That’s not what racism is.
