Idk, white folks voting for Trump is an issue if you ask me, a white guy. Too many white folks sane washing his shit. Morning Joe went from “he’s a fascist” to “let’s put out differences aside”. Other whities need to realize this is a grift that will likely kill your own.

Why should I feel sorry for you and answer your question?

GitHub definitely would and has in the past. YouTube-dl is on GitHub and gets a pass because it is used by researchers and archivists, both are fair use. forgejo.org would let you be your own fedi-github and might be worth checking out (could be easier than designing a plugin system and additional repos).

Musk just had a judge in Texas say they’re going to review the bid. I guess we know who the other bidder was now.

Consider that many people who watched the Joker and idolize him didn’t get that the movie was speaking against the character. Fascists don’t understand camp, and so they don’t get that it’s a critique unless the director explicitly tells them so.

Like the plot line.

We can keep telling ourselves Mark Cuban’s “opportunity economy” was good enough but objectively it was a flop with working class voters. Either it was a messaging failure or it wasn’t populist enough, Bernie is saying it is the latter. If it was a messaging failure, then we’re likely to conclude it is because our media landscape is toxic. Bernie would agree and say that is why we need a populist message to cut through.

NAFTA and Wall Street bailouts come to mind.

In regards to Bernie, his premise is that wealth inequality is the core problem, which means tax the rich until they can’t have an outsized influence on our politics.

Oh, I think the people getting rid of Lisa Kahn have other ideas about competition.

The call is coming from inside. Google CEO claims it will be like alien intelligence so we should just trust it to make political decisions for us bro: https://www.computing.co.uk/news/2024/ai/former-google-ceo-eric-schmidt-urges-ai-acceleration-dismisses-climate

You might be on to something in the sense that coming back with a more inclusive response is a better approach. I don’t think that makes them “right” though.

But then how will billionaires get to say they’re literally thinking of the big picture because they got to go on a brief space joy ride?

I wanna punch the voice that says “but won’t the homeless sleep in the bushes?”

Not sure who needs to hear this but the amount of money spent on private jets by these billionaires in 1 year could replace all our lead pipes in the USA.

Billionaires are celebrities now? Like that’s true for Taylor Swift, but Bezos?

Probably because we’ll all be dead, which also happens to be a solution to climate change.

Don’t like it? Then start a revolution.

You summed it up correctly. The thing is the presidential race used to be a horse show, but that format was somehow easily hijacked by a rodeo clown.

The point is they don’t get fired for laying off staff.

Back in the day they wanted cops to appear more friendly so they would drive convertibles. Not having a hard cabin between them and their watch “made them more approachable”.
