Eugene V. Debs' Ghost

My grandfather was in the Navy on the pacific theater. Japanese fascists, German fascists, Italian fascists, all died the same way.

Kick ass! I’m all for more Fediverse stuff getting popular, and if this has any competition, just means more features will be added across all of them.

I was about to comment this. The American National Socialist group had massive rallies, if we never got involved with WW2, we’d probably be massive friends with Hitler and use his policies as a springboard.

Hitler was influenced by America’s mistreatment of natives and black people for his solutions to the “Jewish question”. We would have probably agreed if he was born in Mississippi and not Austria.

If down votes were votes, maybe Harris would have won in the swing states, and not California where your vote literally didn’t impact anything, except local elections.

Don’t let them gaslight you into thinking that you somehow personally swayed every swing state to Trump’s fascism, while they stick their head in the sand of how Harris lost and why.

Theoretically, if time travel is real in 2987, and it’s only for the 0.0001% of the rich, there’s nothing to say that in 3145 that some dude got a cheap mass market edition, shipped it back to our time, and from the technology is rapidly made across all space and time.

Once a time machine is invented in its worst state possible, and it works enough to send information backwards, the technology is basically instantly better and perfected, because some scientist from 1864 got the memo and worked on the math, some engineer from 2020 worked on the blueprints, and so on.

The information being send back is what allows the time machine itself to become instantly perfected, but probably the timeline where it was invented no longer exists, and creates a bootstrap paradox.

I wasn’t born until 97, so you reasonably had a head start. I only noticed I was a minority group once I reached sexual maturity, and then more things to make me “othered” later in life.

Are you aware you’re on an anarchist instance?

I’ve been through this bullshit enough times to have learned the pattern

Started paying attenion since 2012, could vote in 2016. I know the pattern too well, the gaslighting doesn’t work anymore.

And I await the apologists to come out and tell me how he had to do it this way, they only had a super majority for a few weeks. Sure if the republicans have the slimmest majority they rewrite the tax codes and give away trillions to the wealthiest, and if they are in the minority they still somehow get their policies passed. But when democrats have power, well you see, government takes time. They can’t possibly just have the bill ready and call for a vote, you see, that’s just not how it works.

Every single time!

I still find it frustrating to hear this line every single time. Like somehow every single member of congress during that time was hyper focused on the ACA bill, couldn’t have pushed for their own legislation to be pushed forward.

I’ve had plenty of wake up calls, and every time I do, someone calls me weird for the dog whistles becoming fog horns.
