  • Your post reminded me of the saying (paraphrasing from memory) “to every complicated problem there is an answer that is easy, simple, and wrong.”

    Everyone bemoans government inefficiency and slowness without understanding that “that’s the point”. Legislation in a democracy is hard and compromise is necessary. The slowness is a feature not a bug. Yes it means some good things will be delayed, or not implemented as well as some may like, but a lot of bad shit is avoided as well.





  • What exactly is the point you were referring to, that I and others seem to be missing?

    Blessed be - somebody actually asking for clarification before chiding me.

    The number of times I’ve been called a “genocide supporter” or “Nazi” on Lemmy for simply saying that Kamala would have been a better choice than Trump is f’ing ridiculous. Or that “yes Nazis have freedom of speech” also gets me called a Nazi. If I hear the ridiculous “Nazi Bar” story one more time I’ll lose it.

    Anyone disagreeing with leftist ideals EVEN WHILE AGREEING IN SPIRIT is called a Nazi on here all the time. The word is losing all meaning.
