Me at American Airports: Why the fuck do I have to take off my belt/shoes and throw away my water? They just let me walk into a crowded airport with this shit....

Making money > Everything else. Once we concede that America is hyper capitalist most other problems can be explained.

And then people wonder where the modern-day civil rights leaders are. The U.S. government will murder anyone who gains the ability to upset the status quo. The best we're going to get is social media personalities like Dr. Umar and comedians like Charlamagne Tha God.

After the reddit exodus I started creating memes for the first time and posting them on Lemmy. I've learned that it's harder to be funny than I thought. Also a lot of time/effort and I have actually important things in my life that I focus on. Reposting was also kinda fun but what's the point really

I don't think that "both sides are the same", but there is a Venn Diagram of shared interests under the two party system; the overlap is fairly large (e.g., both parties are susceptible to lobbying, both parties fight to maintain first past the post voting, etc.)

This is what I don't get. Everyone here had the sentiment of "we will vote for anyone who is not Donald Trump". But then they balked at the suggestion that Biden should drop out and insisted that no one could replace him.
Now that Biden has been replaced.... they're saying Biden being replaced was a low percentage gamble. Something here doesn't add up.

This comment alone is making me interested in Greek mythology. I'd like to know more. Any reading suggestions toward that end?
