Americans when doing something American: “What are we, Russia?”

I’m often extremely frustrated with liberals, but I can’t really hate them, at least not the regular non-politician types. Trump’s victory has put many liberals in a state of despair and anger and I understand that perfectly well, but their anger is often misdirected. Some are taking the election loss to mean that they need to move further right. The consultants and newspaper opinion writers, etc. do a lot to legitimize this point of view, and it’s a shame. Propaganda works, and we’re not immune to it. I feel I have more to gain by treating these liberals with respect and compassion. (I don’t always succeed, though!)

There are some liberals I can’t stand, mostly politicians and consultants. I definitely hate the openly misanthropic right wing people more, and there are a lot more of them.

SMH TBH, fam. You all should be more respectful when talking about our betters. These genius men work so hard to create the world we live in and they are generous enough to share it with all of us, but you ingrates call them “egg creature,” “freak,” and “pedophile.”

Uh, Mr. Sanders, did you consider that the working class loves using slurs at work?

I don’t think it’s that at all. I think it’s more to signal that it’s okay to be a racist piece of shit.

These people can’t stop shadowboxing with people who supposedly withheld their votes. It’s weird. How many people who otherwise would have voted for Kamala stayed home because of their ongoing support of the genocide in Gaza? Do we even know? And if it was the decisive issue causing the Democratic defeat, what is the political lesson learned?

I can’t help but feel this understandable anger is completely misdirected. Or, maybe they support what is going on in Gaza and they’re annoyed that a critical part of their voting coalition felt otherwise?

Lol, “difficult decisions.”

It was always against the rules to do that. Nothing changed, except (from what I heard, I don’t use Reddit anymore so correct me if I’m wrong) mods stopped enforcing the rule with regards to Musk, Musk put the spotlight on it, and Reddit (a shitty corporation trying desperately to be profitable) couldn’t really do anything but enforce the rule.

It is true that Huffman is an asshole and probably likes the guy, but if it was some other public figure I don’t think the outcome would be different.

Ghost has been working on adding activitypub support. They just added the ability to “unfollow” in their work in progress implementation, for example.

These were always a terrible value. Just emulate them.

I have this one and of is surprisingly good for the money. I also have a keychron recommended by many others, and can also vouch for that.

I am the crack head.

Another way to tell the difference is tasting them

It’s actually the best food ever made

I think it’s because it’s work. Its hard to have any positive feelings toward a tool used primarily to talk to annoying coworkers and bosses. It doesn’t matter how good it bad it is.

I think it would be considered non-productive labor in the Marxist sense.

Good

Right, and for me personally that’s fine. I respect that others have different requirements or desires in that regard.

You might already know this, but you can use a Kagi without logging in on private tabs using a “session link” that looks like https://kagi.com/search?token=[LONG TOKEN HERE]. (Of course, this session link is not perfectly anonymous because the token is presumably tied to your account.)
