Daily reminder that the moral high road is filled with corpses.

The keys to GAINING power are not the same keys needed to KEEP power.

They gained the power (or will in a few months)

Now they need to keep it.

If one of the keys needed to get it could potentially turn on you, it’s better for your regime to eliminate them as soon as possible after taking power.

For a better explanation, CGP GREY has a video about rules for rulers, which clears things up quite well: https://youtu.be/rStL7niR7gs

Nobody sued them over gay leaders.

They got sued by parents over not doing anything about pedos, AND got sued by prospective leaders because they were being prevented from joining over their sexual orientation.

Bill wanted to be a scoutmaster since he grew up with scouts, but since he was gay, he was not allowed. He then sued the organization over it. (idk names, that’s just for clarity)

And even if you DO post in small communities, half the time it’s a toss-up as to whether anyone will see it.

I’m not sure about lemmy, but reddit was roughly 50% US users, so it was a good bet that if you timed posts for “early morning” US browsing or “after work” EU browsing, your post would do well.

Idk lemmy’s demographic breakdown, but it seems more generalized (imagine that, a diverse fediverse!) around the world, so it’s hard for me to tell when the most users will be active.

You can get the same ksp2 experience with ksp1 and the seemingly infinite amount of mods available.

Want more realistic everything? Mods for that.

Want to make a jumbo jet that can also travel to Ike?there’s Mods for that.

Want everything to be reskinned to look different? You better BELIEVE there’s mods for that.

And the best part is if you own ksp1 (or at least if you have it on your computer to play, wink wink) it’s free! No need to pay for a full game that’s just been modified slightly, now you just slightly modify it yourself. (or mod it so heavily that startup takes 20 minutes and if you don’t use the part search function you’ll be scrolling for hours)

The moral high road is littered with corpses, and it looks like we’re bound and determined to add more to the pile.

As usual, the mere threat of potential domestic terrorism wins.

We don’t negotiate with terrorists, we hand them the country. And sit quietly when they start destroying things. Like good sheep.

I plan on reminding every family member, at every opportunity, when they complain about some benefit they’ve lost, “tough shit, you specifically voted for this”

Yep! Sure is!

Thanksgiving with the religious family is gonna be great.

I’m still unconvinced of any God’s existence, let alone the Abrahamic God.

But if I did, I’d believe with 100% certainty that this man is the antichrist.

I can’t remember the website, but awhile back someone made a blog post that draws parallels between the Bible and real life to show that DT is the antichrist, and as someone who’s read it cover to cover, it’s creepy how much matches up directly, and how much more could fit a general aspect.

By general aspect I mean like how you could see someone 500-2,000 years ago describing an A-10 Warthog (with the stereotypical angry face painted on the side) as a screeching bird of prey with the head of a lion that spits fire and thunder from its mouth.

Enough fits. Even if you don’t believe in an antichrist, the fact that so much lines up with the LITERAL worst possible being on earth should be alarming.

Yes, that’s why I have no arguments against the “no jobs” part.

ve never been to a rural area of the country, have you?

I’ve lived in them almost exclusively.

Assuming you spend $10 on avocado toast every day, as well as $75 on eating out for every meal, $20 for Starbucks, and ALSO assuming you have $150 worth of monthly subscriptions:

It will take you 25 years to save one million dollars. That’s assuming you never get sick, never lose a job, never need to buy a car or have major repairs, or basically any kind of surprise expense or setback that could wipe out savings.

To be the richest person on earth, you would need to save that money every year for over 6 MILLION YEARS

If it’s boring, then so are you. There’s plenty to do in the country, just not much that involves “going to crowded places and spending ridiculous amounts of money on things that would be 20x cheaper at a regular store”

No argument on anything else though…

Lmao I’m not changing it.

EATING. Not rating.

Thanks to how history is being recorded, there’s no chance that he will be forgotten until civilization collapses.

I wouldn’t want history to actually forget any shitty person (or good person) because that makes it way easier for someone with similar ideals to take power again.

It’s more the sentiment.

I have a metaphorical bucket of piss just for Margaret Thatcher. ²⁶⁺⁶⁼¹

Life is one endless torment after another, soooooooo…

I can’t wait until Mccarthy has his final death and nobody remembers him anymore…

I remember reading all about how Springfield was covered in illegal immigrants burning businesses and homes, robbing trash cans, rating babies and kidnapping cats.

Some of that might be mixed up, but the again so was I considering I thought it looked rather pleasant with tons of people having fun outside as I rode my bike around for hours literally the same day I read the posts

Clearly the shady criminal underbelly is just cleverly concealed and the residents all work together to cover up the crimes that happen to them.

Then the friends I was biking with started getting flyers from various hate groups shoved into their mail telling them “immigrants and negroids aren’t welcome”

MAGAts sure do make the country a place I want to live in filled with hate, misery, and death…

Comments like this are one of a few things.

Bad faith, and useful idiots intentionally trying to keep people from wanting to go out and vote, which only helps MAGAts.

And dumbass, blind as shit privileged people who think nothing has changed in the last decade because you’re simply not part of the target groups yet.

Life is so much worse for so many people because of Trump and to pretend like it wouldn’t get worse with a second presidency (you know, the one where they intend to destroy democracy and the voting process and have said as much and have documents detailing how they plan to do it) is simply idiotic.
