I’m living in reality, however unpleasant that may be. No “left” third party candidate will do anything but get Trump another term. I want better things for this country, but the way to get them isn’t to help elect a fascist hopeful dictator. Change needs to start at the bottom, you seem really motivated, you should go run for City council and start making the change you want to see. Right now your answer to not liking one candidate is to choose the one that probably would love to put you in a reeducation camp.
Cornell West, who’s campaign is being run by Jill “lunch with Putin” Stein. I thought more of West than to be an obvious Republican plant. I don’t even care what I think about Biden, he is the incumbent president and will be the candidate. I’ll vote for him in a second because the alternative is literally the likely destruction of the United States as we know it.
This isn’t hard. The US is a two party system right now. I don’t understand why people think a third party is ever a good idea right now. Maybe third parties should run in local elections instead of this dumb spoiler candidate for the president vs
Hey so this might come off combative but it’s not my goal, I really want info. Why is tildes not just Reddit redux? I could be very wrong here and would appreciate correction but as i understand it tildes is not part of the fediverse and control seems to land in the hands of the few, isn’t that what ended up driving most of us here to the fediverse? Maybe I’m wrong about all of this and I’d be thrilled if I was because the person who made RiF said they were moving to tildes and I loved RiF.
Honestly, yes. I’m a tech guy who is cool with the growing experience of new projects and I’m here to stay… But, I also like specific sports teams, politics, and other non techy subjects that aren’t going to make the move until they have no other choice or the issue is the community doesn’t have critical mass to provide for engagement and back and forth in the comments. There are a few communities I still check in to weekly or so on Reddit because the information doesn’t exist here yet. I hope those communities and members move to the fediverse some day, but to pretend that the offerings andb engagement here are equal or even “good enough” at the moment is unrealistic. My use of Reddit though has gone from hours a day to minutes a week and I refuse to upvote or comment, so while I miss a lot of things, I do my best to not help their metrics too much
It’d be hilarious if Trump wasn’t so terrifying. I think the man is a moron, but he could bring an end to our nation if reelected. People need to listen to things like this: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=DyWIhdg65wg
You can find this episode outside of YouTube. It’s a very important recounting of history.
I mean I’m clearly in some B-roll for the great food truck race (I think that was the name). I think who you include and exclude in the definition needs work, because I’ve 100% been on tv as a non actor in a non news program, but it’s not like I spoke to a camera or anything that would bring attention to me. (Your general question is very interesting though)
