The left bans information too. Quite a lot. And actually they didn’t ban books. The government simply did not provide books. You just demonstrated that you are disconnected from reality right then. On every issue the left is disconnected from reality.

Do you think men shouldn’t have rights?

Yeah. Voting is retarded. Yet if anyone on the right tells you that republican democracy is a failed concept that creates a false sense of control and corruption you call them un-democratic and a nazi. But if you come to that conclusion yourself its ok.

You still haven’t figured it out yet? The middle hates echo chambers. The right and left both have echo chambers but they vote against the one that seems more disconnected from reality. By controlling speech and removing content as a knee-jerk reaction to any inconvenient information or opinion as a habit, the left have separated themselves from reality more than the right, by at least a little.

This comes off as threatening to people. Because a mob of people disconnected from reality that will simply silence anyone’s defense of themselves feels like a situation that could get out of hand. And everyone has experienced having their speech controlled. They don’t like it.

All politics is a proxy for culture war. And you lost a culture war by being controlling assholes. Watch you try to silence me right now. Just know that that habit going forward will make you lose more.

Exactly. If want to stay connected to reality we should use historical analogies only. Remember when Maduro promised Venezuelans a better life, but life just got shitty instead. And instead of eating Nicolás Maduro they ate out of trash bins.

And he did give them a better life. They ate him because it served the movie’s plot. Also wtf was mufasa doing to make all the land more sunny? Was it that whole circle of life thing where he gets to eat his subjects?

Doesn’t the left sometimes misrepresent the right? Putting the most extreme example of the left in a meme is no different than putting the most extreme example of the right in a meme. People like that do exist.

Well that’s how they feel. You can laugh about it, but that’s not really going to improve anything.

They’ve been told since they were kids that there being less of them is the highest improvement society can make. Imagine if they open taught that to black kids that in public school.

Maybe because they’ve been demonized since they were children?

Why wouldn’t you just watch it instead of hoping?

Also it wasn’t a toss up. Trump won every single swing state. All of them. This article is some mad copium. Prepare to see more of it over the next few days.

But also companies don’t do things for free, so what were they hoping to get out of paying?

Don’t do OOP kids

Or because at that time they only knew white people so they assumed he looks like a person.

It doesn’t even have to be some subconscious ethnocentrism. It could just be someone painting what they know people to look like.

Simple solution. Move to a town that isn’t fully of pretentious haters. You could always live around normal people. But some towns are cursed with these kinds of people.

Democracy dumbs down civilization.

I do wish there was a way to hide the thumbnail because it’s kind of a spoiler. I thought about marking it nsfw.

Unfair. She could sober up before doing that. Which she won’t do while in office or on the campaign.

This is the most absurd thing I’ve ever read. Both of them have a poor track record on the constitution. A weird fantasy people have cooked up in their head without evidence shouldn’t be the best of lemmy. It can be a fear. It can be a fear people talk about. But the best content of anything? I hope not.

Do you want to know why Kamala is doing poorly in the election odds. It’s not that she’s a worse candidate. People vote for or against social movements. Plenty of reason to vote against the MAGA social movement. But middle america is voting against the delusionment they see on the left and that they see on internet formums. This kind of disconnect from reality scares them, and they vote against your candidate.

Both candidates will do nothing about Israel. Kamala is maybe an ounce better on communication on this issue. But the genocide will keep going on no matter what sadly. It should be unacceptable to us, but if voting is our only mechanism of control its basically zero control over that issue.
